A PINE CREEK
ELOPEMENT
Miss Agnes Stedman and
Joseph Gray Leave for
Parts Unknown.
Mr.. Stedmap Doing His Utmost
to Prevent Marriage.

The citizens of Pine Creek were con-
siderably surprised Tuesday when it be-
came known that two we'll known parties
of that place had eloped. Miss Agnes
Stedman of American City, and Joseph
Gray of Apex had left Tuesday morn
ing with the intention of getting mar
ried. Miss Stedman's father after hear
ing of their departure, Immediately be-
gan telephoning everywhere in the hopes
of finding trace of the runaway couple
and preventing the marriage. No trace
has as yet been found of them.
Captain Stedman and his family, con-
sisting of daughter and son and the
sons wife, came to American City come
two years ago from Boston, Mass. The
captain had some prospects there, which
he wished to develop, and he fitted up
splendid cabin for living purposes. Here
they met many strangers, among them
being Joe Gray. Miss Agnes took great
liking to Gray, and he fell madly in love
with the beautiful young girl. Their
love ran very smooth for quite while,
and until Capt. Stedman noticed it, who
then forbade Gray visiting the house.
This did not worry the lovers, as Miss
Agnes would go walking, horseback rid
ing or picking flowers and would always
meet her sweetheart before returning
home. Tuesday morning she left the
house on horseback and meeting Gray,
who was also horseback, they both rode
in the direction of Boulder Park, and it
is presumed they have gone to Middle
Park.
Miss Stedman is a young, beautiful
ANU accornplIsucu sur, UvruB vIIIy cl6rs--
teen years Of age, and is reported to be
heiress to 100000.
Mr.. Gray was formerly one OF the pro-
prietors OF stage line between Central
City and Apex, but Of late has been pros
pecting near Apex.

the state of Washington to the recent
mining congress in Milwaukee, Wiscon-
sin, writes to the Rocky Mountain News
to take exception to the remarks of J. d.
Caldron in an interview published after
the latter's return from the gathering.
He says that it was not true that $4,000
was spent in entertaining the delegates,
but that only 5000 was SO used. Mr..
Caldron's statement that he and Colonel
Montgomery were the only delegates
present from Colorado is another matter
that otfends Mr. Thompson, as he says
Colorado cast her maximum ten votes in
the election of officers. He also says
there were 400 registered delegates in
stead of only 10, and he objects strenu-
ously to the assertion that the body was
made up chiefly of wild cat mining men,
declaring that many of the delegates
were heavily interested in legitimate
mining enterprises. Instead of being
failure, he insists the congress was sue

Supreme Court Denies FIck's Motion for
Rehearing.

Tuesday afternoon last the Supreme
Court OF Colorado denied the motion Of
Fick's attorneys for reheariDg in the
case OF Crook VS.. Flick, which is the con-
test case for the county commissioner Of
the third district.
Mr.. Flick was given tho certificate of
election by the judges, owing to the fact
that the votes of the 4th precinct, which
would have elected Crook, were not on
hand and could not be counted. They
were afterwards found to be in the bal
lot box, where they were placed by mis-
take. The electoral board must issue
certificates on the votes on hand, and
having no right to open ballot box in
search of missing pool book, were com
PEELED to give the certificate to Flick.
Mr.. Flick yesterday vacated the seat
filed by him since January last, and as
soon as his bond is accepted Mr.. Crook
will take the office.
