WEDNESDAY, HOVEMBER 12. CoL Brecklnridge's Romance. A Story of Eis Life That is Causing a Sensation in Kentucky. A dispatch from Louisville, Ky ., says: A story, the romance of the life of Col. Owen C. ' Breckiuwdge, 000168 to light to-day, and is causin g a great sensation throughout the State. He is a nephew of Congressman W. C. P. Breckinridge, of Kentuckey. a relative of Congressman. Breck in ridge, of Arkansas; and is of the famous rami fy of that name of this State. For romance and strangeness it is excelled by few tales of fiction. Colonel Breckin ridge was born and reared in Kentucky, and when a young man was a dashing, brilliant and handsome fellow, a favor ite in the great families of the bluest blood and most aristocratic people in the Bine Grass region. Being of a strong ly romantic and poetic nature, he had not more- than reaches his- majority be fore he met*, wooed and married a beaatifai girl from St. Louis. Tbere; being some opposition on the part of his family, it is said that he was secret ly married tinder the name of Owen, and lived with her most happily for ose year without his people having a sospkion of his marriage. A child, a girt baby, was born, and its life caused the mother's death. The father, heart broken over his irreparable loss, came back to Kentucky, where he remaioed a few years, and then went to California. Hb little one. in the mean time was placed in care of its grandparents in St. Louis, the father contributing most gen erously to its support and education. In California, Mr. Breckinridge by his wit and brilliancy became the social favorite of the Pacific slope, and was elected and served several terms in the Legislature; Two years after his first wi?Vs death Mr. Breckinridge met the beautiful heiress, Miss Tevis, the daughter of Lloyd Tevis, Esq., former ly of Kentuckey, and now a ten mil lionaire of California. A courtship followed, and they were married. All this time the first marriage was kept a profound secret, and the exist ence of a daughter was, of course, un known, she not even knowing her father by sight, and was ignorant of her right name. The second union was, like the first, of comparatively abort duration, for, after bearing two children, ^Irs. Breckinridge died. The second affliction nearly killed Mr. Breckinridge, and for some time he. wandered around the world attempting to forget his sorrow in the excitement of foreign travel. He, however, re turned to San Francisco several years later, .devoted himself to the practice, of Saw. His two children by the secood wife were reared and educated by the Tevises, and the first born was fast maturing in years and beauty in her far-off home at St Louis. It is said that the Tevis family gave Mr. Breckin ridge $30,000 :n consideration of his allowing them the full charge of their grandchildren, and with this, in for tunate business affairs and speculation, be made a very comfortable fortune. ' It was seventeen years after his first marriage that Col. Owen Breckinridge. then a man of possibly forty years of age, married for the third. It seems to have been as fortunate and happy a marriage as either of the two preceding, and all went well for a time. But the last chapter of the romance, the denou* ment, came lately. Mr. Breckinridge, who is a man of fine character, admira ble courage, and with a warm, impulsive heart, never forgot the little one the ofspring of his first love, and, deter mined to make all reparation in his p >wer, went to St. Louis, made himself krrowo to his daughter, by this time a splendid specimen of beautiful woman hood, and told her of the past and of his desire to take her back home with him.. This she readily consented to do; and father and daughter started for California. Upon their arrival Miss Breckinridge was introduced to ber stepmother, the third Mrs. Breck inridge. It is said that this brought about a disclosure of the entire history of the husband's past life, and, for some reason not told, caused a separa tion between Mr. Breckinridge and his present wife. Ail of this at this time j is being told throughout the State, and is causing the greatest sensation in Lexington and the surrounding country. Cleveland as a.Propnet. New York, Nov. 11.?The Son pub lished, a dispatch from Denver this ; morning giving an interview with ex Judge A. W. Rucker, a prominent i Democrat of Colorado, in which the ex- j Judge relates a conversation with Pres ident Cleveland at the While Hou?e previous to the election. Mr Ruck?r j asserts that Secretary Endicott and Sen- ! ator Blackburn, of Kentucky, were present, and that Mr. Cleveland fore- j told bis 0 7d defeat. Jndg Rucker says of Cleveland in j the Son : *On October 27 L was taken j into tb : presence of President Cleve- j land, and found him conversing with ! Senator Blackburn and Secretary En - | dicott. 1 told him the Democrats of j Col>rado were very much interested in j bis re-election, and asked him what he j thought of his chances. He at once j began talking of New York, and said : j Mayor Hewitt is running for the pur-1 pose of defeating me. He does not j like me, and never did. Grant is a j go >d Democrat, but his desire for suc- | ces; has overshadowed all other in terests, and theD Tammany never liked i me. Governor Hill is a good Demo- ! cr it, but also too anxious to win, and i I will be traded off on his account on opportunity beyond a doubt. Now, ! with ail tbese conditions against me, how can I hope to carry New York V Then cou';r?uip<r he said: 'I aai I strongly of the opinion that we will lose New York through trading for Hewitt and Grant and Governor H ill. 1 dso . concede Connecticut to the Republi cans, while Indiana is too close to cal culate on. Of course New Jersey will prove Democratic. Personally I do j not care about the result, tut I would ! regret very roueh to see the Democratic party sustain defeat at this time/ Editor Pope of the Register says : j *A nice sebool m arm, they tell us. can j kiss as sweet as any other woman. I Who knows Y Why is a sheet of writing paper like a lazy dog ? A sheet of writing paper ; in an iuk-liued plan, and an inclined plan is a slope up. A kiss is worth a thousand kicks. Carlisle Cannot be Crowded Out. A Cincinnati dispatch says that Hon. John G. Carlisle was asked about tl e ! legality of ice perforated ballots cact i for him in certain precioeffs of K?oton ! and Campbell counties. He said tie ; perforations did not destroy '.he legality j of ths tickets aud that they would cot j be counted out. It did not make any difference what the color or appearance of the tickets were so long as they were of the required dimensions. Mr. Hamilton, his opponent, might have had a bull dog printed on his tickets. Should the perforated ballots be thrown out. they will "not aggregate a thousaod, which will leave the Speaker a majority of 5,000 In the history of the United States but two Presidents have been defeated for re-election, Martin Vau Bureo in 1840 and Grover Cleveland in 1888 It is not an uninteresting coincidence that the successful candidate in the secoud contest should be the graadson of ihe successful candidate iu the first. Moreover both defeats were iucurred on commercial questions. The New York Times says : 'Van Buren was beateu as a result of the panic of 1837, from the effects of which the country bad not recovered at the close of his administra tion. Mr. Cleveland, on the other hand, has been defeated while the coun try is in a condition of great prosperity, from fear that that prosperity might be interrupted by the adoption of the re form in the tariff which he had recom mended aod his party had endeavored to effect. It is to be hoped that the parallel may go no further.' A special dispatch to the Greenville News, ander date of the 10th inst., says it is understood that within two weeks Miss Floride Lee, the great granddaughter of John G. Calhoun and granddaughter of the late Thomas G. Clemson, will begin action to recover the Fort Hill property left the State by Mr Clemson for ao agricultural col lege, and which proved an issue in the nomination for members of the General Assembly. Miss Lee claims the pro perty as the direct lineal descendant of John C. Calhoun, and' also because Mrs. Clemson, her grandmother, in de vising the property to her husband did not execute the power contained in the will of* her mother, Mrs. John C Cal houn. The preceedtngs will be in the form of a motion to set aside the will or so much of it as gives the Fort Hill property to the State for an agricultural college. It is presumed that pending this action the Legislature will take no action. The only Democratic roosters we have seen this year are in the North Carolina newspapers, which have ample right to be proud, and joyful over the good work they did;"for they not only held the old North State firmly in her place as part-of the Solid Sooth, but increased the majority and gained a con gressman or two. Tennessee did fairly well, Virginia barely saved her credit and the electoral ticket and West Vir ginia went over to the enemy horse, foot and dragoons. Of the four con tested Southern States North Carolina is the only one that emerged from the battle with the right to hold her head high and scream a challenge and de fiance to the world. Two Millions in the Balance. The New York Sun estimates that ?2.000,0 0 of value trembled in the balance of this year's election. Among the winners Senator Quay, chairman of the Republican National Committee, is believed to have won ?100,000 indi vidually and as a member of the Phila delphia syndicate ; Stephen B French is ?20,000 ahead ; Joe Rickey, a Mis souri horseman, lost $30,000, and ex Gov Hauser, of Montana, is out ?10, 000; Ed Stokes comes out $10,000 ahead by his bets on Hill and Grant ; Frank L. Huntoon, of the Hoffman House Club, won $20,000 from John G. Mahoney; Col. Swords, sergeant-at arms of the National Republican Com mittee, picks up ?40.000 or ?50,000, some of which is his own money and some of which belongs to Quay or some of the Philadelphians. Congressman W. L. Scott, of Penn sylvania is a heavy loser, the only one among the Democratic campaign mana gers. John Daly, the horseman, loses ?30,000, and Col. William L. B own, of the New York Daily News, is out about ?40,000. A curious winner is the man who gave a friend $50 on con dition that he was to receive back one cent for every vote that Harrison had more than Cleveland in the State of New York. A dispatch from Quebec says John C. Eno, a defaulting New York bank o-Beer, won ?20,000 iu bets on Har rison. Thanksgiving for the Orphans. As our annual day of rejoicing approaches, Christian people should not forget the or phans. When the people assemnle on that day to thank God, let them thank him with their substance. One of the institutions de serving of such remembrante is the Thorn well Orphanage, at Clinton, S. C. Although a Presbvterian Institution, more than half its inmtttes are from other denominations, Bap tists, Methodists, Lutherans and Episcopa lian? being represented. Its children are from ten different States, mainly of course, from South Carolina and Georgia. These childreo deserve well of the people. Tney cheerfully labor with their hands to help themselves, in kitchen, laundry, farm and elsewhere. Gifts of provisions, money, can all he used. A* there is no endowment to this institution, it depends on the charitable for support. Rtv. Wro P Jacobs is the President. Send gifts to him, a? Clinton, S C.
