CUNNING CUPID.
AYonllifDlPair of LOFCFS Outwit the
Old Folfcs ,
Though Slopped Ity the Police , Thoj
Succeed In Marrying.
Saturday evening the police received a
tolcgraphio notice to atop a young couple
who had eloped from near Clarinda. The
lovers were soon found , and were do
talncd in the police headquarters under
the watch of the officers pending the ar
rival of the girl's father , who tolcgraphci
that ho would como Immediately. The
young man's name was Charles Chaflln
and ho was only nineteen years old
while the girl , named Mattlo Whitney
noy , was only sixteen. Their
parents live on farms about a milo
from each other , and about novcn milo
from Clarinda. The young folks have
boon engaged since last fall , but the olc
folks had stormed a good deal about the
love affair , especially the girl's father ,
and so the two had bcon keeping their
plans on the quiet. Last Friday night
there was an entertainment , at which
they with other of the young folks were
present. The boy in order to throw their
folks oil their guard , wont homo with
another girl , taking opocial pains to lot
the old folks obaorvo the fact. About
midnight , however , ho slipped around
with his horse and buggy to the girl's
house , and she , stealing out , they drove
together to Hod Oak , where they took
the train , intending to 30 to Omaha and
marry there. On reaching here they
stopped for supper , and before they
could cross the _ river were taken in
charge by the police , who had received a
telegram giving this instruction.
Saturday night they remained sitting
up all night at police headquarters , Jim
3rooks , the ex-policeman , being put n
special to watch them. Yesterday inorn-
ng they were allowed to go across the
itroot to a restaurant to got their brcak-
est , no officer accompanying.thom. They
returned all right to police headquarters
and remained there until noon when
; hey were allowed to RO out In a similar
manner to got their dinner. Cupid had
sharpened their wits as well as warmed
, heir hearts , and by some messenger
; hey had secured a marriage license ,
BO that while they were
; otting their dinner they sent for Justice
jchurz and wore speedily married , the
: oromony being short , swootQ but strong.
They then returned to police headquar
ters and Boated themselves cosily by the
window , and chatted lovingly , while they
watched through the iron bars for the
irate father to como storming up the
Btreot. The young couple took the mat
ter very quietly , and seemed rather to
enjoy the way they had outwitted the old
folks , rather than fool any fear for the
result. The young man said ho intended
to take his bride homo at once if her
father did not come right off.
The youthful bridegroom is a trim ,
bright-oyod intelligent farmer's boy ,
while the girl is a buxom , rosy-checked
black-eyed damsel , who Booms abundant
ly nblo to care for herself. The young
oouplo have the sympathy of the at
taches of the jail , and the amount of
quiet chuckling going on among thorn in
dicated that the officials were not over
anxious to thwart any of love's plans ,
even at the risk of exciting the displeasure
uro of the old folks. It Boomed doubtful
whether the officers would have inter
fered with the marriage of the couple ,
even if they had suspected their plan ,
and rather winked at their noon-day
wadding.
The girl's father who is quite a wealthy
farmer , arrived on the afternoon train
postprday. Ho was very indignant on
'uiding that the young folks were mar
ried , and on being advised to buy tickets
and take the young folks back , but ho
was too mad to take uny auch advice. Ho
was very anxious to find out how they
got their license , aud threatened to in
vestigate and punish whoever certified
that they were of ago. Ho loft the
young folks to their fate and took the
evening train back for homo again.
The young man is a relative of Mr.
Scott , who has a boarding house on
North Main street , and the newly-
wedded ones repaired thither after the
old man's angry departure , and will
probably start back together for homo
to-day.
THE BOY BIOYOL1ST ,
EIoTarrlos Here ior'n Few Days Uc-
Xoro FrooocclliiR to San Francisco.
Frank J. Aahton , the young bicyclist
who arrived here n day or two ago from
