His Happiness Short-Lived and Now He
Rests in Pauper's Grave.
A letter received at Ripon, Wis, from
Chicago states that Charles Forbes had died
in the Cook County Hospital and that his
remains would be buried in the potter's
field. Beyond his name nothing was known
in Chicago Of the dead mans identity, save
that card showed that he had once been in
Ripon. Colonel Forbes had been well
known in theatrical circles for a quarter OF
century. He managed a score of attractions
at various times, and his face was known to
every theater manager in the country. For
long time his fortunes ebbed, and six
months ago he found himself in position
where he must instantly make a n-strike
or find himself sWamped. He accordingly
inserted an advertisement in matrimonial
Journal describing himself as middle aged
gentleman of good appearance but light
purse who desired to marry woman of
means. The advertisement caught the eye
of Mrs Z. l.. Runals of RipOn, whose hus-
band had died few months previous, leav-
ing her fortune of $500 coo or $500, 000 She
wrote to Colonel Forbes, and her description
of herself seemed to have struck
the ColonePs fancy. He came to Ri
widow. secured the services of President
Merritt of Ripon College to perform the
marriage ceremony and they were married.
The breyty of the courtship and the short
ness OF the Col0nePs acquaintance with the
woman of his choice is shown by the fact
that when DR.. Merritt asked the name of
the bride TO place it in the marriage certih-
cate the Colonel could not remember the
ladys first name. Immediately after the
marriage ceremony Colonel Forbes and
bride left for St. Paul and Minneapolis on
a wedding trip. Their love did not survive
the trip. They had not been married ten
days when the honeymoon was obscured by
a cloud, the nature of which is not known.
They parted, Colonel Forbes going to Chi
cago, and his wife remaining here in the
handsome mansion bequeathed to her by
her first husband. Nothing was heard of
Forbes until day or two ago, when a tele-
gram reported that he had been found on
the street unconscious and penniless, and
had been sent to the County Hospital. Next
came the news of his death. His wife re-
fused to assist him. and lie died attended
only by the hospital nurses. Mrs. Forbes is
rich, but she refuses to bear the expenses
of the burial, and the remains we're inferred
in the Almshouse burial plat.-St. Louis
