DID THEY ELOPE?--The Marshalltown Press says: "Mr. O.F. Beeler and Miss Addie Spillman came up from Grinnell Wednesday, and after procuring a license were quietly married, Rev. Barclay Hampton tying the nuptial knot. The couple are said to be residents of a township adjacent to Grinnell, and rumor has it that objections to their marriage were entertained by relatives of one or both of them and that an elopement was planned and successfully carried out."
