" Oao morning , In the spring , the day
clerk of a largo hotel In Atlanta entered
the oilloo and plancod over the register
to note the arrivals of the nlglit before ,
writes "Wallace P. Rood in the Atlanta
Constitution.
"Rather queer , " ho said to himself.
"Horo is Mrs. John Ellington registered
from Now Orleans , and here on the next
page IB Mrs. John Ellington from Bos
ton. "
Ho turned away to answer a question
from the bookkeeper and forgot all
nhout the matter.
At 10 o'clock that same morning a
pretty little brunette opened the door of
room No. 225'nnd looked out. Her som-
bro black dross and sad fnco told the
"story of a recent sorrow. The lady was
Mrs. John Ellington of Now Orleans.
"While she was standing there the
door of room No. 227 , just opposite ,
opened , and n tall , handsome blond in
the mourning costume of a widow came
_ out She hold a bunch of ilowors in her
hand , und after pausing to lock her
door , she walked quietly to the elevator
and disappeared from view. The blonde
widow was Mrs. John Ellington of Bos
ton.
ton.Two
Two hours Inter the Now Orleans lady
stood by a nowly-inado grave In the
cemoto ry.
"Fresh flowers on his gravel" she ex
claimed , with tears In her oyos. "I did
not expect it. Poor John was a Stranger
here , but his kind heart must have won
him friends. These flowers show that
somebody In this great city loves him
and rouiombors him. "
The visitor added another floral
tribute to the ono on the pravo. She remained -
" mained some little time. Finally with a
sllont piayor , she loft the place , and ,
entering a carriage , rode back to the
hotel.
"I wonder who loft the flowers there , "
she raid , after she had reached her
room. "Whon John waa killed In that
awful railroad disaster , und was buried
BO fur away from homo , I was afraid that
his gruvo would bo neglected until I
could cnro for It myself. But somebody
here loves him. Perhaps ono of his fol
low travelers. "
She removed her bonnet and throw
\ herself Into a chair completely exhaust
ed. *
"If John had carried any letters with
hlm8ho murmured , "tho news would
have boon telegraphed to mo , but ho wus
only accidentally identified , and I know
nothing of the horror until I road it in
the newspapers. O I cannot boar up un
der my grief It will kill mo yet. "
She throw herself on a lounge face
downward and sobbed as though her
heart would break.
The next morning the lady from Now
Orleans wns again Jn the comotory. As
she turned a corner and came suddenly
upon the lonely grave of her husband
she saw a black robed llguro lay some
flowers on the mound. In a moment the
two fuced each other. The flrst comer
was the tall blonde of room No. 227.
"Imustthnnk you for your thought
ful kindness , " said the Louisianiun im
pulsively. "And , O , I am so anxious to
learn your name , "
The other looked startled and almost
dazed. She glanced at the flowers in
the little woman's hand.
"J am Mrs. Ellington , " she answered
mechanically.
"How strange. Why , I am Mrs. El
lington. "
"I am Mrs. John Ellington"oxplalncd
the Boston strungor.
"And lam Mrs. John Ellington , " was
; ho response.
A dead silence foil upon the two. Both
turned pnlo , and they could almost hear
each other's heart boats.
"What was John Ellington to you ? "
asked the blonde sternly.
"Ho wns my husband ! "
There was no response for a full min
ute , and then came the whisper
"And howasmlnol"
"Tho two pnzed into each other's eyes.
Ono produced a locket.
"Look at his face , " she said.
"I know , " was the sad reply. "Your
locket is just like mine. Scot"
The two portraits wcro undoubtedly
those of the same man a handsome face
ono that any woman would falLln love
with at sight.
* * * * *
The whole story was told when the
two Mrs. Ellington's returned to the
hotel. John Ellington's business kept
him In the north half of every year and
in the south the remainder of the time.
Ho was a boyish , emotional young fol
low , good-hearted , but thoughtless. Twc
yonrs before his death ho had married
in Boston during- the summer , and the
following winter had married ngain ir
Now Orleans. Ho was so reckless nn < 3
so sure that his secret was safe that ho
hadj not oven changed his name. The
two women had their marriage certifi
cates , but they would have believed each
other without such proof. They in
stinctlvoly felt that the truth had como
out nt last.
"Poor John , " said Mrs. Ellington of
Now Orleans , "I cannot blnmo him for
loving you. "
"And I know that ho could not help
his affection for you , " was the answer.
"Ho was very very coed to mo. "
The blonde took the other's little
hand in hors.
"IIo loved us , and wo both loved him. "
she said softly. "That is enough to
kr.ow. "Wo cannot judge wo can only
forglvo. "
And then those two sisters of sorrow
embraced and spoke lovingly of the
dead man. and in their simple , sweet
way tried to comfort each other.
A colored woman , bent nearly double
with eighty years and a heavy bundle ,
wns seen to board the Cincinnati Mall
line packet at Louisville , Ky. , the other
afternoon , says the Post of that city.
Approaching the clerk of the boat she
slowly untied a knot in the corner of her
rod bandana handkerchief and produced
onoucrh cash to purchase a dock ticket
for Cincinnati.
The wrinkled and feeble old nogross Is
the horolno of a romance. In uuto-bol-

whole family wns then put on the block
and sold to a Virginia man. When the
emancipation proclamation was promul
gated the family took advantage of tholr
'rccdom and journeyed northward ,
finally taking up their homo in Louis
ville. The husband died after the cioso
of the war , and the children one by ono
loft their mother to book their fortunes
elbowhoro. The mother toiled and la
bored to make a livelihood. She hoard
nothing of her first husband until about
a month ago , when ono of her sons found
that the old man was living in Newport ,
Ky. The old nogress journeyed thither ,
and found the husband of her youth : He
had also boon married the second time ,
and had several children by the second
wife. The latter was dead , however ,
and the reunited couple decided to again
live together. The woman returned to
Louisville , disposed of her effects , and
yesterday afternoon completed the ro
mance of fifty years by returning to her
husband.
A hearing was had Deforo Justice J.
It. Dovanoy of Ellenvillo , N. J. , re
cently , in a case in which Isaac N. Cox ,
the principal merchant of the town , and
the congressman-elect for the Ulster dis
trict play a conspicuous part. Mr. Cox ,
who is past middle ago , married a young
Sullivan county belle about two years
ngo , brought her to Ellonvillo and es
tablished her in a handsome mansion ,
says a dispatch from Middloton , N. J. ,
to the St. Louis Globo-Domocrat. The
bride and groom began housekeeping by
a grand reception of their friends from
far and near. After dark , and while the
festivities were in progress , some mali
cious person smeared the gateway and
the walks approaching the mansion , and
the porch also , with a compound of fish
oil and lamp-black , to the ruin of the
dresses of the lady guests and of the
costly carpets and other furniture in the
house. On several occasions since then
acts of malicious mischief of a similar
character have boon perpetrated on the
promises , but , strange to say , no earnest
effort lias been made until very ro-
conily toward detecting and punishing
the olTondcr.
It was recalled by gossip that for toner
or twelve years bolero his marriage Mr.
Cox had paid marked attentions to Mrs.
Sarah Molviile , an attractive widow of
the village , and it was long thought they
were engaged to bo married. People
talked of tho" annoyances of which Mr.
Cox was the vicl im as the revenge of a
lilted woman , and there was little fool
ing of surprise when on the night ol
October 11 last it was announced that
the Widow Melville had boon caught Jn
the very act of smearing the approaches
to the Cox mansion.
The hearing had before Justice De-
vanoy on Friday was on complaint for al
leged assault and bottory made by the
Widow Melville against James J. Thorp.
The comphflnant testified that on the
night named , while she was passing
along the street in front of the Cox man
sion , the defendant seized her violently
and dragged her into the dooryard ,
pinching her arms black and blue ant
shocking her nervous system. She de
nied that on that or any other occasion
had she committed any malicious mis
chief of the character indicated on the
promises.
The defendant testified that on the
night in question ho was employed by
Mr. Cox to watch the house , and that ho
caught Mrs. Melville in the act of sinoar
ing a compound on the walk londlntr
from the gateway to the porch , Ho pro
duced an old tomato can in court which
ho alleged the widow used in the opera
tlon. Mrs. > Cox corroborated him uj
testifying that she saw and idontlllcc
Mrs. Melville as the person captured b1
Thorp.
Justice Dovanoy decided promptly
against the widow by dismissing her
complaint and discharging Thorp.
There was a romantic elopement from
near Campbell Hall Station , on the Orange -
ango County railroad , the other night.
Mr. John Lord is a woll-to-do farmer
there , having throe children , two boys
and a girl. Jennie Lord is a bright ,
voll-educutod and pretty blonde of nino-
eon years. For a year or BO previous
o the elopement she had two devoted
uitors. Ono was Asa McElroy , a young
vldowor of the neighborhood , of excel-
out character and having sorao means.
L'ho other was her cousin , Samuel Ew-
ng , a jolly , good-looking , rather wild
foung follow who was employed in the
uawronco creamery near by. The girl's
naronts favored the sedate and well-to-
lo suitor , and she apparently acquiesced
in tholr choice. The wedding day was
sot and invitations to witness the cere
mony were sent to all their friends. Mr.
and Mrs. Lord provided their daughter
with a hundsofno wedding outfit. On
the Sunday preceding the expected
event young Ewlng called on Mibs Lord
and was permitted to have what was
supposed to bo a parting private inter
view with hor. Qu Monday afternoon
the wedding gown was brought homo to
the expectant brido.
Miss Lord put on her bridal robes and
showed herself thus arrayed to a number
of lady callers. She was in high spirits
and chatted gnyly about her nuptials as
arranged for the morrow. Along1 In the
evening the expectant bridegroom called
upon hor. She had ro.tii'od to her
room an hour or so bofor'o. Mrs. Lord
went to her room to call her and found
no ono thoro. Jennie had fled hastily in
her bridal garments , carrying oil the
best p''rt of her wedding trousseau with
her. On a table in the room she loft a
gold watch and chain and other valua
bles which had boon given her by the
lever whom she BO summarily jilted.
When she fled from the house young
Ewing was waiting near by with a fast
team. The pair were driven rapidly to
this place , where they wore married ,
and then boarded a fast Erie train west
ward bound. It is conjectured that they
have gone to California , where they have
near relatives living.
An attempt at muidor and suicide was
the sequel to a love story in Woburn ,
Mass. , the other o.yonlng.
Hannah Dillon , a handsome young
woman , who was thrown aside by James
M. Callnhan , a switchman on the Boston
and Maine road , vtaitod his station with
the intention of Hilling her lever and
then herself. , , ,
She throw herself in front of an the
approaching oxnro'ss train knowing thai
ho would rush to Ifdr rescue. After she
had boon carried ! to a place of safety ,
and while her iQVor's arms were stm
around her , shodfow a revolver and
pressing it to his breast fired two shots ,
but neither shot took effect. Callahan
saw the flash of ttnnv'eapon in the light
of the headlight * qt un onglno which
dashed past , and Jin , some unaccountable
way ho suddenly turned and the bullets
penetrated only his clothing.
Again the infuriated woman fired , and
again her victim escaped death. Then
followed a desperate struggle for posses
sion of the weapon , and the man's su
perior strength saved his life. The
woman was overpowered and locked up.
She was intoxicated , and her act was
then believed to be only a drunken fronk ,
but today she told the story of her delib
erate plotting to kill.
Ten years ago Hannah Dillon and
James Callahan were schoolmates , and
after they had been graduated from
Cumnrings1 school their friendship rip
ened into raora intimate relationship.
But when ho refused to marry her alto

Miss Jonnlo Barrows of Koyport , N.
J. , was to wed Mr. Morris Weinstein ,
but young Benjamin Robinson in the
meantime won her love ; and they both
mysteriously disappeared on the wed
ding nijrht and loft the would-be groom
awaiting at the altar for the brido. But
Mr. Weinstein and Miss Barrows were
made man and wife , although her for
mer lever stood by and saw thorn joined
together. Miss Barrows is a stout and
hundbomo-looking young lady. She
wont to Koyport from Now York about
six months ago. She became acquainted
with Morris Woinstoln , who superin
tends a gang of men employed at Loril-
lard's brick works. His visits were
quite frequent , and they decided to wed
on Sunday evening , Novcmbes 9. Two"
weeks before the wedding day Benjamin
Robinson , who is in the employ of Har
ris1 clothing establishment , paid marked
attention to Miss Jennie , and told her
that ho would make her rich If she
wouldiecomo his wife and discard "VVotn-
stoin. Nightly ho pleaded with her ,
and his visits became so frequent that
Goldstein ordered him from the house ,
where she was boarding. Robinson
mot his sweetheart In the street , and she
promised to ho true to him. All this
was unknown to Welnstoiu , and when
Sunday evening came all arrangements
were made and Rov. Mr. WoliT of Now
York city , was in readiness to perform
the ceremony. The groom appeared ,
and was surprised in not mooting with
his brido. They waited till 9 o'clock ,
with the sarao result. The next day It
was learned that the young lady and
Robinson wore missing. Weinstein
almost wont into hysterics. Isonburg ,
biothor-iu-law to the missing lady ,
sought her and brought her homo.
Weinstein was present , and , after some
explanation , the couple were again
happy. Last night they were made and
wife in the presence of about fifty pee
ple. Robinson wns present , and when
seen by Woihstoin was ordered from the
house , but refused to go. After a little
discussion they quieted down and Rob
inson made his oxit. "While the bride
stood at the altar and the clergyman
read the marriage vow she began cry
ing most pitcously and was hardly able
to answer the questions necessary.
A shooting affray in "which a western
Lochinvar and his stolen bride ramo
out best is reported from the southern
part of the public land strip , says a
Buffalo , O. T. . dispatch to the Globe-
Democrat. Mary Carson has boon the
hello of the section and all the young
won hnvo aspired to her hand , but the
parents were cold to all comers until a
wealthy cattleman named Royson made
known his intentions of paying court to
the young lady. His suit was favored
by the girl's father and mother , but the
Euitorto whom the girl showed prefer
ence was a young and handsome herder ,
who had nothing but his monthly wages
on which to live. The persistent wooing
of the cattleman and the coercion of the
parents caused the lovers much unhnp-
plnobs. After holding out against the
demands of her patonts.until life was
made a burden to her , Mary at last consented - >
sontod to marry Royson. All the prep
arations for a big wedding were com
pleted , and when the day came the people
ple gathorad for miles around. Just
before the hour sot for the ceremony
John Holland , the poor lovpr , appeared
riding a largo horse and loading another.
The prospective husband and the p.ir-
cnts of the girl mot him with frowns ,
but ho was allowed to como into the
house and participate in the festivities.
All wont well for a tlrao , but it was soon
noticed that the girl and Holland hud
disappeared , and a search rnvoalcd the
faut that both the horses were also gono.
A hot chase was begun , and a largo
party soon got on the trail of the Hoeing
couplo. The girl had drcs&cd herself in
a suit of men's clothes and was riding
astride beside her lover , both being
heavily armed. A running fieht ensued
on the plains , in which old man Carson
and ono of hig herders were shot slightly
and Royson had his horse killed under
him. Tills proceeding drove back the
pursuers , and the couple roilo into Buf
falo where they were made husband and

A peculiar decision was handed down
by the district judge the other day , says
aDoorLodgo , Mont. , correspondent of
the Anaconda Standard. By this it is
not meant that the decision was not
sound law , but only peculiar in that the
facts upon which it was based were
strange and peculiar. It appears that
ono Francis S Smith brought suit in the
district court of this couutyabout 18SO
and obtained a judgment of divorce
against his- wife , Julia 0. Smith , who
then lived in Wisconsin. Now Julia 0.
Smith has applied to the court to have
the decree of divorce sot aside and to bo
restored to her marital rights on the
grounds that the court had no jurisdic
tion of her person , that the decree was
based upon perjured testimony and
fraud , and for other defects appearing
upon the face of the proceedings. It up-
Dears from the petition of Julia O. Smith
that slio and Francis wcro married iu
1877 at llncine , "VVls. , where she has
over since resided ; that she and her
husband continued to reside there until
twelve children were horn to thorn , ho
in the meantime becoming quite proa-
porous in business. In 1882 Francis became -
came unumorod of a woman by the name
of Siiphior , and finally , in 1881 , loft his
homo and abandoned his family , and
joined the woman Saphier and left , it is
supposed , for Montana. This was the
last hoard of him until 188 ! ) , when ho
returned to his homo , sought forgive
ness , was received into the bosom of his
family , and after that lived with his
wife as her husband. Ho lived with her
till in January of this year , when ho
died. It was after his death that she
heard that her husband had obtained a
divorce out in Montana , and she im
mediately instituted proceedings to have
the decrco set aside , with the rebult that
the court granted her petition and re
stored her to her marital rights.
James Stalcton wns a rising young
mechamc of Johnstown , Pa. Miss Mln-
nio Apporson was a young lady of un
usual beauty when their courtship
began. Stalcton by economy and thrift
hail just finished providing himself with
a homo , when ho thought himself in
j prosperous enough circumstances to *
! marry. Miss Apporson looked with
' favor on the suit of the young mechanic
and the couple were married a , few days
before the Johnstown disaster. Their
honeymoon was rudely broken in the
ruin that over whelmed that town and in
the confusion and terror of that awful
catastrophe husband and wife were torn
asunder , and each thought that the
other had perished. For weeks Stale-
ton walked about the place , expecting in
every mangled form that was taken
out of the ruins to discover the lifeless
features of his brido. But in this ho
was dUappolntod , and , hopeless and
broken in spirit , ho loft and settled In
California. In the nioanthno , uflur un

Stalcton had given up her husband for

the couple drifted apart , husettling on a
