The parties to the suit were Cor nelius Calilll, a good-looking young man about twenty-seven yours old.and a woman whose maiden name was Ann Bnvlngton, but who claims to be the wife of Cahill. Ann, who is not exactly prepossessing In appearance, looks to be between thirty-five -and forty years old, but says she Is only twenty-four.

Ann swore positively to these facts, nud said that as soon as the ceremony was over the pair parted and did not meet until a week after. She had bad . ft marriage certificate, but had lost It. lte--ceutly she begau proceedings against Cahill -for failure to support her. Cahill flatly contradicted the story, lie said be is a "Single man, and never married Ann Bev ington or any other woman.

Father Brady, present pastor of Bt. Mary's Church, Moutgomery, testified that be bad diligently searched the record, and could find no such marriage recorded. Had there been such a marriage it would cer tainly appear. Catharine Costollo, the al leged bridesmaid, testified that slio had not acted as bridesmaid, and bad never been asked to. Cahill was discharged, the evi dence not showing the woman's assertions .to bo true. Daring Outrage by a Tramp. "New Toiik, May 10.

Mrs. Barry presented a pitiable appearanco, her face having been beaten almost to a jelly in her scuffle with the villains, who are both tramps. They were sent to jail and will have a further bearing on Thursday. Strange Place to Fight. The engineer and the fireman of a loco motive on the Missouri, Kansas, and Texas x ailroad bad a desperate fight on tho trip from Emporia to Parsons. In the strug gle the throttle valve was pulled wide open, -and the speed of the train became fright ful. Tho conductor found them belabor ing eaoh other with hammers and wrenches. The train was stopped just in time to avoid collision with another freight train. Summer Dresses. An exchange very truthfully says : "If only young girls oould be persuaded to be lieve what is an incontrovertible fact, that during the summer weather nothing is so becoming or comfortable as a crisp clean lawo, what a blessing it would be to them selves. Linen lawns are specially beautiful And the girl who has them made up in neat tyle, is the girl who will win admiration wherever she goes, no matter how much silk, satin and lace there may be around.
