" A GAY , GIDDY GIRL .Elopes and , Marries a Main Who Turna Out to be Worthless-She Then Gets Reckless and Goes from Bad to Worse. CourUr-Journal. Considerable of a sensation , involv ing a very well-known young man and woman , has just developed in the East end , in the breaking up of an en gagement between tlio parties , the woman now being in Cincinnati , preparing - paring her outfit and everything for the wedding. To give the full partic ulars of the affair , an incident that pc- curred in 1870 must bo given , in which the same woman , then very young , was concerned. The young couple STOLE AWAY TO JEFFBKSONVILLE , where they were quietly married. 'Tho marriage created a great sensa tion , and the girl's father was furious. The young couple thought ho would finally take his daughter back to his heart , but ho never relented , and died .several years ago without recognizing her , and out her oil' without n dollar. Soon after their marriage they remov ed to Ohio , where they lived for some time. The girl soon found that her -affections had been sadly misplaced , and her husband proved to bo utterly worthless , and waa finally nrrostod for robbury and sent to the penitentiary , whore ho now is. His wife waa near ly heart-broken by this blow , and re turned to Louiavillo , leaving her little child up there. She soon recovered , however , and obtained a divorce fromhor nusband. Her usual spirits gradually cumo back to her , and she Boomed to soon forgot her unfortunate inafriugo and ventured out in society 'again ' , going in rather recklessly , She was handsome , well educated and ac- compliahcd , and had quite a number of admjn < rB. She became very inti mate with a young man in this city , who appeared greatly infatuated with her and paid her considerable atten tion. The girl finally yielded to his propositions in a moment of weakness , and the young man then abandoned her. Shothon went to Lexington , Ky. . wiiorosho remained some time , and was UELIVEIIKI ) OP A CHILI ) . She Btayed there some time and took care of the child , the people bo lieving that she was married. She left the child with some friends and came back homo , where no ono but n few friends , who hid thy matter know of what had happened. Experience porionco did not prove a very valua bio teacher in her case , and she BOOI returned to her old habita. A num ber of young men in the city wont to seohorund every possible attontioi was paid hor. She wont to Cincinnati some time afterward , whore she entered tored society and was considered rjuito a hello. While in Cincinnati she once moro became a mother , and the fact becoming known slip left the city and caiio back to Louisville , concealing tor disgrace from her friends. She low began to roalir.o the folly of her : ourso , nnd determined to marry and ottlo down , She took up her resi dence with n rolitivo on Washington street , near Shelby where she waited intiontly for the right man to arrivo. Her wealthy admirers , however , FOUOI1T UATHF.1l HI1Y OF IIF.U , ind she had to be contented with overs of a lower standing. She inally became acquainted with n wing mechanic , who fell desporatily n love with her. Ho immediately : ommonccd paying her attentions , and finally became engaged to many 1mr. Some friends of the young man taving by some moans or ether _ got an inkling of her exploits in Losing- .on nnd Cincinnati , determined to nvestigato. A few days ngo the , 'oung lady left for Cincinna'i , o prepare for the wedding , and , -cstorday tlio all'air cimo to n climax when a full knowledge of the wo- lun'a character wns obtained nnd the 'act became known that she was the iiother of three children. The friends of the young man. who had so inter ested them in his behalf , wont to him with the full story of her life , and un- bided the scheme that had boon so carefully planned to xlraw him into a narringo. Ho at once resolved to > roak the engagement up and will nt once inform the woman that ho knows of her character. An interesting scene is looked for when this occurs. Rothschild Marrlngos. 'Mlail ( > lihla | l'rcs.1. By the tonns of a fnnnly compact nado in Frankfort in 1830 , sons of the Rothschild family wore never to narry outside tno narrow circle of consanguinity. Leopold , son of Lionel , was the firnt to depart from this com pact , but ho married as much nionoy is ho possessed , the Perugias being to Trieste and the east what the lloths- childs are to western Europe. Mar riages in the Rothschild family are stately in ceremonial and the subject ot as much talk as royal matches. Intermarriage with very near relatives is n recognized Hebrew cus tom , and oven before the compact of Frankfort was an almost invariable [ iractico among tluao millionnairo kinsmen. Ansolim , the first head of tlio Frankfort house , married hia licce , the eldest daughter of Nathan ; James , the head of the Paris house , narried hia brother Solomon's daugh- ; er. Nathan , however , married out side the family , but ho married moro nillions than ho had then made. His astonishing success in London excited .ho fear and astonishment of a compatriot , Levi Cohen , one of the then potentates of the exchange. Cohen suggested a union of the families , but niter the narriago became alarmed nt the ap parently desperate venture of his son- n-law. He protested with the arch- speculator , but received for his pains Jio characteristic vaunt : "You have jivon mo but ono of your daughters ; t would have been a good stroke of Business to have given mo them all , for they would have died a great deal richer than they will ever be. " Ho was u miser to the last , and with all lis millions , lived like a successful re tail grocer. ' A Crosi Baby. Nothing is so conducive to a man's remaining a bachelor as stopping for ono night at the house of a married [ riend and being kept awake for five or six hours by the crying of a cross baby. All cross and crying babies need only Hop Bitters to make them well and smiling. Young man , remember - member thisT Traveler. feb4-w2t A LIBERAL OFFER. For the post two years the publish ers of this paper have given to the subscribers of THE WEEKLY BEE the best line of premiums as inducements to subscription which have ever boon offered by any nowspapcr in the coun try. The plan has proved a success. It has given universal satisfaction to the patrons of the paper , and has in creased the subscription list to n de gree far above the expectations of its publishers. Many patrons of THE DAILY BEE have asked why wo do not offer them the same inducements hold out to sub scribers of THE WEEKLY BEE. In response - sponso to the inquiry wo make the following offer : Each subscriber to THE DAILY BEE who pays his arrears of subscription and remits prepayment ment for six months and every now subscriber who remits pro-payment for six months will bo entitled to ono of the premiums mentioned in our list. These premiums will bo dis tributed in the same impartial manner nor which marked our first and secont distributions. This scheme was first devised to collect subscriptions in arrears from patrons of THE WEEKLY BEE. Its suc cess exceeded our expectations. Wo have now no back collections on our weekly edition , have established the prepayment system , quadrupled our circulation and correspondingly en hanced the value of our advertising space. A number of subscribers to THE DAILY BEE are now in arrears , and if by extension an of the name plan wo can induce them to pay the amount duo us , wo can well afford to make this liberal offer. By this means wo hope to still further increase the large list of THE DAILY BEE , oik having established the propaymeni system wo propose to maintain it as wo are doing with our Weekly odi tion. tion.To To these who are not familiar will our plan of distribution or the manner in which the premiums are secured by us , wo append the explanation made to our weekly subscribers , which ap plies equally to the subscribers o THE DAILY BEE. Two years ngo the publishers of TJIK BEE devised a scheme for collecting back pay from delinquent subscribers securing renewals and extending the circulation of this paper by a distri bution of valuable premiums. The success of that experiment , both ii the collection of back pay and increase of prepaid subscribers waa so oncour ging that the publishers ventured ipon the same system of premium div ributioiiR on a more extensive scale ast year. It was demonstrated that wo could better afford to distribute the nonoy usually paid to ngants , local olloctors nnd attorneys , directly to urpatrons by olforinif them extra- rdinary inducements to square nc- omits nnd prepay for another year. 5y this method wo have succeeded in wo years in mmdrtipling the circtila- ion of THE \ \ KKKIABKK and extend- ng its influence far beyond the loundnrios of this state. During the first year only a portion { the articles distributed wore pro- ured in exchange for advertising , Vheii the marked increase in circula- ion became known to merchants and nanufncturera last year they willingly ilaccd their machinery and mcrchan- liso nt our disposal in paying for ml- crtising. Thnt enabled us to do vhat seemed incredible namely , fur- lish n metropolitan weekly for two lollnrs a year nnd ivo oursubscJibors ) remiums that aggregated in value ! UO,000. And yet it was a paying in- estment for us , and gave general atisfnction to our patrons. Whnt grow out ol a desire to collect > ack pay has developed into n now and practical idea. Wo have discov ered that wo can afford to make bur subscribers sharers in the income of , ho paper from advertising. In ether words wo can nfford to divulo the nd- k'orlising patronage of the paper with its subscribers , inasmuch as the income Tom advertising grows with the in creased circulation. Advertising space in THE BEE that was worth ono hun dred dollars five years ngo will com- nadd ono thousand dollars to-day This fall moro goods nnd machinery iavo boon offered us in exchange for advertising than wo could accept in view of the limited space wo devote 'or that purpose. What wo have con- racted for makes the grandest and most varied list that has ever boon flered for distribution by any nows- > apor , and that too without paying a dollar in money. The only outlay in nsh wo expect to incur in connection vith these premiums will bo for post- igo and cxpressago. This explains iwactly how wo procure our premiums vnd why wo can give nwny property of o much valuo. All the premiums in our list nro vorthnt retail just what wo represent hem. In contracting with nmnufae- urers and wholesale dealers wo accept hem only at wholesale rates , but hat docs not lesson their vnluo to hose who receive them. THE BEE has for years stood in the rent rank of newspapers west of the Mississippi , and to-day circulates nore extensively than nny paper west jf Chicago nnd north of St. Louis. A argo number of eastern people who lesiro to procure a far western paper , vith a viuw of acquiring reliable in- ormation about the resources and do- 'elopmont of the country west of the Missouri will doubtless avail thom- , elves of the opportunity now offered hem. Having for moro than ton years > eon under ono management pursuing a course that has established for it pub ic confidence at homo and a wide reputation abroad , THE BEE could not afford to engage in any undertaking that was not conducted fairly and hon estly. The distribution in 1880 and 1881 gave general satisfaction to our subscribers. The coming distribution will bo made in the same impartial manner , by a committee whom the subscribers present may select from their own number , and in nuch man ner as they think fair and equitable. Last year all the premiums gave good satisfaction , excepting some engrav ings which were not appreciated. This year no engravings , maps or pictures have been placed among the prem iums. Our old patrons need no assurance from us of the reliability and stability of THE BEE , nor do we need to inform them that the principles it advocates , md the fearless defense it make in bohaU of the producers , makes it al most indisponsiblo to the industrial classes of the great west. No intelligent person would expect that every subscriber will receive n $050 threshing machine , a $500 pi ano , a § 300 harvester , or a S150 or gan , but all have an equal chance in the distribution. Each subscriber that pays up his ar rears and repays another year , and every now subscriber that remits prepayment payment for ono year , will receive premium worth at least Ono Dollar at retail. As a matter of fact , THE OMAHA WEEKLY BEE is worth the subscription price , Two Dollars year , to every faamer ; mechanic or merchant. Without boasting , wo as sort that no weekly paper , east or west , can compare with it in variety and choice selections , general news , interesting correspondence , and no ether paper in America contains as much far western news , ranging from the Pacific coast to the Mississippi rivor. With the proof of good faith and honest dealing before them in the numerous acknowledgments wo pub lish , wo can safely enter upon our enlarged - larged undertaking of this year , con fidently believing that its success wil bo mutually satisfactory and advan tageous.

Possessing fine wnter power anil n , fac tory built with special reference to the manufacture of the best instrument nt Iho least possible cost , this company have advantages enjoyed by no eastern factory. They have near nt band in largo quantities the finest timber in the world , nnd have nn opportunity to make the first selection , nnd save the high freights which must bo paid by eastern manufacturers , nnd consequently quently can furnish n better piano for tno money than nny other makers. The College of Music at Cincinnati , ono of tlio largest institutions of the kind in this cpuntiy , after trying the pianos of nil the best makes discarded all others nm are using only the CIIASK , nnd decided thnt it possessed all the qualities necessary to with stand the hardships of a genuine mus ical warfare. Tins speaks volumes in favor of these excellent instruments , the product of western enterprise nnd skill. All disinterested experts ad mit that these pianos nro made better than these from nny other factory nnd thnt they are the most Rorvicnblo. The pinno we oiler is their style seven nnd for elegance of appearance , beauty of tone nnd solidity of structure cannot bo ex celled. Parties who nro not familiar with this make of pianos would do well to write to the factory for nn il lustrated catalogue. The ether piano on our list is the same style nnd quality as the ono wo gave last yonr , and will bo aoprociated by the -party fortunate enough to receive - ceivo it. it.THE THE THRESHING MACHINES.

Wo will only state that his is their latest improvement. This machine was on exhibition at tbo No * iraska state fair last September , and was admired by every one , and the workings of it declared superior to iiat of any ether harvester made. TUB LEWIS HEADER. This machine stands at the head of ho header family and bos met with most surprising success. The factory at Hastings , Nebraska is kept busy ; ho year round , and the past year las not been able to make enough to fill nil orders. These headers do moro vork with less pqwor than any other style of reaper , and with less loss of jrain than by any other mode of har vesting.
