making the trip, and her mother as readily
conceded. Mrs Charpentier counted out,
she says, 81 600 in money twelve times,
wrapped each thousand dollars into a
package by itself, and Eugene placed them
in her young lovers hands with such an
enchanting air eff love and confidence that
young Garrett must have carried her face
with him in his travel across the con-
tinent. For he went, and he had a great
time, and is said to have cut great
splurge. He wrote home frequently, and
his letters were always addressed to
Eugene. He is master of French, and
he mingled words of love and business in
her own mother tongue when he wrote.
When he came back he was less approach
able than he had been befors he went.
With a sad heart sweet Eugene noticed
that he was not so demonstrative in his
affection, and did not seem disposed to
tell her all that had happened and all that
he had done with the same beautiful air OF
confidence with which she had placed her
little fortune in his hand. And he kept
growing colder aud colder and colder un-
til finally he kept out of their way alto
gether.
Pretty Eugene began to cry, and her
mother began to suspect and doubt, and
finally she began to clamor for an account
ing by the young lawyer and for settle
ment And SO things went along till one
day Eugenie received dainty missiye
from the postman. She shrieked as she
tore open the envelope. 1t enclosed
WEDDING CARDS,
announcing the approaching marriage at
st. Colombia's Catholic Church, on
Twenty-ninth street, of Henry D. Garrett
to MISS O'Sullivan. Miss O'Sullisan is

wealth-somethiDg of a politician, too-in
New York. Garrett amused himself, while
his second flame was preparing her we'd
ding trousseau, by laughing and joking
over the manner in which he had hood
Winked and deceived and Tilted the pretty
little French baker-girl; and on the day of
the wedding he had the wedding process
sion pass right in front of her store, and
put his head out of the window as he rode
by to let her know that she had lost him
beyond all redemption. OF course the
little French maid was in horrible state
of hutter and excitement; for she stood IN
| the window with flushed cheeks and fash
ing eyes, as the gaudy display dragged
slowly along. To her eyes the wed ding
procession was funeral parade.
Hhe two women-the young one and the
old one-felt that insult had been added
to injury and naturally eaough their love
was turned to hate, and their confidence
into revenge They laid the facts before
lawyer Charles FL. Machin, who does bust
ness ia the Evening Post building in New
York; and formal charge of having en-
bezzled the $4,000 with which he had
started for the West was made against him
| in the Jefferson Market Police Court. He
was arrested, and a friend of his father-in-
lava man named Mike Curley-became
surety in $4,000 for his appearance in
| Court at an examination that was begun
Friday. On Friday, Garrett was followed
into Court by his surety. CurleY had

any longer. The fashionable young lawyer
was in danger of getting into Jail till his re-
Gently welded wife persuaded her mother

| day when he was formally held for trial.
WHAT GARRETT SAYS.
A SUNDAY MORNING News reporter saw
Garrett IN his Office yesterday morning.
| He did not have en- his gorgeous leather
and fur dressing gown; but he was got up
regardless. He said that the two French
women were liars; that he had never court
ed the girl; that he had never promised to
marry her; that they had never given him
| $12, 900; that they gave him but So, 900,
and that he is able to show vouchers for the
expenditure OF every cent of that money.
This may all be true; but it is not the
only accusation that is pending against the
fashy young LAWYER. A SUNDAY MORNING
NEWS reporter Yves given another little cue
yesterday that unearthed another charge
of crime against him. Counsellor Thomas
McAdam, of Temple Court, in New York.
was visited some time ago by widow
| named Arthur, who says that Garrett
| swINDLED HER TOO.
Her husband, who died recently, left her
little piece of property on West Nine
tenth street, between Ninth and Tenth
avenues. A party offered to buy it at
So, 900, and she agreed to sell it at $4,000
cash, and mortgage of $4,000
Garrett was employed to make the
transfer, and it is alleged that a
check for So, 900 drawn, to the order of
Mrs. Arthur, Yves placed in his hand for
delivery to her. 1t is said that he dehb-
erately forged her endorsement, and on it
received the money from the bank. The
poor woman. had been forced by her neces-
| sites to make the sale, but Garrett kept
putting her off from day to day with the
plea that no money had yet been received
from the purchaser of her little hone.
Convinced finally that he had been decely-
ing her, she had warrant issued for his
arrest, and he was taken into custody.
But to escape imprisonment he paid $500
down and promised to pay the balance in
instalments. Several of these instalm ents
have fallen due, but up to yesterday only
the second $500 had been received. The
lawyers are not pre- ssing him into PRISON,
as they say they might, because they hope,
by giving MIN chance, to get back all the
money he has swindled Mrs. Arthur out of.
