tails Of one of the most peculiar matri-

protested against what to him more
than brotherly and sisterly affection.
Finally three years & he was told
that Frank and Rose had been married
secretly. and when he accused Rose she
left him. He ascertained that she went
TO live with Frank. Then John lost all
knowledge of the whereabouts of his
wife or his faithless brother.
John boarded n Third avenue car at
Eighteenth street, to ride uptown yes

the three, and Frank finally admitted
that he had married Rose. The woman,

There was a general yell for the police.
