Jennie Hughes, q handsome actress of
New York claims to have married a
wealthy man named John j. Floyd Haigh.
She admits, however, that she knew Haigh
was already married, and had indeed been
introduced to his wife. Haigh bought her
fine establishment, permitted her to use
horses and carriages, etc. and matters
were exceedingly pleasant for time But
Haigh learned that Jennie was a sweet
heart of Max Maretzek, and immediately
grew jealous OF that gentleman. A sep
aratlon followed, Hal Oh getting back as
much OF his property as he could. Jennie
got an engagement at the Globe theater.

Then Jennie got angry in turn, and brought
two suits against Haigh, one tor libel and
the other for bigamy. Haigh's friends
claim that it is a case Of blackmail; and
such it probably is. But both parties are
exceedingly foolish, and it wouldn't in

found themselves in State prison. There

Then he sat down and reflected on the circum-
stance, in the endeayor to learn how it happen-

he had to give up. By cautious inquiry, he
learned that the doctor, for the benefit of his
students, had procured from distant city a
negro subject for dissection; that when they
had cut and carved to their satisfaction, the
ground outside being frozen, and the coored
individual having no rights Of sepulchre which
white men were bound to respect, they buried
