O. W. SMITH BREATHES EASIER.
At Last Accounts a Truce Had Been
Declared Between Him and His
Housekeeper.
The troubles of George Washington
Smith and his foimei housekeeper,
"Mis Blackmoie, which have attracted
lonsideiable attention ot late, are just
now in a state of status cuo.
The first link of the endless chain
of woo for Smith was fciged when
he took peilously some playful sug
gestions of Mrs. BlacUmore that she
-would burn his house and do other
things of the same mischievous na
tuie. So Oeoige hied himself to Al
derman MntiNon and arlted for a wai
l.int foi his amiable housekeeper. t
tills time It looked more than black
lot M niackmoie and she shed
leais, not of lepentancc, howeei. She
parsed Si'llday eiv quietlv, being at
home to her ti lends only in the Cltv
hold, under the chaperonage of an
ntf.nd.mt in blue, with the expecta
tion of hj!ng another try at jus
tice on Monday afternoon. She had
plenty of time to leflect while enjoy
ing the hospitality of the cltv and

1 octed a plan to checkmate her op
ponent She Moie out n wairant for

hN son and heii on a charge of
adulteiy. Whcjn the plslntiff ap
pealed to pic-s his chaige against
Mis. Wntknicie. he was told that her
diaige must take piecedence. Smith
tiled to beg the question, but the lady
in the tasie said nay. After a long
discussion both chaiges were wlth
diawn, the two paited, and the chap
ter is closed, for the ptesertt at least.
