The Connie of True Lova ban St Boothly at Kami o the Kootenay Star reports a sensational elopement at Kamloops. Last saturday morning there waa a Young Man on the East bound of Presa who showed signs of great but subdued grief at the station it Revelstoke. Inquiry led to the information that he Hod been a clerk in a store at Kamloops i and that morning attempted and succeeded for time in carrying off the Young Jady of his love a Pirl barely in Ber teens perhaps not More than 12 Yea of be. Tho Youthful coupled engaged quarters in a Pullman and intended go ing to Banff National Park to spend Honey Moon and perhaps had Bop a that they might find some minister to make them inseparably one. Their fond Hopes of Elysian Lisa were rudely shattered at the celebrated where the Golden Spike was driven to commemorate the completion of their elopement. Here the step father of lobe Young girl put in an appear Anc and exercised his paternal authority. There was a scene but the father was firm and the Lover wan disappointed. Two trains carried rach one of Ohe Elop ers in a different direction the Young Man continuing bin Honey Xiu trip to Banff Alona lamenting his sad Date and Witten last heard of was declaring Bis Young Hopes were ruthlessly blighted and life would be one bitter Blank in future. The girl waa sent to a Convent at Kamloops so report says but Man aged to and started for Banff Oil foot along the Nunny Banks of the Thompson River. It waa thought for it time she had Given a tragic ending to the affair by drawing nere Elf her cloak being found the River but some cowboys saw her about ten Miles from Home and informed Ber father of her where about Massey Harris co. Tho new officers and directors of the amalgamated firms. Toronto i the officers of the new took them by no Ordinary Surprise As they had never been White men before and they looked upon us and everything about us with Home Awe he Well As curiosity. We smoked the pipe of peace together and i distributed some presents. When we explained to them a Best we could that we were going Down Stream they All raised their voices against it. Among other dangers they indicated _ that inhabiting the lower River were Many tribes of bad indians numerous a the who would not Only kill us bub eat us. We should never get Back alive and friends coming to look after us would unjustly Blama them for our death. All this frightened out men to such a degree that i had reluctantly to consent to our return which under Tho circumstances wan the Only alternative. I Learned afterwards that it would have been madness in us to have made any further Advance unprepared As we we for such an it waa not till the year 1848 that Campbell was enabled to determine whither the great River which be had discovered flowed. In bad been conjectured that it waa the Colville River the Mouth of which had Bepo noted some years previously by meath. Case and Simpson on the Arctic coast but this proved to be incorrect in 184s Campbell established a Post which he named fort Selkirk at the place where he had formerly met the Indiana and continuing bin voyage descended Tho Stream to Tho Confluence of the Porcupine River which to ascended Sros Aing the Rocky mountains within the Arctic Circle and re turning by the Mackenzie to fort Simpson the Headquarters of the Mackenzie River diet riot. Thus was the identity of the Felly with the Yukon which Hud been meanwhile reached by Way of Tho Porcupine in 18-16 established and the knowledge gained that the Yukon itself wan in reality Tho upper part of the Kwik Pulc do covered Laorae years previously at its Mouth on butnus by the russians. In 1852 fort Selkirk was raided and its slender Garrison driven out though without Loaa of Lite by a party of Coalt Indiana. The forts on the upper Polly River and on frn Coa Lake bad been abandoned in Envor of those on the More easily travelled route of the Porcupine and the whole of Thia great country reverted to it Pristine Solitude. Even the geographical remits of Campbell s Jour Neys appear to have fallen out of sight for though clearly shown on Tome of arrows Mich a old maps later geographer a ignoring those had preferred to adopt hearsay account spa the country and on them to draw imaginary Marti with new outlines. When in 1887, or. G. M. Dawson of the geographical Survey determined to follow the old route to the headwaters of Tho Yukon or. Campbell s description and to Ketch of this route which in gladly furnish to formed the Best and Only tvs worthy authority and proved to been Benti ally Correct the country waa found without inhabitants no sign of the old Trail from Frances Lake to the Pelly remained nud it qua with am difficulty that the overthrown Sites Rotthe old Puatu Wero recognized. The prospector in search of Gold be expected to a the next to investigate Bhe numerous which Drain toward the Liard and Pelly for Gold in greater Quantity exists on All thess Rivers but at a later data the fair country through which they flow is destined to be More thickly peopled a Hardy population and to form it not uni port parti of Tho Dominion.
