About a month ago handsomely dressed
young woman. giving her name as Jennie
Pierce, from Dorchester. Wis, arrived in
this city and swore out a warrant against
one George H.nstOn, charging him with
bastardy. She stated to County Attorney
Davis that she was the daughter
of a milliner at Dorchester, and
made the acquaintance of Hinston
about six months ago. He proposed
marriage. and the ceremony was performed
at a neighboring town. After they had
lived together for five or six weeks he sud
denly disappeared. She searched for him
in vain, and discovered that the marriage
was mock one Finally she heard that
he was in Minneapolis, and finding that she
was encente, swore out the warrant. Yes
terday Detective John Hoy recognized
Hinston from the description given
and arrested him. He admits that he has
been intimate with the girl. but denies the
marriage. He claims that his father Is
wealthy citizen of Portage Wis, and that
the arrest is simply a blackmaIling scheme
to extort money. He alleges that he once
offered $40, 600 to settle the case, and, be
ing refused, left Wisconsin. He is abou,
s5 years old. has good address, and for
while worked as clerk at the Pauly house.

The conclusion of the WOodside- Morgan

rise to nearly everybody, when announced
esterday morning. The referee has with

The referee last night declared the race

sporting Editor OF the Globe:
I have made some further inquiries in re-
gard to last nights 100-mile bicycle race. and

technicality and claim that if Morgan was
given the race they were entitled to the
money they bet on his winning it. To pro-
vide against this, therefore, the race and bets
are declared of. | regret that this course is

j. I. NANNY.
1t is doubted whether the referee in this
decision has not exceeded his prerogatives.
though his honesty of intention is not Ques-
toned. His real or su pposed knowledge of
any private agreement among the men could
not affect the actual race. Morgan, without
fOuling. came in ahead, won the race and
should have been declared entitled to the
stakes, after which the referee was at liberty
to express his opinion of the honesty of the
race and to declare bets off. 1t is a matter
of regret that it is necessary to question the
fairness of the match.
