NUMBER TWO.
The Adventures of a Stranger and
His Bride in the city.

This morning there came in on the train
from the west a couple from the rural
district. who had evidently just been mar
ried. The young man could not look his
companion in the face without blushing,
and she was equally confused. They went
to hotel and the young man registered
his name and just below it, that OF his
wife.
"You want separate apartments ] pre-
sume?" said the gentlema My clerk,
"Eh?"
You want separate rOoms?"
The rustic PLAYED with the pen in an
absent manner. He looked at the blush
ing young lady then at the clerk. Then
he looked at the book. Finally he said:
"She's my wife" jerking his left thumb
toward the lady.
"Oh, just married ?" queried the clerk as
if he didn't know.
Eyes sir
And the young man blushed and hung
his head. The clerk tapped the bell.
"Show this gentleman number two"
But we only want one roOm?" said the
groom.
That's all right Number two"
81 tell you We want one room and We
want one alone too" And the young man
looked as though ready for fight when
the porter finally persuaded him to come.
The trio mounted the stairs, the groom
watching the porter furtively while the
brides face rivaled red rose
When the reporter left the porter was
was trying to explain the mysteries of the
gas jet and the working of the hydranx.

HIS DIVORCED WIFE.
Guiteau's Former Wife Inter
viewed by q Leadville Re-
porter.

Mrs. Theodore Dunsmire, the divorced
wife Of Guiteau, has been interviewed by a
reporter Of Lcadville paper. She says
that she was married to Dunsmire ut BOul-
der, Colorado, in 1878, and is now residing
in this city. She showed the decree Of d.
vorce granted in 1874, on the ground Of
adultery, allowing her alimony and pro-
hibiting Guiteau from marrying until her
death. She says he was very cruel to her
from the time Of marriage; that when he
was member Of Henry Ward Beecher's
church he would lead in prayer, and IS
soon as the meeting was dismissed tell her
Of some Of his swindling schemes; that
when given note to collect for client he
would turn over only half the collection
and report it was impossible to collect the
remainder. While in New York Guiteau
gave all his money and time to fast houses
and finally told her she would have to
support herself. She went to Saratoga
and remained there two months. On her
return ii was found that Guiteau had a
loathsome disease Her friends discovered
the fact and advised her to get divorce,
which she did. She was afterwards clerk
in the treasury department at Washington.
He never paid any alimony. Last Febru-
airy she received note from him request
ing permission to re-marry. She answered
saying permission would be granted ON the
payment Of 500. He wrote again saying
he had no money. He said he was about
to marry a wealthy lady, and would pay
the money as soon as he married. To this
she paid no attention.
Mrs.. Dunsmire thinks the attempt to as
the president was simply prompt
ID by his morbid desire for notoriety, for
which he would, she shinks, give up his
life.

Deputy Constable Barnett arrested the
notorious Mollie Lake, this afternoon at
her ranch in the western part Of the city,
on a warrant charging her with keeping a
baudy house. She asked for permfssou to
step into the next room to arrange her
toilet. He being rather bashful, consented
to her going as he did not want to see her
change her clothes in his presence. She
went and he sat down in chair to wait
for her. After waiting something less than
= century he commenced to make inquiry
about his prisoner. He then found that
she had took her departure through rear
door. He returned to the house withou
her.

While in St. Louis last Monday evening
Governor Crittenden was interviewed by a
reporter of the Globe Democrat. In an
swer to the question as to whether the Tai

said:

that it has developed the largest amount
Of stalwart, able-bodied lying in the his
tory of criminal matters in this state. And

Curious Phenomenon.

In q villa near Vera Cruz, two days
after a violent thunderstorm recently,
On immense cloud was seen rising out
of the ground. An Indian, going to
his maize field, situated Oh a hill, dis
covered that the va2or issued out of his
field. HIS attempt TO approach the
column was thwalted by the extreme
heat of the vapor. The extension Of
the column was some thirty square
yards, and the vapor issued OF intervals
of five minutes. The smoke was so
dense that tho eye could not sec the
trees on the other side of the column.
The maize field was completely burned,
and as the vapor came Gus on other
spots covered with trees the leaves were
burned and the trunks became black.
The phenomenon lasted nearly seven
days, and is attributed to underground
fires connected with the volcanoes Of
Orizaba and Tuxtla.

Miraculous Escape.


It is an experience vouchsafed to very
few, to tread along the border land OF
death and yet come back to life, preserved
us if by amiracle. Yet such was tho ex-
perience of Professor lice, of St. Louis,
the day following the conclusion OF his
course of lectures at Burlington, Iowa,
lately, as we learned from MI. Saml L..
Pyle, the well-known druggist of Mt.
Pleasant, in relation TO the case. Pro-
lessor Tice gives the strongest indorse'
ment of the efficacy of st. Jacobs Oil,
which it is possible to give. 1t pro.
duced immediate relief in an attack OF
neuralgia of the chest, where the pulse
lad gone down to thirty-tive per min
ute, and scarcely perceptible. In half
an hour his pulse was restored to It's
normal beat of eighty. Four appoint.
ments of lectures had to be cancelled in
consequence. Professor lice credits
tho St. Jacobs Oil with having saved
his life. Mr.. Geo. +. ". Wiley, the
widely-known teacher here, in response
to an inquiry concerning the remedy,
said: With great pleasure l bear testi-
mony to the peculiar healing properties
of St. Jacobs OIL, in rheumatic pains.
Having been a sufferer with this dis
tressing malady for years I do say that
the curative effects of the st. Jacobs
Oil in my case surpassed those of any
other rheumatic remedy, many Of which
1 had been forced to use. MIR. E. Rugg
spoke from personal experience in stat
ing that he had suffered a great deal
from rheumatism, and been troubled at
different times with sore throat. he
purchased a bottle of st. Jacobs Oil
from Mr.. Pyle, and after three or four
applications was relieved of his ailment.
Asking Mr.. w. A. Rouse what he knew
about the article he said After great
suffering with pain in the left side, at
tended with severe collie, l was recon-
mended to use St. Jacobs Oil. [ pur.
chased q bottle, took two doses and ap-
piled some externally. [ was relieved
Immediately and have not experienced
any pain since; that of my left side
from which I had suffered for more
than n year having left me. Such
experiences as these carry conviction
with them to all fair. minded and
thoughtful people, and more firmly
establish the merit of that famous
remedy which, too, has u indorse-
ment.
