Judge Morrison is another lover of the

The club house. which is now being
built Oh Raspberry island, will be 9OXl65
feet, and will give accommodation for
five Kinks. The building is being erected
under the supervision of Willard IL JOY,
the well known architects, and Will cost
$4,000. The main building will be of

floor of the building will be composed
of one and three-Quarters inches of

moisture can penetrate. A two-horse
power electrical engine and rotary
pump will supply the water for flooding
the Kinks, SO that on the prepared floor

will be Illuminated by the electric light,
and st. Paul will possess a curling club

HE LED A DOUBLE LIFE.
A Brooklyn Travelling Man tn
Head of Two Families.


Head of Two Families.
New York Special.
The dual life that Ernest August
Hack, a Brooklyn travelling salesman,
has been leading for more than a year
was revealed to-day throu yh an applica-
ton to Justice Goetling by Mrs. Marie
Hack, his second wife, for warrant on
charges Of bigamy and assault.
Mrs. Hack, who is tall and attract
i've, said she was widow living in Chi
cago in the early part of 1889, when she
met Hack. He represented to her that
he was single and in receipt of a good
salary as salesman. By the death of
her first husband, in 1885, she was left a
large sum of money, which she invested
in real estate. Hack induced her to
come to Brooklyn and get married.
Everything went along smoothly, Mrs.
Hack never suspecting that her hus-
band had another wife and children
living only a short distance from her
abode. After their marriage Hack was
III the habit of leaving home to go on
business trips into the country.
While he was away on one of these
alleged trips few days ago Mrs. Hack
accidentally discovered in one of her
husbands pockets a letter written in a
feminine hand and signed Bertha Hack.
The contents of the letter told Hack to
hurry home from his Out-of-town trip,
as he was the happy father of bounc-
ing girl. The letter surprised its finder,
and she went quietly to work to locate
Bertha.
Mrs. Hack. as the result of an investi-
cation, found Bertha Hack and three
children. The latter told her visitor
that she was the lawful wife of Ernest
August Hack, and that the three chill
dren were hers. When the second Mrs.
Hack asked to see the certificate of mar
riage she was told that Hack had de-
stroyed it few months ago, but further
information furnished led her to call on
a German clergyman who had baptized
two of.Hack's children, and then she
was convinced OF her husbands decep-
ton.
She revealed to Bertha Hack her hus-
bands second marriage, and then re-
turned home and looked for her mar
riage certificate. That, too, was gone.
Friday Hack returned, and his second
wife accused him of having deceived
her. When Hack learned that she knew
of his past exploits, he assaulted her
and then threatened to blow out her
brains if she made any trouble for him
Mrs. Hack told Justice Goetling her
husband had already secured a good
portion of her money, and she wanted
it returned. The granting of warrant
was deferred till Monday, when both
wives will be present in court TO sign
affidavits that charge Hack with bigamy.

MY BOOKS.

They dwell in the odor of camphor,
They stand in Shraton shrine,
They are warranted ''early editions"

In their redoIent crushed Levant,"
With their dc .icate watered Innings,
They are jewels of price, grant;
Blind-tooled and morocco jointed,
They have Zaehnsdorf daintiest dress,
They are graceful, alternate, polished,
But they gather the dust, no less.

And the little old cropped Moliere,

And the Rabelais foxed and flea d.

SAINT CECILIA.

A woman with charmed hand
To wake sweet music-yea, saint
Whose home is in the mystic land
Where poets sing and painters paint.
She wears soft and old world grace,
Her eyes are large with reverie;
Her solemn organ fills the place
With sounds that set the spirit free.
The lily is her flower, and meek
Her look is, as the flowers own;
She hath no color in her cheek;
One thinks of her as oft alone.
Rubens once wrought her, playing there,
And made her beautiful, yet missed
The holiness, the pensive air
OF one whose face high heaven has
kissed.
And Carlo Dolci tried, nor failed;
Cecilia sits and plays, and seems
A saint whose soul is uuassalled,
And yet the woman Of our dreams.

ID. Bertram left off making caricatures
of Kittel Halvorsen long enough to echo
it. Finally, the wild-eyed and hollow
checked longing for recreation found
expression in the organization of the
Capitol Bowling club. A bowling club

julie Lawrence, after delivering the
ball, never rises until he sees the eXecn-

S. e. 1verson goes into bowling as if
it were the one object of his life. His

Wellington at Waterloo.
Matt Jensen, after every bowl, is
willing to wager his salary that the

The club meets every Thursday even
ing at the alley on Third street west,
but there is match every day simply
for relief from the carklng cares of
state. For each weekly contest there
is gold badge for the winner and a
silver medal for the lowest score; and
! it is engrossed in the traditions of the
club that A. II. Bertram invariably
wins the silver medalsand invariably
wears it out of sight. The members
have developed great diversity of style
and ingenuity of delivery, and it is a
circus unadorned to watch full game.
Col. Bobleter stands with negligent
poise. with one pin standing. and bets
on his ability to scoop it with small
ball.
A. B. Wood has curve that would

he can make serpentine curve that

Commissioner Ives has re fused to
bowl unless he is allowed to chalk his
feet. He invariably falls down, and
the owner complains that it damages
his alleys.
j. L. Helm has legal style of twist,
and has great difficulty in concealing
the fact that ne is left-handed.
Capt. Chantier runs about one-third
of the alley with the large. ball, and
pushes it through the pins. When he

aud tried to find some evidence Of wrong

The meeting abounded In funny sit.
uations, and the tilts between Chairman

tended TO cause %uproarous laughter.
Mr.. 0kane was the chief iuquisitcr,
and exponudOr Of law, the other met up.
patently feeling that they were very
small actors In q roaring farce.
Mr.. O'kane was very forcible and
pointed IN hia questions, but Mr.. Park,
who answered Tor the Board, kept his
head, and gave rs good rs he received.
Mr.. O'knne asked why the Board had
not paved EotT street from Eleventh to
Twelfth, that being his hobby.
Mr.. Park-liow can VIC pave it when
the Finance Committee Inns taken the
money for the new sewer? and oil you
men voted for 1t.
Mr.. O'Kane-WolI, why didn't YOU
do it. before then; in May or June?
MIR. Park-.We had too much foresight
and discretion; We knew something
would turn upaud it would be needed.
Mr.. O'kane-Now, don't eQuiyocate
say aye or no.
Mr.. rArk-Aye or no.

Such bouts MS tbat wire common, and
whenever Il question irrelevant 10 the
particular point which the committee
WIS appointed 10 inycs i9a!e was asked,
no satislac.. on was obtained.
1t waH found, however, that only one
irregular thing had been done by the
Board. Mr.. liObrecht admitted that all
the stories he had told outside about Il
man named Stecn Offering 10 pay 800
for the Seventeenth street bridge were
improperly stated. Stecn made such an
oller, but it was only verbal, and wpa
made to R16rccht, but RobFecht did not
make 1t known to the Board. The
Board advertised for bids for removing
the bridge, and gave It to the only bid.
der, at $500. They advertised and sold
the old iron at auction, ct n price better
than the market price.
Concerning a pavement inspector at
s. u day it VAS proven that he only gets
s., and is hited.by the day to inspect oil
work done for the Board.
Concerning a number OF paving and
sewer jobs, which Mr.. O'ksne asked
about in u tone thAt insinualed that they
had been done for tha benefit OF the
members OF the Board, il was found that
they had been ordered by previous
boards.
The only irregular Thing found was
with regard to the money received from
the Seventeenth street bridge, and it was
only technical. The Board, instead OF
turning the receipts over to Receiver
Woeber and checking it out to the con.
tractor. turned It oyer 10 him direGt.
