Pres $3 dirpatctes were eeci out roa Baltimore WednesJay ni rbt itating that Herman U. oou, wco for six years hal lived at that place, was on June 17th married to Mrs. Kausch, of that city. She has since reported to the police that Wood is a woman and Wood is now in jail. A special from Elizabeth City-gives further particulars of this queer case, and says: Lota A. Sawyer, the young woman who in the dis guise of a man. mar-ied another wo- man in Baltimore, is the daughter of the late Edward Sawyer, who was a prominent and wealthy farmer in Camden county, about five miles north of this place. lie died in 1880, leaving a wife and four chil dren, three of whom were daugh ters. The family was highly re- pected and were among the first families in Camden county. In 1885 the widow with her four chil dren moved to Norfolk, Va., where they resided for three or four years. But they afterwards returned ana took up their home agaiu in Camden county. Mrs. Sawyer, soon after her return from Norfolk, married John C. Whitehurft, who died in 1892. The girl Lota was of a very wild temperament and made things gen erally warm around tbe household. When disgrace bad fallen upon ber she quietly left the house one night, when her child was only a week old and walked to Norfolk, where she donned a man's apparel." In this disguise she went to Baltimore, where she has since resided. She has visited Norfolk on sever al occasions, but always in the guise of a man. Her child is still living and in the care of her mother, Mrs. Whitehurst. The wayward girl has never visited her home since the night she took her leave, but the mother has received several letters from her during the years she has been away. It is understood that her letters were not of a very pleas ant character. Notwithstanding the grieved and heartbroken mother has made every effort to reclaim the lost child, no success has met her effort in this direction. GIRL AND COACHMAN. A Familiar Romance Repeated In Nw York. Schenectady, N. Y., June 26 Josephine Gardner, a white girl 19 years old, and James Cooper, a negro coachman of the same age, who had been in the employ of tbe girl's father, a wealthy contractor of Auburn, were arrested in this city today on complaint of the Gardner girl's mother, who told the police that ber daughter bad eloped with the negro coachman with whom she had become infatuated. The couple were arrested at 114 rerry street where they had procured board and iodine. The girl re turned home with her mother this morning and Cooper ,was detained until tonight, when he was released on his promise to quit the city at once. Miss Gardner's father is William Gardner, a prominent citizen of Auburn, bhe is not only handsome, but well educated and accomplished. When she left home Thursday her parents thought she was going to visit a friend in Glens Falls. In stead she met Cooper and fled with him to this city. Knowledge of tneir elopement came to the parents through a note sent to the girl by Cooper which was picked up by her father. When placed under arrest they did not deny that they had eloped, but told the detective that they intended to be married today. - i . A Shameful Act. Raleigh Times: Virginia has a sensation in which a minister, a judge and a cowhide fimirfls. Tf seems that Judge Campbell had some liquor cases betore biro and 1 M 1 WW - ney. . u. Crawford wrote an article criticising severely tbe .fad for his decision and really cast aspersions upon his character. The minister was then arrested on the oharge of contempt. This action, however, was finally diRmiHRPd hv the Judge, but the latter followed this up by cowhiding Dr. Crawford. Such conduct on the part of a judge is a scandal and a di State. When judges find the law inadequate 'o protect them, what is to be expected of other prople? Tt-' .1 i . . uh juuge wno swore to uphold tbe law has now been guilty of a crime that is punishable under the' laws of v irginia with a term in the peniten tiary. He ought to be prosecuted.
