n Scandal which Comes from RipOu
College. in Wisconsin.

Some crooked transactions OF Alvin H. Sabiu,
formerly professor or chemistry at the college
In Ripon. Wisconsin, have created a scandal
there. Sabln lost his wife year ago, and after
attending her funeral exchanged his mourning
suit for hunting costume and drove into the
country 10 XIII prairie chickens. His ecceutricl-
ties were, however, attributed to grief at the
death OF his wife, and his health failing he gave
up his position as professor and accepted the
profeSSor5bip OF chemistry In the Vermont Uni
yerSity at Bennington. Last June he revisited
Ripon, and Miss Barden, a studeat OF the college
was taken by him on drive to Spring lake. sac
vacation, where she was visited several times
by Sab'n. Miss Barden, on returning to the
college, rOOmed with Miss Brown, and the lat
ter found among her letters one addressed 10
Miss Barden, written by Sabin, q portion of
which was grossly Immoral, and alluded {,
certain things that should only be referred to
By those OF opposite sexes under cover OF a
marriage certificate. This portion OF the letter
had been written with some kind OF Invisible
fluid. which could only be developed by the
application OF heat or some chemical appliance
The faculty OF the college sent letter to Sabin,
demanding that he make amends TO Miss Bar
den by marrying her. Sabin, in return, de-
manded the return OF the letter TO him; but In
poirtment at Chicago and they were there
quietly married. She returned to RDon Col.
lege but was told that she could not be ad-
mitted as pupil. She demanded the missing
letter, and IL was given to her on condition
that she signed receipt. In signing she made
use OF her new name OF Mrs. Sabin, which WAS
the first iDtimation that she was q married
woman. She has not joined her husband. but
| Is boarding at Ripon.

A LADY,S FOOT.
How It's Measurement Secured a
Verdict for a Thousand Dollars.

The trial or the damage case OF Mrs. Clara
Brady against the city OF Cleveland was con-
Guided few days since. The lady sued for
$4,000 damages for bodily Injuries received
by her by falling into a hole In the 18th street
bridge, while passing along that thorough
fare at night The defense proved that
the hole which occasioned the damage
was a very small one, being only three inches
wide by twelve inches long. The plaintiff
had testified that she stepped into the hole
and sank up TO her knee, receiving abrasions
OF the skin and GRIPPING her arm. doubt
was raised In the minds OF the jury as TO
whether a lady with medium-sized foot and
ankle could sink so far into so small hole.
Ladies or the Cinderella pattern have very
small feet but as MIS- Bradys had not been
exhibited In evidence, how could the jury tell
whether she wore No. 6S or No. 1857 The
PLAINTIFFS attorney saw that he had a very
small hole TO crawl out OF, but he was equal to
the emergency He procured twelve inch
rule OF standard gauge and proceeded to measur re
his clients loot In presence of the jury. he
showed that the foot was just 90 inches wide
at the broadeSf part and not over S inches in
length with the shoe on. He went no further
but the Jury we're satisfied that the foot was
smaller than the hole In the bridge and they
gave verdict for the plaintin in the sum OF
