Walter Palmer and Millie Snowdon
a 15 Year-old Daughter of
Isaac Snowdon, are the
Guilty Pair.
A story of love is often a puzzling
thing; and this it truly is in a case
oi elopement, which occurred on
Thursday, and in which two young
people of Xebraska City took the
leading parts.
Walter Palmer and Millie Snow
don are the names of the two young
people, who have lived in this city
for some time, and been regarded
generally as quiet a ml through going
Miss Snowdon, is a daughter of Mr,
and Mrs. Isaac Snowdon who live in
Kearney, is only about fifteen years
old and a student in the first grade
of the high school. Young Palmer
has been employed for some time
at the B. A M. yards, and was on the
whole an honest and hard working
fellow, He is only about eighteen
ears old, however. His parents are
aid to live in Plattsmouth from
whence lie came some time ago.
On Thursday young Miss Snow
don told her mother she wished to
go over to a friend's house to spend
the night. Consent was readily
gained and the girl started away
from her home without any bag
gage whatever. By a preconcerted
plan she met young I 'aimer and the
guilty pair at once took the after
noon train for the south.
The next Mrs. Snowdon heard of
her daughter was a letter ehe re
ceived yesterday from her. In it
the thoughtless daughter told how
she had eloped with young Palmer,
that she loved him, and that they
were already united in marriage.
They were then iu Missouri, in just
what part she did not say; but tjie
added that it would be useless to
follow her.
The letter was a cruel blow to the
mother, and ever since she has been
prostrated with grief. Millie was
her only daughter, nnd it would
seem that she had little intention of
returning to her home. However,
Palmer has small means for taking
care of a wife, and the truant
children may be expected to return
before long and ask forgiveness.

Double Birthday Celebration.
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Brantner
old and respected citizens of Platts
inouth, were central figures of a
pleasant gathering at their home
on North Ninth street Saturday
night. The occasion was the cele
bration of the 7ith and 07th birth
day anniversaries of Mr. and Mrs
Brantner, respectively. The affair
was planned by the immediate rel
ativesof the old couple and success
fully executed thus: Mr. B. works
daily in the employ of the B. & L,
and was, of course, properly dis
posed of till evening; but next in
order was to dispose of the wife foi
the day, so that necessary prepara
tions could be made for the recep
tion of the guests without her sus
picioning anything out of the gen
eral order. It was arranged with
Mr. Khun Parmele, who, by the way,
is the prince of righteous schemers,
to have her spend the day with the
family of the said prince (V). With
much difficulty she was persuaded
to leave her household duties for
the fatal visit. By the occuirance
of divers and sundry unavoidable (?)
accidents, and much to the discom
fiture of the old lady, Mr. P. did not
get her back home again until the
late hour of 8 p. m., when, to add to
her misfortunes, Mrs. B. found that
a large assembly of her neighbors
and friends had taken possession
of her home. The surprise was so
complete that she did not even
know the husband beside whom
sl.e had met and surmounted the
obstacles of a varied life of full
three score years.
The company, consisting of the
resident relatives, neighbors and
immediate friends of the family,
enjoyed themselves abundantly un
til 11 o'lock, when, after prayer by
their pastor and many '.congratula
tions and good wishes, they
departed.
On behalf of their posterity, Mr.
B. was presented with a handsome
suit of clothes and his wife with a
fine silk shawl and bonnet. Besides
these the guests left many appreci
ated tokens.
Among those present were:
Messrs. and Mesdames A.X.Sulli
van, M. Waybright, L. F. Britt. T.
Wilkinson, I. Searles, M. Mauzy, II.
Matizy, K. Parmele, C. W. Green, S.

To the Farmera America.
The chairman of the Russian
Fa.iiine Relief committee of the
United States has sent out the fol
lowing appeal, dated Washington,
D. C, March, W2:
it) uie farmers ol America: The
vicissutities oi climate are such iu
all countries that not even the most
favored can hope for entire immu
nity from the losses and distresses
they may entail.
To-day it is the wretched lot of
some, twenty great provinces, of ;
middle and southern Russia, hav-1
ing a population equai to nearly
one-fourth that of the whole em
pire, to suffer the horrors of famine.
Fjr successive years their oops
were scant, and last year they failed
so almost entirely that multitudes
are without food other than the re
fuse of their neighbors, fields, grain
aries, cellars and kitchens, the seed
of weeds and the bark of trees
ground and mixed with all these.
The cattle on which they had de
pended lor milk or service, and even
their horses, needed as beasts of
burden, are slain and consumed as
a means of prolonging life until re
lief shall conn- trom some ipiarter
of the globe.
Starvation alone is terrible
enough, but the (.nnine in Kussia
has been aggravated by a fierceness
fcoldr irely known in a Russian
winter, while fuel is so scarce lhat
in many ca.-cs remnants ot stubble
and the thatching of stables, mixed
with tut I and dried scrapingsof the
barnyard, afford the only means ol
warming their hovels and cooking
the mi.M'i able pittance ol food thus
gathered together.
Nor is this all Pestilence, too,
has come with all its added terrors.
Iluiieiiiig, freezing, anil beset by
f. imiue fever, tne poor peasants of
Russia demand the world's sym
pathy as it has seldom been de
manded in all h ii ma ii history.
hat is to be doner
Kiiropc iu general has been a suf
ferer from thedrotiths of '!'l anil has
little to spare. But, thank Heaven,
America has been blessed as never
before. We have millions to sell,
mil can a Iso give millions and feel
ourselves none the poorer.
lias not a good Providence made

greatest of all crisis for the salva
tion of many millions of our fellow
men in the far-away country ol a
great and friendly powcr'r
lhat America will respond iu a
signal manner who can doubt? Al
ready the City of Brotheny Love
has sent forth one steamship on its
errand of mercy, and another will
sail from New York in a few days.
But still our ships must go in like
manner, that the millions of out
stretched hands may not wait in
vain.
The farmers, the gardeners, the
fruitgrowers, the dairymen, the
stock-growers of the United States,
are among the most intelligent and
responsive of all our sixty-live mil
lions. They can each give a por
tion, either in kind or for conver
sion into other produce or money,
of all that they have so boutitifuIlT
received. Will P'cy wait for some
miracle, or will they actV
Some, thank God, have ncted al
ready. The farmers' of Iowa, Min
nesota, Xebraska, Kansas, Illinois,
Ohio, and some other states have
moved and are moving. Wheat
md rye Hour, kiln-dried cormuenl,
cured meats, and canned goods
generally are on the way to the sea
board. Hut many cargoes will be
needed ere the wants oftwenty mil
lions are met through all the
months until a new harvest.
'Therefore, whatsoever ye would
that men should do to vou, do y ou
even so unto them." There is no
higher, truer, other law. Its fulfill
ment by Americans will banish the
Ktissiau lamiite and leave it hut a
horrid dream.
The railway companies have con
sented to carry car-loads of famine
supplies to the seaboard without
charge; the owners of mills and
kiln-drying houses at Akron, Ohio,
and at Wilmington, Del., are pre
paring corn at almost no cost to the
donor, and when your gifts are
ready, if you have no other preferred
medium, application to the Red
Cross, 7:i2 Fourteenth Street, Wash

required number, that will direct
them to places of consignment on
the seaboard.
