MRS. J. C. BLAINE, JR.. DIVORCED

MRS. J. G. BLAINE, JR.. DIVORCED.
She Gets the Custody ofthe Child of the
nI-Starrsd UniOn.
The supreme court of South Dakota, in
session at Sioux Falls, has granted an alb
solute divorce to Mary Nevins Blaine
from James G. Blaine, Jr., the youngest
son of Secretary Blaine. The case was
allowed to go by default. Mrs. Blaine is
allowed alimony and the custody of her
child.
The case is one that has attracted much
popular interest.
In the summer of 1885, Miss Mary
Nevins, one of the handsomest girls OF
Pittsburg, Pa, went to Bar Harbor. Me-,
for the season. The Blaines have a cot
Cage at that resort and young james was
Eoon a slave to Miss Nevins' charms.
After a brief courtship, the seashord
lovers were married in New York city in
September, 1886.
1t was generally known that Secretary
Of State James G. Blaine and Mrs. Blaine
were much opposed to their sons mar
riage. However, the newly-made hu I.
band took his bride to Pittsburg, and
with his salary as reporter, and an al
IOwance from his father, he managed ia
keep up a comfortable home. The young
man is possessed of a rowing disposition
and he soon took his wife to New York
city. He was a reporter there, but his
father stopped his allowance. Then hG
went into brokers' Office, and shortly
afterward his parents got control OF him.
In 1888 the couple separated, and Mrs.
James g. Blaine, Jr., charged her hus
bands family with having induced him
TO desert her. He had gone to Augusta,
Ne and for while lived at home. Thu
wife followed and says she tried to in,
duce him to return to her, but to no pur
pose. The Blaines were eager to get hold
Of the child, but they failed to do SO
Young Blaine said his people would will
ingly care for it.
Then the wife began her divorce pro.
ceedings. The first step was to ask fol
$500 alimony and $500 counsel fees. Fol
long time the husband pleaded poverty
and said he was unable to pay the money.
AT last check was sent to her, it is said,
by Secretary Blaine himself.
The wife having had no means of sup
port, as she claims, prepared to go on the
stage. She studied for some time and
then was attacked with inflammatory
rheumatism which checked her theatrical
career for awhile She afterwards ap
peared before the footlights, but with nc
great success.
