Seeking n Second Divorce.
THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH MA
MARRIED THE SAME WOMAN TWICE.

MARRIED THE SAME WOMAN TWICE.
Philadelphia Times.
A peculiar story Of marital yicissitldeS
was told Wednesday in the report Of an
examiner in divorce suit filed in the
Court OF Common Pleas. The libellani Is
a well-known businessman with grown
up family. The woman from whom he
now seeks to be separated he was divorced
from before about three years ago. The
circumstances attending his remarriage are
taken az a ground why the marriage
should be dissolved. or. rather, declared
void After the first divorce had been
granted the libellant paid attentions to a
woman who was living apart from her hus-
band, but had not been separated by jul
dicial decree. Her husband was ferOcious-
y jealous OF her. The divorced woman
was aware OF this fact and determined to
Use ii against the man she called husband.
for she, on her part, was jealous OF the
second woman and had an eyer-haunting
fear that the easy divorce laws Of Pennsyl-
yania would suggest some means by which
the two could become man and wife. so
she followed the pair increasingly. At last
she got her former spouse into the corner
towards which she had been pushing him.
"NOw," she said, al have got you"
"Well, what are you going to do about
it," asked the eX-husband, sullenly.
Z" am going TO tell that woman's hus-
band"
"Welli"
"Y0u know his temper. You know
that he will kill you on sight. There is
only one way TO get out Of danger"
"Howi"
" BY remarrying me-"
The libellant declares that being In NOR
tai fear he consented TO the arrangement.
The wedding took place almost immediate
Y. The man claims that the marriage was
not bis voluntary act, but was procured by
duress, and he asks that 1t be declared null
and OF no effect. The suit was not opposed.
A rule TO show cause why the decree should
not be granted will probably be taken.

THE EFFECT OF THE TRIAL.


Sin the first place. II this mans nerves
are so delicate a. to enable him to locate
minerals and hidden waters, the problem
OF the effect OF terrestrial magnetism upon
the human nerves is solved. Ii then re-
mains to invent machinery to gauge this
effect, so that the exact distance OF the de-
posts below the surface OF the ground
may be determined. This is the prac-
teal result OF the investigation. Then,
ii 1t be proven that this mans
nerves are so delicate as TO admit OF
the manifestation OF the influence of ter
restrial magnetism in tins shape, why may
1t not follow that there may be human
nerves so much more delicate as to come
within the influence Of more subtle agen-
ciesi II Is an established scientific fact
that there are influences at work affecting
the more delicate nerves of which the or
binary perceptions are not cognizant. The
human eye can see comparatively little un-
aided; with the microscope the field OF
vision Is broadened. To my mind, il
there can be conceived some way for thus
intensifying and rendering more ex.
quisitely sensitive the perceptions, the
effect Of multitudes of agencies, of
the existence Of which we are now
utterly ignorant, would be rendered
apparent. This broadening OF the sphere
OF the perceptions 1 consider by no
means impossible. As for the scientific
value OF my western subject, i believe that
II 1t is true that one set OF nerves may be
thus subtle and affected by agencies which
40 not affect ordinary persons, ii reasona-
bly, follows that there may be other sets Of
nerves equally delicate In other directions.
The next thing is to find a specimen. /
do not think the commission view with
much favor the examination OF so-called
spirit mediums. The wisest men are apt
70 be deceived. One man In an hour can
invent more tricks than wiser man can
solve In year."

Cameron wrote to friend in Philadelphia re-
Gently that he was not having such a royalty
good time as some people said he would.
The English country, he says, is very pretty,
but not nearly SO interesting as the country
about Harrisburg. The old church architec-

London he likes. He ran across Tom Ochil-
tree at the Ascot races, and he says of the
meeting: "a mother with a new baby could
not be more pleased than was seeing Toms
red head and hearing him talk in his good old
Texas-American Style" Don gives no init

The Obvious Duty,
From the Baltimore American.

from the Baltimore American.
Inasmuch as the plague is known to be APP
preaching the United States, every family
and every community obviously ought
to prepare itself TO meet ii. 1t is Of the ut
most importance to cleasne outhouses and
backyards, to dispose of every scrap of de-
cayed vegetables and animal matter, to pour
sunlight and air into damp, dark cellars, and,
above all, to see to il that there is absolutely
no drainage from cesspools into cisterns and
wells. Every householder must look out for
these things for himself, bearing in mind that in
making ready TO ward off cholera, he is also
averting diptheria, scarlet fever and 9th er
scourges. Towns and cities, moreover, have
wsning OF the impending pestilence in time
to improve their sewerage and water connec-
nections where they are defective, and to put
their streets into proper shape.

Southern View Of the Strike.

From the savannah Morning News.
In the South the business community sym
pathizes with the strikers. When all the facts
of the situation are carefully considered, the
conclusion is universal that ii is a powerful
and grasping monopoly on one side and its
poorly paid and oppressed employees on the
other. The American instinct for fair play
for the under dog in the fight is reinforced by
the fact that the demands Of the strikers are
not unreasonable.

He Did His Own Dentistry.


From the Albany, Ga, News.
Mr.W. w. Johnson, of East Dougherty,
was in the city yesterday, and exhibited a
front tooth which he plugged with his own
hands over 80 years ago. He used an awl to
clean out the cavity, and packed the lead in
with the same instrument, after beating it out
as thin as possible on an anvil The tooth is
in perfect state Of preservation and bids fair
to last as long as the man.
