A CURAN FRUIT DEALER LEAVES HIS FAMILY AND DISAPPEARS WITH A YOUNG GIRL. _ Norfolk, Va., is alive with a scandal sens tion in consequence of the elopement of John Isidore,of that city,and) Miss Minnie Bur roughs, of Portsmouth, a beautiful young lady of Trycars. Isidore is a native of Cuba, and was educated on that island to the profession of the law. He joined the insurgents, and the only one of 13 prisoners who eseaped death at the Hands of the Spanish authorities. Leavy ing the island he settled at Jacksonville, Fla., and engaged in the fruit business. While there he married a lady, a native of New York, now living, and by whom he has two iu ing children. He came to Norfolk last in perfect destitution, and stopped at the who residence of Mr. Daniel Barker, florist, furnished capital for Isidore to comm smatl fruit business in Norfolk. The business appeared to prosper, and eventually another store Was bou; out, under the Masonic Tem. ple, and a ladies and gentlemen's saloon added to his confectionery business. Here, toe, all appeared to go well until the Christ. mas holidays, when the rush of customers re- quired additional help in the store, and a very pretty maiden of Portsmouth was employed Although Miss Burroughs was only a few weeks in his Soper e guilty love was mutually formed, which culminated in the absconding of Isidore aud Miss Burroughs on the Baltimore steamer, to what destination isat present unknown. — Isidore started for Philadelphia, ostensibly to buy goods for the spring trade.'and took with him not only the profits made in the two stores but also’ bor- rowed from Mr. Barker every dollar he could command. Miss Burroughs left under the pretext of visitin, tion now is that the gui ers on the steamship Richi for Para, Brazil, several circumstane: are adduced to'show that this theory is cor- rect. Mrs. Isidore and the children have been sent to her friends in New York by the kind- ness of Mr. Barker. Miss Burroughs was wn- derstood to be engaged to be married toa very respectable young gentleman who for years had been devoted to her. ABDUCTED BY HER MOTHER.—The N. Y. Tritune of the wth says: Emil } a a young widow in Germany, in 1873, an brought her to America, leaving her’ only child, a little girl, then about a year old, in the care of his parents in Germany. He started a restaurant at No. 46 Delancy street, and in the follow ing year his parents ‘and the little girl followed him to thiscountry. About eighteen months ago Mr. Mayer discovered that his wife Bertha was not true to him. He insti- tuted proceedings for a divorce and obtained one. A year ago he separated from her, and the custody of the chifd was given to him! Tae mother has borne a bad reputation since the eparation. Yesterday afternoon the little girl was playing in front.of the restaurant, and s soon afterwards missing. A man, known to have been intimate with the mother, had been seen just. before, by a neighbor, and the suspicions of the father that his wife had abduct the child were further confirmed an hour after by the receipt of the following telegram: haye the child. It is allright. Bertha.” Mr. Mayer immediately ave notice to the police, but up to a late hour last night the search for the missing child had not been suc AMERICAN LocoMOTIVES FOR Russta—The English steamship,the Wickham and Timor, are being filled up at Philadelphia with car- goes consisting entirely of locomotives. They are to carry out to Russia forty powerful en- gines, with tenders, built at the Baldwin works, in that city, within the lasi three months in fulfilment of a contract with the Russian government. They are designed to replenish the motive power on the Russian railroads, and take the place of the engines worn out by the wear and tear incident to the transportation of troops, war material and Supplies during the late campaign in Turkey. A PERJURED WITNESS.—A dispatch to the Wilmington (Del.) Every Evening and Com- mercial from Southwark, Pa., states that James Smith, the alleged husband of Mrs. Kate Smith, the accuser of the two colored men, Samuel Chambers and George Collins, now confined in New Castle jail under sen: tence of death for an outrageous assault on irs. Smith, hear Middletown, Del., has yolun- tarily confessed to having commitied ury in his testimony given at the trial in Novem- ber last. The men were to have been hung on the 2d of March next, but it is possible this development will cause a respite from the governor. Smith has been arrested and taken Ms ‘Wilmington The woman has not yet been ound. DECEPTION AND DEATH.—A Cincinnati En- quirer special from Richmond, Va., Feb. 18, says iss Minnie MeKenn beautiful and lovely is A lady of this city, died suddenly yesterd: seems that she commitied sui- cide by taking morphine. She was perfectly well Saturday evening, and to-day she was lowered tothe grave. It is understood she had been betrothed to Mr. Lewis Cawthorn, a clerk in the large clothing house of Solomon, Wise & Co., and that he proved faithless, breaking the engagement. This afternoon it is reported that Cawthorn, in remorse of conscience, took laudanum, and is lying at the point of death. A CONFESSED EMBEZZLER.—J. F. Benton. late treasurer of the Merchant's Trust and Loan Company of St. Louis, was put upon his trial yesterday for embezzlement and larceny of $20,000. He was permitted to withdraw his plea of not guilty and substitute a plea of non vult contendere as to the embezzlement, and a nolle prosequi was entered as to the lareeny.
