BOY AND GIRL ARE MARRIED.
Application for Warrant Brings
Romance to Light.

In the application for a warrant yester.
day came to light the romance Of Alfred
Shenton, 10 years old. and Miss Lizzie Co
burn, 10 years old. of No. 1913 Wash street.
1t is said that Shenton was married Under
the name of Alfred Burke. The records ae
the Recorders office show that license
was issued to Lizzie Coburn Of No. 118
Wash street and Alfred Burke Of No. 1913
Wash street.
A man who gave his name As John Burke
of No. 1909 Franklin avenue and who
claimed to be brother Of Alfred Burke
called at the marriage license office and
swore that Burke was q years old. Mrs.
Shenton says she learned that the man was
Sandy Moore. and she called at the Four
Courts to apply for a warrant against him.
She lives. at No 4o5 Morgan street Alfred
who works in a carriage factory, was her
only support. Acting Assistant Prosecute
ing Attorney Fickeissen took the case un-
der advisement.
Mrs. Shenton has not learned positively
whether her son was married. but several
neighbors so informed her. When she called
at the Coburn home she was informed Of
the wedding. Mrs. Coburn said she OPP
posed the marriage as much as Mrs. Shen-
ton. but she was powerless to prevent 1t.
Neither Miss Coburn nor Alfred Shentoo
has been home snce Saturday.
