THE COHN CASE.
THE CONTESTANT MAKING
STRONG SHOWING.
A Lot of People Who Testified as to
Cohn anc Delphina's Relationship
Evidence Given Yesterday.

The good people of this city who sup
posed the late Bernard Cohn and the
beautiful Delphina Cohn, or Varelas,
husband and wife, appear to be mex
haustible in numbers, and they are
going on the witness stand in depart-
ment two from day to day and giving
testimony that strongly supports her
claims to share in the estate for herself
and children.
Counsel for the other side claim to be
able to disprove the marriage by con-
tract, but 80 far there has not been a
word of testimony upon which they can
base their claim, and the direct evidence
introduced by the contestant has with
stood all efforts to beat it down on cross
examination.
The evidence introduced yesterday was
substantially the same as given hereto
fore. Among the witnesses for the con-
testant was General Bouton, who re-
sided near the house occupied by Cohn
and Delphina. He always supposed they
were married.
Charles Schroeder saw Cohn at the
house on Buena Vista street. He alway
heard the contestant spoken of as Del
phina.
Mrs. Josefa Sepulveda was the best
witness of the day. She resided on San
sevain street, near Cohn's house, in
1886. When Miguel, the second child OF
the couple, was taken sick she went to
the house. Cohn was there and sat up
all night with the child. He called Del
phiDa "mama." Miguel was suffering
from an attack of scarlet fever, and they
thought he would die. At one time,
when they thought death was near,
Cohn led Delphina into another room,
saying, Il don't want her to stay and
see our boy die." Miguel finally recov-
cred. Witness always heard the chill
dren call Cohn papa" "
Mrs. Sepulveda was at the house one
night after the suit between Cohn and
Pico was settled. The conversation
turned on the suit and witness said she
was sorry for Pico; that he had nothing.
She said to Cohn: ''Now Bernard,
you're rich and you ought to give Pico
some of the property" e.
Cohn replied that Pico had money and
had no children. ''Look at my chill
dren," he said, "I've got these three
and three up on Main street,
Mrs. Sepulveda was on the witness
stand when court adjourned. The case
will be resumed at 10 O'Clock this
morning. fi

The third concert OF the Y. M. @. A.
course was held last evening under the
direction of Mrs. Emily Valentine, as
sisted by members OF the faculty of thai
ladies' school of music and art.
As a whole the programme was we'll
selected and acceptably rendered, and
the approval of the large audience was
attested by the numerous recalls. After
the concert the parlors of the Y. NJ. G.
A. were thrown open for inspection.
Mr.. Earl Valentine played two selec-
tions on the violin, giving evidence of
careful instruction and hard practice.
The recitations by Miss Helen Mar
Bennett and Miss Hoback were good.
While the acting OF Miss Bennett was
excellent, her style was little too
STACEY" Miss Hoback's George
Washington WAS excellently rendered.
Professor Arevalo and Master M. Car
rizosa contributed a guitar duet. which
was we'll executed, and for an encore
played La Paloma.
The efforts of Mrs. Jacob Horton to
render Rossini's Non Piu Mesta were
highly appreciated by the audience.
Mrs. Horizons voice has doubtless
received excellent training, but her
notes lack clearness.
Mrs. Valentine played two selections
on the piano. The lady executed some
difficult fngerings which displayed
varied technique.
Miss Sites and Mrs. Curtis in the
final selection, piano duet, q march
de concert, played we'll and in perfect
unison.
Rather an amusing feature of the
evening was the boy supposed to pre-
sent the flowers. He was always late
and would invariably rush up after the
artist had left the stage. The per-
former would have to return and make
her bow OF acknowledgement.
