FERGUSON A CO Elopement from Lumber City- One of those exciting episodes in the oourae of young love occurred at Cochran last Monday evening. The parties were a young man from Macon by the naiae of D and a young lady (him Lumber City. The young lady’s father, Sir. W—- is a former near Lumber City, and Is a prominent man in his sectiou He went out on his farm on Monday morning to superintend the cutting of his oat*. When be returned home he found that his daugh ter had eloped with bur sweetheart. They embarked on the train which passed Lum ber City during the old gent's absence in bis oat field. Wbcn he relumed and dis covered tlie theft and the (light, lie com menced telegraphing to nil points. He tent dispatches to Kastman, Cochran and * Lowlier* A foil description of the par ties was given, ands 100 reward offered for their arrest and detention. All this time the train was rattling along at rapid speed, and the young couple having a delightful time, dreaming over futnre happiness and what papa and mamma w ould think of the | runaways. But ales! how often the fond est hope* decay! Voting love is but a dream—it is a more whisper upon the breeze—and its victims are forever being wrecked when they fondly imagine their little craft is being wafted toelysian shores. Over the wires, w ith lightning ihuh, the cruel words w ere sent to arrest the freeing lovers The train rolled up to Cochran, and here was the second scene iu the tableaux. Marshal Davies had received the dispatch, and was at the depot waiting. Tim couple were arrested and the young lady’s father telegraphed to. The irate old gentleman Jumped on the night train from Uruuswiek and reached Cochran next morning at daylight. The young man. after his arrest, had not toes allowed any conversation whatever with the young lady—the Marshal having Imw« Celegraped such instruction* from Mr W. The young man was kept in a differ cut building. When \V arrived, it was iatoioMlcd to the y- ting man that hi* Ufo was i* danger—that W was uiad all over, and Might commit a rash art. It was ! a storied fart that it would to tost lu let | tlie yuwag man escape. Accordingly he was fold to take care of himself. This tic prucAuiJkd to do by Jumping out at the back w in<W aiwl making adasli into the wood* The Inst seen of hint at Cochran lie w«* tusJuag through the oak bushes as If chawed by Captain Jack and his brave Modoc*. These is no telling bow fast lie run or b«w badly he was scared hut one thing isuuatou, he ran fast enough to reach Cos ley’* fetation iu time to tuke the morning train troui Hawkinivilla to Maeon Vo Week Stretching Hundreds or people, both w hite and col ored, cajuie to town on Friday last to wit ness the fun es hanging John Kilim. One old oefeored man told us he had walked fourteen miles to see the execution. It re minded us somewhat of circus day, when every laxly is on the lookout lor the eiuwn sad elephant Ail who came went back sadly diaap|aiinted, however. Unit** John h'illen shall sliutllc off this mortal toil in the old-fashioned way, Lu will live until until next October Court The Supreme Court will nony/me in July and will then decide w hether or not he is entitled to anew trial. If anew trial to granted, lie will to tried at October Bupe rior Court; if not granted, he will bo re sentenced at that term. When (sheriff lasncaster entered the prisoner’a cell late Friday evening, for th* ; purpose of supplying him with water, he saw the negro grasp a door liar, as If intent on striking him. IsSh'sstsr drew bis pis tot, ami ICilton dropped tin- tor. He said he saw to many people in town he thought they intended to take him out and bang him any way. The bar had been form shod him by another priaouet Otr Country Friend* For a week past our saacftiw bss been a repository for various nbwormai vegetables, such as turupt, radishes, potatoes, cabba ges, etc The first on the list was Mr. Philetus [foster, who tent us tlie largest spring turnip we have yet seen It weighed near ly six pounds, and was alxiul eighteen inchestn circumfmicc. For a spring lur nip, it heats all. Next was Dr. Jelks, who brought us an Irish potato of the Early Goodrich variety measuring six snd a quarter indies in length. And by the way, this is the kind of potato that the Doctor feeds that youngs tor on who baa recently made bis advent into this moral vineyard. He is a big “aojer boy " Now comes Tom Stevens with a basket of Irish potatoes, radishes and turnips. Ope radish ws* a foot and a tall in length, and seven of the potatoes, which were of unusual size, were taken from one root. The turnips, however, weie too small to talk about, when placed beside Mr Duster's. The next visit we shall mention was from a clever old friend on tbe cast side ol the river. Uis donation was three fine cabbages, of the Early York and Drum Head varieties. Undoubtedly this has been a great year for garden* A Kentucky fanner refuaed to look at n sample tewing machine recently, aa be always “sowed wheat by hand." He is related to the man who did not want a threshing machine on his farm : “for," said he, “give me a harness strap or * barrel-stave and I can make my family tow the mark ac cording to law and ScripUr " HT John Fsle A Cos. have tbs celebrat ed Home Stomach Bitten for talc.
