Some days since a man called at a well known millinery establishment in this city where his daughter had been work ing, and on inquiring for her was surpris ed to hear she was not there, having left several days before, saying she was going to be married that day. The girl, who said she was only fifteen years of age, al- though she looked older, had been living with her father in the country, and, from her storv. was not treated as she should have been, her mother being dead and finally, she concluded to leave her home and learn the business named.

Mean while, she bail become engaged without her father's consent or knowledge, to a young man, a clerk in Kansas City and the ladies with whom she had been work ing were surprised one morning to hear her ask if thev would make her a dress that day, as the was going to be married The dress was made, the young man was in town, and in a short time they were made man and wife and were on the af ternoon train on their way East. From what the father said he was not altogeth er ignorant of the state of affairs, but had no idea it was so near the termination. He seemed to feel wretched over the act of his daughter, and said her story of being ill-treated was false, she having had everj'thing she wanted in her home. Perwnal, Sol.
