Ekphh ~ S3tSVA ARR~~
About q week since q str lnge lady ar
rived in this city, and registered at one OF
the hotels. Her very gentesl appearance
attracted the attention Of all in whose
society she was for the time b ing thrown !;
but her very reticent manner concerning
where she came from, her obj ct in COM
ing. and her destination, was ev N more
noticeable. On Sunday moruin last she
left her temporary place Of abode, and en-
gagged passage on the southern stage for
Genoa. When the coach arrived at that
point, the usual small crowd was at the
station to see what passengers we're aboard.
The idlers who saw the afore mentioned
genteel lady alight had no ilei that she
would give them food for the choicest bit
Of scandal-mongering which ever fell to
the lot Of the ultra respectable Genoese.
The lady went to the hotel and was shown
into the parlor Of the house, which was at
the time occupied by several o.her ladies'.
She Immediately instituted inquiries re-
specting one r. G. Guirado, when
one Of the ladies stepped up and said
II can give you all the information you
wish respecting the gentleman; he is my
husband" The stranger looked perfectly
terror-stricken at this announcement, and
it was several moments ere she could gain
sufficient presence Of mind to reply, when
she said '.You must be mistaken,
madam, for he is my husband" This
naturally produced a very sentimental
scene. as could be we'll expected. At
length the two ladies decided % visit Gui-
radios place Of business, lie keeping Q
drugstore in that town. G.ir dos con-
sternation at seeing his two wives enter
his store at one time must h v, been per-

soon after this visit, the strange lady
swore out a warrant for the arr est OF Gui-
RADIO on a charge Of bigany, and AZ he is
unable to furnish bail, he is laDguishing
in the bastils Of Genoa. The accused de-
MES ever having been married to the lady
who claims to be his first wife, but does
not deny that he had for u lorg while prior
to his coming to this State lived with her
upon terms Of the greatest init macy. The
lady, on the contrary, refntes Gairado's
statements. and says that she wa married to
him somewhere in the south IN part Of
California, and to s~ubstantiate these facts
she has telegraphed to Los Ang les to her
brother, who lives there, to come to her
and bring her marriage certificats and the
affidavit Of the Justice Of the p ace who
married them. The brother with her evil
dence Is expected 70 arrive mere on the
train this morning, when the guilt or in
nocence Of the accused will be established. |
Much sympathy is manifested for the
lady at Genoa. who, strange to re-
late, is temporarily residing with he moth
