st one way, and that was toward Tottie.
After dinner he would sip his coffee At a
table in tho bar and gaze at Tottie,
who was serving the liquors, and when
others wero not present, or buried in
their papers, or doing, the young man
would he chatting with the pretty bar
maid, 50 that the two soon got very
chummv. Indeed, it is said that once
when Tottie was hard pressed by too
many thirsty customers Maurice came to
the rescue and assisted her. Besides all
these attentions he frequently drove her
out. that she might point out TO him the
objects Of interest in the neighbOrhoOd,
one OF which is 4 place which, if lovers
do not usually visit it, they at least talk
Is il they had been there, and that is
Barney castle, though it isn't affirmed
that either Maurice or TOttie kissed the
Barney stone.
Naturally al this attracted attention
and when one DAY q steamer came along
and picked UP the young gunpowder
millionaire, those who had been watch
ing the proceedings felt sorry for Tott;e.
for II looked Is il she had been jiltod.
Il is said that the course Of true love
never runs smooth. This IS not SO with
reference to -Iauricc and Tottic, for their
love affair ran rs smooth as = tObOCgan
slide though perhaps not quite as fast
as a tobogcan. Maurice sailed over the
sen and got the consent cf al his rela-
tives to his marriage with Tottie Though
as ho had no mother or father, there was
not much use asking anybody's conseDD
and went bccl, ID Queenstown, and the
bsuo5 were published, and tic prospec-
tive groom spent 10 end Of money in a
trousseau, and ono fao day in October
of this year. they were married in the
church of IS. Peter and Paul by the
Rev. Canon Shcehan.

THE CRONIN CASE.
Examination of witnesses Continued

Or Witnesses SOnt1nueU
---Nothing New Developed.
CHICAGO, Nov. 1s.-1n the Cronin case
to-day, Peter Koch testified that Kunz
made the acquaintance of Coughlin
upon entering their employment to
ferret out the authors of the dynamite
explosion at Lynch's distillery, and SUBJ
sequently he changed his name because
of trouble with another man, who
threatened him with arrest.
James Highland testified that he and
his cousin, Josiah, drank two glasses of
sherry each and took cigar with O'Sul.
Carlson's cottage on the night of Sun.
day, May 5. Witness was some
what taller than Coughlin and his
cousin about the same height as Kunzc.
This testimony was introduced to
contradict that of Saloon keeper
Nehman that o. Sullivan, Coughlin and
kunze drank sherry and took cigars in
his saloon on the night of the murder.
Ex.Dcctective Whalen, who was Dan
Cougilin's partner on the force. was the
next witness. He testified to having
seen Coughlin about the East Chicago
police station about 1880 on the night
that Cronin was murdered and several
times thereafter up to 10 o'clock, when
they parted. The fact was brought out
on cross-eSamination that Whalen and
OSullivan are cousins, and that wit
ness brother and wife keep house for
USullivan.
Sergeant John Stiff said that after roll
call, about 8 or 9:30 O'Clock on the night
of May 4, he went outside the station
and met Officers Whalen and Coughlin
together. They had drink and talked
over some changes in the department
for five or ten minutes, after which Stiit
went away. Cross.examination brought
out the fact that Stiff travelled about
with Whalsn for many years.

COMING TO SPOKANE.
n Pennsylvania Teacher who IL
Armed with n winchester,

Yesterday was day long to be re-
membered by the high school pu-
pills. During the fore part of the
week the scholars were surprised at
the very unexpected news that one
of their teachers, Mark +. Menden-
hall, was soon to leave them To 10 to
accept position in Spokane Falls,
Wash.
Yesterday morning was the time
of the first leave taking and as to-
ken of the esteem and appreciation
of his labors among them, the
teachers and scholars presented him
with an elegant Winchester rifle,
II. G.. Wilson making the presenta-
ton address. After the presenta-
ton of the rifle, Mr.. Wilson read
the following resolutions, which
were presented to him by the menu
bers of the senior class:
Whereas, Our esteemed teacher, Prof.
Mark #. Mendenhall, has decided to
sever his connection with the high
school to take up his residence in Spo-
kaue Falls, Wash. Therefore be it
Resolved, That We, the members of the
senior class, deeply feel the loss of our
faithful teacher, whose place will be
ditficult to fill. We viii fondly cherish
recollections of past associations in our
classes, especially physics, when we re
member the instructive lectures which
made that study so interesting. Further
be 1t
Resolved, That we will ever hold in
memory, in connection with many other
things, his scientific quotation: "Some-
where yet that atoms force moves the
light poised universe Further be it
Resolved, That we, in behalf OF the
members of the Altoona High school,
wish him abundance of success in his
new field of labor where rolls the Ore
gon and hears no sound save its own
uushinub

"PALOUSE GAS-EATERS'
Perilous and Unpleasant Expert.
ence of Two Estimable Ladies
From Palouse.
They Blew Out the Gas, and
Could Not Understand What
Was the Matter.

Two well-known Colfax ladies',
one married and the other single,
who came over on the excursion
train Saturday to attend the Lib
erati concert, came very near fur
nishing first-class item In the way
of double funeral by blowing out
the gas in their room at the Lewis
house. 1t was late when they re-
tired, perhaps A. NJ, and some
time afterwards two Of the ladies of
the house, who slept in an adjoining
room, were awakened 10y the smell
of gas. They got up and went pros
pecting, and finally located the
room in which the gas was escaping.
They heard the ColfaX ladies get up
and raise the window, and suppos-
ing they had discovered their mis-
take and turned Off the gas, they re-
tired again.
But the Colfax ladies had done
nothing of the kind. They had
awakened and found the room full
of gas, but had not the remotest
idea what it was or where it came
from. They raised the window,
which allowed much gas to escape
from the room, and went back to
bed, and the gas was still flowing
when they were called by the big
brother of the younger lady early in
the morning. The married lady
was SO sick she could not raise her
head. Late in the afternoon she
was much better, and was taken out
for Al drive, and the bracing air
