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.
There are now nearly one hundred orphans
applying to this institution to be received.
What grand good, liberal gifts wou:d do !
