"Waterloo Society Torn tip Over an Elope
ment in High Life.
PRETTY PEARL PARK FOOLED HER PAPA
Daughter of the Village MVrclmnt I'rlneii
JClopcH nnil Miirrlvi tlio Knight of the
Kuw mill CliMivcr In Spltu of
.Strong Opposition.
The fashionable society of the little town
of Waterloo Is all torn up- and the cause of
the tear Is an vlopcniont In high life.
The inert-limit prince of the town is F.
Park , nail ho hns a daughter , Pe.irl ,
n brlght-cycd lass of seventeen sum
mers , who is fair to look upon. For
some time she has been the belli )
of the town , anil : iuy anil all of the kills
wcro ready and willing to fall down unil
worship at her shrine , but tlioy wcro not all
permitted to enjoy this privilege , for there
was a favored suitor , ono J. L. Dcnlon , the
town butcher , who was possessed of some
wealth tun ! a fairly good looking faco.
Whether L'utting steaks or chops , Dimton's
thoughts always went out to Pearl , the
merchant's daughter. As ho pressed Ills suit ,
the magnate of the Park household looked on
with any amount of displeasure , openly
declaring that a common town butcher
iviis not worthy the Unml'of his daughter ,
who , as ho put it , was better suited to pre
side over tlio parlors of a pritiro. Pcnrl lis
tened to all of the pretty talk , but she had
no lilcaof Joining hands with a prince , or any
thing of the kind , ami having a iiiliul of her
own bho conveyed thn information to that
father of hers that u butcher was gooil
enough for her , anil that she preferred love
In a cottage to waiting for a rich innu , with
a possible chance of dying an old maM ,
coiiiitu't iiiiiircupiii.
This pretty nnd playful remark caused the
father to boll over with ungtTfcnil ho at once
proceeded to inform Mr , Dcntoii that ho
must not darken the door of' ' the Park man.
ion again.
Of eoursu this caused a secno , ami tears
( lowed freely , but Papa Park's heart was
hardened ami Instead of rckmthig ho simply
tolil Miss Pearl that if phi ) attempted to
meet young Denton she would bo locked la
her room anil thorn kept until she wuu ready
to cry , "hold , enough. "
It was tilmply a ease ivliero true love took
considerable pleasure In laughing at the
locksmith ,
Pearl nmilo all l < lmls of promises , but she
eld not intern ! to keep them lor a minute , as
sha fully reall/ed that n bad promise wub
bolter broken thnn ki-pt.
Last Sunday , unbeknown to the members
of her family , ho mot Denton down on the
banks of the raging Klkhorn , where , thcro
nnd tljen , a job was put up on her father.
The job was in the saum line of many n ouo
that has been waged against obstreperous
nnd unyielding parents. It was simple , anil It
was to elope with the coming of the night.
All the littlu preliminaries wcro arranged ,
ufter which the two young people went baeis
to the town' , taking dlflVrent routes , and
looking as Innocent PS two of the last spring
lambs.
Pearl was ns happy as n lark and went
nbout the household duties > 8indiig ! some
llttlo.ultty that pleased her father amai-
iiigly , ami after tlio dinner was over anil the
family had gutheml In the great room Pupa
Park took occu&lon to remark that It waa
inauy u day * huc h bad tcon Pearl foci o
blithe and gay , ami he hoped that she
hail eoneludeil to give up that butcher.
When Pearl heard this she refrained from
saying a word , notwithstanding the fact
that she was Hlmost dying to tell the old
man of the surprise party that was in store ,
As night drew on apace , Pearl sought the
seclusion of her chamber , and there , under
the light of the lamp , she tied up a bundle of
hur best clothes ami dropped them from the
window.
AVont to Grctnu , Sure.
During all of this time Mr. Denton was
not Ulle , for ho was hunting a man who for a
consideration was willing to stay in the
butcher shop for a few days and manipulate
the saw ana cleaver. Having found that
man he proceeded to the livery stable , where
ho hired the fleetest team and a driver was
engaged to take two persons to Grctna , in
Sarpy county. The driver was cautioned to
keep a eloso mouth anil bo at tlio back gate
of tlio fence that surrounded the Park resi
dence at an hour not later than 8 o'clock. A
coin was slipped Into the hand of the livery
stable man and away Mr. Denton went to
array himself in Ills best suit of dollies.
When the hour of 8 was tolled off by
the town clock the team , driver , Mr. Denton
ami a bundle of clothes backed up to that
back gate. A minute later one of the
windows of the Park residence went up and
a pretty girl appeared , With a spring slio
leaped into her lover's arms unil was hurried
to the waiting carriage. The whip was
piled to the horses anil away the imrty went
toward the Sarpy county line , Tlio couple
told the driver to make for Grctna , and
when that town was reached Denton nnd
the girl boiuilcil a train for Papilllon , reachIng -
Ing there Monday morning , where the knot
was tied as tight as the county juilgo could
draw it.
When the Monday morning sun nroso at
Waterloo , the rage in the Park resilience
was something frightful to behold. The head
of the liouso declared that ho would do some
thing rahh ami at oneu went to the station ,
from vthcncQ ho sent , telegrams In every
direction , instructing the olllelals of the
towns along tlio line to Htop the wediliug and
arrest tlio parties who wanted to bo made
one. The telegrams ere too late , for oven
when they wcro sent Mr. Park's daughter
was Mitt. Denton , instead of Miss Pearl
IMrk.
Friends of the parties arc now laboring to
bring about a reconciliation.
