ONLY AN ELOPEMENT.
ROMANCE OF A COUPLE VINO WE'RE
mARHiIED HERE SATURDAY.
Mother Thought Her Daughter Had
Been kidnapped White Police
Hunted Kidaappers the Compile
Were Quietly Welded,

AT the Lutheran parsonage in this
city last Saturday Miss Fannie Olsen,
of Nippon. W. Va, became the bride
of Mr. George Carter, of Front
Royal, Va. When KEY. Trump was
tieing the knot he had no idea that
he was officiating III the elimination
of an interesting and exciting romance
and II was published ms a quiet
wedding.
On Saturday the police Of a hall
dozen towns, including Winchester,
Charlestown. Berryyilie, Martinsburg
and Hagerstown were aksed to be on
the lookout for three bold, had men,
who Mrs. Olsen said, had forcibly
stolen her daughter, against the lat
ter's will and despite her struggles to
free herself from their clutches.
According to Mrs. 0lsen's version
of the affair Carter was discarded
lover of Miss Olsen S. The latter had
refused to have anything to do with
him. On Saturday morning, Mrs.
Olsen says her daughter started out
walking to visit o relative living
about mile from Rippon. On the
road she met Garter and two other
men who forced the girl into a car
riage and drove off.
The news of the alleged kidnapping
caused sensation in the neighbor-
hood and in few minutes the wires
were hot telling the police in the var-
ious towns to keep lookout for the
kldnaDpers. Despite the official vigil
lance the party managed to elude cap
ture, bus from subsequent develop
ments, it seems that it was not case
of abduction but an enjoyment III
which the roadside meeting was a
prearranged part OF the program. So
far from being rejected sutton Mr.
Garter was an accepted lover, and the
girls am aren't dislike for him was
merely simulated IN order the better
to carry out the elopenent plans.
The couple came TO M tinsburg
where they were seen on the street
in company with an elderly gentle
man and lady. The groom secured
a marriage license by stating that
the bride was Miss Austin n
native of Berkeley county, W. Va J,
and was 81 years of age Her
mother says she is native OF and
resident of jefferson county, W. Va,
and is only l6 years of age.
Armed with the license the couple
went TO the parsonage of the Lutheran
church and were married late Satur-
day afternoon by Rev. Chas s.
TRUMP Since the ceremony the
couple have kept their whereabout a
secret.

Mr.. and Mrs. Nimmo Get
Square With the Hired
Girl for Once.

And the Culprit Had Mysteries

of Munching Gum
Drops.

Miss Annie Payne, a young girl in the
employ of Mr. and Mrs. William J. MINI
! mo, of No. 562 Grove street, took the in-
FAINT girl of her mistress out yesterday af-
ternoon in its carriage. The display of
holiday novelties on Newark avenue drew
Miss Payne to the heart of that thor
oughfare. She left the carriage and child
on the curb while she went into a candy
store near Grove street
While she was engaged at the counter
Mr.. and Mrs. Nimmo came along. and
seeing their child and its carriage took
them both along, so that when Miss
Payne emerged from the store her charge
was gone and her first thought was of q
kidnapper. She ran UP and down the
street excitedly inquiring of everyone
she met if they had seen the baby and
carriage. In very short time she had
wrought herself up to state of hys-
terra and had to be supported by some
kind hearted ladies who had great diff
Guilty in getting her calm enough to tell
the story. AS soon as she had given voice
to her fears. a policeman was called and
Police Headquarters communicated with.
A general alarm was sent out and there
was a great scurrying of policemen
They had gotten description of Mr..
and Mrs. Nimmo as the kidnappers, and
were vainly searching for the worthy
couple while they We're at home cooling
over the kidnapped" child. Miss Payne
ran about the city until she was almost
exhausted. Then she went home and
broken-heartedly told Mrs. Nimmo of the
loss of the child and carriage In the
telling she again became so hysterical
that remedies were necessary.
Still bent on having all the fun possi-
BILE out of the joke. Mrs. Nimmo, after
quieting the nurse, said
Never mind. We will find her. Now
you go into the parlor and rest your

The girl followed her mistress's direc-
tions and in the parlor she came upon
the child laughing and perfectly happy
in the possession of kitten. The kitten
was chased and the child almost smoth-
cred with caresses.
Annie has made up her mind that 1t is
not worth while hanging up her stocking
this Christmas.

OUR COTTON WILL Be NEEDED

The decline in cotton prices the last
three weeks, amounting to about one
cent per pound, is naturally a disap-
pOintment to growers, yet there is no
note of real, encouragement says the
Farm and Home. The downturn is due
largely to bearish spectators in for
eign markets, who eXaggerate the sit
uation and claim more for our south
ern crop volume than can be realized.
The movement from first hands is
liberal, as is to be expected, at this
time Of year. Yet conservative Opin-
ion points to an ultimate yield of less
than IL 900, 900 bales rather than more.
What is of still greater Importance,
our great staple will all be needed.
There is industrial depression in Ger
many, but this means increased actiyi-
ties at spinning centers in England
and the United States. The cOnsump-
tive demand for cotton goods should
prove at least a normal in the old
world, and better than that here at
home where there is general prosperity
among all classes. The southern cot
ton spinners' association, IN annual
convention at Atlanta this week, is
wisely taking up in earnest the ques-
ton of increasing our foreign outlet
for American-made goods.
