Both Elopers Wore Gowns. •▲ novel elopement which occurred Saturday was that of Mr. J. T. Higdon,a young printer, and Miss Rosalind Bush, the 14-year-old daughter of Samuel T. Bush, a well known carpenter of Owensboro, Ky. As the girl could be gotten away from home only during the daytime, the groom conceived the idea of dressing in female attire and getting out of town without creating any suspicion. Accordingly he so dressed himself, and, calling at the house of a friend for the girl, they escaped in a buggy to Rockport, Ind., where they were married. Too late the father ascertained that he had been outwitted, and swore he would kill, etc. He is tamer now, however, and the young people are happy.—€or. Louisville Courier-JouraaL
