pronounced the nuptial benediction she re-
turned with her victim TO the hotel, but
al~a managed TO disappear before night,
never, however, leaving the wedding gifts
behind her.
her FIRST ARREST.
Eveline victimized thirty-two presumably
intelligent men in this way before she fell
into the hands Of the Paris polics in the
autumn of 1887. She was sent to jail for
two years, obtained an early release for
good conduct, resorted to her old tricks and
victimiZed ten lovers more without detec-
ton. The swindled ones were too much
ashamed to inform the police; but her
forty-third victim gave the police infor-
nation which led to EVeline's sec
ond arrest on Good Friday at the Hotel
Maurice, Rue Rivoli. Her dupe this time
was French viscount who had ruined him-
self through gambling, and was anxious to
regild his armorial bearings with the 1,2O0,-
OOO francs Of the charming widow. 1t
would even seem as IL he were really in
love with the adventures, for he
Journeyed with her and a companion Ia
certain Mrs. Csba), believed to hail from
Nav Orleans.
HER LAST VICTIM.
They Travelled in England, Belgium and
Norway, the viscount paying all expenses
by borrowing money right and left on bis
expectations. He made Eveline rich pros
ents wherever they went. At last back In
Paris, the visoount insisted upon having a
day fixed for the wedding, but to no avail
Miss Reynolds-that was the last name she
had assumed-was memorable. He must
wait. This fact awakened the suspicious
Of the viscount, who laid the case before
NJ. Goron, chief OF detectives. When the
officers presented themselves at the hotel
Maurice EveIine was greatly astoniShed,
but followed them bravely to the police
station. As for her companion. Mrs. Caba,
she was absent from the hotel when Eveline
was arrested, and has not been seen there
again. This time fair Eyeline will prob
ably get a sentence which will put her out
of harms way for many years.
HER ANTECEDENTs.
She is the child of well-to-do farmer in
Shropshire, the fertility Of whose acres
made it an easy matter to provide hand
somely for his family, composed of one
daughter and three sons.
Evellne, like many others in the same
position, being the pet Of the father and
brothers and fairly good looking, soon
learned to command, and grew up In the
belief that mankind was created to do her
homage and minister to her wishes.

that the iron bell hanger had pulled COM

diary it appears that a Mr.. Streeter was the
first confederate soldier killed In that bloody

The Marriage Trick" Played by an
Rnglishwoman.
Fron. the Philadelphfn Reoorl


From the Philadelphia Record.
PARIS, March ga woman who has
actually gone through the marriage service
with forty three men and swindled all but
one OF them within three hours after the
ceremony is the latest pro duct of the Paris
ian police. Six years ago Eveline Leal, a
handsome young English girl, married
Frenchman. who died within month of
the wedding, leaving her with no money
and plenty Of debts. To square" herself
known in police lingo as ''tle marriage
trick" Her method of procedure was sim
pie and ingenious. She advertised, stating
that widow possessing 100000 francs
wished to marry gentleman in good cir
cumstances, belonging 10 the mobility or to
the high commercial class.
Answers were to be sent to the postofflce.
Her accomplish, who occupied the position
OF companion, seems to have had the impor-
tant duty of choosing the victims from
among the applicants. AT any rate, the
sutton was never admitted into Eveliue's
presence unless his personal appearance was
in his favor, and then he was granted a
rendezvous either In a sumptuous apart
ment on the Champs Elysees or at one of
the best hotels.
DIFFERENT NAME FOR EACH sUIToR
Naturally Eveline took different name
for every occasion. For some suitors for
her hand and fortune she called herself
Nine Ferbank, Mime. Rappy, Mime. Dec
omay and Nine. Burnelly. She always
began by making some objection to an i'm
mediate marriage. Sometimes assuming
the character Of an ingenious miss, she said
her mother considered that she was too
young for marriage, aud that the applicant
must wait awhile. On other occasions the
fortune or social position Of the sutton was
not what she desired, but in the end she
always allowed herself to be captivated
with these personal qualities of the
would-be husbands. She often man
aged things so cleverly that she received
rich presents from her sultors, and after
getting as much as she could, suddenly dis
appeared. In several cases she considered
it better policy to secure possession of the
wedding gifts by agreeing to marriage
ceremony. For this she invariably crossed
the Channel, expressing a preference for
the wedding to take place in England.

KISSANE AGAIN.
The California Man With a Bad
Eastern Record.
An Attempt to Recover Five Thous-
and DOIIars-A Curious
Case.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8. The suit of Mrs.
Sallie Hart, against VIM. X. Rogers to re-
cover five thousand dollars for services
rendered by her deceased husband, Attor-
ney Jesse B. Hart, began before Judge
Finn yesterday. Rogers is the assumed
name of VIM. Kissane, who had been in
dicted in New York and Arkansas for var
ious crimes thirty-tive years ago. He was
convicted in New York City on one charge
of forgery, but influential friends secured
his release after few months imprison-
ment. Another charge of forgery was com
promised by the payment of twelve thou
sand dollars, but by some inadvertence
both indictments were never dismissed but
remained in full force. Kissane came to
California in the fifties changed his name,
took part in the Fraser river mining ex-
citement, accompanied Walkers expedi
tion-to Nicaragua and returned to settle in
Sonoma county where he married and has
acquired confiderable property. In 1887 he
began receiving anonymous letters which
disclosed the fact of his identity was known
and which gave him TO understand the in
dictments were still hanging over him.
During the trial yesterday Rogers stated
that he employed Hart to go east and se-
cure the withdrawal of the indictments.
Instead of so doing Hart gave the Califor-
MIA papers a clue by moving for the dis
mlssal OF the indictments in open court
For this reason Rogers claims he owes
nothing to Hart's estate. The case will go
on this week

LOCAL TIDE LAND APPRAISERS.
No Appropriation to Meet Their Ex-
nenSnS


The work Of the local tide land apprais-
ers will probably stop, because no appro-
priation was made by the legislature with
which to pay them. This work, it is esti-
mated, will cost more than $50, 900, and the
state auditor has received numerous vouch
ers for the work done. One appraiser has
received a certificate of indebtedness upon
vouchers, but no warrants can be drawn.
Three appraisers are appointed in each
county where tide lands exist, whose duty
it is to examine the shore and tide lands.
1t is the duty ofeach county board, with
in ninety days after organization, to ex-
anime, survey and appraise SO much of
shore and tide lands in their respective
counties as lie within and in front of the
corporate limits Of any incorporated city
or town, and within two miles thereof, on
either side, classifying and fixing the value
of each lot, block or tract, and noting the
improvements, for which service they will
receive IS per day and mileage at the rate
of 10 cents per mile and other expenses.
Until the work of the local appraisers is
complete, no tide lands can be bought or

of the jurors are compelled to leave their

will be sent by G. f. Seal to Chicago and

exhibition there. The rest will be sent by
Captain Barneson to Melbourne and Syd-
ney, Australia, for exhibition, to show the
people OF that distant island what America
can produce in the way Of large vegetables.
The farm from which these potatoes were
taken yielded 600 bushels to the acre
Only the larger potatoes will Be sent to
market. The small ones are kept at home
and used for food for cattle and hogs
What are called small potatoes out here
would be considered from average size to
large in the East. Here anything under a
pound is considered small. On the same
farms from which these giants were
brought were grown cabbages weighing 28
pounds each, and rutabagas parsnips and
carrots Of such immense size that they will
cause the people of the East to wonder
when they see them, and will have better
effect upon homeseekers and will do more
toward attracting them to this state than
