ROMANCE OF TWO WORLDS.
Sweethearts of Childhood Meet and
Marry in Their Old Age.


Two countries saw the beginning
and ending of the love affair of Ben-
jamin and Mrs. Milen of 122 Garden
street, Hoboken, N. ]. Fifty years ago
Mr.. Milen was 16 years and his wife,
then Margaret Terrell, was a year
younger. They both resided in the
quaint and pretty Kentish village of
Birchington, England, where their an
cestors had lived before them. From
childhood up the boy and girl had been
sweethearts, and the parents of each
locked forward to the happy day when
the two families would be united. But
a change came. The two quarreled
and parted. Pride prevented the heal
ing of the breach between them an>l
both married. Margaret became Mrs.
James Flynn and emigrated with her
husband to America. During the war
Flynn fought with an Irish regiment
and retired when peace was proclaimed
with a score of wounds and pension.
He and his wife went to live at IS Mad
ison street, Hoboken, and year ago
he died there. In the meantime Milen
and his wife also came to America.
and, as fate would have it, settled in
Hoboken, where they prospered. 1t
happened strangely enough that soon
after the death of Flynn, Mrs. Mi]en
also died. Not until after that. when
both were free again, did the old low
ers meet. Benjamin came face to face
with his Margaret in the house OF
mutual friend. Both were gray and
faded, but the light of youth leaped
into their eyes when they looked Cp-
ON each other. In the first five sec
onds of conversation, he learned that
she was a widow and she that he was
a widower. The witchery Of old as
ISOLATION and the rebrth of a love that
had never really died did the rest. They
were married on Thanksgiving day by
Justice Jaerecki of Jersey City. and
they are now as happy as pair of
young turtle doves in their pretty
home

the druggists to be stuffed. While
they were discussing the price of the

sued the druggist for filching the frog.

WASHINGTON special says efforts
are still being made on the part of sew
eral of the members of the Kentucky
delegation to secure a Brigadier Gen.
eralship or two for the State, but
there still seems to be little chance.
Every time a Kentuckian calls at the
White House, whether he be Demo
crat or Republican, he is reminded of
the appointments of Breckenridge and
Bacon. From what can be learned,
the case of Adj. Gen. Dan Collier seems
to be blocked, owing to trifiing cause
1t is said that Senator Deboe has been
urged by strong class of Kentucky
Republicans not to lose any sleep over
the appointment of Collier, for if the
General were to be appointed the SEN
ator's friend, Assistant Adj. General
Forester, might become Adj. General,
This is thought to be a very potent ar.
gument with the Senator against the
appointment of Collier, and a promi.

night that it was the one thing stand

ment. Congressman Dawson is still
