Returns After Twenty Years

Patrick Kelly, of Wiiliamsburgh,
quarrelled with his wife Bridget, about
u relative one night in June 20 years
ago, and the next day left town and
went to California. Mrs. Kelly, who
was left penniless, went out washing to
support herself and her mother, Marga-
ret Maher. Kelly never wrote TO his
wife, but ten years afterward she heard
that he had died. After Kelly went
away neighbor, Mrs Sarah Smith, be-
friended the deserted woman, and the
two became warm friends. BY dint of
hard work and frugality Mrs. Kelly
saved several thousand dollars and
bought two story and basement frame
house at 90 north 4th street. Before
her death, four years ago, she willed
the house to her mother, with instruc-
tons that when the mother died it
should go to Mrs. Smith, aud then TO
Mrs. Smiths son Thomas.
Soon after Mrs. Kelly's death Mrs.
Smith died. Three months after Mrs.
Smiths death Mrs. Maher also died,
and by the terms of the will Thomas
Smith got the property, ana he has been
collecting the rents ever since. In
the mean time Kelley was doing poorly on
the Pacific slope. He had been ill for several
wears. and once when his friends thought he
was dying. one of them sent a letter TO Will
liamsbCr.h man that he was dead. This false
news was carried to Mrs. Kelly and she be-
lieved it,
In March last Kelly returned TO Williams
burgh for the purpose of being reconciled to
MS wife. When he heard that she was dead
he made inquiries and discovered that she
had owned the north Fourth street house.
Believing that he was the rightful owner he
paid last years taxes, which were in arrears,
and then set about TO get legal possession OF
the premises lie ordered the tenants not to
pay their rent to Smith. In order to deter
mirc who was the owner. Smith brought a
friendly suit against Simon Scgel to recover
Que months rent The suit was tried in the
Third District Civil Court. Kelly being one
of the witnesses and declaring that he was
the lawful owner. Justice Murphy decided
in Smiths favor Since then Kelly has visit
ed the Lee Avenue Police Court several times.

There are several thousand people in Wash

forget that "Kimball pianos are best"
This sentence has haunted them during their
waking hours and been with them in their
dreams for the past two months. Wherever
they Look these words stand out in bold relief

have dissectcd this sentence in thousand
different ways and each has seen in his minds S

acted as spokesman and announced that Mr..

Alfred street. Alexandria, Va. and steno-
eraphcr III the Law Division of the Pension
Office, had outstripped all competitors with a
record of 6,O31 words. the entire list con-
tanning but four errors, and upon this decision
the award was made Lieut. F. A. Cook was
close second with a list of 6,019 correctly
formed words. The closeness OF the contest
evidently enthused Manager Price, who i'm
mcdiately announced that Lieut.. Cook should
be privileged to select the best parlor organ
in the house as reward for his efforts. 1t is
safe TO say that no contest of recent years has
excited more spirited competition, and any
future announcement of the Kimball COM
pany will be regarded with great interest by
the public.

pills, the Misses Horner and Miss Ro-
zelle, gave full proof of the fidelity and
mark ed talent of their instructor. Drs.
G. G. Speiden and Rozelle also contrib
uted to the feast of reason and flow of
soul, Among the friends present were
DR.. and Mrs. Frost, Mrs. Robt E. Pey-

All persons owning or intending to keeI

Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail to take out their licenses
and that others pay on one or two Dogs when
owning and harboring more, or sending them
away during the summer months and bring
ing them back in the fall
My attention has been called to this evasion
of the law, with the request to prevent it by
requiring the policemen to report all such
cases, and fine those who fail to take out IL

The Mayor hopes the police officers will
not be required to report any one, as the law
will be enforced.
