MR.. WILDE EXPLAINS.

Mr.. Wilde in an interview with a repre-
sentative of the Press said:
my present wife is lady have known
for many years countrywoman of NINE
having been born in Dublin, and is the
daughter Of the secretary of the board of
frequently at dinners and other
entertainments and it happened
that upon each instance of that
sort I was favored with the request
to conduct her to supper and otherwise
see that she participated in the enjoy
ments of the evening. The result was
natural-we got married. To own up the
entire truth Of the matter, l might tell
you that we ran away and were married
secretly. Since our marriage she has
been living at home with her mother, and
l have Oeen living at home with nv
mother, Lady Wilde. Now, however, we
see an opportunity to estab lish menage
deux, and we therefore publicly an
nounce our position. 1t may be that we
shall be married over again, possibly in
Westminster Abbey with a lot of
bishops and lot Of high dignitaries Off
ciating.
81 had some difficulty in getting a
license to marry second time The
English church makes a great deal of
| ceremony about permitting an individual
who has got the worst of it In a divorce
suit marrying again. My visits to
Somerset house were numerous before l
finally overcame her majesty's objection
to this step. But finally it was ar
ranged.
Without wishing in any way to reflect
upon the ladies Of America, must express
certain satisfaction that my present
bride Is not American The stories that
l received any money from Mrs Frank
Leslie when married her are absolutely
false. l did demand settlement Of
$1,000 from her, and this she promised in
the presence Of my mother to make me-
but when reached New York she argued
that American customs did not permit an
ante-nuptial settlement and, therefore.
she would not arrange anything definitely
until after we were married. She said if
after that event would call upon her
lawyers, Messrs. Cromwell & Sutherland,
they would adjust the matter to my en-
tire satisfaction.

BRITANNIA WINS.
Beats the Vigilant Over Fifty Mile
Course for the Cup.

HUNTERS QUAY, Firth of Clyde
July 1O.-With very light sir blow
ing across the bay and the prospects
bad for yacht racing the yachts Vigil
liant and Britannia started this morn
ing in the race for the Clyde Corinthian
cup, valued at $780, The course was
the now familiar one of the Royal
Yacht club from mark boat No 1 off
the splace across the bay to and
around mark boat No. 2, off Skelmorlie
on the opposite shore; thence back
across the bay and to and around the
mark boat off Ascog, Isle of Butte;
from there around the mark boat OIL
Kilcraggin and back to the Hunters
QUAY mark boat, twice around this
course, making the total distance 5O
miles.
The Britannia did not cross over the
lines until three minutes after the gun
fire. The race became more interests
ing as the two yachts approached the
| Cloch shore, for the breeze had freshN
eped, with promise of holding on all
over the firth. Passing the Cloch
light house they stayed to starboard
almost together, standing good way
in to Lunderston bay by turning.
The Vigilant's sails were far from be-
ing in good order, the main sail es
pecially setting away. On the short

were virtually unchanged. The Wig

RUFF HAReRovE CAPTURED.
The Man Who Unlocked the Outside Door
With q Kew Of His Own,


The Jail delivery which took place
here last Sunday night is still causing
a great deal of talk, inasmuch as only
six of the II escapes have been captur-
ed and the principal criminals are not
Of this number and the chances are
very much in their favor at the press
ent writing. Yesterday Deputy Sheriff
A. j. Thorp came in from long hunt
without any success, except that he
was instrumental in the capture of
Ruff Hargrove, who was taken at
Hornsby Bend and brought to the
city yesterday morning. He is a hard
customer and is serving term in the
county Jail for attempted rape. He
will have an additional charge
to answer now, as he stole a
horse in order to put distance
between himself and the officers.

A horse kicked H. S. Shafer of the
Freemeyer House, Middleburg, N Y,
on the knee, which laid him up in bed
and caused the knee joint to become
stiff. A friend recommended him to
use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which
he did, and in two days was able to
be around. Mr.. Shafer has recon-
mended it TO many others and says it
is excellent for any kind of a hruise or

famous for it's cures of rheumatism.

possibility that the great railroad
strike will be Investigated by the
house committee on Interstate and

tions to the purpose, notably that in
troduced by Representative Crane OF
Texas, have been referred to the com"
mite and Chairman Wise of Virgins
has designated a gu b-committee to con-
slider the whole question. The sub
committee consists of Mallory of Flori'
da, Brickner of Wisconsin, Gresham
of Texas, Mahon of Pennsylvania and
Hepburn of Iowa. The sub commit
tee held a meeting today to consider
the abvisability of an investigation
and will report tomorrow. 1t can be
said on authority of one of the SUBJ
committee that the report will recon-
mend that an investigation OF the
whole railroad strike be made. This

templated in The resolutions intro
duced, which were for an inquiry into
