MRS. j. G. BLAINE, JR.. DIVORCED.
She Gets the Custody of the Child of the
III-Starred Union.

uI-Starred 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 1886, Miss Mary
Nevins, one of the handsomest girls OF
Pittsburg, Pa, went to Bar Harbor, Me-,
for the season. The Blaines have cot
tage at that resort and young James was
soon slave to Miss Nevins' charms.
After brief courtship, the seashore
lovers were married in New York city III
| 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 nus
band took his bride to Pittsburg, and
with his salary as reporter, and an al
lowance from his father, he managed to
keep up a comfortable home. The young
man is possessed of rowing disposition
and he soon took his wife to New York
city. He was reporter there, but Ills
father stopped his allowance. Then he
went into a 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,
Me, and for while lived at home. The
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 TO
$500 alimony and $500 counsel fees. Flo
long time the husband pleaded povert.
: and said he was unable to pay the money
At last check was sent to her, it is said
bv Secretary Blaine himself.
