‘CI'I‘Y WEST NORWALK.
Little has occurred during the past week
of great public interest. The city has been
visited by notables, from the Borough and
sister City, farms, mills, gardens and cows
have been examined by them, but we .do
not hear of any sales being made. 'Grcat
anxiety was manifested on hearing that a.
member of the committee had visited
Long Island in search of a greenback work-
ingman’s editor, all wishing to know the
measure of his success, our citizens could.
hardly wait until Saturday night, the time
for the meeting of the committee. Many
vciiturcd to question said committee, When
he was-met on the street, of his luck. Evas-
ivc answers were given, as though he did
not wish to make any report, until it was
made in full and in writing at the regular
committee meeting. The evening came,
and the assembly gathered hearly, anxious
to‘ know if the greenback editor could be
procured. Time fpassed. the patience of
other members of the committee ‘on city
charter was almost exhausted by the non-
arrival of the important man whose report
was to be secured. The time for adjourn.
ment had almost come, when he appeared,
and from his actions and enthusiasm it Was
evident, great success had been his. Ques-
tions were put to him of this and that‘
which he cunningly evaded or to which un.
satisfactory answers were given, he showing
a determination not to report, about his suc-
ces in finding an editor, -,until he had re-
ported of his gaining another convert to
his side of the moucy question, which
he had done by laboring with him and caused
his delay to the meeting. Pat Maloney
(who can neither read nor write) was intro-
duced to the waitingmultitude and received
with great applause. This said the commit-
teeman is my convert, said he, was pre-
sent 'at the great meeting of Our side at
Military Hall, Wednesday nightuand after
hearing, the "‘dimicratic Lawyer” ye re-
publican editor, and the turn coat grocer
appeal to the masses to come up and
“Jinc” the workingmans ranks and then
go out and labor with their friends to fol-
low them. . I have been laborz'n tillI got
a convert and have him. Said he, you.
ought to have heard the lawyer. He was
an out and out dimocrat. Thceditor,hada
been a red-hotrepubliean,both had abandoned.
their oldlovc'and principles, doubtless hop-
ing for political preferment and cmoliments
and were strong greenbackers. So the time
was passed, no regular committee meeting
was held, but adjourned for one week.
The accident on ‘the Adelphi, caused
anxiety throughout the whole county, as
soon as it was known, as passengers from
Darien, New Canaan, West Norwalk, were
on boartb We are glad to say, passengers
from here returned only slightly wounded.
It would appear howeverthatfihey were not
exempt from the hands of robbers, as their
money was taken while tickets and other
papers were left.
Rev. Mr. Palmer occupied the pulpit of
the Union Chapel Sunday afternoon and
delivered an excellent discourse from the
words “And he called the name of that
place Bethel.” '
The Sabbath School concert was held
Sunday evening, a week since notwithstand-
ing the Hon. W. E. Raymond was not pres-
ent to make an address. The exercises
were varied, the teachers and scholars oc-
cupying the most of thc_tim_e in singing,
recitations, and responsive readings. Ad-
dresses were made by Roswell Reed, Esq,
the Superintendent and others. Next Sun-
day atS o’clock, p. m., Rev. Mr. Taylor,
of the city of South Norwalk, is expected
to preach.
Mr. George Gregory, of Michigan is vis-
iting his friends and sisters, Mrs. Henry
Johnson, Mrs. Wm. F. Mather and Mrs. E.
P. Weed, in this city. _
Owing to the absence of members, the com-
mittee on city affairs had only an informal
meeting on Saturday evening, a very ener-
getic talk was had over the nomination of
town officers, from the fact that_some of
the nominations. were distrustful to the
republican members who have always been
true blue. It was the .unanimous opinion
that if good straight republicans could not
be found, and turn coats had to be nomi-
nated from the second district, the party
had better take up with the workingmen’s se-
lection. Scratched tickets will be the re-
sult. '
The member who while visiting Long
Island, searched ~for a greenback editor to
fill up| the editorial department of our new
paper, verbally reported no success, as all
such had emigrated. The committeeman
however was very fluent on the “Green-
back and workingman’s question,” assert-
ing that he was a full convert to that party
since attending the meeting in Military
Hail,_ and listening to the powerful argu-
ments of a lawyer and ye editor, and es-
pecially the appeal from both to all to
“come up and sign". How far this new
doctrine has infected these parts is not
known, possible election day will tell how.
far the old parties have been benefittcd by it.

SATURDAY, Oc'r. 5th.
JOHN W. BLAKE,
age 47, residence Jersey City, occupation en-
gineer. I first made acquaintance steamer
Adelphi, in May or June of 1877, when I
first inspected her. The law says that we
shall have 24 hours notice in writing; parties
making application for inspection do not often
request inspection by any particular man.
There were no particular circumstances why
I was' selected to inspect the Adelphi in 1877.
The Adelphi was to be inspected in Norwalk,
that was in 1877; this year I was put down
to her without any talk about it. I inspected
Adclphi in 1877 in Norwalk. I undertook to
put hydrostatic pressure, in New York in
1877, but for some reason I could not do so.
Iain quite sure it was from leaky engine
valves. I am sure it was from no defect in
the boiler that I could not get the pressure on
in 1877. The next night, or the next but one
I ‘came up at night and inspected the boiler
here. At my first inspection in 1877, I don’t
think I made a recommendation to engineer
-for repairs. I fixed pressure at 40 pounds
because we have. a law governing pressure.
I am quite sure I figured the pressure on my
way up. I had the preceeding certificate
showing that the boiler had been stamped—
iu most cases it is impossible to find stamps
after boiler has been run a year. The boiler
on the Adelphi is a common style of marine
boiler in use in and around New York Bay
and harbor. There are many boilers of that
diameter. I think the boiler and engine on
Adeiphi were about the usual proportions;
there wasn’t enough difference to attract at-
tention. I think space in boiler is not more
than usually cramped. The law nowrequircs
16 and 24,inches space about marine boilers ;
the law went into force in 1872. Consider
that law wouldn’t apply to new boilers put
into old vessels. At John K‘Mathew’s desig-
nation I was set down to inspect Adelphi in
1878. I arrived at pressure in 1878, by ex-
amination of boiler. I had my certificate of
previous year before me. .In many cases
where a boiler is five or six years old I cut
pressure down. It is very rarely that I put
pressure up. On computation the preSsurc
on 9»;- foot shell figured by myself by Ameri-
can rules would be 42; single riveted, the
other parts of the boiler being equally strong
on account of bracing. We figure upon the
cylindrical shell without stays, and determine
the pressure lQ' it allowing other parts of the
boiler to be stayed-to hold the pressure. 0n
the 12 foot shell I would figure pressure at
36 1—10 pounds. In examindtion of new
boilers I am always particular to know that
it is stayed, in my judgment, sufficient to
sustain pressure equal to the shell. In exam-
ination of boiler that has been inspected.
several times I mean to _go through boiler
and examine whether it is stay@; but in
many cases I can’t very well get all parts of
the boiler. In justice to myself I must
say this, that many times where
boiler is covered with expensive felting and
only one orhtwo years old, in not stripping
the felt off boiler, unless I found some weak-
ness in putting on the hydrostatic test, then
I would consider myself justified in cutting
off felting ; where a boiler is two years old and
been inspected I would not consider it just
to cut off that felting and see if she was
properly braced. When they wanted
pressure raised I would consider it my duty
in every instance to cut off lagging; I would
consider it my duty, when I couldn’t ex-
amine without cutting felt, cxcept where I
found boiler out of repair after proper
repairs, I might raise pressure. When I
recommend repairs and they, are not made,
I hold certificate; I think I ordered ,a little
work done on Adelphi this year; afterward I
went on board, to see if work. was done,
(memoranda from diary), went to Norwalk
J une 25th 1878, . and inspected steamer
Adelphi; found a small leak at base of
steamer chimney; otherwise in good condi-
tion. I recommend patch to be put on
steamer chimney; told engineer so. I recall
meeting Mr. White; don’t remember
whether on boat or at our office ; don’t recol-
lect conversation that took place; I don’t
remember making some such remark to Mr. '
White. We landed at Norwalk on the 25th
of J une. I met Capt. Sam. Byxbee; made
arrangement to spend evening with him after
I got through inspection; agreed to meet him
at certain place; I- was delayed in meeting
him; he came down. to dock, as near as I can
remember about 9:30; I was then sounding
the steamer chimney; he said to me I got
tired waiting for you; it takes you a good
while to inspect this boat, and a new boiler
too. I said to him I wanted to be sure that
that boiler was safe, as my family were
liable to travel on boat. I made that remark
in ajocose manner. When I recommend a
«repair and it is‘not done, we report to the
Custom House, and they would. put a Mar-
shall on board of vessel ; we mark on certifi-
cate, hold vessel for repairs, and our clerk
reports to.Custom House. I recollect‘mark-
ing this on certificate of Adelphi ; I went to
office on Monday morning last and 'found old
certificate marked in my hand writing. The
patch I recommended could be put on on
Sunday; don’t remember whether I told
them to put on a soft patch or a-rivited
patch.
Question. Were any defects or imperfec-
tions on boiler reported to you by any
.licensed ofiicer of the boat, at the time of
inspection or since? Answer no, nor since, .
that I remember. I know that at time of
inspection none were reported to me. If
those patches had been shown' to me, they
being put on forcracks in thin iron, I should
haveglaid the boat up. I’think on the Mon-
day following the 25th of J uue, the engineer
told‘ me that he had done what I ordered. I
am not aware that notice had been given to
office or to any of the inspectors about other
repairs being made on boiler since ‘she was
inspected. An engineer would not report to
inspector that he found patches on boiler
that ;were there' when he took the boiler
unless said patches. or repairs were made in a ‘
dangerous way... A ”soft patch on Bridge
Wall may be evidence of a crack, thin iron, or
of what we call a pockrmark. Peck-mark
usually comes from deterioration of inside of
boiler. The harder a boiler 'is fired to do its
work the more likely are cracks to appear
in Bridge Wall"; at time of inspection I saw
no patches on Bridge Wall. Under ordinary
circumstances a soft patch is not a proper
way or repairing a crack in Bridge Wall, the
heat is so intense that in putting on a soft
patch in the furnace there are two thick-
nesses of' iron usually and red ,‘lead putty,
making the distance so great between the
water and the fire that the‘ bolt or bolts which
secure the soft patch, are liable to be over-
heated and the ends burned off freeing the
patch over aperture and causing a rupture,
and I never allow it, never allow a, vessel to
continue .to run with it. If I was at sea or
had my ship loaded I would put on a soft
patch on Bridge Wall for trip, only in emerg-
ency-would a soft patch be allowed on Bridge
Wall;'would not consider it prudent to put
soft patch on Bridge Wall with the purpose
of running sometime. On a boiler that is
fired hard the more likely a soft patch is to
burn off in Bridge Wall or furnace. In
' cutting down pressure, I generally cut down
51b at a time for wEakness in boiler. In
inspection of Mr. White’s boat, Mr. White,
nor any of his men have ever hinte'd to me to
pass his boat, or given-any presents to me.
In putting on a soft patch, it is not a usual
thing to put on plate on' inside of boiler.
If the iron is not thick enough to bolt to, ' it
ought to be cut out and'be replaced by new
iron and rivited, A dangerous injury on
boiler should be reported at our office. If I
was engineer on board of vessel where a soft
patch is bolted to plate inside of boilerI
would report it to ownci of vessel, and'if
owner didn’t report to [inspectors ofilce
such. repairs, I would; I would report
the corner of vessel, if owner didn’
allow me to put on hard patch. Iron
'3-32 inch thickness is not fit to put a
96ft patch on; it; would be a very unsafe
thing for any body to. do. In putting on
patch on iron of‘ such thickness, apatch
beingj inch thick, would draw the iron in
the boiler to the patch rather than the reverse
or the proper way. I would never put on a
patch thicker than the place on boiler to be
repaired. ' I wouldn’t patcha place on boiler
of 3-33 inch thickness under any.circum-
stance, where the general sheet was gone,
unless in case of emergency where I could
put stays through the patch to another part
of the boiler that was of sufficient strength to
hold the patch. Where this rupture appears,
as it appears in photograph, there is no
chance to don piece of work as I have des-
cribed, because the line of rupture is above
the line of socket bolts. A skilled mechanic
could not drill through iron 3-32 inch thick-
ness without knowing that it was very thin
iron. It is the duty of the engineer of a
vessel to see how a boiler mdker does his
work. There is a good deal of discipline on
board of vessels that all artizans are bound to
respect, if a boiler maker ordinarily comes
aboard, their work is laid out for them, gen-
erally by the engineer. . .
In inspecting boilers the law says there
shalibé hydrostatic pressure, but does not
say that it shall be done by inspector’s
gauge. I am quite positiveI brought my
gauge in inspection of Adelphi. In inspect-
ing new boilers I see that they comply with
law in regard to stamping of iron, test cf
the iron are properly equipped with steam
gauge, water gauge, gauge cock, safety x aim
and tin plug—There, .was a tin plug in 1 ac:
connection of Adelphi's boiler—then I vault
apply hydrostatic pressure and listen tor a
drawing up of the braces or noise in th:
boiler. After hydrostatic pressure I voull
go below and see that there is no dangtroui
leaks while hydrostatic pressure remains;
never allow it to be relieved till I have looked
over boiler. For an old boiler I look them
over-{thoroughly before hydrostatic pressure is
put on, and often order work to be done be-
fore application of hydrostatic pressure.
After work is done report is made to'our
office, then I apply the hydrostatic pressure.
In the case that hydrostatic pressure is not
put on before I examine with pressure on,
' and if the boiler shows deterioration I sound
it thoroughly With a hammer in places where
it is liable to give out. Statement in certifi-
cate reads :. 1 “Longitudinal seams ? Yes,
in this case all her longitudinal seams should
be double riveted to comply with certificate.
The longitudinal seam, as shown in the pho-
tograpb, is single riveted. Through clerical
errors it sometimes appears.
The certificates of 1875, 1876 and 1887 are
all marked double riveted. The certificate
made June 24th, 1876, expired June.17th,
1877, which allowed the boat 371!) of steam,
was made bySupervising Inspector Low. I
cannot explain, why I allowed 4011). I have
no recollection of making such change. I
am positive I never have inspected vessels
without previous certificate before me. I have
never raised pressure where I can fairly get
out of it. I always fight against it. There
was never any influence to get me to raise
the pressure. I consider Mr. Low a very
competent man. I was within the limit the
law gives the 9A foot shell. I don't remem-
ber about the 37th pressure nor do I remem-
ber of raising the pressure. Question—Is
this 12 foot shell, braced as it is, a well
braced shell? Answer—No, it is not. The
braces might be put. in in several ways for
3011) pressure, but not quite so thick”
Braces put in‘ in that way hold the crowu
sheet and in my opinion strengthen the
shell. Afiat plate in the boiler sholud he
stayed allover allowing it to be more than
12 inches.
A sheet in the cylindrical shell would de-
pend on the thickness of the iron for strength
and not on the stays, because there are no
stays there, and stays are never put in 9. cyl-
~indrical shell for the purpose of adding
strength to the shell; under such circumstan-
ces it is not fair to lay much stress on stays
in a 12 foot shell, for stays which are put
in exclusively to hold crown sheet. In fig-
uring tensil strain on iron I would allow for
what braces hold. I never give a brace over
40,000 lb tensile strain. I have often figured
tensile strain braces, when getting pressure
of sheet in giving benefit to shell equal tog:
of tensile strength of braces. I considered
at time of inspection that a 12 foot shell was
as strong as the 9% foot shell. I considered
at that bracing of 12 foot shell was strong
enough to sustain 4011) of steam. Looking in
furnaces, at rivets in crown sheet would in-
dicate angle braces running from crown
sheets to side of boiler. I take measure of
boiler from previous certificate. I didn’t go
in this boiler at all when I inspected it. I
think Mr. Smith told me when I first inspect-
ed her that they had had it made for a first-
class boiler. I think the fires weie banked.
I took a hammer and touched the side sheets
of the furnaces. In . inspecting boilers
four or five years old I invariably have the
fires hauled; under that age we don’t look
for boilers to be worn out. A boiler cannot be
properly inspected without a hammer; I
never inspected a boiler over four years old
- without using a hammer. The law does not
require me to go into man-hole of boiler in
inspection. I didn't see patches at point
where the explosion took place; I would
not look for deterioration of. iron .at that
place. If the rest of the boiler is good, sheets
not eaten up, I would say that explosion took
place there because of some chemical action
of the water at that place on that sheet of
iron.” I don’t think there is a locked valve
in the New York District. I don’t think
safety valve is taken out of control of engi-
neer. A. Cornell White has name in our of-
fice of keeping his'boats in good condition in
respect to the boilers and equipments. I
think it is the duty of engineers to tell in-
spectors of all the patches on the boiler. If.
those three patches were in Illat particular
spot the engineer should have told me about
them. I had a right to expect that the engi-
neer would tell me. There are certain places
that it is almost impossible to keep ‘boiiers
tight. Soft patches are frequently put on
new boilers in places known to be‘ liable to
leak.
MONDAY, Oct. 7th. -
rumor: manner,
aged 41 years, 140 Lewis Street, New York
City, occupation boiler maker. I have been
boiler maker over 22 years; I am new in
employ of Quintard Iron Works; Palmer &
Co.; I am employed in fitting up new work;
am not employed as foreman, nor as outside
foreman; am a journeyman boiler maker;
while employed on Mr.-Pease’s boats I do as
I am‘ told; I am never putby Mr. Palmer
sometimes foreman of boiler shops puts men
in charge of a gang of men to do outside
work. When these boats are running I am
put in charge of making repairs ;' the name of
the boiler shop'foreman is Lewis Sheridan;
when I go on Mr. White‘s boats to make re
pairs, in the winter season ofthe year, Mr.
Pcase looks after it when boats gets a regular
overhauling; in the summer time the engineer
when there is a leak on boiler sends for me,
and I come immediately; we generally cou-
suit together which is the best way of re-
pairing; I remember when engineer of
Adelphi came after me, to make repairs
where “If: leak took-place; I remember that
one night; he told me there were some leaks
on side of boiler and wanted me to brlun‘
piece of iron two feet longpto stop the look?
1 brought a piece of soft patch iron from a
foot to 15 inches wide; I know I put a piece
on inside and outside of boiler; I don’t re-
member cutting the piece in two on boat; .1
might have cut it on board of boat ; I had
noticed the patches I think before ; I thought
from explosion, view I took of it, that they
had rivited bolt over gas pipe and caused it
to leak; there are gas pipe sockets along
there, and riviting the head of bolt there
would weaken the shell; I took sockets out
and put bolts through the two pieces of iron;
I found each side of boiler iron a little thin,
but I found irongoorl a little distance off ;
I drilled no holes at all when I put 'on patches ;
a
’tight.
in charge of a gang of men to make repairs; ,
twofircmen companies came up to parade-
I used the old holes; we generally make the
sockets of wrought iron; the sockets on
Adelphi boiler were made of light gas pipe
iron; I think there are some wrought iron
sockets, but I know I found gas pipe sockets;
gas pipe sockets sometimes cut. through sheet
in riviting on them; there is about the ordi-
nary watcr space about boiler; probably
engineer told me to have two pieces of iron
to patch boiler; the engineer and myself
talked together about the repairs; I know
engineer was there before job was finished
in the morning; I know he wanted the leaks
stopped; Itold him Iwould try.
I began work sometime in the evening,
about eight‘o'clock. After I began work on
patch I think engineer was there sometime.
Don’t know whether he was down below.
I couldn’t say he was down or not. I talked
with him before I went to_bcd. He wanted to
know if it could be done by morning. I told
him would try. Generally, the. engineer
didn’t interfere with me. If I was interfered
with too mu'ch, I would’nt work at all. I
wouldn’t be driven. I ask engineer what ‘he
wants done, when I go on board. Sometimes
the engineer asks what is the best way to do
it, and we consult together. The braces .over
corner sheet are put there to hold crown sheet
from going on the fire—the brace strengthens
shell. Braces are generally placed near top of
crown sheet. Where there is an arch, braces
are not required as on a flat service. I think
the boilers of Adelplii were good boil-
ers. I have no him how much steam inspec-
tor should allow on boiler of that kind. . Boil-
er men generally try and get the braces
straight up and down. Braces over crown
sheet, it is usual to stay a flat plate allover.
We generally put on soft patch when boiler
is so stayed. We generally put a row of bolts
on each sideof crack in putting on soft patch.
In the early part of the season I would cut
out such place and put in a hard patch. Sheet
' is not injured as much by screwing on as it is
when riveted 011 over the pipe sockets. I
couldn’t say how long it would taketo put on
hard patch in place. like that, when deck was
cleared away A hard patch of that size
would take two days time. In putting on
hard patch there, the deck wouldjhavc to be
removedjpartiall y. Sixteen inches room would
be sufficient to put on hard patch. After I
was through job, I had breakfast and then
slept until I got to 33d street. 1 sup‘
pose I asked engineer if the place was.
I had no talk with him about how
thick or how thin the iron was—I might have
told him it was thin about socket bolts. I
don’t remember putting patch on bridge
wall. In someboats soft patch on bridge
wall—generally soft- patch is not put on
bridge wall. Inspectors don’t allow soft
patch on bridge wall because fire plays on
them. Mr. Peasc wouldn’t allow soft patch
on bridgewall—he made me put on hard
patches when it was hard work to do so. He
Was particular in regard to patches near fire.
.I couldn’t tell how many times I have put
patch on Adclphi this summer. May be four
or five times. I don’t think it was five
times. I put, I think, two patches around
chimney one night and one patch another
time, and one patch down on the big fine; I
fixed two socket bolts in back connection;and
the large patch near where— explosion took
place. I don’t know that Italkcd with en-
gineer aboutlthickness of iron near where ex-
plosion took place. I couldn’t tell anything
about boiler till I stripped the place. I took
particular pains in putting on larger patch so
that it would be substantial. Yesterday I ex-
amined boiler of Adelphi—was told to do so
before comnig up here. Mr. Palmer told me.
I didn’t sound at all along the sheet when I
put on patch. I don't consider it my place
to sound boiler. I consider that the duties
of inspectors. When I am called to repair a
crack I don’t generally hammer around on
the sheet to find whether iron is thin. I go
by engineers instructions when I make re.
pairs—don’t go hunting around boiler.

LiNCOLN’s GIANT STRENGTH—III: O‘CTIJFTS
SOME POWERFUL SAI‘LORS.
Few were aware of the physical strength
possessed by Mr. Lincoln. In muscular
power he was one in a thousand. One morn-
ing, while we were sitting on deck, he saw
an axe in a socket on the bulwarks, and, tak-
ing it up, held it at arm’s length at the ex:
tremity of the helve with his thumb and fore-
finger, continuing to hold it there for a num—
ber of minutes. The most powerful sailors
on board tried in vain to imitate him. Mr.
Lincoln said he could do this when he was
eighteen years of age, and had never seen a
day since that time when he could not. It.
occurred to me, when reading the details. of
the plot that terminated in the death of the
President, that his abduction, which Was at
one time proposed by the conspirators, would
have resulted very disastrously to those who
should have the temerity to undertake it.
The .plan proposed was to waylay the Presi-
dent at night during one of his frequent
visits to the War Department, where he was
in the habit of going, t9 read the telegraphic
dispatches during the time of important milli-
tary movements, and where he would often
remain until a very late hour, returning alone
through the grounds of the White House.
A half-dozen men were to seize and carry
him off; but, had they attempted it, Jhey
would probably have found that they had
met their match, for he had the strength of a
giant. Judge Swett, of Chicago, who was an
intimate friend of his, any that he has seen him
dash into a crowd where two powerful men
were fighting, and taking each by the collar,
hold them out at arm’s length in the most
helpless and ridiculous position.

Two Youthful Lovers Elope.
The vicinity of Clark and Smith streets,
Paterson, N. J ., was thrown into excitement
yesterday by the reported clopcmcus of a
very youthful couple, and circumstances
being nearly similar to those of the Fallon-
Cohen case, which has recently attracted so
much attention in this city. George Wash-
ington Feder is the son of Charles Feder,
a most othordox Israelite and successful
clothier but with a catholicity of spirit
worthy his illustrious namesake. George
Washington in utter disregard of the claims
of his race or religion, has allowed his
youthful affections to centre upon his next-
door neighbor, Ida, daughter of Patrick
Coyle, a very fine intelligent Irishman, a
Roman Catholic in religion, and a coachman'
by occupation, who for many years drove
the carriage of the late millionaire locomo-
tive-builder. Charles Danforlh. Ida has
frankly admitted that she reciprocated the
feelings of George Washington, and has been
, his inseparable companion. Still, the parents
never supposed that the antipathies'of race
and creed would be. sacrificed on Cupid’s
shrine, and the intimacywas allowed to go
unchecked. Yesterday morning the young
couple disappeared, and afteralong search
were found, at the Erie Rallway Depot,
several blocks away from home, presum-
ably with the intciition of eloping by the first
train. Ida’s‘father brought the truauts home,
and cautioned'their respective mothers to
keep a sharp lookOut, but love laughs at
such restraints, 'and in half an hour the
young couple were again missing. A long
and anxious hunt ensued, and at last the
little folks—they are barely 4 years old-s
Were found more than a mile from home,
near the Delaware, Lackawanna' and West-
ern Railroad Depot, waiting patiently for a
train to come along, Of course, they were
taken home again. At last accounts,Georgc
Washington was averse to sitting down, and
preferred to_ take his meals standing, while
Ida was laughingly looking for her young
lover.—-N. Y. Tim.
