"See that couple over there2"
The above remark was made by gentle
man to his companion, as they were lunch
ing together in the cafe of o well-known
hotel, and referred to neatly dressed young
man and woman seated at one of the tables.
"They are man and wife," the speaker
continued, land l will tell you romance
about those two people that you will hardly
believe. but is as true as gospel.
"Ihey were married five years ago, and
lived together very happily until recently.
The husband was in business for himself,
and was quite successful merchant. He
was often obliged to remain at his store late
at night. His vile did not like to have him
away from home so much, and worried over
the matter until she finally became sus-
picious of her husband.
"When brought to task by his late hours
the husband always reasoned with his pretty
young wife. and assured her that he was
true to her.
1.-The wife, however, refused to be recon-
ciled to his being away from home SO late
and so often, and things kept growing
worse and worse, until finally the husband
imagined that his wife was insane.
"One day about four weeks ago, doctor
called on the woman to ascertain her men,

was no need of his services.
THE wife WAS considerably alarmed over
the doctors visit. and thought she discov
cred plan concocted by her husband to get
rid of her That night she fed, with her two
little children. to her fathers home for pro-
lection.
Backed by her father she at once
brought suit against her husband for sepa-
rate support and maintenance. The story
go: into the papers, and both husband and
wife, when interviewed, charged each other
with all sorts of infidelity.
IAN attachment was placed on the hus-
bands store and he was finally compelled 10
go out of business.

day you see the husband and wife lunclling

Noble was a small boy. bright aud am
bilious then as now, and wanted to run
things after his own way Of thinking. He
was known around the hotel as Little
Jack, the cake boy He got that name
from the fact that he was the boy who
brought the hot buckwheat and corn cakes
from the kitchen to the dining-room for the
guests. The Dennison was noted in those
DAYS for its hot cakes. There are but few
of us left who have not pulled in our gang

and the good times we had in the winter

GERTRUDE MORGAN'S ROMANCE

Abandoned When a Baby, Unknown Per-
sons Now Send Her Gifts.
Miss Gertrude Morgan is a lovely eight
esn-year-old Chicago girl, about whom is
gathered a strange mystery of abandon

restoration by her father. The mystery be-

May s, 1873, according to the Chicago Tri-
bune, when there WAS general rejoicing
at the rebuilding Of the hotel after the
great fire. Among the first guests registered
were g man and wife named Myers, and
that night girl baby was born to them.
1t was good omen, thought the proprie-
tors. Much do was made about it, and
the child was christened May Briggs. Ten
days later the nurse returned from a walk
to find the parents and their baggage gone
snd the babe asleep with this note pinned
10 its clothing: Little baby not wanted
please take care Of her." No trace of the
.fugitiyes Vas ever found. That night a
girl was born to a Mrs. Morgan and lived
but an hour. The waif was substituted.
and not till she had entirely recovered, two
months Later, did Mrs. Morgan learn that
this was not her own child.
At the age of Is months the cnlid took
first prize at baby show, and Mrs. Morgan
was amazed by an offer from strange gen
tIeman OF $4,000 for the baby. a few
months later some clothing was leIt LOT III
