WOMANsS TNHUMAN1TY TO MAN.
A Heartless Bride Runs Away with
Her Husbands Money and Leaves
HIN to Mourn in Solitude.
Frank Tutt1e's cup of sorrow was full yes
terday. He lay in the lookup at the central
station on a hard wooden bench, clad in a
blue and white checked blouse and an old
pair of pants. 1t was not exactly wedding
garment, nor yet was his attitude that of
happy bridegroom. He rolled about uneasi-
w. He told in plaintive tones the story of a
sad marriage which illustrated woman's
inhumanity to man and showed how painful
~ the confiding nature of a friendless male
had been deceived by a designing woman.
His hopes were blasted, his love had been
trampled under foot, his modest advances
had been scorned and his pocketbook was
emptier by $3.50. What had he to Fay for it9
Nothing but an empty marriage certificate,
an aching head, bed in the police station
and host of narrowing memories.
1t was about four weeks ago that the guile
less Tuttle met the faithless Annie Mckenzie.
He loved She dissembled To his entreaties
she turned deaf ear, save on one condition.
He must give her money. He was cook,
she laundry girl. He devoted himself to
her assiduously. He cooked her mutton
chops more carefully than he did the rest.
He took her to the ten cent show and prom
ised her $500 if she would become Mrs. Tut
tie. She finally assented, and Tuesday night
at 9 o'clock the Rev. Mr. Hancock made
them man and wife. Before the ceremony he
gave her $3.50, all in crisp SO bills. After the
ceremony they went to friend of the brides
and there she was left for the night, he go
ing to his home on Washington street.
The next morning disinterested married
woman, Mrs. Lyons, told the bridegroom
that she had heard that he had given Annie
$3.50. She told him to beware, as Annie was
fooling him. The bridegroo1n's left eye
opened slowly He went to his love and ac-
cused her of playing him. She got angry
and left the room. In twenty minutes she
had flown. In hot haste futile went for
nally went to the depot, where he found the
faithless woman with ticket in her
hand just getting aboard north
bound train. She refused to have
anything to say to him further
than that she was done with him
said she intended to keep it. AS the train was
moving off futile leaped aboard. He had
no idea where he was going, but was deter
mined to go with his wife.
'sI would have followed her even to Africa
OF China he said yesterday in recounting
his adventures. 81 wouldn't have minded
the expense. I had money enough. She
said she had bought ticket for California.
When the conductor came along and asked
me for my ticket 1 told him
didn't have any. He wanted to know
where was going I told him I didn't
know I paid my fare to Meriden. She
didn't get off there and SO paid to Hart
ford There she left the train. I followed
She entered the depot and lost sight of her
in the crowd. I told policeman about it,
but as she was my wife he said he couldn't
arrest her. I made up my mind to como
back to New Haven and go to work at the
Yale club on High street."
When Tuttle reached New Haven at ]
o'clock yesterday afternoon he was quite
drunk and was arrested by Officer Kennedy.
He had $195 in his pockets.
