have been obliged to Bacrflce their goods In
order to obtuln money to keep n float , whole
salers and Jobbers have been on the brink of
ruin and failure , all eager to get rid of goods
even at a fourth of their value , at nny price
that would enable them to stave oft the bad

SAN FRANOISCO , Aug. 25. A strange
story of one man's perfidy has come to light
In the divorce court here. Mrs. Annie Allls ,
an employe of a New York publishing house ,
has begun an action for the annullment of a
divorce which her husband , Edmund C ,
Allla. obtained from her In San Uonlto
county , this stale. In April last. The prq-
ceedlng rovrula another chapter In a domes-
He episode that startled society In St. Paul.
Minn. , in 1885. At that tlmo Edmund C.
Allls was an attorney of that city and a
pillar ot Christ church. Ho disappeared
mysteriously , and at first It x as thought that
he had defaulted with funds of the church
of which he was treasurer. It transpired
that he had eloppd with a girl named Sophia
Sandercon , who had been a friend of Mrs.
Allls' In Philadelphia before her marriage.
Mrs. Allls traced the guilty couple to Louls-
vlllo. Then Allls deserted the Sanderson
Kl'l , who went back to hrr homo In Phila
delphia , and the wronged wife went to live
with tier husband In Boston. She'waa
doomed to disappointment , however , accord
ing to the complaint filed today. Her husband
deserted her nguln In 1KS9. running away
with a ylrl referred to In the complaint as
'VKnma. " ivhose ruin he liad accomplished ,
This girl , . It 1 ; alleged , was deserted In the

From ISM until the present year Mrs.
Allls heard nothlni ; of hr ti < or tnt > t'p3u e.
Her flrnl Information was received In April
last , when she Ic.irnpd of the divorce ob
tained In California under allegations of
detmlon and extreme cruelty. Allls , It la
charged , represented that Ills wife "was a
resident of New London , Conn. , and caused
tlio summons to be mailed there , knowing
that It was not likely ever to reach her.
Allls has since married an estimable ? oung

the leading attorneys of the city this after
noon , Judge Keith , I' . J , Rogdo and C. L.

bring disbarment proceedings against Donovan

clients to swear to a legal residence In the
slate several months before such residence
could b ; legally established , and have ad
vertised In various eastern papers offering
to obtain divorces contrary to law. flic
movement grows out of the refusal ot a
divorce yesterday by Judge Jones because

that she had deliberately perjured hersIf.
The motcment has caused a sensation , as

CHAMBERLAIN , S. D. , Aug. 25. ( Special

Interest at Klmball. The decision of Judge

licrili In Omaliu't Cliurrlun.
Messrs. Stevens and Hrcnimn , the ctn-
tnllteo appointed by the Cnthollcs of Hast
ings to present to Mgr. Satollt a protest \
against the removal of Rev. J. English , pas
tor ot the church , to an Interior plac. , ar
rived In Omaha yesterday atlertuon on their
way lo Washington. They were met at tbo
depot by Mr. James p , English of this city ,
brother of Father Kngllsh , and together they
proceeded to the national capital.
Tlie business of the delegation Is to pro
test against the removal of Father English
from Hastings to David City. Under the
Baltimore rules governing the removal of
priests , bishops ore prohibited from remov
ing a priest from one parish to an inferior
one , except for "grave reasons. " Ths reasons
or offenses , of which the bishop Is the sole
judge , arc- those affecting the spiritual life
of tha accused. Accusations ot mismanage
ment , Incompctency and others affecting tem
poral affairs are determined by a diocesan
court composed of priests. The latter form
ha a not been Invoked In the case of Father
English. It IB presumed , therefore , that the
"grave of.'ense" mentioned In Mgr. Satolll's
letter nra of the first named class. Fatbcr
English Indignantly denounces and repels
as utterly baseless any and nil charges
against his character as a man and priest ,
and U Is the purpose tf the delegation to
secure a copy of tl.o so-called charges , so
that the accused may foes his accusers and
vindicate himself.
The protest adopted by the Hastings con
gregation which the delegation presents Is
as follows :
To the Most Rev. Mgr. SatolH : The under
signed members of the congregation of the
parish of Hastings. Neb , , In the diocese of
Lincoln , Neb. , most respectfully represent to
your grace that Father English has been In
the city ot Hastings for alK years last past
as parish priest , and that during all of said
time he has conducted himself and his parish
In such a manner as to at the present time
possess the confidence , admiration and ven
eration of the people of Hastings , Catholics
as well as Protestants , and particularly the
Catholics.
We therefore , ot the laity , petition your

"This last ttrlkeas a mighty bad thing
for the men vho are employed In the packIng -
Ing houses hero , " said a gentleman , who Is
a general foreman In one of the houses.
"Before the strike I always hired the men
nnd fixed the pay for each man who was put
to work. For icven years I fought con
stantly for high wages nnd succeeded In
keeping the pay of the men up to n standard
which I considered was Just. Some of the
men appreciated this fact , while others did
not. AVhen the men commenced going out
this time I was surprised lo see fellows
walk out who were getting from 2.ri to 60
cents a day more than other good men could
be secured at for the same work. Hut they
wenl , and now I am done with Iho whole
question ot pay. If these men can ac
complish anything by bull-hcaded strlkcs , all
right. From now on when a man shows up
at our plant for a job I engage him and then
send him to the olllce to nnd out what pay
ho Is to get. I have worked for years taklnit
the part of the workmen and trying to Xceji
up wages , but now they can go to the olllco
and deal with the gentlemen there. I will
sea that they do plenty of work nnd earn
nil the money the men In the otllce agree lo
give them. " _ .

BIGGEST AUDIENCE YET.
I.n l Night \VltnM < ( l ( liirgrnni I'omprll
Vfturlnt Ate 111 * Xupper vrllh llclnt.
Excursionists came from near and far by
liundrtds , and Oniahnni assembled by thou
sands at Courtland beach last evening , anil
1'aln'n "Last Days of l > ompell" was prc-
tfiitcd In a. manner that ought to have de
lighted every ono of the lO.WO-odd persona
In attendance , the largest audience yet had.
The ballet , the tumble , wrestlers anil
other performers wereat their best , and
their efforts to please > \cre received with
prolonged applause. It was "Omaha day , "
and the beach management hna reason to feel
proud of the manner In which the Omahnna
turned out.
At "Pompeii" all progressed In splendid
style until the day's festivities -nero over
and the populace assembled at lots' temple.
It was Ihcn that Olaucus refused lo > kneel to
the golden calf , and thcro was trouble.
Qlaucus unit a Christian with a bit of common
Bcnse , and he could not see where the calf
had anything to do with his future. After
thinking the matter over he came to the con
clusion that ho could see no reason In Iho
wide , wide world why ho should soil hla
pink tights by kneeling to the calf. So
when tlu > doors of the templewcro thrown
open and the canting priests carried out his
caltlots , ho looked on nnd smiled at the
crowd kneeling to the piece of glided veal.
That made Arbaces hot under the collar ,
and In a few words that cannot be produced
In print he ordered ( llaucun to kneel. "Not
on your life , " says tl.iucus ; "I'm next to-
this business , Arbaces , old boy ; you're workIng -
Ing for a laundry , and by making ; everybody
kneel soil their tights , so you can gel the
job lo wash them , but jou'll not catch me.
I've got a boll on each knee and I can't
kneel. "
That made Arbnces mad and ho pulled hla
s\sord. Glaucus had worked as a bartender
and was quick at pulling , and out came his
piece of steel. Doth were game and went
nt each other. The scrap was a good one.
but before It was llnlsneci old Vesuvius
began to have the nightmare. The lobster
he had eaten early In the day began to move ,
and It was not for the good of the persons
who were spending Iho summer at "Pompeii. "
They were dead on how Vesuvius acted
when he was not fepllng well , consequently
Arbaces turned his head for a moment to
see what was going on , anil Olaucus got In
his work.
He grabbed lone and Nydta , two Intimate-
friends of his , and made for the woods.
He was wise , for Just then Vesuvius belched
forth , and all that he had In him. The
earth quaked , people screamed and fled lo
ihe only place of safety , the sea. Hut II
was a long CJuttctiberK stretch , and they
wcro caught under the wireby Vesuvius.
That was the last day of Pompeii so far
as last night's audience \\as concerned.
The fireworks following were the finest yet
seen. The rockets , bombs and water devils ,
the big set pieces , the funny elephant and ,
monkey gymnast were magnificent.
My permission of Mr. Pain , Messrs Tre-
vanlon and Condon will , at 4 o'clock this
afternoon and at 7 30 this evening , give a
special performance on the horizontal bar.
Their performance Is ono of the games which
entertain Arbaces and lone In the "Last
Days of I'ompell , " nnd Its excellence has led
the management to believe that n special
appearance ot the two artists will be gratify
ing to the public.
They Caught 1'oMrr.
The Milwaukee police nojlned Chief Seavey
last-night that they had captured Ed Foster ,
alias Vex , and eic holding him subject to
orders from Omaha.
Foster worked for an Installment house at
1C03 Howard street nnd elcrped with some
of the collections , so say the proprietors ,

be sent to the Cream City to bring Postci
backto stand trial for grand larceny.
