Moro Ocdou House Litigation.
The suit , of John II , Bentley against
Charles K. Hamilton Is now on trial before
Judge Smith. It grows out of a trade be
tween the parties last summer when Bentley
retired from the management In favor of
Hamilton. The latter , so Bentley claims ,
agreed to pay JC50 for the possession of the
hotel while the Grand Army encampment was
here , but only paid $350. Hamilton claims
that Bentlcy's representations as to the style
and quality of tha furnishings of the hotel
were false , as shown by the Invoice , and not
only denies that Bentley has anything com
ing to him , but demands back his $350. The
plaintiff's motion to strike the part uf the
defendant's answer In which he claims dam
ages to his business and credit was sus
tained by Judge Smith yesterday and the
rest of the motion was overruled.

SAD AND BAD LIFE OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN

NEW YORK , Dec. G. The death of Mrs.
Edith Armstiong , beter known as "Dovle"
Corastock , In a Kansas'Jail ends a strange
career of a beautiful but notorious woman.
She was the daughter of D. C. Forney ,
founder of the Washington Chronicle , and a
nleca of John W. Forney.
All those who knew "Dovle" Comstock In
her childhood tpeak of her dainty beauty.
The name was given her because it fitted
her. She was a laughing , wayward child.
It seemed natural that she should fall In
love with Walter Q. Comstock of Providence ,
who was rich , young and handsome. Ills
father was very rich. He ls a near relative
of the Armours and was in the wholesale
meat business. They lived In Providence on
Parkls avenue In the finest house In the
aristocratic Elvvood section. They plunged
at once Into the social whirl. It was not
long before she gathered about her a coterie
of young men , many of them not in the
fashionable eet. These young men drank
quantities of wine. Young Comstock was at
first delighted with his wife. Then his eyes
opened and he got a divorce.
It Is said that the co-respondent was Sam
uel Post , the man who was killed by Ella
Nelson. Some time after the divorce Mrs.
Comstock came to New York and lived in
various hottls. In July , 1S90 , she moved to
344 Smith street , Brooklyn. It was there
she met Theodore Larblg , who lost his life
through her. He was 43 years of ago and
a man who had seen life.
Constant Intercourse with many people ,
coupled with checkered and valuable experi
ence In California , had given him a certain
polish. But It was lilsKr u ( strength and
his confident manner which attracted Mrs.
Comstock. He became n constant visitor at
her flat when he was In-town.
In May the moved td 27fi Sackett street
and took as a boarder DarwlilJ. Mcserole , son
of General Meserole. She I tad known Mes-
erole several years and iad been very Inti
mate with him. On June 27 , 1891 , Larblg
called at the house and began quarreling
with Mrs. Comstock. Meserole Interfered
and a fight ensued , In which Meserole shot
and killed Larblg. ToeJ trial attracted a
good deal of attention. IThe young man was
acquitted , William J. Whjfor was counsel
for the detente.
Ten months later "Dovle" was married to
John L. Watklns , and a short time after
wards she went west. * Being a victim of
the opium habit her downfall was rapid.

from Illegal Fnles of liquor. The druifglf.ta
