chair and, turning 70 the court, said:
.-Jedge. I'm the person what's bin

lone woman, with nary man ter provide
fer me. an I've been er thinkin ther best
way out o this yer biznis Is fer tins man
what kilt my man ter git me e. new
one" She stopped amid a deathlike 81
lence. Velvet was the only man that
preserved his customary unrufied com
posurs. Every other face wore an ex-
preston Of h0rrifed astOnishment for q
moment, AAd then 4 yell OF delight went
Cd from the crowd. The cool efrontery
Of the woman had caught their sense Of
the fitness Of things. Here. in a country
where q woman most needed mans
protection, her man had been taken from
her. What more just than that the man
who had caused his taking of should re-
place hiIni The racket subsiding, the
court grsvely arose and said:
"Pris'ner Ct the bar, yer bey bin tried
q foun guilty Of murder. Hev yer any
thin ter say why ther sentence IN this
yer cote should not be past pom YER
Velvet shook his head smilingly and the
court continued: "Ther sentence Of ther
cote is thet yer shall marry this yer
woman, n the cote, ez a jestice, viii tie
yer up night now" at this there was a
ven that fairly shook the roof, and the
| audience rushed inside the bar to shake
hands with the prospective bride and
groom and offer congratulations, but the
bride had something else to say first.
"Jedge," she shrilled, ''rve bin tell'd
fhet Mud wind a consid'ble ct gamblin

The coin and dust had been impound-
ed by the court, and he reluctantly
turned 1t over TO the widow. After
looking it over she slowed IT away in a
voluminOus pocket, and announced her
readiness for the ceremony. The coun-
sci for the prosecution and defense acted
as groomsmen, a couple Of "ladies'
from the 'hurdy gurdy" next door as
bridesmaids, and the foreman Of the
jury gave away the bride.
Surely such another wedding was
never seen. The festivities lasted until
the fiddler was completely exhausted,
and when a couple Of days later the Flat
recovered from its carouse, Velvet and
his wife had disappeared
A few DAYS later a tail, swaggerng,
black mustached man, accompanied by
q woman dressed in rusty black, with an
/ immense sunbOnnet covering her head
and face, stood on the deck Of q Panama
steamer making It's way down San Fran
cisco bay toward the Gate. They were
at the rail gazing at the fast receding
city. Suddenly the man snatched the
sunbonnet from the woman's head and
whirled it overheard, and as it hoated
astern said:
"Goodby to the Widow Mud, and now,
old girl, we can be comfortable again.

The. Brazilian Minister Is His
Object Of Hatred.
Senor De Cotehlo Charges That the
Minister Is the Cause of His
Persecution by Woman.
He Must Answer.

NEW YORK. April s. Colonel Hilario
De Cotehlo. editor of a Spanish -Ameri.
can publication, VINO gained celebrity as
an opponent of Dom Pedro, has chal-
lenged the envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary from the Bra
lillian republic TO duel.
Senior De Cotehlo, who has an Office
in Temple Court, when seen was most
indignant at his treatment at the hands
of the minister, Senior Salvador De-
Mendonca. He alleged that the Bra-
lillian minister has treated him most
shamefully.
rWhen I came back from Paris, he
said. II bought house in Fordham,
and rented it to Mrs Florence Jones
who lived there long time without
paying me any rent. She wrote me
many tender letters, but would not pay
her rent. One day she came to my OF
fee and demanded her letters She had
a key to my apartments on Murray
Hill, and when | demanded its return
she refused to surrender it until she got
possession of her correspondence. l
subsequently sent her the love letters III
question on April Z. went to her house
on West Twenty fifth street and asked
for my key.
I was not given the key. but was
abused by both her and her mother,
who was present. To avoid a scene
left. The entire matter is one Of black
mail, behind which the Brazilian minis
ter is. While cannot fight woman
can fight him. He called me negro.
