MRS. HERBERT'S REVENGE.
An Interesting Sequel to Recent Divorc
Case.

An Interesting Sequel to Recent Divorce
Case.
New York furnishes a sequel to d divorce
scandal which began in San Francisco and
which involved some persons well known in
Washington. In April the San Francisco news
papers reported the beginning of suit for
divorce by Lieut.. VIM G. Herbert, U. 8. n,
against his wife Grace, mentioning David
Towers. the theatrical manager, as a CO.
respondent. Recently q card was published in
this city by Mr.. Towers denying that he was
implicated in the divorce proceedings pub
ication in New York in which Mr.. Towers
name was connected with that Of another
woman, according to the New York Sun today,
brought a woman who said she was Mrs.
Herbert to Howe Il Hummel's Office
yesterday. She said her purpose was to get
square with Towers, and she took a singular
way to do it. She thereupon gave out for
publication a number of letters signed ''Dave."
and which she asserted were from Dave Towers.
The immediate cause for her act was a letter
she had received. which she asserted was from
Mrs. Towers, indicating that Towers had got
out Of the divorce case and left her to her fate.
Tho letters she gave out. asserting that they
were written by Towers, and which were pub
hshed by the New York Sun today, were all of
a most ardent character.

Brooks Sigh, young man residing at the
Rochester House, 18th and G streets north
west. on a warrant sworn out this morning by
Emily j. Brazier, charging him with perjury,
in having, on the 22d of last April, falsely
sworn that two trunks and contents of the
value Of $3.50 had been stolen, taken and carried
away out of his possession, and that he had
probable cause to suspect, and did suspect,
that the said trunks and contents were
concealed in the house 1914 or 10l7
18th street northwest. in the possession
Of the said Emily j. BrazIer. The trouble
is said to have arisen out Of the fact that the

Sigh, it being denied that she had ever wrong
fully taken possession or held the trunks. The
young man, well-dressed and intelligent ap-
pearing person, was held at the first precinct

pearance in the Police Court.

Acting Secretary Sims of the Interior De-
partment has declined to modify the award
heretofore made of contracts for furnishing
blankets to the Indian service. John Dobson
of Philadelphia, one of the bidders. protested
against the award and claimed that his blanket
is the best one for the price. He suggested the
appointment OF board of three disinterested
persons to pass upon the merits OF the different
blankets, but Secretary Sims declines to accept
the suggestion upon the ground that he is sat
isfied from the evidence before him that the
award is right and further delay in settling the
matter would probably prolong the time of
delivery Of the blankets until it : En-" late to
use them.
