A BIRMINGHAM COUNTESS.

After a Checkered Career She Brings
 Suit for Breach Of Promise Against
 Wall Street Contractor.
 BIRMINGHAM, Aug. 17.-A few years ago Marie von Valische was living in this town, the daughter of a shoemaker, Jacob Won Valische. AS her German anoestors were once wealthy, she took the title Countess Won Valische. In 1887 she mar ried Wall street man, James Willard. In 1889, at a western hotel, they met Rich ard G. Platt, friend of Willard's, and Platt in the meantime had become 8 con- tractor and in building up the west side drive and the Western boulevard had made great deal of money. He took the divorced woman to flat which he had furnished. She made trip to Paris and from that oity her maid wrote to Plstt, telling of her mistress doings.
 Mrs. Willard returned to this city in 1891 and regained the affections of Platt, which. because of the maids tales, had in the flat and Plstt was as attentive as ever. She alleges that finally her beauty pslled on him and he looked about for means of getting rid of her. He sent her to Paris again in December 1892, and al- most immediately began to be deluged with cable dispatches and letters contain ing requests or demands for money. Finally she gent for all her belongings, saying she was engaged on the Paris American Figaro and would be obliged to entertain royalty. She wrote how she had been arrested for not paying hotel bills and had been befriended by Mrs. Alex ander.
 At length she returned to New York and when Platt refused to answer her love letters or meet her she went to Howe 6 Hummel and instituted suit for breach of promise. asking for $50,00O. Her lawyers say she has clear case while Platt says 1t is blackmail. The countess Is twenty-two and handsome; PIstt is thirty.

A Visit to Atlantic City.

TO the Edltor or the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Hearing and reading so much of the summer resort of Atlantic City, persuaded
 me to take few weeks sojourn to that
 beautiful place, and I can assure my
 readers that it has not been to my sorrow,
 as do not think there cen be another place or sea shore resort like it on the face
 of the globe. The life there would make
 any of the residents of New Haven open
 their eyes. There are about 250 houses on
 the edge of the board walk, this walk is
 four miles long and sixty feet wide, and is
 considered great promenade for both
 young and old. There are large number
 of bath houses, each accommodating about 400 bathers. Just imagine seeing 12,O0O
 bathers in the water at one time, such a
 sight would be worth travelling 6 much longer distance to behold. Then there are carousals, large revolving wheels, switch back railroads, pony carts and vendors of all kinds. They also have theatsr, situ- ated on the edge of the board walk, which runs along the ocean front, here the famous Gsiety Opera company is playing, this is the same company that plays in one of Keith's famous theaters in Philadelphia, commonly known as the Bijou, MT. Milton Aborn, the come dian, cannot be beat, and he should look for higher honors and should travel with one of the leading opera companies. On the upper end of the board walk there are still other attractions, which are monopo- lized almost entirely by excursionists.
 These are the one-dsy people who come from Philadelphia and the surrounding cities for few hours' recreation. There are also summer gardens where they have first class vaudeville performance going on all day and evening. Another sight we'll worth seeing is the famous iron pier, which extends 400 feet out into the ocean
 This is grand place to enjoy the cool ocean breeze, no matter how warm it may be. Here they have a fine band which plays all day; every evening they have 8 hop, which draws crowds of people. The floor Is one of the finest ever danced upon. This floor extends out 200 feet into the ocean. There are about 800 hotels and boarding houses, each accommodating about 50, 900 or 60, 900 visitors. There are also numerous concert and music halls. These places are all of the best kind and frequented by the best class of -peo- pie on Saturday and Sunday l evening. There could be seen between | 9, ,000 and 30, 900 people on the board walk | at one time. Now my dear readers If next | summer you contemplate taking week or | two rest would advise you to spend it at | Atlantic City, for I can assure you that I | do not regret the time spent there, and | am quite sure that you would enjoy 1t as ! have done. x.M.M.

THE ROUTINE AT NIANTIC.

1t Will Differ Radically from Pre-
 vious Years-No Brigade Dress Pa
 rade.
 The routine will differ materially in some respects from that of last year. Most of the work is done in the morning, and with the exception of half hours parade at o'clock the men will have nothing to do except again at 5:15on Wednesday and Thursday, when the brigade will be formed preparatory to the review on Governors day. That farcicsl psgeantry, the brigade dress parade, which caused 80 much suffering to the troops and which served no better purpose than to show off the brigade and staff officers, has been done away with this year. No drilling is done in the afternoon, but the officers will at tend schoel of instruction at the colonels quarters each day for an hour, beginning at 80, and the non-commissioned officers will meet at the battalion adjutant's quar- ters for instruction also. During the early part of the week each of the regiments, ii is now expected, will be required to go out on grand guard duty.-Bridgeporl Farmer

Ghe Preferred Creditors of Bunnell & Scranton Will Receive the Amounts
 

she Preferred Creditors of Bunnen d
 Scranton Will Receive the Amounts
 Due Them.
 The preferred creditors of Bunnell & Scranton have for some sine past been at loss to understand why they have not re- ceived the money due them from the estate, according to the decision of the supreme court rendered last June, by which they were entitled to recover pro rata according to their claims.
 Attorney Webb, of filling, Webb & Morehouss, who are counsel for number of creditors of the estate, when seen yes- terday and asked the reason of the delay in paying the claims, said:
 "Counsel for the creditors have found 1t a decided task to figure out just what their clients are entitled to under the rul- ing of the supreme court, and there has been some difference of opinion among the attorneys in the case regarding the ap- piication of the rule and for this reason there has been some delay. It would not have made any difference, however, as there is no court in session now, so judg ment could not be passed upon the claims if they were all ready. Judge Prentice, who wrote the opinion of the court, has offered to come here about the middle of September and hold special session of the court for the purpose of passing on claims. Then will be ready for his judgment then and after he has passed upon them the claimants will receive their money"
