PRETTY WILFUL DORA.
SHE DESERTS HER HUSBAND OF A
DAY AND RUNS AWAY.
The Romance of a Beautiful Waiter Girl
and Her Old, Ugly, Rich Lover—Mar
ried in the Morning and Away by
Night.
"When a woman won't she won't, and
there's an end on' it," but few girls,
pretty girls, girls with rich parents, well
educated and refined, would prefer to
wait on guests in a public dining room,
than to marry a rich man, even if he
was old and ugly.
Miss Dora Elliott is a remarkably
pretty brunette, who for several months
has been a waiter girl in a well-known
dining room in this city. She has by
her manner shown that she was very
well educated, and evidently not brought
up to such work. Inquiries recently re
ceived at a detective office here, how
ever, have resulted in bringing her into
considerable prominence, and brought
out a peculiar story of woman's force of
will.
Dora illliott lived in San Diego with
her parents in a handsome home, and
was petted and well treated, until an
old friend of her father's, a merchant
over 50 years of age, and as ugly as a
mud Hat and very rich, fell in love with
her. Her parents were delighted, and
insisted that Dora should marry him at
once. She refused; they insisted. She
swore she would never marry him, and
determined to make such a thing impos
sible. She had a friend, a chivalrous,
foolish young man named Rogers; his
first name is said to be George. She
told Rogers her story, and she asked
him to marry her formally, and so make
it absolutely impossible for her to wed
the hated suitor. Roberts was half in
love with her anyway, and at once con
sented. The license was quietly obtained,
and early one morning Dora became
Mrs. Rogers. There was not much of a
honeymoon, however, for the bride in
sisted on saying good-bye to her hus
band at once, and managing to get some
of her clothes out of her house, she
took the afternoon train for this city,
and assuming a fictitious name, she
sought employment, found that all she
could get to do was to wait on table, and
has since made her living that way.
Her parents were heartbroken over
her disappearance, and when Rogers in
his sorrow at losing his bride before she
was really his wife, went to them and
told what had happened, there was a
fresh storm. However, her parents
wanted her back, and so did Rogers,
and they employed detectives to ascer
tain her whereabouts. This has only
recently been done, and the father and
mother and husband of a day are ex
pected to arrive any day, to attempt to
induce the wilful beauty to go back witli
them. She is of age, however, and does
riot appear to be at all unhappy or de
sirous of giving up her independent
way of living.
If she won't, why, itissure she won't.
MOTHERHOOD.
An Unpublished Paper by Thomas de
Quincey.
[Some unpublished MSS. by Thomas de Quili
cey have recently oome to light. They have
been secured by tbe independent, and are now
In course of publication by that journal. The
following sketch is one of the most striking, i
The loveliest sight that a woman'a eye
opens upon in this world is tier first
born child; and the holiest sight upon
Which the eyes of God settle in almighty
sanction and perfect blessing is the love
which soon kindles between the mother
and her infant; mute and speechless on
the one side, with no language but tears
and kisses and looks. Beautiful is the
philosophy which irises out of that
reflection or passion connected with the
transition that has produced it. First
comes the whole mighty drama of love
purified ever more and more, how
often from grosser feelings, yet of ne
cessity through its very elements oscil
lating between the linite and the infinite ;
the haughtiness of womanly pride, so
dignilied, yet not always free from the
near contagion of error; the romance so
ennobling, yet not always entirely rea
sonable ; the tender dawn of ouening
sentiments pointing to an idea in all
this which it neither can reach noreould
long sustain. Think of the great storm
of agitation, and fear, and hope, through
which in her earliest days of woman
hood every woman must naturally pass
—fulfilling a laiv of her Creator, yet a
law which rests upon her mixed consti
tution ; animal, though indefinitely
ascending to what is non-animal—as a
daughter of man, frail and imperfect,
yet also as a daughter of God, standing
erect, with eyes to the heavens. Next,
when the great vernal passover of sex
ual tenderness and romance has fulfilled
its purpose, we see, rising as a phoenix
from this great mystery of ennobled
instincts, another mystery much more
profound, more affecting, more
divine —not so much a rapture
as a blissful repose of a Sabbath, which
swallows up the more perishing story of
the lirst; forcing the vast heart of fe
male nature through stages of ascent;
forcing it to pursue the transmigrations
of the Psyche from the aurelic condition
so glowing in its color, into the winged
creature which mixes with the mystery
of the dawn and ascends to the altar of
the infinite heavens; rising by a ladder
of light trom that sympathy which God
surveys with approbation; and even
more so as tie beholds it self-purifying
under his Christianity, to that sym
pathy which needs no purification, but
is the holiest of things on this earth,
and that in which God most reveals
himself through the nature of humanity.
How purified? And if it should be
answered, through and under Christi
anity, the fool in his heart would scoff
and say : What woman thinks of relig
ion in her youthful courtship? No; but
it is not what she thinks of, but what
thinks of her ;not what she contemplates
in consciousness, but what contemplates
her, and reaches her by a necessity of
social action. Romance is the product
of Christianity, but so is sentiment.
Well is it for the glorification of
human nature that through these holy
things the vast majority of women must
forever pass; well, also, that, by placing
i s sublime germs near to female youth,
God thus turns away by anticipation
the divinestof disciplines from the rapa
cious absorption of the grave. Time is
found, how often, for those who are
early summoned into rendering back
their glorious privilege, who yet have
tasted in its first fruits the paradise of
maternal love.
And, pertaining also to this part of
the subject. I «• ill tell you a result of
toy observatione f no light importance
to women.
It 19 this: Nineteen times out of
twenty i have remarked that the true
paradise of a female life in all ranks not
too elevated {or constant intercourse
with the children, is by no means the
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 26, 1890.
years of courtship, nor the earliest
period of marriage, but that sequestered
chamber of her experience in which a
mother is left alone through the day,
with servants, perhaps, in a distant part
of the house, and (God be thanked!)
chiefly where there are no servants at
all; in which she is attended by one
sole companion, her little iirst-born
angel, as yet clinging to her robe, im
perfectly able to walk, still more
imperfect in its prattling and innocent
thoughts, clinging to her, haunting her
wherever she goes as her shadow, catch
ing from her eye the total inspiration of
its little palpitating heart, and sending
to hers a thrill of secret pleasure so
often as its little lingers fasten on her
own. Left alone from morning to night
with this one companion, or even with
three, still wearing the graces of infancy
—buds of various stages upon tne self
same tree—a woman, if she has the
great blessing of approaching such a
luxury of paradise, is moving, too often
not aware that she is moving,
through the divinest section of
her life. As evening sets in,
the husband, through all walks of
life, from the highest professional down
to that of common labor, returns home
to vary her modes of conversation by
such thoughts and interests as are more
consonant with his more extensive ca
pacities of intellect. But by that time
her child or her children) will be repos
ing on the little couch, and in the morn
ing, duly as the sun ascends in power,
she sees before her a long, long day of
perfect pleasure in this society which
evening will bring to her, but which is
interwoven with every fibre of her sen
sibilities. This condition of noiseless, I
quiet love is that, above all, which God I
blesses and smiles upon.
Christmas Fare in Los Angeles.
Few people are aware of the table
delicacies obtainable for one's Christ
mas dinner in Los Angeles. Any one
who cares to take a look at the show
window of Illich's restaurant this morn
ing will find there, in addition to the
traditional turkeys and fowls of all
grades, artichokes, green peas, green
corn, fresh tomatoes, string beans,
celery, strawberries, and everything
known to the'table of the rich in the
month of June in the east. Of course,
oranges, grapes and other fruits are to
be found at all our fruit stands, and
these we do not particularize. All these
vegetables are grown in the open air,
and figure daily on the midwinter tables
of our citizens. There is probably no
place in the world where as large a
variety awaits the palate of the lover of
good cheer as in Los Angeles.
A National Event.
The holding of the World's Fair in a city
scarcely fifty years old will be a remarkable
event, but whether it will really benelit this na
tion as much as the discovery of the Restorative
Nervine b>- Dr. Franklin Miles is doubtful.
This is just what the American people need to
euro their excessive nervousness, dyspepsia,
headache, dizziness, sleeplessness, neuralgia,
nervous debility, dullness, confusion of mind,
etc. It acts like a charm. Trial bottles and
