Mount Holly Parties E1ope.

There are two unhappy homes ON Shreve
street, caused by the alleged elopement of
John Clement, a moulder, employed at
the foundry of United States Marshal
Thomas ]. Alcott, and Mrs. Pauline Cos
till, wife of John Costill. She took her
adopted daughter with her.
The clipping couple became quite int :
mate while Clement boarded with the Cos
Ills during the absence of his wife, who
made visit to her parents In Germany.
The elopement occurred ON Tuesday
after the parties had gone to Brooklyn, 10
which city Mrs. Costill and Mrs Clement
went in the morning. On Wednesday
Clement followed them, but before going
he went to the Union National Bank and
drew out several hundred dollars. 1t Is
alleged that the money belonged to his
wife, who permitted him to deposit 1t In
his name. 1t is said that she brought
quite sum with her from the old coun-
try. her parents being In good circum-
stances. Before her marriage Mrs. Glenn
ent made a success of conducting cigar
store In Philadelphia, and she purchased
her home in Mount Holly.
Clement was to have spent the Fourth
with the ladies in Brooklyn. Instead OF
doing this he met Mrs. Costill by secret
arrangement, and they went off together.
Returning home Mrs. Clement found q
note on the table. written by her husband,
who declared that he was not coming back
again. He said he had no further use fol
his wife, told her to sell the house and
do as she pleased.
Several weeks ago Costill and his wife
had trouble, and since that time she has
been living with her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Samuel Clapper, on sHulme street
During this separation Clement was with
Mrs. Costill much of the time.
1t is said that efforts will be made tc
apprehend the clippers.

1t is question whether anything is
gained in letting the visitors go to bat

bad case of stage fright or something
on that order, and if they had been al

to keep the position he first assumes
IN the box for that particular inning.

ball or two at his left hand and then
changing to hit right hand. At Merchant

man out for breaking this rule, but the

Circus COMING Tomorrow

Tomorrow is to be the red letter day
on the calender for the little boy and
big brother. 1t is circus day and that
means the grand climax to the plans
and the meditations of the past
several weeks.
According to the Forepaugh- Sells
announcement there is some instruc-
tive and entertaining amusement in
store for those who witness the un-
loading Of the circus paraphcrnalia
kFhis is said to be an education in it
| self.
The consolidated FOrepaugh- Sells
{ShoW is from the standpoint of magni-
tude one of the three great circuses
1now on the American continent and
that means that it must be a vcritabe
| moving metropolis in the amusement
line.
From the past reputation of the
circus it is only reasonable to expect
that it still carries with it some of the
| finest horses to be seen in the country
and these will all be seen to advantage
while the train is being unloadcd
And the manner i'm which the work of
| unloading and setting up camp is con-
Quoted is said to be with clocklike
precision. Every move is for pur-
pose and on account of the multitude
of things that must be done at one
| time the wheels within wheels turn
without interfering with each other.
Then, when this work is nearly COM
plcted, there will follow the monster
parade in which the spectators will be
given their first opportunity to gaze
| on all the animals and interesting
features that so to make circus
menagerie.
All of the above attractions and
| many more will be closely watched by
| the little boy and his big brother, and
it is safe to conjecture that many of
| "natcrfamilias" will also be found talk
ing advantage of the opportunity Just
| to show the children the circus"
Two performances are announced
| for tomorrow afternoon at > O'Clock.
| and again the evening at s O'Clock.
| The doors will be opened at one and
| seven o'clock allowing full hour for
| visiting the geological collection in the
menagerie.
