A SENSATIONAL AFFAIR.
Strange Actions Regarding the
johnson Divorce Case.


About two years ago Mrs. Mar
garet johnson filed a suit in the
district court asking that she be
freed from her husband, f. B.
Johnson. The trial was had and
Mrs. johnson lost the case. She
gave notice of appeal and the case
is still pending in the court of
appeals.
On the 10Th of this month a
blank suit was filed, No. 5000, the
attorney being f. b. Johnson. An
investigation was made at once by
LIGHT man, and it has been
learned that the case is styled +.
b. Johnson VS.. Margaret Johnson,
for divorce. AS the matter now
stands, both husband and wife
have divorce suits pending.
Julia Elizabeth Stretch is the
sister of Mrs. f. b. Johnson, and she
is friendly with her brother-in-law,
as is evident, Judging from the
following strange story:
1t seems that several days ago
marriage license was issued to 5.
A. Thomas and Julia Elizabeth
Stretch. f. b. Johnson called on
the Rev. f. f. King and engaged
his services to perform the mar
riage ceremony. The preacher did
as requested and called at Johnson's
office in the Mackey building,
where, in the presence of Attorney
UNl, hA wv nrtin
were united in marriage. AS soon
as Rev. King had uttered the
solemn words, Johnson stepped up
to him and requested him not to
make a return of the marriage IL
cense until the GO days had expired,
this being the time required by
law for the returning of certiti-
cate. Why Mr.. Johnson requested
this could not be learned. He did
not give his reasons to the minis
ter, and refused to inform report
er this morning, saying it was
"nOne of your business" The new
~ married couple left, and are still
out Of the city.
When a LIGHT reporter called on
Mr.. johnson this morning he ques-
toned him regarding the whole
affair and all that could be ascer-
tanned is as follows:
Il don't care to make the matter
public" said Johnson, Gas it is
rather hard on us. The facts will
develop later in court. | don't
know you, and therefore refuse to
give you any facts about the
trOuble.N

savages Capture a Train.

CHICAGO, April PA train load
of Zulus, bound for the Worlds
fair, gave the railway crew and
squad of Chicago police a lively
experience this morning. The first
heard of the affair was when PO-
lice Lieutenant Creighton received
a telegram saying that two hum
dred savages had captured an in
bound train near the Grand cross
ing and had imprisoned the train
men. \ wagon load of blue
coat Is met the train at SiXty-tirst
street. They fOundCOnductOr Brown
and his brakeman imprisoned in
the baggage car, while two hum
dred Iulus had possession of the
train. The savages claimed that
one of their number had lost some
property, and they were holding
the conductor responsible. Lieut..
Creighton, after much excited
paIaver, quieted the Zulus and re-
leased the imprisoned railroad emf
plOyes. The Zulus were then
quickly transferred to the fair
grounds.

DEAR BROTHERS Now has come

from the other half of the race ;
now is the time take the Grape from

liberty and union. Liberty and
union, indeed The very word Glib

American women. Liberty, your
skirts are defiled, your mantle drag
ged in the dust. Our Wanted lib
erty, continually prated before the
people, is but feeting shadow.
You tell me | am free. Yes |
am free to suffer the penalty of the
law to its fullest extent, if | happen
to violate one you have seen fit to
make, but am not free to hell make
them. And why not F? Is God a
respecter of persons, or sex, that
He created one with a greater de-
gree of intelligence than another !?
God forbid! God be truth and ev-
cry man lie !
am, for instance, educated at
the same school as you are, graduate
at the same college; the cost just
the same-no difference when it
comes TO cash in hand. If | own
property, my taxes are regulated by
value of the same, and | am COM
PEELED to pay just the same as you
are. But perhaps you think | AIN
not capable of making corner n
the grain market, or so manipulating
the provision market as to enhance
the value of the necessaries of life
so as to make more money for the
rich, and make it so much harder
for the poor laboring man. Well,
let me whisper something in your
ear: | shouldn't want to. This big
heart of mine is big enough and full
enough of love-the true love-to
want to see you all prosper, and !

and was never, for once, jostled or
in any degree insulted, and have
become to think of my brothers in
this place as men Of honor and in
tegrity.
Verify, may every woman's heart
swell with joyful antcipations as
she considers this signal proof that
at last even portion Of the ruling
sex are willing to sayro her, "Well
done, good and faithful servant
Thou hast been faithful over few
things; | will make thee ruler over
many; for, while woman was de-
MED the ballot, every word she ut
tered in the cause of liberty aud
morality suffered depreciation in
popular esteem, similar to coin de-
llbrately debased by the govern

state in our Union will become so
on fire with the love Of freedom that
there will not be one left to tell the
story of one-half the race being in
bondage to the other half for 10 !
these many years.
AS | write, seem to see new
nation rise before me, wherein
dweleth peace and harmony, and
the trees and grasses look grcener,

DON'T WORRY.

There are times and seasons in every life
Not excepting favored few,
When not to worry over the strife
Is the hardest thing to do;
When all things seem SO dark and drear
We fear that they may darker be;
Forgetting to trust and not to fear,
Though we cannot the future see.
: Each life has it's good to be thankful for;
We must trust-we may always find
Some happiness surely, less or more
Some peace for troubled mind.
Let us try the good in our minds to fit
Passing over the ills in hurry,
For when we really think of it,
What good ever comes from worry ?
We must bear our trials cheerfully;
Not burden our world with sorrow
Because we are anxious and fearfully
Are looking for trouble to borrow.
Look into the future with hopeful heart
Keep watch for the silver lining,
And the cloud of trouble will surely part;
If we trust, instead Of repining.

OBITUAR Y.

Death of John Hadley at the Hospital
Yesterday Afternoon-The Result of
Runaway.
John Hadley of No. 81 Townsend avenue
died at the hospital yesterday afternoon,
aged thirtyeight years. Three weeks ago
yesterday he, with three other men, were
thrown or jumped out of team while on
their way to work. He was employed by
Mr.. Bostwick, the contractor, who is
building house on North Quinnipiac
street. When they were on their way to
work, and within short distance from
their destination, the horse took fright and
the driver lost all control of him. Hadley
staid in the team until he saw he would
be thrown out, and then jumped. In doing
SO he broke his right leg just above the
ankle, and also hit his back and head. DR..
Russell was called and set the bones. Mr..
Hadley got along nicely until week ago
last Sunday, when it was evident that he
was otherwise ailing, and seriously so.
From that time until last Saturday he
grew continually worse, being some Of the
time in deep stupor. Last Saturday,
under DR.. Russelps order, he was removed
to the hospital, where he has been in this
comatose state most of the time since,
When he jumped from the wagon he un-
doubtedly hurt himself internally, and
that affected his brain. Mr.. Hadley leaves
wife and three children to mourn his loss.
