ELOPED WITH NEPIIEW
Mrs. Simon Miller, Aged 48, Deserted
Her Husband for 24-Year-Old
Oliver P. Drake.
The usual kind of elooomeats where
the man of mature years disappears
with the romantic miss, bas been re
versed by a West Side couple. This
time a married woman of forty-eight
summers carried off her 24-year-old
nephew, or rather, joined him at Ha
z.lton, where for nearly two weeks
they have been living together as man
end wife. The parties to the affair
are not of the lower strata of society,
either, but are of a well-to-do cIrbs of
supposed respectability. The case is
an unusual one.
Mrs. Simon Miller, of Brown's place,
43 yenrs old and the mother of three
children, one of whom is married, is
the woman tn the case. The second
party to the liaison is Oliver P. Drake,
a lather 2-1 years old who until recently
lived in the double dwelling next
door to the Miller's at No. 1018 Brown's
place. Young Drake lived with his
mother who is a sister of Mrs. Miller's
husband.
Last night the gay young latbarlo
and bis aged, plain, but still well pre
served Duloina, were locked behind
the bars of the Central station house.
They were not languishing, either, but
seemed to aecept their confinement as
one of the necessary features of the ro
mance and are hopeful of final libera
tion.
They were arrested yesterday in
Hazleton and brought to this city by
Lieutenant Davis of the police depart
uiont
The details of the story offer some
food for amazement : Simon Miller,
the lawful husband, is a fireman and
earns good wages at the Mount
Pleasant colliery. While he and his
wife for several yenrs have not openly
displayed an intense affection, their
neighbors supposed them to be as con
tented as most married folk. For the
last few months the couple bad fre
quent differences, in which the chil
dren sided who toe rattier.
Recently young Drake displays ! an
unusual fondness for bis aunt and was
forbidden the house. The neighbors
wondered at this, as Mrs. Miller s
beauty is not such as would make
even a man of her own years lose his
head or heart. She is slender, which
might be overlooked in her redeeming
good ngure; her hair is Intensely black
and her face oval and plain. She wears
spectaoles, She is very active and
bright, which two characteristics
captnred Nephew Drake.
During September young Drake left
the city. I wo weeks later, Ss pt 29,
Mrs. Millar disappeared leaving a note
addressed to her husband and contain
ing simply the information that she
bad left her late bed and board for
good and aye. Yonng Drake's mother
and the deserted husband put this and
that together and diagnosed the case
as one of elopement
Lacu of the departed unfortunately
left behind a good photograph. The
mention or ponce might spoil the ro
mance of the eiialr. but nevertheless
Scranton's ohief was consulted and
scattered the photos broadcast in this
vicinity. Tuesday, word was received
that the pair were residing ia Luzel
lou. Mr. Miller proenred a warrant
for bis wife s arrest on the ground that
she was cohabiting wrongfully, and
another warrant for Drake on tho same
count. The wife was also charged with
having certain household goods in her
possession belonging to her late lord
and master.
Lieutenant Davis, of Soranton, and
Huzleton s chief of police called on Mrs
Miller and found her snugly ensconced
in a suite of three rooms. The sail
was made shortly betore dinner, and
when nephew Drake appeared for noon
day refreshment the eouple were placed

last night denied the charges against
her. She alleged that she left ner bus

preparing to take boarders in iiazioton

said, was her first and only boarder,

Bell's Mill Was Ruined by the Water

Damage Done in This City by the
Water.
The severe rain storm whioh began
to descend at an early bonr yesterday
morning and continued in torrent
sheets until noon, caused more damage
at Jermyn, which had been selected as
the place of the annual parade of the
Father Mathew aooteties of Laokawan
na oounty, than any other place heard
from.
About daylight the people of the
town began to got uneasy at the swell-
ng volume of water that swept down
Rush brock creek, whioh runs through
the center of the place. Between 5
and 6 o'clock the weeping skies let
loose their flood gates, and the creek
began to overspread its banks at the
stone culvert on first avenue. A
patch of woods on the hillside, above
he town, owned dv Joiin a &mitn.iuai
contained an Immense quantity of
logs and loose underbrnsii, red tbe
freshet with driftwood, that blocked
up tbe creek and sent tbe scattered
waters on a mad course through sur
rounding lots, tearing deep gullies
and flowing into neighboring osllars,
tilling them and destroying the con
tents before the owners had time to
remove them to a place of safety.
Iu some houses that are built in low
places tbe flood entered tbe rooms on

bell's mill assaulted.
Bull's plaulng mill, between First
and Socond avenues, is built on the
edge of the creek and against the builJ
ing the logs and driftwood floated
blocking up the stream. A hundred
feet below, the mouth of the First
avenue culvert was choked up and
denied an outlet to the angry torrent.
Tbe immense volume thus dammed up
furiously broke loose and submerged
over two acres in the upper end of the
borough.
Malu street was totally impassable,
the water reaching a level with the
door stops of the houses. Bell s planing
mill suffered the greatest loss. The
foundation walls on one Bide were
washed out and the yard and mill ru
ined. The machinery was loosened and
partially destroyed. Tbe cellars of Dr.
Shields, D. LaBue, Mrs. Henry Davis,
A. F. Battenberg, Thomas Walker, W.
O. Hill. Nicholas Clark. J. D. Pritch-
ard, and mucy others were soaked and
their oontents destroyed.
Foot bridges, planks, uprooted tress,
and stumps and logs came down tbe
creek and assisted in the destruction of
property by blocking up the stream.
The force of the water rushed with
such effeot that 200 feet of tbe Ontario
and Western railroad tracks were
washed out. A long line of track was
in danger of going into tbe river, but a
train of cars was run on it ana with
stood tbe attack of the water. When
the flood had subsided the train of curs
had settled down two feet lower than
grade.
tbesident's car delayed.

passenger train to which was attached

field and other offiotnls on a tour of in
spection, was stnlled by the flood above
Jermyn, while traffic was interrupted
on tbe road for two hours.
The scope of tbe flood extended from
Bell s mill down Main street to Bat
tenberg's furniture store, then in the
rear of Slocker & Co. 's and Winter &
Co.'s stores to the river, cutting off all
communication with the Ontario and
Western depot.
A large force of men set to work and
attacked tbe debris in the creek with
axes and pikes, and about 1 o'clock in
the afternoon the water resumed its
natural course, and the streets were put
in passable condition. The damage in
Jermyn alone is estimated at between
$5,000 and $10,000.

Gavs a Good Interpretation of the Bale
at the Academy of Mailo.
Sidney Drew enssted the role of Co
lonel Mulberry Sellers in "Tbe Gilded
Age' to a small but well pleased audi
enee at the Academy of Musio last
night. It is a character that the late
John T. Raymond made famous and in
it Mr. Draw is destined to win new
dramatlo laurels.
His impersonation of the erratic but
thoroughly whole souled colonel was
excellent and evoked tbe warmest ap
plause from those present.
Mrs. Sidney Drew, or Gladys Rankin

gramme bad an appropriate character
in tbe hysterical Laura Hawkins and
was seen to good advantage in it.
Several members of tbe support com'

ROWNEDJN ITER
For Once, tbe Total Abstainers Wanted to
Fnt It Aside.
HERE WAS NO PARADE AT JERISYN
In the Morning There Was Too Much
Water Overhead and in the After
noon the Same Condition Existed
Underfoot Parade Was Held at
Pittston Notwithstanding Elements.
It Was a Creditable Display.
The annual parade of the Father
Matthew societies, of Laokawanna
eoanty, that had been arranged to oo
our yesterday at Jermyn, was spoiled
by tbe rain and bad to be postponsd.
It is the first time in almost twenty-
five years that rain bas interfered with
the 10th of Ootober celebration of tbe
Soranton Diocesan union. The ill-luck
whioh prevented the parade will be felt
most seriously by the congregation of
tbe Jerinvn parish.
Lxtensivx preparations bad been
made by Rev. Father Lynott for tbe
picnic at Elm Grove, and unless there
is a large attendance today the picnio
supplies will go to waste. The pro
ceeds were intended for the treasury
of the building fund of tbe new Catho
lic church.
Rev, Father Lynott sent out notices
to all societies that could to attend to
day and parade. It is thought that
nmcient number will attend to redeem
the aff'tir from total failure.
At 9 o'clock it beoume apparent that
the rain had oome to stay and President
J. H. Devine, after a consultation with
Father Lynott and some of tbe urn
cials of the Delaware aud Hudson rail
road, declared tbe parade off until to
day,
PAEADB AT PITTSTON.
The elements did not interfere with
tbe parade of the Lnz rne societies of
the Catholic Total Abstinence nnion at
Pittston yesterday afternoon, althongh
for a time it looked very muoh as if
they would.
Despite tbe dark, ominous, clonny
and pouring rain wmou descended un
ceasingly in tbe morning, tbe commit
tee having in charge tbe arrangements
for the parade never for a moment lost
faith in tbe belief that Providence
would not compel them to abandon
tbe work they had undertaken to ac
complish, and cause them to suffer dis-
ppolntment.
They were not mistaken, for by 11
o'clock the downpour ceased, tbe dark
heavy clouds passed away and a bright
and clean tky prevailed for the re
malnder of tbe day. At tbe noon
hour arrived, the out-of-town societies
began to arrive and when 2 o clock, the
drill, t .la.tlnn n w ( Hn (kn.n mava

men from the iron bridge to the west

PARADE IK MOTION.
The parade was somewhat slow in
starting, bnt when ones under way
everything passed off smoothly. The
parade was headed by clergy of tbe
dioeese, and next cams Burgess
Maloney and members of the town
oouncil in carriages. The secret so
cieties on foot followed, eaoh beaded
by a band, and presented a highly
creditable appesraucs by their manly,
soldierly bearing.
ibe eolnm marohed north as far as
Mr. Bolin's residence, then counter-
marshed back as far as William street,
from William to Cbnrch and Church
to Broad, down Broad to Main, then
south as far as the West End, where
tbe parade was dlsmiBsid.
As it passed along the street tbe air
was enliveaed by the musio of the
several bands and the cheers of the
spectators.
