IN SHORT SKIRTS
THIS GIRL ELOPES
Rides Sixty Miles in an
Open Carriage.

NORFOLK, Va, Jan. 2o.-Cecile
Beale, the sixteen-year-o1d daughter of
Mrs. Belle BeaIe, the wealthy widow
of w. L. Beale, was stolen from the
home of her grandfather, Samuel Y.
Browne IN Portsmouth, by Rush Wat
kins,o aged twenty-four, with whom the
girl started in an open conveyance for
Elizabeth City, N c., sixty miles south
of here.
It is believed the well-laid plans of
the couple carried without hitch, and
that notwithstanding the efforts which
the mother of the girl made all day to
stop the marriage the couple have been
made man and wife
On Way Home.
Unconfirmed reports received from
married by a county Justice of the peace
and are on the way home TO ask the
forgiveness OF Mrs Beale, which the
latter declares they will never receive.
The girls mother, who learned by
accident Of the plans of the couple.
thought she had thwarted them when
she sent her daughter to the home of
girl was believed TO be well out of the
reach Of young Watkins on the third
floor OF the Browne residence.
How the girl ever got out of the
entire family.
Her absence was not discovered I'M
til morning.
License Taken Out.
When the Beale family telegraphed
to Elizabeth City to stop the marriage
they were informed that a license had
been procured at 1870 a. m, and that
the couple had evidently been married
by that time.
It Is thought that the friend who got
the license drove out from Elizabeth
City to avoid any police complications,
and meeting the clippers, guided them
TO the residence of a nearby magis-
trate, who married them.
Young Rush came here some time ago
from the Natural Bridge of Virginia,
and is the manager at Portsmouth OF a
large barrel factory owned by the
mother of the girl in the case. The
Beale girl wore short skirts and was
attending the grammar school

PROMINENT M. D.
MysteriOusly Missing
From His Home.

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, June l7.-Dr.
Joe Shemwell, a prominent physician
of Bumpus Mill, in Stewart county,
has created a sensation by his disap-
pearance. He left home about two
weeks ago and has never been heard
from. He left telling his wife that
he was going to Dawson Springs, but
she received a letter from him sew
eral days afterward saying that he
was going to leave the country, and
maybe the United States. He told
her he had made arrangements for
her and her child to be cared for.
Upon investigation it was found
that he had placed $4,000 to her
credit in bank at Dover, He was
worth between $25, 900 and 100000,
and is supposed to have that amount
with him, less the money left his
wife and child. He had evidently
been preparing for his departure, as
he had disposed of all his real estate
and made other arrangements.

The approaching meeting Of the
Kentucky Educational Association at
Mammoth Cave promises to be a
record-breaker. The association

lasts three days There will be large
bodies of teachers from all adjoining

ter schools and better equipment;
longer terms and larger salaries.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inhamed condition Of the mucous
lining Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result, and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the
mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
