ELY COGHLAN'S CHOICE.
How the New York Divorce Courts "
Robbed of u Sensation.

How the New York Divorce Courts Were
Robbed Of Sensation.
When Miss Ely Coghlan was returning to
America, some three years ago, she met an
engaging young Englishman on board the
steamer, and it was not long before they be-
came mutually interested. Esteem ripened
SO quickly into affection that when this i'm
pressionable young couple landed in New
York they repaired at once to the mayors office
and were made man and wife. The happy
bridegroom said that he was civil engineer,
and that his name was Battam. He was a
handsome, cultivated young fellow, and Miss
Ely was preparing to idolize him, when he
suddenly disappeared after honeymoon of
some ten days. The bride was amazed and
outraged but, as the days grew into months
and the months into years, her lacerated
heart gradually healed, and very few people
remembered that she had ever married. One
day last week Mr.. Battam turned up in New
York and at once sought out his wife. She
received him frigidly in the presence of her
distinguished sister Rose, and the latter urged
upon him the necessity of granting his much
abused wife divorce, hut Mr. Battan de-
INJURED, and as the time for the elder sister TO
go to the theatre had come, the long separated
couple were left to adjust their differences.
How well they employed the time may be
Judged from the fact that when Miss Coghlan
came home at night she found a little note
that ran something like this
DEAR ROSE Mr.. Battam and have made up
and have gone down to the Fifth Avenue hotel
where we shall remain for the present.
Your loving ELY.
Thus has the divorce court been robbed OF
another sensation. 1t may be amiss, how.
ever, to hope that Mr.. Battam may not be
again attacked with the migratory fever.

Wire fences make worse roads than do
the rail or board fences. with such q
quantity of snow as there is this winter.
The snow is piled up with great regular
ity having its greatest hight midway
between the fences forming hog back.
Turning out" is wholly out of the quss-
ton where the road is bounded by wire
fences. There has been very little
shoveling done and the great depth OF
snow prevents the track from solidifying.
When "bob- sleigh" slides off the track,
it is difficult matter to get it on again.
Not in years has there been 80 much
snow at one time on the level. Should
it go off hurriedly in the spring there
will be dangerous freshet.

January. One of the steamers of the F.

made an attempt to reach her but could
not get nearer than one mile. The mate
of the imprisoned steamer walked across
the ice but had very perilous trip and
occupied an hour in making the journey.
He houndered through snow drifts and
broke through the ice three times. The
steamer has been using bran for fuel, re-
serving its IL tons of coal for use in
reaching port after the ice field breaks
up. The provisions for the use of the
crew are not yet exhausted and at the
worst she q carries cargo of -four.
