THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY. MAY 22, 1889; LOVE LEAPS THE BARRIERS. — The Old Story of Parental Frowns and Youthful Ardor. AN ELOPEMENT AT LINCOLN. The 8ame Darling Chestnut and the Bame Vengeance-Swenaring Papa Who Wants to Drink Hot Blood. LANCOLN BURRAU oF TR OMAnA Ban, 1020 P Staeer, } May 2L The sensation of Sunday was the elope- mont of a couple of young people of “Uni- versity Place,” whose marriage was solemn- fzed by Rev. Minehart during the afternoon in east Lincoln. It is altogether probable that, in & way, this will prove to be another case of repenting at leisure—not that the contracting parties do not love wisely and well, but because their marriage is illegal. For several months past D, W. Danielson and Rebecca Beckman courted under diffi- culties. Rebecca's father bitterly opposed young Danielson and did everything within bis power to wean his daughter from her at- tachment, but all to no purpose. On last Saturday the young man went to -Wilber and secured the nccessary license. He called for Rebecea at an appointed place and together they repaired to tho residence of Rev. Minenart, who glanced at the license and taking everything as rec. pronounced them husbaud and During _ the evening tho bride’s father got wind of the affair, and he l)mceeded to storm and pull hair, He prom- sed to wreak vengeance on his son-in-law at the first opportunity, and possibly, he now has his opportunity. The young people are in Fairbury visiting friends, unconscious of their dilemma. Bear in mind that the license was sccured in Saline county, while section 4, chapter 52, of the compiled statutes of Ne- braska reads as follows: “‘Previous to the solemnization of any marriage in this state, @ license for that purpose must be obtained from the probate judge of the county wherein the marriage takes place.” Is He L cent ? Dundy county's sensational rape case has found its way into the supreme court. In this case a Mr. Orin M. Skinner was charged with having commited rapo on the person of Rhoda A. Rogera. ‘The alleged crime took place on the 28th day of January, 1880, the particulars of which wero published in Tis EE at the time. Skinner was tried and con- vieted during the month_following, and sen- tonced to serve a term of two years in the state pen. The accused’s council came to the supreme court on a petition in _error, and asked a suspension of the sentence pen the hearing, which the court below den Still comes tho _plaintiff, who swoepingly al- leges error as shown in specified interroga- tions; instructions of the court; misconduct on the part of the jury; the verdict not tained by evidencc; that it was_contrar, law; misconduct on the part of the bailiff, and that the court crred in overruling the motion for a new trial. Meanwhile, how- ever, Skinner is serving the sentence as passed, but his counsel prays a roversal of the judgment; that execution of tho sen- teuce be arrested, and for anew trial. It seems that Skanner has friends who believe him innocent, and they are moving for a speedy hearing, and that justice so dear to all who are falsely accused. Civil Service Kxammation.
