Telephone Message from New

Callahan Wedding.
Special 10 the EVENING NEWS.


Jamesburg, Sept. "a telephone
message last night from New
York city, supposed to come from
willard Okerson, of Plainsboro and
intended for Mrs. Edward Callahan,
of Hooker street, was not delivered
to that person but was intercepted by
her daughter and at once excitement
was on at the Callahan house.
1t contained the intelligence that
the young daughter, Miss Lizzie Cal
lahan, had eloped with the Okerson
youth and after spending the day at
Coney Island had decided to become
man and wife. This they speedily
did and thought it nice to let the
anxious parents know of their hap
piness. Anyway it did not have the
desired effect on this end of the wire
and what Okerson was not told Is
not worth while repeating, accord
ing to Miss Julia Riley, who did the
talking over the phone.

They returned later when the elder

necessary papers. Sunday they left

it was while strolling along the

the romantic idea of an elopement
struck the young couple and away
they went for the clergyman. Who

also popular miss among her set
and is just eighteen and good look
ing.
When Mrs. Callahan was seen last
night all she would say was that the
reporter had better see some one else
as the whole town seemed to know
more about it than she did. When
questioned as to the truthfulness of
the report she said a phone message
had been received and further was
unable to enlighten the friends of
the couple in town.
