question may require. g,..frssth ts,f3;soa Da
- Ans,cer-- The word Eve Is derived from
the verb hayoh, meaning TO live, and was
applied to her as athe mother, of all living"
She was the mother Of. Cain, Abel and Seth,
and with the birth Of the last her history in
the Scriptures ceases. There are several
references TO hsrs in the New Testam ment.
Our correspondent probably refers to "a ira

Rabbis that Eve was not the first wi fe of
Adam. It runs thats befop her creations .
wife had been created IN the same way,
which, they sagaciously observe, accounts

governing the case Is as follows: Animals,
alive, specially imported for breeding pur-

The divorce case of Christiancy, minis
ter to Peru, against his wife, Lille N.
Christiancy, was taken up in the equity
court to-day. Defendant filed a motion
in opposition to the appointment of a
commission to take the testimony of Emil
Gire, who it is alleged occupied room
with Mrs. Christiancy at the St. James
hotel in this city, in December last. Mrs.
Christiancy says her financial condition
is such as to render it impossible to attend
the taking of dispositions in New York,
to pay necessary expenses of counsel
to attend the same, and that in
case the motion is granted, her case will
be greatly prejudiced unless the court
will make an order for plaintiff to ad-
vance the necessary expenses of the court
After hearing the application made, an
order was made appointing Horatio c.
King, Of New York, as commissioner to
take the testimony of Gire.
