How a waynesburg Girl Gave Mr. Downe,
the Slip.

How a Waynesburg Girl Gave Mr.. Downey
the Slip.
R. F. Downey, of Waynesburg is good
natured lawyer. but he was outwitted yester-
day, not from lack of shrewdness or ON account
of negligence, but because of his confiding
and trusting nature. He came to Pittsburg
with an aged citizen from Greene county as
his attorney in search of his daughter, who had
eloped with horse jockey. In company with
several policemen they located the pair at the
Keystone Hotel, and soon had the girl in their
possession. She was taken to the Monongahela
House and left in one of the parlors. Mr..
Downey then went out with the father to pre-
pare the legal papers for the arrest of the
jockey, leaving the girl alone, but with the
policemen on the watch.
The maiden thereupon skipped through
side entrance, and when Mr.. Downey came
back she was gone. He thought it was good
Meanwhile the jockey can rest easy until the
girl can be found.

A Sanitary Invention

That is creating great interest in the export
trade is the Hartman flexible wire mats dis
played in Machinery Hall Of the Exposi-

high sanitary conditions than in the newer
countries. Over 80 per cent of the wire mats
in use to-day are Hartman mats.
The steel picket fence manufactured by
this company has also become famous, and
goes to all parts of the earth, shipment
last week being made to China and another
the same day to British Columbia
These two inventions are scarcely two
years old. but their success is phenomenal.
The handsome 4O-page catalogue issued
by the company will repay anyone for read
ing il.

The Peculiar Case Of Mrs. AnnIce C.
Barteau of ST. Paul.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, December "a. = Two
years ago Mrs. Annice G. Barteau was hap
PLY married and had 100000 in her own
right. Today she is divorced against her
will and made penniless by decree of the
Supreme Court of Minnesota,
The case is full of romance from beginning
to end. Six or eight years ago she came to
st. Paul from Appleton, Wis, and was mar
ried to William g. Barteau. With $4,000 tue
latter went into business in st. Paul and
failed. The wife sold her Touring mill at
Appleton and placed the $4,000 it brought in
the hands of her husband for investment He
bought st. Paul real estate, and by half a
dezen lucky turns nade over 100000. Three
years ago Mrs Barteau went to Europe, and
was startled one day on her travels to get a
letter from st. Paul stating that her husband
had secured a divorce and married Miss Mary
Bailey, handsome society girl of eighteen
Returning to st. Paul in great haste, she
brought suit against her faithless llege lord
and Miss Bailey, to whom all her property
had been decided, on the charge Of conspiracy.
At the trial the conspiracy was proved, but
legal documents bearing the signature of the
lawyer to whom she had given a power of
attorney were produced in which the real
estate was shown to have been transferred
by due process of law. The District Court
found In Mrs. Barteau's favor, but the Su-
prrme Court tOdap revoked the lower courts
decision and ordered the return of the real
estate 10 Miss Bailey (Mrs. Barteau No. 2)
The Supreme Court does not deny that
Barteau, Miss Bailey, and Mrs. Barteau's
lawyer were in c0nnivance to swinde her
out Of her property and her husband, but af-
firms that the fact being admitted that a Ger
tain lawyer was given the power of attorney

transact it, the court cannot go behi d the
