SEQUEL OF A DIVORCE.
Elizabeth Lille Is Committed to
the ASVIum

Some few years ago Elizabeth Lille,
who now lives at 1916 Fifth avenue
south, was separated from her husband
by divorce proceedings. After that af-
fair her friends noticed that she was
bro0ding over the affair, but thought
that time would heal the wound. Later
on she became afflicted with Ills peculiar
to her sex, and she grew worse men
tally. Tuesday she escaped from
her nurses watchful eye, went to
neighboring drug store and purchased
small quantity of chloroform, which she
took with her to the house and swal-
lowed shortly after she had arrived
there.
Fortunately DR.. Leonard was sum-
moned soon enough to save the woman's
life, but she remained i'll from the eff
fects of it. Her friends feared repeti-
ton of the act ana thought it better to
have her mental condition examined
into. Judge COrrigan went out to the
house yesterday, as she was too i'll TO be
moved, and after all examination the at
tending physicians pronounced it case
of mental alteration, brought on by mel
ancholla, and the judge ordered her
committed to the asylum.

$50, I'll bet that amount that | can tell
what Will become of the resolution.
Bet enough to make it an object, and
Fll go you. l don't object to max
ing $50"
Nobody said a word.
Mr.. Potter himself is decidedly reti-
cent about the matter. He says the
question is close one now, inasmuch
as the resolution conforms so nearly
with the advertisement and the specifi-
cations. Aid. Potter has until Friday
to return the resolution. If he does not
veto it by that time it will become op-
erative- 1t is generally believed. how
ever, that he agrees with Mayor Win
ston, and thinks the council should re-
advertise for artificial curb. But Pot
ter disclaims any intention of allowing
personal prejudice to sway him in the
matter. 1t is said that he has declared
his intention to sign if satisfied that the
resolution was passed in legal form. He
has been satisfied that it was. There
tore it is generally believed that he will
sign.

ADJUSTMENTS.

After the matinee to-day of "The
Mascotte," as presented by the Wilbur
Opera company at the Lyceum tbeater,
all ladies will be invited upon the stage
to inspect the great mass of costly
dresses Miss KlrWin wears in the many
Wilbur operas, and her pretty dressing
room. The MascOtte" runs all the
week.
There will be only four more per-
formanceS Of The Crystal Slipper in
Minneapolis. and Saturday evening will
be the last time theater-goelS here will
have an opportunity to sec this brilliant
and most elaborate spectacular version
of the dear old nursery story of Gin
derela.
The scenery used by the Hanl0ns in
their spectacular production, which
comes to the Grand Monday. is not all
imaginary by any means. The chasm
of the charmed rocks in "Superba," for
instance, is {. reproduction of nature. as
one who has gone through the Garden
of the Gods, near Manitou, Col, will
readily see. The scene is ideal, but IN
producing it the Hanl0ns sought nat
ure, and found it in the wonderful spot
named in Colorado. After finding it
they took their artists to the garden.
and the immense drops picturing the
scenes are from their sketches, as made
on the spot. They appear as the ideal.
but the fact that they are from spot
which has attracted thousands of tour
lists adds greatly to the public interest
in them.
There was another packed house at
the Pence last night to see that greatest
novelty. Sam Jacks Creoles, and they
laughed and applauded heartily. This
is most pleasing and very neat show
Next Monday, for the week comes
Sheridan & Flynn's Vaudeville compa-
ny. These gentlemen are the authors
of Down Went McGinty" They Will
also introduce their latest success.

Maggott. He very much needs the as
Sistance of the governor of ST. Helena,
so much so that he requests that dig
nitary TO come to the United States by
the first ship, even if he has to hold the
ship few hours. John also requests
that the governor bring with him one of
his judges or magistrates. On this point
the aforesaid John Henry James is par
ticularly persistent. Then he relates
the circumstances of Maggott's death.
Charles Maggott, James says, died
f,orty-two, or forty-three years ago
James did not hear of it until tire.
years ago. Maggott was killed at See
tie, Wash, by Henry Alesw0rth an
three other men. They seized all Mag
gott'S property. James says be put the
case into the hands of the lawyers, and
they cenfscated all the property. 1t
consisted of coal mines, gold mines,
river boats and fixed property" what
ever that is The gold mines have
been opened and gold stolen therefrom.
That gold was made into money by the
United States government. James says
he put this matter of gold stealing into
the hands of the British minister, but
that official Is slow to act upon it.
Il am anxious to have you come over
here and settle this" says James in the
letter. Il know how much my home,
st. Helena, needs money. AS soon
as | get this money money, [ will settle
the British government. | now own
twenty-three railroads, steamboats, and
fixed property. Don't forget to bring a
judge or magistrate with you"
James letter to the governor con-
cIudes with few commissions for the
payment of several small legacles.
Several answers have been received
to the letters written by this John
Henry James apprising his friends of
his accession to an immense fortune.
One came to the superintendent of po-
lice opened. 1t IS from henry A. Chap
man. of Demarara, British Guiana. in
South America. From that letter 1t is
learned that John Henry James trne
name is John Henry. His nephew can
not understand the addition of James.
The nephew evidently takes James let
ter announcing his good fortune as
strictly true. He cOngratulates his
uncle on his success and luck. and
seems particularly we'll pleased by his
uncle's promise to do something hand
some for him. He requests an imme
date remittance of 5000 or $500, adding
that he needs the money. There are
half dozen other letters waiting for
John Henry James. All come from
II NlIlCo, dliNl III
of Wyman, Partridge 4 Co.
James has not been seen for several
days. His last public appearance was
on the occasion of his visit to the office
of a prominent lawyer in the Guaranty
Loan building. TO the lawyer he con
tided that his cousin and a friend were
stopping at Fishers hotel, on Bridge
square. He wanted to take the lawyer
down there and introduce him to his
cousin. As further inducement. he
promised to present the attorney to
Grover Cleveland and James q. Blame,
who. he declared, were also stopping at
Fishers hotel.
But what are they stopping down
there for?" said the lawyer.
That's it! That's it'' replied James.
They're out for a high old time"
John Henry James will be locked up
and consigned to an insane asylum.

Full dress suits and fraternity pins
were everywhere. "reminiscences of
college life abounded. Many old school
mates met there after years of separa

of the fraternity looked POM

the two cities were of the gathering.
The first session of the council was held
