he alleges that she had sex
ual intercourse with the said
Schmahl, and that on the same
night he saw her enter dlsreputable
house in company with prostitute and
two men. They stayed in the house
some time, and he AYERS and alleges that
she did then and there commit the crime
of adultery. Oct. IS, 1886, she. again
committed adultery with Schmahl, and
shortly after visited several houses OF
ill-fame. He claims that she kept rooms
where she entertained strange men, and
was in the habit of sending her two lit
tie daughters, aged eleven and fourteen,
to public houses of prostitution. Other
alleged facts are embodied in his an
RIVER. He therefore asks the court. to
grant her nothing in her suit, and prays
for the custody of the children and an
absolute divorce on the ground OF
adultery

WHERE THE AGENT FAILED.
She Ran Across a Man Who Had

She Ran Across a Man VINO HAD
Read the Work Before,
Chicago Mail.
l happened yesterday into the Office
of man who is well known in literary
circles, both in New York and Chicago.
perhaps better known in the former
city. In the chair beside his desk, de-
signed as reception chair for visitors,
sat woman with the look of business
stamped on every feature of her face.
l could, not help ovarhearing a part of
the conversation, and from its tone |
CLEANED that it did not partake Of a pri-
vate nature, and l listened. The woman
was book agent and was trying to sell
volume to this man. NO" he said,
"I1will not purchase the book, for l
have copy OF it now in my library. L
have never read my copy of the book,
but know it is good story. for l have
read it no less than four times"
%Whatp' exclaimed the woman; ST
don't understand you. You say you
have a copy of this book, have never
read 1t, and yet you have read the story
four timesw
f'Preeisely, madam, and was the first
person to read the story after the author
had finished writing it,"
fNeH, now, l have canvasSed for this
book for long time, but in all my eX-
perience with it l have never before
run across such strange case as yours"
81 will explain it to you. The book is
published by the Scribners. At the time
it was received for publication / was
connected with the house. l read the
manuscript, and when it was put in
type read the first proof. Then | read
and corrected two subsequent proofs.
| became so familiar with the story that
although l received copy of the book
when finished have never read it,
The woman was satisfied and with
drew. After she had gone my friend
told me something remarkable about
this agent. He said:
ssThat is one of the most successful
book canvasSers that ever handled a
subscription book. She has sold suffi-
Gent number of copies of this one book
to net her $4,000 in commissions. She
came here from New York, where she
sold, in Wall street Offices alone, 1900
copies.
ION her list OF subscribers which she
asked me to look over | noticed large
number of prominent New York names.
Among them were the autograph sigma
lures of Vice President-eleet Morton,
Chauncey M. Depew, Cyrus W. Field,
Delaney Nicoll and number of others
that do not now recall.
Eyes, she is very successful, and I
think I can safely say that she earns
from $4,000 to $1,000 per year selling
books"

ward to discuss levee matters was held
at La Fountains hall last evening. A.
BaOEitt made an elaborate report, CIV
ing the legal status of former .condem-
nation! action, by which large tracts of
land were claimed to have been ac-
quiredby the city for levee purposes.
He stated that the district court Of Da
kota county had declared the proceed
ingS illegal for want Of proper confirma-
ton notices. Also that some of the per-
sons who had executed deeds to the
city claimed that they did so under
fraudulent representations by city
officials.
1t was developed that the city had ac-
quired about 10 per cent of the land
needed and that 60 per cent must be ac-
CURED. The draft of the bill offered by
Frank E. Chapman, relating to the use
of the levee by the railroads, was criti-
cised by Judge E. H. Wood, who
claimed that in the first instance
the annual floods and to protect
the homes of the people living on the
flats. They had either given theirprop-
erty or sold it at very low figure for
levee and had not secured it. He did
think levee was necessary now, as
streets had been graded. and all the dis
trict above State street was protected.
He was in favor of having parties who
gave deeds refund to the city the money
received, and have the property re-
turned and streets below State street
graded.
A. M. Lawton and DR.. Snyder strong
ly advocated building the levee. and ex-
pressed belief that not only the Sixth
ward, but the whole city, would be ben
Gifted.
A resolution to the effect that all pro-
ceedings to secure levee be aban-
doned, was laid over for discussion at
the next meeting, to be held Monday
evening, Jan. IA.
Messrs. A. M. Lawton, W. r. Sache,
Joseph Minea, S. Lee Davis and Paul
Martin were appointed a committee to
ascertain the value of the property not
already acquired by the city.
