DR.. Emil Schmidt professor of an

different types as, 1, narrow nosed, fair
skinned; 2, broad nosed, fair skinned
3, narrow nosed, dark skinned; 4, broad
nosed, dark skinned
The second type he is inclined TO con-
slider a mixed one, resulting from inter
mixture of the white Aryan and Dravid-

Mr.. MAINS DIVORCE.
He Got 1t Last Year, and Now His
Wife Wants 1t Cancelled.

Thomas Main of No. l, ,304 Garden street,
Hoboken, a mechanical engineer. was
married on August ls, 1880, in London,
England, to Miss Sarah Ann Knott. On
April Is. 1891. he obtained a decree OF alb
solute divorce, making John W. Locke of
Nyack, N. Y, correspondent
Three weeks after Main was married.
he brought his wife to this country, and
they went 10 Nyack to live On Novem-
ber 5, 1888. he left his wife and went TO
Chester, Pa. The reason, Mrs. Main
alleges was that Mains son was sued Tor
breach of promise in the Supreme Court
OF New York by Clarissa Dale, niece OF
Mrs. Main. The girl obtained Judgment
for $40. $50, and the case was appeaiea.
her husband said he would leave her II
she did not persuade her niece to with
draw the proceedings.
After living in various places Main
took mp his home in Hoboken November
49, 1888. In the petition upon which he
obtained the decree of divorce, he accused
his wife of having been intimate with
John w. Lock from May, 1881. until June,
1850, and averred that he only discovered
the intimacy in 1885.
Mrs. Main further averred that on May
G, 1884, Main returned to Nyack and
put her out of his house and put
another family into it. She
supported herself afterward by
keeping boarders. In June, 1889, she
left Nyack and went to Denver, Col. In
June, 1891, she was greatly surprised TO
receive decree of absolute divorce
through the mails. She had never been
served with any papers She at once
brought proceedings to oreopen the decree,
and today testimony in the new proceed
ings was taken before Vice Chancellor
Green.
In the first case, George Norris al
legged he had boarded with Mrs. Main in
July, 1886. He saw Locke leave Mrs.
Mains sleeping room at four O'Clock one
morning. He carried his shoes in his
hand Today Morris testified to the same
facts. but when asked to describe the
house he exhibited such gross ignorance
Of the location of rooms that he aroused
suspicion. Vice Chancsllor Green ques-
toned him closely, and the more questions
asked the more Morris floundered.
Mrs. Main denied, in her answer to the
petition, that he ever boarded with her
unless under an assumed name. Norris
Furthermore testified that he knew no one
in New York. and he never spoke TO any
one about Lock and Mrs. Main until four
years later, when Main found him and
questioned him. Norris lived until q
week ago at Waterbury, Conn. The case
was not finished.
