ate feature in the market. American

however, in good demand. On the Pacific

put up money for her devorce proceed
ings. OF course the latter was not do
ing this disinterestedly.
In fact, the woman in the case had
promised to marry him as soon as the
divorce was procured, so he gave her
all his earnings and waited for the hap
py day. Last Thursday the woman's
husband came to town.
The tedner words, or the persuasion
which he used, will w be known,
for early next morning, before the hus-
band-to-be was up, the couple eloped
to De Lamar. Since the divorce vas
not settled, they dill not have to wait
for the inconvenience IL visiting a min
lister.
That is how the couple are again en-
joying a honeymoon, and that is also
why a man from the Emerald isle has
lost his prospective bride and also his
money.
