In marrying Agernon Charles sartor-
is, the aristocratic Englishmsn, Miss
Nellie Grant, like most American girls,
thought she was doing great deal bet
ter than taking a sturdy home man with
much less reputed wealth, but more
brains and capacity for making for
tune. The result was repetition OF the
experience OF other women, who IND
husbands abroad. Aleernou proved a
very worthless creature, who made her
life burden, and finally to all practical
purposes abandoned her. The news OF
his death will therefore cause no sorrow
on this side of the water, but be receiv-
ed with satisfaction by those who feel
sympathy and interest in the daughter
of the gre t general who was twice chos-
en- president of the United States by
grateful people.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Dec IS, 1s93.-The
Farmer says that one Henry Bobson,. until
within week an inmate of the almshouse,
has come into the possession of hand
some fortune by the death of
his father in England. Dobson,
it is said had partially completed Uni

when he suddenly left for America.
He knocked about the United States until
two years ago he arrived in Bridge
port, broken in health and penniless.
A month ago he saw in an Enhlish paper an
announcement of his fathers death, and sent
letter of coincidence to a member of the
family. Through this letter he was traced
by the executor of his fathers es-
tate to which he is the sole heir.

Succeeded in Having Shonden and
Nina Thomas Indicted.

Nina Thomas Indicted.
In the Court of General Sessions today the
Sandau-Merritt-S -Shondell- Thomas case had
another airing. 1t was brought about
by the Indictment of William
for unlawfully living together at No. 818
Bloomfield street. Hoboken. The story of
these parties is familiar to the readers of
THE NEWS. When the case was called
today host of witnesses were
present. Mrs. Shondell testified to her mar
riage with her husband and his desertion.
Her son corroborated her testimony,
and dozen witnesses, including
Mrs. Sandau, testified that Shondell
and Nina Thomas lived together. Mrs. San
dau said that the rooms occupied by the
couple were hired from her by Nina Thomas,
who represented herself to be Shon-
dell's wife. They occupied the
but one bed in them. Since then Mrs. San
don had moved to New York She refused
to say whereabouts in that city.
The defence, as outlined by Counsellor
Samuel Besson, was that one year ago, in
Chicago, he obtained an absolute divorce from
his wife, and that on April % following
at Milwaukee, Wis, he was lawfully mar
ried to Nina Thomas according to the laws
of that State, and that he had not intended
to violate the law of this State by
living with wife No. 2. This young
woman is decidedly prepossessing. She is
petite in figure, has dark hair and eyes, was
neatly clad in dark colored garments
and wore gold chain about her,
neck. She watched the proceedings of the
trial attentively, particularly so when the
record Of Shond9l's divorce was submitted
as evidence, and Prosecutor Winfield object
ed on the ground that there had been no per-
sonal service in the divorce proceedings upon
Mrs. Shondell, and further that Mrs. Shon-
dell had brought suit before Judge Brown at
Newburgh to annul the divorce, and that
Judge Brown did declare the divorce annul-
led.
