MARRIAGE OPPOSED
SOCIETY GIRL ELOPES
AmabeI Jordan Nippert Weds Helm
rich Won Kempf NurSery1nan.

Amabel Jordan Eippert Weds Helm
rich Won Kempf, EurSeryman.
San Francisco. - Breasting family
opposition. Amabel Jordan Nippert,
stepdaughter of P. M. Nippert, presi-
dent of the Fidelity and Deposit com
pany Of Maryland, colonel of the ma
tional guard and former member Of
the governors staff, eloped and was
married to Heinrich Elder Won
Kehpf, owned of the Pacific Nursery
at Colma.
The ceremony was performed in
Grace Pro-Cathedral by Dean ]. Will
mer Gresham amid the Easter deco
rations which still remained in the
church.
The reason of the elopement, it is
authoritatively learned, was opposi-
ton on the part of Mrs. Nippert, who
| believed that her daughter wound en-
danger her social standing if she
| married a man in the nursery bus-
ness, Notwithstanding he is we'll to-
! do.
When called on the telephone Mrs
! Nippert strenuously denied that her
| daughter was married. or that she
was even engaged. She secuted the
idea of an elopement, saying that her
daughter was not even keeping COM
pany with any man; also that she liv-
ed at home, and had been in the
house but short time before.
Called a few minutes later, how
ever and asked is she knew a man
by the name of Won Kempf she said
she did. Told that her daughter was
married to Won Kempf, she said:
You are not going to give me any
news; l knew it all the time. She
has been married for a long time"
Questioned as to the date of the
marriage, she finally said it was last
! Tuesday
1t is known that as a matter of fact
Mrs. Nippert was notified of the mar.
riage shortly after the ceremony. She
forgave her daughter, and has ac.
cepted her son-in-law into her home

MARYLAND HAS LOW
MINE DEATH RATE
Only Thirteen Coal Workers
Were Killed During 1912.
Labor Troubles Were Few.

Maryland's coal production in 1912
was 4,s64.09s short tons, an increase
over the previous year of 27s.243 tons.
The coal production of this State has
been fairly constant for fifteen years,
varying but little.
The coal deposits of Maryland are
confined to a small area in the two
western counties of the State, Allegany
and Garrett. Most Of the production in
the past has been made in the Georges
creek basin, which. in Allegany county,
contains a detached portion Of the Pitts
burgh bed known generally as the
Maryland big VEIN This bed has
been worked for nearly hundred years,
and is now approaching exhaustion.
The greater prominence Of this basin
as the source of Maryland's coal pro-
duct has given the name Georges
Creek" to most Of the coal shipped
from the State. Georges creek coal has
a high reputation as steam and black,
smith fuel. The gradual exhaustion of
the big vein has led to the exploitation
of some of the smaller beds In the
Georges creek basin, and many compan-
les that formerly worked the big vein
only are now mining the thinner beds
either independently or in conjunction
with the big vein.
The total amount Of coal recoverable
from the numerous small beds far ex-
ceeds the original contents of the big
vein. but they can not be so cheaply
wrked. and it appears doubtful II. in
the annual production, they will do more
than make up the deficiency caused by
the exhaustion of the big vein.

The United States Bureau of Mines
reports a total of only thirteen mer
/ killed in the coal mines of Maryland
| in 1912. a decrease of two from 1911
when there were fewer men employed
and fewer tons mined. Maryland alsc
presents an excellent record in regard
| to labor troubles, of which there were
only three in 1912. the longest one
lasting but twelve days. No strike Of
any kind was reported in either 1910 ol
lsi1. Most of the mines are operated
| ten hours a day.
