From the Jeffersonville , ( Ind. )
Evening News we learn of the
marriage there of R. S. Dennis ,
formerly of this city , to Mrs. Eve
lyn Perry , last Saturday night.
A year ago last January Dennis
left Valentine to enter the govern
ment employ as a painter and was
sent to Jeffersonville , Ind. , where
he has since remained. He left
his wife and child , a little girl then
five years old , here and promised
to send for them as soon as he
could , which he never done. Once ,
last December , he sent § 5 to his
wife and told her that was all the
money he had and which is all she
received from him since he left.
Dennis was married at Gloucester ,
Mass. , in 1889 , and while a soldier
in the 12th infantry , stationed at
Ft. Niobrara , was married to Miss
Emma Downing , Sept. 23 , 1897 ,
whom he left here to work for her
living and support their child ,
while he spent his earnings reck
lessly. Mrs. Emma Dennis is a
respectable woman , of good ap
pearance and deserving of bettei
treatment than she received at the
hands of Dennis , even while he
lived with her. Mrs. Dennis se
cured a divorce March 20,1905
and was awarded § 360 alimony
which however she has never re
ceived.

Cleveland , who was sent to jail

Judge Holcomb telegraphed the
stay to Chadron , where Crites was

Daniel Mcltenney.
Did ye ever hear tell of old Daniel
McKenney
The man with the razor in Sag-
eser's shop ?
A dale of a talker and josher was
tenny
And stayed with his glass till he
drank the last drop.
A right clever man was this Dan
iel McKeEney ;
He'd traveled through quite a large
bit of the world :
For the drawin' of pictures off
hand there warn't any
Could bate him or kape near's a
stone that is hurl'd.
Old Dan was a sportsman for hunt
ing wild game ;
The boys are all ears as they sit
on the rail
To hear his wild stories of "am
bush" and "fame , "
How he'd trail any jack as had salt
on his tail.
Now , Mac was a knight of the
razor , was he ,
For the scrapin' of faces Mac
surely was right ;
His welcome so hearty , his speech
full and free ,
No wonder we missed him last
Saturday night.
For feed or livery call on the
Eagle Livery. Commercial trade
a specialty. We have some good
second hand buggies and harness
for sale. Call and see us.

Superstition * Parnell.
Miss Charlotte McCarthy , daughter
of Justin McCarthy , told a curious
Btory of Charles Stewart Parnell. "One
evening , " says she , "Parnell was talk *
ing to me at the coffee stage of dinner ,
and I , gazing at him with rapture , was
vaguely stirring mine and going to
drink It when he said : 'You must not
drink that. You have stirred It the
"Wrong way , and it would be unluckj * .
Get another cup. ' "What struck me as
strange in this was not his being su
perstitious every one who knew him
nt all knew that but his extraordinary
power of observation. "
