Geo. D. Ellis.

This fellow has worked upon the sympa-
thies of the editors of the Denison Herald
News and that paper, In its issue of Aug.
9th, has published the following statement
for him:
81 was married in Lawrence, Mo-, to
Miss Cora Allen NY wife died two years
ago In st. Louis | have never paid any at.
tention to any woman since have NO To-
lention of getting married, and sm not now
waiting on any young lady admit that i
vas indiscreet with Mrs Rinker, who is
dressmaker, widow and middle aged
woman; we went together to the Willard
hotel In Sedalia and registered as man and
wife this act constitutes all the marriage
ceremony that took place between us; up
on this register she is now suing ne for
msintainance in Sedalia; this suit will
come up the third Monday of this month,
ard | will furnish the people of DeDison
all the testimony in the case, properly au-
Ihenticated, to be published in the Herald
News, whether for or against me-"
Ellis did not marry Miss Cora Allen.
Miss Allen did reside at Barry, Ills. Ellis
has no wife dead as far as known
but has seven or eight living.
Mrs. Mary Ellis, whom he married in
Kansas City, was divorced In the Cooper
county circuit court.
We don't believe Ellis was ever in. Sc
dalia with Mrs. Rinker, and Mrs. Rinker
is unknown here. The Willard hotel has
been out of existence six years. Mrs.
Rinker has no suit in our courts against
Ellis. The first court We have here is In
September, and Ellis has no suit in that or
any other court here. Any woman that
would sue Ellis for maintainance is a fit
candidate for the insane asylum.
Will the Herald-News state that Mr.. Ell
lis is a monumental and colossal liar and
breeder OF lies?
Evidence was forwarded TO Denison last
night, to be shown to any party who is in
Ierested enough to look into the matter.
The Herald News further SAYS:
"Mr. Ellis left for Sedalia last night He
will return about September 5th, and asks
a suspension of public opinion until then"
Ellis possibly may go back to Denison,
but don't think he will. III, however, ne
does return he will put up some plausible
story about the "maintainance" suit being
continued or something else to deceive the
people

Ellis Aroused.

Denison, Texas, August 5.-lspecial.l-
An article In Sundays issue of the BAZoo,
about George d. Ellis, is creating great
deal of excitement here. II is the talk OF
the town. Ellis, since his stay here,
has been very attentive to one of our .soci-
ETY. young ladies, Miss Anna Lipscomb,
and engaged to her. The marriage was
to occur last week, but owing to some cir
cumstances not known it was postponed
until next week. Ellis denies the
charges that are brought against him by
the BAzoo and gives parties here names
parties in Sedalia for reference. The
Evening Journal this afternoon says: "The
charges brought against Mr.. Ellis by the
Sedalia BAzoo are very serious ones and
that their columns are at his service If he
wishes to maxi any defence" Ellis lett
at 1s:45 tonight on the north bound train.
