THAT wonders never cease is again
made manifest. Charles T. Thatcher,
treasurer of Middleboro, Mass aehu-
sets, has rendered his resignation af-
ter a service of twelve years. His re-
port shows that there is in the treas
ury $500, 900 more than he can account
for. He does not know how it got
there. Unhappy man! He may be
sure of one Of two things. Either he
has cheated himself out of $500, 600 or
donea disgracefully poor job of book
keeping. He ought to go to Canada.

THERE are many complaints being
made at Denver of the slovenly man
ncr in which the registration of wo-
men voters is being taken Some of the
canyasscrs are extremely illiterate and
Others exert their influence to prevent
the women from registering. One lady.
active in the cause of equal suffrage
having complained of the incompe
tcncc of the canvasser in her ncighbor
hood, it was pointed out to her that
the man was appointed upon the sole,
tatiou of her husband. who is power
in politics. Evidently it is time for
her to go into politics, to offset her
husbands influence.

OF this county,
A number of lawyers among them the at
torneys for Barnes aud Mullins, urged the
governor to call upon the Supreme Court to
decide which police board was the legal one,
and thus end the contest. Governor Waite
was not at all disposed to adopt this course.
Hee1pressed himself as feeling outraged by
the action OF the District Court In enioining
hm and he was tired Of appealing to the
courts. lie said the last time he asked the
Supreme Court to decide on the penitentiary

he did not care TO give It another chance TO

any aIlbon that looked like a back down. But
hls lawyers threatened to drop the case, his
Populist friends argued and Mr.. Waite
pleaded. and late In the afternoon his excel
leney intImated that he would ask the su-
prcmc Court 10 pass judgment on the case.
The governor said that he was perfectly
willing TO agree TO submit to the courts de-

that he would fight rather than have the mat

A YOUNG WIFE.
Her Attempts to Break Away from
an Unfortunate Alliance Final
ly Successful.

Frank Conklin, we'll known young
man in this city, is now minus wife and
family, accompanying which statement OF
fact is sensational story that is just now
being talked alb out good deal About
four years ago Conklin married young
lady who was at that time in the employ
of Father DeFouri. In the course of
time their union was blessed by two
children, and there was every possibility
for lifelong happiness on the part of all
parties concerned. 1t became known be-
fore long, however, in the neighborhood
where the family lived that all was not
serene in the home circle. Mrs. Conklin
COMPLAINED VERY BITTERLY
not only that her husband failed to sup
port her and her children, but also that
he frequently abused and otherwise mis-
treated her. She expressed her deter
mination to leave her husband and carry
her children to her mother in Topeka
at the very earliest opportunity.
1t is stated that her first attempt
was to have been made on the night of
November 6, thinking that her husbands
absence on election matters would enable
her to leave town without notice. At that
time she received railroad ticket to
Topeka from her mother and had all her
plans to leave arranged, Conklin's un-
expected return home that night led to
his
FINDING THE TICKET
and, it is stated, Furnishing his wife for
her attempt to 60. This ticket having
been destroyed nothing further was done
until day or so ago, when, having re-
ceived another ticket from her mother,
Mrs. Conklin took advantage of Conk-
Inns absence at San Ildefonso, where he
had gone as interpreter with Capt. j. R.
Hudson, and started for Topeka with her
children Immediately. She took the 8
O'Clock train for Lamy, but q. M. Conk-
lin, her father-in-law, having learned Of
her departure, hurriedly left Santa Fe,
overtaking her at Lamy, where she was
waiting for the departure of the east
bound train. Here
QUITE A SCENE
occurred between the father -in-law and
young wife, resulting in the latters ap-
peal to number of by-standers to aid
her ia avoiding an enforced return to the
Santa Fe home where she had left much
unhappiness behind. This appeal was
not in vain and accordingly about mid
night Father-in law Conklln returned to
Santa Fe alone, while Mrs. Conklin and
her two children we're being carried for
ward at speed of thirty miles an hour
to her mothers Topeka home. As for
Mr.. Conklin, the younger, he returned
from San Ildefonse to find his home
empty. 1t is not known what steps, if
any, will be taken by the family to bring
Mrs. Conklin and her children back tc
this city. Meanwhile good many peo
pie are talking about the episode.
