ECHO WOMAN LEFT

According to reports from Echo
and Portland, Mrs. Bert Stoffle of the
former place, has new version to
the song waiting at the Church" AS
sung by her it is waiting in the ho-

According to these same reports
Bert Stoffle left his wife sitting in
the parlor of the Imperial hotel in
Portland, while he went out and drew
on his bank account in Echo for $1,000
and took the afternoon train for Cali
fornia. Where he is now, no one
knows.
Mrs. Stoffle is said to have waited
at the hotel for his return throughout
the long afternoon of last Tuesday and

his money from the Echo bank and
taken an afternoon train for the
South. She is still in Portland, unde-

made song stuff for the immortal
bards 1t involves a picturesque horse
tanner a hero-worshipping maiden, a
Tilted sister, and an irate father, with
the chubby love god and his magic ar
rows more or less in evidence.
The affair began over two years
ago when the first mentioned quit his
job at "skinning six and made his
way to Portland to call upon a lady
with whom he was infatuated to
certain extent. Driving up to the
home place, unannounced, he was dis
appointed to find the girl of his
dreams absent, but met a younger
sister whom he induced to occupy the
other seat in the buggy. Thus did
Cupid begin the weaving of the mesh
which was soon to entangle them be-
yond the possibility Of extrication.
That first ride was followed by
second, and a third, and others in
rapid succession. The sister was for
gotten and soon vanished from the
mind and heart of the dashing cow
boy. The old love was eclipsed by
the new and when Inman went back to
the range the bethrothal was made
and he took with him promise and
sweet remembrances.
Two years passed by and the two
did not meet again but both still re-
manned true. There might have been
no immediate elimination had not the
young lady noticed in the papers the
achievements of her rough-rider lover
at the Roundup, and, her heart filled
with pride. she sent him notice of her
intention of joining him at once. This
is the moment at which the father
plays his part in the drama. Learn
ing of her proposed flight, he made
| forcible seizure of her trunk, clothes
and cash. However he had yet to
learn that where there's a will there's
way" and likewise that love laughs
at obstacles, for. with the assistance
of rain coat and a pawn shop, the
lady secured the necessary wherewith-
al to secure her passage to Pendleton
and Joined her swain yesterday MORN
ing.
Attired in all the trappings of a
story book cowboy and cowgirl, the
couple mounted their steeds and, like
Shy Ann and her lover of the song,
dashed through the streets and up to
the Methodist parsonage where Rev,
Nathan Evans performed the cere-
mony which formally embarked them
upon the sea of conjugal felicity.
They will leave tomorrow on a
horseback honeymoon trip to Prime
vile and the Three Sisters. but prom
