e,at ia a Diporce Salt.
This was suit by Mr.. Frederick Warbur-
ton Stent sor the dissolution of his marriage
with Mrs. Eliza tent, whose maiden name
twas Mannings, on the ground of her adult
cry with Gen. Alexander Low.
Mr.. Searle appeared for the petitioner;
neither the respondent nor correspondent
defended the suit.
Mr.. Stent was examined and stated that
he was an architect. He married the re-
spondent in May, 1861, and there were two
surviving children of the marriage Up to
the goth of May, 1882, his wife and he had
lived most happily. For some time before
that date her health had become affected in
such way that DR.. Mathews Duncan was
consulted, and he advised that Mrs, Stent
should proceed to Kreuznach, in Germany,
to take the waters there. As it seemed likely
that her sojourn abroad would have to be a
long one, it was impossible, owing to his
having to attend to his profession,
that the witness could 90 to
Kreuznach and there stay with his wife; and
Gen. Low, being an intimate friend of Mr..
and Mrs. Stent's of many years standing, it
was arranged, after friendly consultation,
that the correspondent should accompany
Mrs. Stent and her daughter, who was about
20 years old Sat that time,' said the wit
ness, II had not the slightest suspicion of
the correspondent, who is nearly 10, [ should
think. | thought / was acting with a gentle
man, and not with a scoundrel.'' From the
time Of her departure till October, 1888, the
witness received about one hundred letters
from his wife, dated at Kreuznach, Wildbad
and Geneva. All those communications
were affectionate, but in them Mrs. Stent
did not speak of returning home. Finding
that she was about to spend a second winter
abroad he made inquiries, which led to Mr..
Hart Smith, his solicitor and friend, pro-
ceeding to Geneva. In consequence of
what Mr.. Smith reported to him the proceed
ings III this court were instituted.
Mr. Edward Hart Smith was examined
and stated that in October, 1888, he had an
interview with Mrs. Stent at Geneva, in the
hotel where she, her daughter, and the co
respondent were staying. He asked Mrs.
Stent whether she meant to return to her
husband and family. She replied that she
did not, and that she had thrown in her lot
with the correspondent. The respondent and
the correspondent made no secret to him of
the illicit relation between them. but told
him that Miss Stent had no suspicion of
them. He subsequently accompanied Miss
Stent to Antwerp, where they met the petit
toner, in November he again went to Gene
va and served the respondent and the CO.
respondent with citations.
The evidence of George Muntz, head wait
er in d hotel at Bale, Switzerland, was read.
1t was taken in April, 1884, and Muntz de-
posed that the respondent and correspondent
were then living at the hotel as man and
wife.
The president pronounced decree nisi

4 rarsia" bird cnarme,'s Singular Por-
TPall Mall Gazet,e.l

Paris has found new sensation in bird
charmer, who has been astonishing the boul-
evardierS with his powers. A bet was made
between him and NJ. Loizey, gentleman
who was rather skeptical in such matters.
The conditions were that NJ. Loizey should
furnish dozen birds, which were to be at
the disposal of the eharmer for fifteen min
utes. At the end of that time NJ Picard was
to open the cage which contained them and
each bird was to alight upon certain arbut-
us, brought upon the ground by him and
placed at a distance of 100 metres from the
point where they were liberated. For each
bird which did not obey the charm within
quarter of an hour VI. Picard was to pay "
lolzey fifty francs, and for each bird which
did NJ Loizey was to pay NJ. Picard the same
sum.
When the time for the test arrived so large
and 50 curious crowd had gathered on the
Champs de Mars that it was impossible to
maintain the needful space of 100 meters
around the spot where the cage was placed
Forty meters was all the distance that could
DC secured. The results. therefore were not
accepted Is determining the bet, and another
trial will be made. The birds, however-re-
leased under these conditions-few. one bv
one. TO the arbutus aud pcrched ON its
branches, TO the great establishment of the
spectators. VI. Picard's charm consists, it is
believed, in impregnating these branches
with ,solorless and mysterious liquid, the
secret of which is as vet his own.

La,cn Tennis Champions Win IN England.
London Field

LatCn Tennis Champions Win in England.
London Field.
Notwithstanding the fact of there being
very few matches of much interest to be
played off to-day, a fair assemblage in point
of numbers gathered together on the cricket
ground in Liverpool to witness the final tie
in the gentlemen's doubles between the Cam
bridge pair, Messrs. Wiberforce and Mac
naghten, and Messrs. Sears and Dwight.
The Americans lost the toss, and had to play
with the sun in their eyes for the opening
set, and this they lost anyhow, only gaining
two games. and by many it was thought that
the match would prove runaway one; but,
on changing ends, Messrs. Sears ard Dwight
commenced playing in very much better
form, and, in spite of their being no sun to
bother their opponents, very easily gained
the second set.
In the third set was seen really beautiful
exhibition of lawn tennis, the rallies being
long and extremely well contested, while the
seventh game was gem in its way, the play
on both sides being as fine as has ever been
seen in double match. This set was taken
by the Americans, and they seemed as If they
they were going to win the fourth very easily
at one time, but, slackening trihe in their
play, the Cambridge pair not only brought
the score level, but afterward had it called
five games to four in their favor. A splen-
didly served love game was then won by Mr.
Sears and after he and his partner had won
the advantage game, and they again had the
score called games all, they won the thir-
teenth and fourteenth games, and SO secured
the set and match after some really wonder
fully fine play. The games in the match
stood % to IL in their favor, and at the con-
clusion the applause was long and loud, no
one apparently grudging the Americans their
hardly-earned victory; indeed, on all sides
congratulations were showered upon them.
Messrs. Sears and Dwight may be said to
have won the match by their good general
ship, in keeping their returns well out of Mr..
Wilberforce's way, as, when he did obtain
possession of the ball, his strokes were ex-
tremely severe. Mr.. Sears played most
steadily all through the match, while Mr.
Dwight's returns of, at times, most difficult
balls were extremely brilliant, and fully de-
served the applause they gained. In the
Veterans singles Dr. Rooke-Leg showed
himself well in front of his brethren, very
easily defeating Mr.. Fraser in the final round
losing only two games in the two sets. DR..
Rooke-Ley did not lose a set to any of his OPP
ponents in either of the three rounds. The
ties liz the ladies' doubles and ladies' and
gentlemen's doubles were both 7ery easily
won, and do not need mention here. All
the five consolation events were preceded
with, particulars of which will be given next

A Four-year-old Rousterer.

Ada A. Pigott was divorced from Robert Pigot.
or child, Scott C. Pigott, being awarded to the
mother. Since that time Robert Pigott has ap-
piled to have the son removed from the mothers
care and placed under his own. The reasons for
the removal he puts down as these That the
boy is allowed to roam the streets at will, that he
drinks beer, smokes cigarettes, uses vulgar lam
guage, is vicious, and terror generally.

THE ELMS OF ELMO.


Q Mary, put your work away,
And let US for while be gay,
And watch the yellow perches play
Beneath the elms of Elmo.
The summer now is in its prime,
And, just to pass away the time,
III make simple little rhyme
About the elms of Elmo.
The brown thrush sings on every tree,
The cat-bird trills his gushing glee,
And not less happy, love, are we
By the triplet Gins of Elmo.
The grossbeak with his rosy breast,
The oliole in orange dressed,
With music welcome every guest
That seeks the elms of Elmo.
Wild roses bloom along the shore
With pinks and harebells covered o'er;-
Their fragrance on the breeze they pour
That stirs the elms of Elmo.
The boatman sets his snowy sail
To catch the gentle evening gale,
While lovers tell the ancient tale
Around the elms of Elmo.
That tender tale, so often told
When sheep are gathering to the fold;-
Though ancient, it will meier be old
Beneath the elms of Elmo.
AS with our boat we smoothly glide,
Well watch the water-lilies ride
Upon the gently -heaving tide
That layes the elms of Elmo.
Wen watch the rowing dragon-fy
Dart to and fro across the sky,
AS free from care as you and I,
Or the happy elms of Elmo.
Should coming years, to you and me,
Bring thoughtful care, as it may be,
Yet still, in fancy, we shall see
The three green elms Of Elmo.
And in our LIES declining day,
Wen not forget, though far away,
That youthful lovers still are gay
Beneath the elms of Elmo.
Come, Mary, leave your work to-day,
And let us watch the perches play,
And while the pleasant hours away
BY the bonnie elms of Elmo.
