Mrs. Davis was led up stairs to the
bedroom of Mrs. Fenner, where the
ladies tried to aSsuage her grief. she
bore the awful blow bravely, but her
breathing was labored and her cOndf-
ton so weak that the two doctors COZ
suited her. They pronounced her
weakness to be that only consequent on
the strain and the grief, and said
that nothing was to be feared. Wnen
the family had partially recovered from
the terrible shock, Mr., Farrar went 70

sent dispatches to Miss Winnie Davis,
who is in Paris with Mrs. Pulitzer, 10

night stated that he and Judge Fehner
would not take any steps looking to the
funeral until they had held a consuita-

too much grieved by her severe loss to
be approached on the subject. Mr..
Farrar is fully acquainted with all the
details of Mr.. Davis will, bnt he stated
that he did not know but Mrs. Davis
received some final wish from her hus-
band regarding the place of burial. Mr.:
Farrar did not know if the burial would
take place in thsi city or not, and al

a proclamation announcing MIR. DAVIS
death and inviting the presidents OF the
various exchanges and commercial
bodies and a number of prominent clti-
Zens to meet at the city hall in order
that proper arrangements may be made
for the funderal. The mayor says:

owe him honor and reverence.

Atlanta, Biloxi, Memphis. Louisville
and many other points, all expressive OF
respect for the dead and of sympathy
for Mrs. Davis in her affilction. The ill
ness of Mr.. Davis had been watched
with deep anxiety here. and arrange
ments had been made to announce his
death by the ringing of the fire bells.

central station at 1880 this morning,
and in few minutes the mOurnful
notes of the bells conveyed the intellI
gence of the death to the city. Many
people gathered at the hotels, and at 3

the ground that it did not fit, and iii addi-
ton was more expensive than size bad eX-
pected it to have been. Mrs. Walshe de-
clined to accept the dress until she had
consulted her counsel Mr.. Atwood. He
advised her to sue for the recoyery of the
amount. The case was tried on Saturday
last and Mr.. Atwood overwhelmingly
proved the justice of his clients claim;
showed that even Mrs. Bell herself, after
she had tried ON the wedding dress, had
stated to two witnesses that She was de
lighted, and that the dress was Gust too
lovely for anything" The prosecution
was relentless in its scope and evidence.
Mrs. Bells lawyer, who fought hard to
break down the plaintiffs witnesses, then
called Mrs. Bell herself to prove that she
was not of age, and that she had no power
under the law to contract a debt of any
kind. He also called Mrs. Bells married
sister in confederation regarding the
minority of Mrs. Bell. Lawyer Atwood

that she will not pay for her wedding

our defence" "Well, then" said Mr..
Atwood, Il give you notice now to have
good and sufficient bail ready to keep Mrs.
Bell out of Jail, for | will arrest her at
once ON a criminal charge" "Oh, WE'LL
said Mrs. Bells attorney, "we will with
draw the plea and let you take judgment
for the amount" The case has created a
great deal of excitement among the friends
of Mrs. Bell, and everyone wonders why
her husband just married to her would
permit his honeymoon to be ~festooned with
such a scandalous proceeding as that of
his bride refusing to pay for her wedding
dress.
