woh is now 9 years old. She has ruined
me, that woman, financially and other
wise. l forgave her once in Bismarck
for proving false, and here she is up to
her old tricks again. Sho was intimate
with a bank clerk named T. P. Heron,
who is now in Pittsburg, and [ found it
out, and like ID fool took her back
and forgave her.
The following, from the Evening
Tribune probably comes nearer being
the truth regarding the affair than any
other account:
Yesterday evening about tea time Mr..
Parker walked up to Mr.. Flannery's
office, he says, and saw his wife and the
lawyer in a condition that made him
have grave doubts as to Mr.. FIannery's
virtue. He tried to open the door and
did not. 1t was locked. Then he let
those inside and within a considerable
area outside know he had steel lined
lungs. He yelled. Such a yell. Attor-
ney Flannery was not obliged to open
his office door, but he did so voluntarily,
preferring that than another series of
Parker's yells.
MIR. Parker strobe into the office and
smote the lawyer. The lawyer smote
back and the lady was aggrieved. She
fled. The occupants of surrounding
offices hocked to the scene and gazed on
IN interrogative amazement. Parker and
Flannery pounded, pulled and annoyed
each other to no end.
While Mrs. Parker ran she roared and
called upon Jim not to harm him, Jim
is her husband. "Let him 60, Jim.
Don't, 1 say, DON'T" And so the confu-
sion became SO COMPOUNDED bad that the
noise of the tumult going on in the Sin
nards" of the Bank of Commerce build
ing overf1owed and the great wave of
noise sent out hit the ears of Officers
Butler and Riviere, who waded right in
to the vortex.
They swept up the elevator and found
the:greatest uproar that they had before
known. And Parker and Flannery
were still in it. Parker held Flanneey
so that he would not hurt himself. Elan.
merry did the same favor for Parker. Then
the officers held both men and they all
walked down in this style to "lock-up"
alley.
Here they tried to confuse Capt. Day.
He was too strong, however. He didsnot
issue warrants to either for the other as
ordered, but had them searched and
locked up. Their cells we're eight and
nine. The numbers are the same to-
day.
At 30 minutes before 8 o'clock last
night Judge Elliott was found. He had
not been lost and exactly the same num-
Der of minutes after 9 this morning he
entered the court room. Last evening
he let the two men out on bail. The
amount was $25, which they deposited
The crowd gathered in the court room
to see the pretty woman who caused At
torney Flannery's Office door to be locked
and Mr.. Parker to become violently
vicious. They did not see her in the
court room; she was absent. Mr.. Elan
merry walked in with his stovepipe hat on
his head before he took it off. He is
good looking, black hair, black eyebrows
and a very good moustache which would
be black too if he would pay a barber IS
cents to rub the red out Of it. Judge
Quinn sat there. His black silk hat
shone as CLASSY as the virgin bosom of a
lake unstirred by a zephyr when the
morning sun casts itself on the waters.
Judge Donahue, Attorney Jamison,
Assistant City Attorney Dunn with a
white straw hat tipped down on his left
ear, was also in the gathering, and all
greeted the hero, MIR. Flannery, royalty;
he laughed; they did the same, and then
he changed the subject, sat down and
commenced tapping the toe Of his boot
with his cane.
Sergt. Mullen had trouble with his
stomach and told the spectators to step
in. "Move up! There is plenty of seats.
Sit down here" There was no jam, no
crowd.
MIR. Parker sat down in a chair. He
was not administrative. He says he saw
his wife and Flannery in a peculiar po-
sition through the letter hole in the
door. He knew that she had been I'M
true before. Detective M. E. Doyle
heard Of this and leaned his head owlish-
ly n side and nearly bit a 'snipe" in
his mouth in two while he suggested that
the door be taken Off and brought down
to the court as evidence. This appeared
to have been heard.
Attorneys Flannery, Jamison and
Dunn at once emerged from Captain
Byrnes' room and stepped up to Judge
Elliott's throne, and there they talked.
The cases we're continued at once until
tomorrow. The charges were disorder
ly conduct. Then Flannery walked out
and put on his own hat. So did his
partner, Mr.. Cooke, and a few others.
The grist was ground, and about the
end of the chapter Messrs. Dunn and
Jamison stepped in and without any
great noise the case against Flannery
was dismissed. Parker pleaded guilty
and was fined 1925 and costs, which were
suspended.
Detective Doyle thinks he bursted the
bubble, as the letter hole is iron bound
and looks down, and the lounge could
not be seen through it, but he never saw
a gun that could shoot around a corner
or Parker's incisive eye.
To the Morning Tribune reporter Mr..
Flannery stated that the lady was not in
his office to exceed three minutes after
another client had left; that he had just
locked the door and asked her SWELL,
what is it now?" when the rap came at
the door, and that the curtains on his
doors were just the same as they had
been all day-one up and the other
