Elopement Sensation. A MARBIED SOCIETY LADY'S ALLEGED FLIGHT WITH A TRAVELING AGENT. A Lowell, Mass., telegram to the New York Herald says: Lowell has the biggest sensation of the season on {ts hands just at present. A certain young married lady, one of the belles ot the city and wife of one of the wealthiest And most prominent eltizens, has eloped with a traveling agent. The clreumstances are the talk of the town, but the names are only whis- ered. The lady was prominent in society and in charitable and religious work, and was an officer of a club formed exclusively of the ladies of the city. The husband is a member of one of the Massachusetts Yacht clubs, and, with his wite, has attended this season ‘most of the eralsers in eastern Waters. They have traveled together feronrh and extensively in ‘country. cently, “it Is said,” they have ai ‘about & nuinber of matters, and, although residing in the same house on the most fashionable street in the city, have spoken to each other only when in general society and when such conver- gation beeame ne to prevent gossip. ‘A few days ago the wife made a visit to Lex- ington and there met her lover, and since then has not _been seen or heard of by her husband. It issaid that he will make nogreat effort to learn her whereabouts or induce her to return. An Insult to the Papacy. MR. O'BRIEN, M.

BUYING OLD HOTEL REGISTERS FOR AUTO onarHs, From the Savannah News. “What do you suppose that man wanted?” asked a Pulaski house clerk yesterday of a News reporter. A neatly-dressed and shrewd-looking young man had just turned away and was lighting a cigar. He had been talking earnestly in an undertone for some minutes, and the Newsman thought perhaps the stranger wanted to borrow a few dollars. “No, he does not want to borrow, but had rather buy,” replied he of the sparkling Koh-l- noor. “And you might guess your tecth loose before guessing what he wanis to bu: tinued the hotel clerk. “ He has just m: an offer for the old register of this house, “What would he do with them?

WHAT THE LYONS WEAVERS NEED TO CARRY ON THEIR WORK. The debate in the French chamber on the freb admission of cotton threads contained somd passages edifying to American consumers of French silks. M. Ballue, who is deputy for Lyons, said that the ind: of silk weaving ‘was going through a crisis which demanded the Attention of the government and of parliament, If the evil could not be remedied ti might be attenuated. The situation of the silk weavers had become intolerable, The « made some concessions.

Ballue contended in order to enable the Lyons silk weavers focompete with their foreign competitors, it Was requisite to allow the free Importation into France ofthe lish cotton threads used in the manufacture of silk stuff.

Jouglez examined the question from the the general interests of the country. He contended that the admission of cot ton threads would not be of any very great ben- EBL to the silk trade of L-vons, and would prove Richard Wadding- sald that the govern- ment should adopt the measure demanded by M.
