-ROMANCE QF A CARD It Was forHer Husband's Comb ing Wedding to a Hand some Young lady. HE LEFT IT IN HIS POCKET.; Frank E. Hill Arrested in California on a Charge of Bigamy. BIS FAST CABEER IN THIS STATE. Deserted Lj His First Wife, Cash Soothed His Feelings. 1HREATS OF SUICIDE UNFULFILLED Frank E. Hill, who was arrested recently in Los Angeles, CaL, on a charge of big amy, was a lormer resident of Somerset,Pa., and is remembered in connection with an elopement scandal that occurred at the lat ter place several years ago. It is stated that Hill there married a young lady named Woods, who had been left a large amount of money. Hill at that time was one of the lively young men about town. He was young and good looking, and it was an open secret that he married Miss Woods for her money. After the inarriare he neglected his wife, and she fell in with a young law yer named Marchand, with whom she eloped. The couple were arrested by De tective O'Mara at Jacksonville, Flo,, and were brought back. Hill threatened a suit, but his wife paid him $10,000 U cash and purchased a drug store for him ou condition that he would not oppoe a separation. The separation was obtained, and Hill lived a gay life in Pittsburg until his money wa gone, when he went to Scottdale and reiided with his mother. Later on he disappeared from view here, and now he has turned up in California. A special to The Dispatch from Los J Angeles says: Identified by One of His Wires. Frank H Hill, who was arrested on a tel egram charging him with bigamy, from ihe Sherifl of San Bernardino county, early yesterday morning was brought face to face with Deputy SheriffBrown, of the above mentioned county, who came after him in the dual capacity of uncle of Hill's latest prospective bride and an officer of the law. The mcetinc took place in the office of the Chief of Police, and when Hill was taken into the office Brown said to him: "Frank, you swore by all the saints to me that you are not a married man. Is that true?" "I am not married," responded Hill. "It I am, produce my wife." "Come in, Mrs. Hill," saH Deputy Brown, open ing the door ieading to the chiefs private office. A i oung lady, dressed in a tasty, gray traveling suit, of medium stature, pretty face, dark-brown hair and large blue eyes,"in -which tears were standing, stepped into the room. "I am this man's wife," she said, pointing to Hill, "and he dare not deny it." Hill turned pale, an-1 with his features working convulsively, glared 3t the woman tor a nicmci:, and thea said: "I irive in; she's mv wife." Frank E. Hill went to San Bernardino tome three months ago and Fe.-ured employ ment in Dr. Bedford's drugstore. He claimed to be the son of the famous Judge Hill, of Somerset, Pj. He was diligent and attentive to his duties, and being a young man of fine presence and engaging manners he was soon a favorite in social circles. He formed the acquaintance of Miss Mary Louise WVzencratt, a most estimable young lady of rrear personal beauty, the daughter of the tiel"l Dr. "Wozencraft. The acquaint ance rijwT.e.1 into friendship and friendship clecpene-3 into love. They were betrothed and the wedding day set for January 1. As the time drew near the friends of the bride made elaborate preparations for the wedding; cards were issued to numbers of friends lor the Wozen craft family number their friends by the hundreds "in the San Bernardino Valley. The wedding breakfast was to be a notable pvent, a triumph of hospitality and good cheer in old-fashioned San Bernardino style, and the fatted calf was killed. The invita tions were printed on delicate cream-tinted paper, witli the monogram of the bride and groom deftly worked in artistic characters. On the cover was inscribed the .following: "WcdiHn? breakfast, Frank E. Hill Mary L. Wozencraft, San Bernardino, Cal., 10. A. JL, Januarv 1. 1892." Inside the cover was the breakfast menu, printed on cream colored satin, but ot the day previous to the wedding there wjs a :toriiy interview between the couple, which, ended in Hill's leaving San Bernardino. Betrayed by His Wedding Card. "Yes,sir,"saidMrs. Hill to the detective, "lam the wife f Frank E, Hill, I am sorry to say. I did not know that he contemplated bigamy until Tew Year's Dav. On that day my husband came don n to San Diego, where I was stopping, and after spending a text hours with me he took the" train for San Bernardino. After his departure I looked in the pockets of a coat which he left behind and was horrified at finding his wed ding cards engraved on elegantly embossed paper. I also found a singular letter from Frank, which read as follows: Mr DgAtt Wife If any one comes to you to find out whether we are married or not, say no, for if you do say that wo are married, or admit It in any way, It will place me be hind tho bars. Feakk. "When I found this letter and the wed ding cards I took the first train for San Ber nardino, arriving there on Sunday, and went at once to see Dr. Bedford. I told him I was Frank E. Hill's wife and he was astonished. He at once sent for Deputy Sheriff Brown, to whom I told my story, and he went and tcid it to Miss Mary Wozen craft, the young lady whom my hnsbaud wanted to marry. The young lady asked to see me, and I went to her home and spent Sunday afternoon with her, and while of course'ehe was deeply afiectcd as she showed me her wedding dress, she finally com lorted herself with the thought that she es caped a terrible fate. She is a beautiful girl, and I am truly sorry for her. She felt worse about it than I did, for Frank had .turned my love to hate by his demeanor to ward me." Married Tor but One Short Tear. "When was you married to Hill?" was asked. "I was married one year ago this month. Here is a copy of my wedding cer tificate. The certificate read as follows: Frank E. Hill and Ada E. Wilton .Were united in holy matrimony, according to the ordinances of God and tho law s of the State of Washington, at Fairhaven. ttie25th day of January, 189L W. A. Macket, Minister of the Gospel. "Rev. Mr. Mackey Is the Presbyterian minister at Fairhaven, and I have only got acopyof.the wedding certificate lor the reason that two months after our marriage my husband quarreled with me, and snatch ing up our marriage certificate, tore it into fragments." "How long did yoa know Hill before marrying him?" "I knew him six months prior to the marriage. I left my home in Albany. IT. Y., about 18 months ago and joined my brother in Seattle. I came on to keep house for him. We went to Fair haven and there I met Frank E. Hill, who was working in Stewart's drug store. I told my brother that Frank was paying attention to me, and when I told him we were engaged to be married he bitterly opposed the match. Before we were married I wrote to Frank's sister and asked if he was married, and she wrote me that he was not, and that she was glad to know he was going to settle down. We re mained in Fairhaven for six months, Frank J getting a salary of $80 per month as a drne clerk, white I was earning money sewing. "We put our money together and accumu lated about 51, 000. Frank then became dis satisfied with Fairhaven and went down to San Diego. He did not get work there, so I got a place as seamstress and earned enough to support us. Through the friend ship of a wholesale druggist Frank finally got a position with Dr. Bedford at Sail Bernardino. He Threatened to Commit Suicide. "He has been down to seejne at San Diego and has always told me that he was dissatisfied with 'the place, and that we would soon go to Illinois or some other Eastern State, where he could invest the $1,000 we had saved in the drugstore. Since I have found what he has been doing at San Bernardino I have decided to get a divorce from him as soon as possible. I understand that Frank savs that he burned up SC00 of our money at the Westminster Hotel before he w as arrested and said he was going to commit suicide. I have lost all affection for him, bemuse for a long time he has not treated me right." A reporter went to the police station to see Hill a short time before his departure for San Bernardino. He found the prisoner sitting at a table with his head buried in his hands, crying. "I have very little to say," he said with a sob. "I have done wrong and I know it, hut as God is my judge, there is no other woman tnan the woman here who nas a right to call me husband. I will do nothing for her, because she has not treated me right. 1 have nothing to say re garding my conduct toward " Miss Wozencraft. Sonic weeks ago, one even ing when she came to see me in Dr. Bed ford's drugstore, I suddenly told her I was married. She stared at me blankly for a minute and fell down in a dead faint. I took her in the private office and restored her to consciousness. She became wildly, hysterical, and in order to restore her men tal equilibrium,: told her that I had merely been jesting snd was not married. Would to God that I had not weakened then, but had stuck to the truth. It would have saved me all this bitter sorrow." A telegram from San Jose, Cal., states that Hill was married a couple of years ago to a Miss Wyatt, of San Jose, CaLand it is on the basis of this marriage that the prose cution for bigamy is taken. SO I0NGEB IN POLITICS. George Pearson Saya Offlrcholdlng Doesn't Fay, and He Has Quit for Good. George Pearson, of Mercer, and Colonel Willis J. Hulings, of Oil City, sat in the lobby of the Monongahela House yesterday afternoon talking over old times. Since Mr. Pearson went out of office as private secretary to Governor Beaver he has let politics alone, and says he has made up his mind never to enter the political arena again. Politics, he added, docs not pay,and if a man devotes his energy to some legiti mate business he will be better off Mr. Pearson thinks if Blaine is not nominated Harrison will be the Republican candidate. He will take no interest in the Presidentai fight except to vote for thejiominee. "I remember," said Mr. Pearson, "I was here in this hotel about four years ago. Harrison came in from Indianapolis to at tend the Americus Club banquet. He wore an old hat on the back of his head and a hand-me-down overcoat. He slouched up to the counter, as only Governor Davies and he can slouch, to register his name. There wasn't a man to receive him, but things have changed. That reminds me of a story told about ex-President Hayes. Shortly after he retired from office he went to Phil adelphia to attend a celebration of some kind. Only one man spoke to him, and he was the guardian of the park. He told him to keep off the grass." THE ABKANSAB WAY. A Desperado Who Resisted Arrest Shot Dead by an Officer.

YIOTORFA WOODHULL Is About to Explain Her Pet Theories to the French Citizens. LIKE TO A FWHETESS OF OLD. She Argues on Objectionable Topics With Marvelous Fluency. THE -HISTORY OF HER GREAT SYSTEM f COBBKSPOSDIHCE Or THE DISPATCH. ( Birmingham, England, Jan. 10. Promises of moral enlightenment for the new year come in showers frcmall quarters. One of the most encouraging is that made us by Mrs. Victoria "Woodhull, who will re turn tor the lecturing platform with Teno rated intellectual power, and her friends declare with renovated beauty, as well as to instruct the human race in the science of keeping up knowledge and keeping down numbers. The task is difficult; but to a brave woman like "Victoria Woodhull all things are possible, made so by the high in tellieence which nnables her to leap at a bound over the fences set up by men's prej udices, or to creep gracefully through the tangled underwood that nature herself has provided. But a few short years have elapsed since Victorfa's last visit to St. James' Hall, and yet, by the younger folks among ns, she is almost forgotten; and therefore it may be well to renew the memory of the strange power of fascination which enabled her to talk without a blush, and to be listened to without protestation. Honesty of purpose was accepted as excuse for Indiscretion of tongue. Philosophers d eclare that there is but one such woman in a generation. But in this case we have had two Victoria and her sister and, although the latter only followed in the wake of the former, it was felt that her preserice added a great addi tional charm to the i'conferenccs for men onty," when any subject was discussed which needed the softening influence of woman to give it the sanction of purityf motive, at all events, it not of terms in its plain exposition. Like a Prophetess of Old. I remember seeing Viotoria Woodhull at her residence in Langham place, and the impression conveyed by her language and appearance was that of a prophetess of old. Her tall commanding figure and classical features, her magnificent bearing and regal gesture seemed well adapted to the author itative tone of her discourse. The elo quence was surprising. Not once did she hesitite for the appropriate word; not once did she repeat the same expression in the same paragraph; and sne held you spell bound by the lucidity and logic of her reasoning, until you forgot the objectiona ble nature of her arguments, and only re membered to protest against them when you had returned to quiet reflection and self-inquiry as to the exact justice of her suggestion'to enforce the doctrine Of Mal thus upon all men alike. She was attired, moreover, in the most exquisite taste, well befitting the gravity of the subject Upon which she had come to lecture a simple robe of plain black velvet, trimmed at the throat with a ruff of antique lace; a plain gold brooch, and gold buckle at the waist completed her whole attire. Her hair was dressed in plain fashion like wise. A soft coil round the back of her head, falling low in the neck, a light feathery fringe oyer the brow. 2fo affectation of opening and shutting of the face, no arti ficial application of the scent bottle, no sipping of water from the decanter on the table. She Carried in her right hand a plain cambric pocket-handkerchief, which she tucked gracefully into her belt when both hands were needed to enfoiCe the power of her words. History of Her System. Time flies so fast and events follow each oiher so quiokly that the memory even of Victoria Woodnull's admirers may need re freshing at this day. It was in 1875 that Victoria Woodhull first started on her career of mystical reformer of the human race. She had already made the emancipa tion of woman her most especial study, and even as a voting girl became convinced that the excess of population and the bondage in which the female sex was held thereby was the fundamental cause of ail the poverty and depression Of the lower classes. She then became convinced that bv com merce and speculation, in rivalry with the brokers of Wall street, she should be able to compete with the wealthiest citizens Of New York. "It needs so little brains to guide and govern the stock market, that I always fear to show superiority of intellect, as it would be considered so unbecoming in Wall street that it would frighten the busi ness men" said she to Vanderbilt,.who had expressed a doubt whether she would be able to stand against the fierce competition which would assail her. Public rumor de clared that her success was too evident, and the behavior of her male rivals so mean and contemptible in the way of business that she threw up the stockbroking in disgust, and not through loss, as the Stock Exchange asserted afterward. Canvassed for the Presidency. She was bold enough to rely upon her in telligence in a far more ambitious matter still, for she positively canvassed for the dignity of President of the United States. and actually secured the support of 2G States and 4 Territories, from which delegates were dispatched to assure her of their allegiance. Indeed, the theories she had developed in the course of her lectures all over theUnion had created a powerful party in her favor. During her stay in Loudon shs met with a rich banker, to whom she was married. This event put an end for the time to her lecturing in our metropolis. But qui a bu boira, says the French proverb, and Victoria Woodnull, fired with indignation at the false doctrines which have taken hold Of the public mind, and wanton waste of money expended on theories which the propagators know well enough can never be realized, resolves again to come forward to save the human raco from the nerveless apathy into which it is fast falling, suffering who'le armies of Impostors to march Over the senseless bodies of the credulous multitude, and rob them as they lie helpless and hoping and believing still. Her Visit to Paris. Victoria Woodhnlt (now" Mrs. Martin) is about to begin her lectures'before the pub lic of Paris, in whom it will cause no small degree of amazement to be told that all the misery of Ireland arises from the want of courage of the women. What have the .women done to help the men all this while? says she. "Nothing. They are content to live in dependenoe upon the men, expecting to be provided wthibod, shelter and rai ment without the Smallest exertion on their own part It is by the women that the' nations rise and fall. And Ireland is stick ing fast to the soft marl-pit of helplessness and discouragement through want of an j noble aim to guide the women." The Paris people who have been led to believe that all the soi-disant misery of Ireland arises from the crushing power of England will be. rather astonished at this new view of the oppressed people of the green island. The theories about to be developediy Victoria Woodhull, once aided by her sister, now Lady Cook, wife of Sir Francis Cook, the great merchant of St. Paul's Churchyard, may not exactly accord with our own ideas, but they are worth examining, nevertheless. She nroclaims the lower classes to be the foundation of the edihee on which society reposes; ancl yet in every country It is the people of the lower classes who are oppressed and driven to despair by the different Governments. And what Is terrible is the .conviction that they are increasing in numbers so rapidly that society, which hugs itself in such fond security, will be overwhelmed ere long. Crimes In the Name of Marriage. "Let us. then, examine whence arise th crime and misery which exist among them; J and now, then, let me grapple face to face with the greatest and most flagrant crimes of all, the most general, the most ferocious, becanse hidden, the unost bitter which can befall -the human race the crimes com mitted in the name of marriage." Victoria Woodhull seeks not to satirize or condemn hthe institution itself, but to suggest certain retorms'wnicn must be adopted, or society cannot hold together for another . genera tion. She then sfarts forward on her course folle upon the theory -preached by Tolstoi that none should be allowed to marry but those who are perfectly proportioned in mind and body, and th'at physical health and beauty should be considered as neces sary to the married state as well as moral health and vigor. She calls her doctrine "The Development of the Human Race," and Mrs. Grundy leaves the hall disgusted and ashamed at the enthusiasm to which her discourse gives rise, i The theory plainly developed in words that all may understand is considered immodest, and the accusation cannot be de nied. Victoria has been eight times in prison in America for exposing her doctrine without disguise, but she intends to pro ceed even further on her return to London, She declares the evil of which she speaks has increased tenfold since her last lectures, and that her denunciations against the "crimes consequent on marriage" will be the theme rendered more powerful in con sequence. CAPITALISTS TAKEN IN. FALL KIVEB CITIZEN? MOTJRN THE LOSS OF 8300,000. They Did Not Catch on to the Right End or the Florence Industrial Doom Their Money Went Into Corner Lots Instead of Iron Work. Fall Kites, Mass., Jan. 20. There are a number of the leading citizens here in anything but a pleasant frame of mind. They are the cute business men of the town, rich in experience, many of them having sounded all the depths' and shoals of financial navigation, and with as keen a Yankee edge upon their business instincts as can be found anywhere. Yet they are ready to throw up thjeir hands, and confess that they have been taken in and sheared of all their shrewdness and experience by the hated race of rebel brigadiers. It came about in this manner: Two years ago an agent of the industrial boom in Flor ence, Ala., came to this city with his boom and his story of the marvelous natural re sources and ultimate future of Florence. He was a judge and a gentleman, and armed with credentials irom Philadelphia capital ists and a persuasive tongue, he ' succeeded in getting capitalists here to invest in the Florence iron works, then built on paper, to the tune of nearly 5200,000. Some of the investors were disinclined to invest in futures of any kind, in view of past experi ence, but the judge assured them that this was a sure winner, and that the Florence boom would grow while you waited, 'if it wasn t deemed advisable to hold it bacK. So the judge and the money of the investors departed for Florence. Expectations didn't realize; the boom progressed so far as to enable those who were steering it to gather in a large raft of tender- feet and build theiron wrorks. Then it flattened out. The investors here and else where clamored for information and ex planations. They got very little of either, and that was of an unsatisfactory quality. The reason given for not operating the works was that there wasn't a dollar left in the treasury and that the game could not proceed further uuless stockholders had a mind to ante more ' cash. This nobody seemed inclined to do, and so things re mained at a standstill and nobody spoke above his breath for fear he wonld give him self away to the public as a "sucker." The annual meeting of the corporation was held lost week, and the men in this city who had flashed up 5200,000 under the seductive influence of the judge's eloquence, appointed Colonel W. B. Warner, of the firm of Cobb, Bates & Yerxa, and W. H. Chase, of the Union Belt Company, to go on and represent them and get an account ing. They went and have just returned. From the officers of the Florence iron works they say that they could get little satisfaction, but in the course of their investigation-they discovered that neither they nor their mends here were in the con cern at all. What they had pooled 'in had been used to boom land instead of manu facturing stock, and at present quotations land could be bought by the acre for the price obtained for a square foot at the time they invested. At the stockholders' meet ing no attention was paid to their protests, and immediately after it adjourned the directors went into executive session and denied themselves to the envoys from Fall Eiver. They have returned and reported, and that is why lots of men have ah anxious, careworn look in this city to-day. DIED FH0M A BETJIE'S KICK.

Trainmen Were Exercising Froper Precautions. All CORRECT UST OP DEAD AND INJURED St. Xotjis, Jan. 20. Details of the ter rible accident to a sleighing party in this city lost night confirm the first report printed in The Dispatch this morning that eight were killed. In addition four are thought to be fatally injured, while four others were hiore or less hurt. The driver of the sleigh had charge of a party of 20 persons, members of the Clover Fishing Club and their guests, who were re turning from a cafe some distance out the Clayton road. .Nearly all the party had been drinking during the evening, but the driver was sober. He was so muffled up, however, that he did not hear the approach ing train and could not see it from the fact that a short distance from the Sarah street crossing there is a deep cut hiding the track. Just as the party were crossing the tracks the train dashed into the sleigh. The engine was running tender first. The men were thrown high in the air and scattered in all directions. A Frightful Spectacle at the Wreck. When the train backed up the sight that met the gaze of those on the train was awful. The men who comprised tht sleigh ing party were lying in a heap, and groans and screams rent the air. Four men were lifted from tho mass and placed in the coach. Then the police and ambulances that had been telephoned for arrived, and the train proceeded on its way to the Union depot. The ambulance attendants lifted the dead and injured out of the .snow and the latter were made as comfortable as possible. The night was very cold, the. mercury being be low zero, and the injured, as well as helpers suffered greatly on this account. After the wounded had all been placed in the ambu lances they were conveyed to the City Hos pital, while the dead were removed to the morgue. Engineer Blanchfield says that he is not responsible for the accident, as the bells were ringing and he believes the men in the sleigh were so intoxicated they did not know they were driving along the railroad track. The Dead and the Wounded. The list of killed is as follows: FBEDEK1CK NEUBEET, harkceper. J. C. SCHIEFFLE, formerly of Chicago. GUSTAVE NEUBEKT, bartender. WILLIAM KRONE, salesman In the employ of the Coylo & Sargeant Silk Company. GEOllGE EDD, clerk for tho Miller Drug Company. B. VON EHREN, salesman in the employ or tho Coyle & Sargeant Silk Company. AL MILLER, bartender. GEORGE DAT. The following is a correct list of the in jured: Charles Frey, Jr., E. H. Beckley, Charles Behrens, D. Gardner, E. Hauck, John Spencer, James Barrett, Charles Willard and James Connor. An investigation by the Wabash officials reveals the fact that while the engine was running tender first there was a headlight on the tender and the bell was ringing, so that the blame is entirely on the driver of the sleigh.

How it brings up the pleasures of the past, and hides its unpleasantnesses! You recall your childhood days, do you not, and wish they would jeturn1? You remember the 'pleasant associa tions, while the unpleasant ones ar$ forgotten. Perhaps to your mind comes the face of some friend. It was once a pale, sad face. It showed marks of pain, lines of care- It seemed to be looking into the here after, the unknown future. And then ,, , - . . . 4. j , you recalled how It brightened, how it recovered its rosy hue, how it be came a picture of happiness and joy. Do you remember these things? Many people do, and gladly tell how the health returned, how happiness came back, how the world seemed bright. They tell how they were once weak, nerveless, perhaps in pain, cer tainly unhappy. They tell of sleep less nights, restless days, untouched food, unstrung nerves. And then they tell how they became happy, healthy and strong onc more. You have heard it often in the past, have you not? You have heart! people describe how they were cured and kept in health? You certainly can remember what it is that has so helped people in America. If not, listen to twhat Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller; who is known universally as the great dress reformer, says: "Six years ago, when suffering from mental care and overwork, I received the most pronounced benefit from, the use of that great medicine, Warner's Safe Cure." Ah, ''now you remember. Now you recall how many people you have heard say this same thing. Now you recollect how much you have heard of this great Cure. Now you are ready to admit that memory is usually t pleasing, that the highest pleasure comes from perfect health, and that this great remedy has done more to produce and prolong health than any other discovery ever known in the entire history of the whole world. ja!9-56 CANDID TALK -TO Gt i There aro always people who need cloth ing.
