Biganiy by a Divorced Husband

DlSaIAlJ ny u DAVOEccU 11uSDa1lu'
From the New York Tr:bune.
Constantine Faber was tried yesterday
before Judge Gildersleeve in the court
ofgeneral sessions on charge Of bisamy.
He is a butcher, and lives at No. ll79
I'd ave. He had been divorced from his
first wife Before marrying the second,
but the decree granting the divorce for
babe him to marry second time. Both
of the wives were in court and appeared
as witnesses. Ellen A. Braden, aged
twenty-six, No. 4S2 Hudson street, testi-
fed that she was married to Faber in
February, 1877, but in September, 1881,
she secured divorce from him in the
supreme court. A copy OF the decree
granted by Judge Lawrence, was pro-
duced in court, and both marriage Ger
tificates were shown: Miss Mary West;
aged seventeen, who had been married
to Faber last April by the Rev. Charles
Reuss, testified to that fact. William F.
Knitting; the prisoners counsel; moved
that the case be dismissed on the ground
that the first marriage had been ai{nulied
by the decree of divorce, and that the
second marriage was therefore not biga-
my, but simply a contempt Of court in
violating Judge Lawrence's order. The
motion was denied, and no defense be-
ing made the defendant was convicted.

How American Girls Talk.

We are told that talking is only va

over the rows oflounging chairs on deck,

About this early American talk there
is no gabble. These young women ria-

naturally as Mr.. Henry Erving, and
without the hooking twinkle Of having
something in reserve which renders the
talk of that eminent actor not unpleas-
antly irritating. English girls at the
same age talk as It were with their
hands behind them, as Tito conceal a
skipping rope. The Yankee girl looks

A FURIOUS cyclone swept over the
towns of Beauregard and Wesson, Miss
issippi, last Sunday, at 4 p. m, killing
forty persons and injuring many others.
Other places were badly damaged, and
suffered severe loss of life. The town Of
Beauregard was entirely swept away.
Loaded freight cars were lifted from the
track and thrown 200 yards. The storm
is the worst that can be remembered in
the South, and one of the worst known
in the United States. Reports from other
parts of the South show that the storm
was more than local in its scope. In
Georgia over thirty deaths are reported.
