New YORK, Sept. 23.-The World
will tomorrow say: Otis s. Gage, for
merly of Liverpool, KY, but now living
in this city. is defendant in a suit to re-
cover 100000 damages for alternating
the affections of Mrs. Cecil Flora Nc
Neil. The plaintiff is George E. Mcneil.
who is a conductor on the New York &
New Haven railroad. Mr.. Mcneil is
also a railroad evangelist, and is study
ing for the ministry. Mr.. Mcneil
married Cecil Flora Cartwright. Of
Oswego, Tioga county, eleven years ago.
She was pretty, a graduate of Cornell
university. and her parents we're
wealthy. Mr.. Mcneil afterwards settled
in New York, where he met Col. Gage.
and a strong friendship grew
up between the Kentuckian and Mr..
Mcneil, with the result that the
colonel finally became a member of the
Mcneil household. Out of theserela-
tions grew a suit, begun six weeks ago,
in the court of common pleas by Nc
Neil against Col. Gage for 500, 900 for
alternating his wife's affections. AT the
same time Mcneil sued his wife for alb.
solute divorce, naming Col. Gage as CO.
respondent. Col. Gage and Mrs. Nc
Neil have just served answers in the
suits, and both make general denials.

Friend, you will notice n thing in

of his campaign fund into circulation.
He will. beyond a doubt. endeavor to
bring to his aid the chairman of some
congressional district committee, to-
gether with a number of other s'astute
p~oliticjans." If in the course of
events this body is designated as a
ring" you can generally feel satisfied
that it is hit in the right spot. If they
should try to convince people endowed
with ordinary sense that everything is
a ring and that what is known as a
political ring such as the in ques-
ton is but a few ''sympathizers,"
jumbled up together like a flock of
sheep drawn together by animal in
stinct, you may be sure that ''the serv-
ices of an expert machinist should
be secured at nee to regulate the
wheels in the heads of the members of
of the aforesaid ring. If by chance this
ring should fail to run their town at a
certain caucuS a few weeks later, you
will certainly notice that There is q
cog broken somewhere in the machin-

clined to notice anything at all you
will not have to be told that a certain

people of late. This. however, is not

Klttie O'Brien, a habitue of the motor.

morning to commit suicide. She has led
a dissolute, low life, and decided she
wanted to die as she had lived. But she
did not succeed, and the community
considers itself unfortunate. The

Mrs. Weed, a woman of equal delicate
moral sensibilities, in a basement room
OF the frame tenement row at 3I9 Second
avenue south. Saturday night, &C
cording to he story she told Patrolman
Dugan yesterday morning, O'Brien did
not come home, and iniher loneliness
she visited a neighboring drug store
and purchased three ounces of Iauda-
mum. This she took early in the morn
ing. Her roommate, Mrs. Weed, re-
turned after midnight i'll a maudlin
condition with a man from the National
hotel who claims to have met her on
the street near the house, and accom-
panied her to her home to ''See what
kind of a place he was getting into"
He found the entrance to be by a cir
cuitouS route through two alleys and an
old wOodSned. beside a dark hallway in
which the sound of running water lent
a very Lost in London" air of mystery
and crime. Arriving at the ROOM, a low
c%eilinged, unlighted room, so far as
natures lamps were concerned they
found the O'Brien woman disrobing
for bed. AS she undressed she
announced in a very matter of fact
way that she had taken laudanuIn
and was going to die. The Weed
woman, according to the story told the
officers, was in an agreeable condition,
n coolly prepared for bed herself.
The National hotel man begins at this
period to tell II of the most revolving
stories ever narrated, involving three
male visitors to the room. one of whom
was a blind man. 1t was through his
narration of his experiences to some
other men after his departure from the
den that the matter was brought to the
attention of the police. Patrolman Du-

brought to a half conscious condition.
Antidotes were administered, and al

pressed grave doubts as to the POSSIBLE
lty of her recovery, at 8 o'clock last
night she was up and around as though
nothing had happened.

Sundays Fires,

The fremen had a busy day yester-
day. At 4:44 the fun started with an
alarm from Adams street and Thir-
teenth avenue northeast, closely fol-
lowed by another from Fifth street and
Fifteenth avenue northeast. A bad
blaze in ID dwelling house at 1411 Wash
ington street northeast was responsible
for both alarms. The house was badly
damaged, but the occupants managed
to escape without injury.
While this fire was in progress the
down town section was called out by
box - to the Big Boston clothing house
on Washington. near First avenue south,
where the fire of midnight had broken
out again. 1t mad little opportunity to
do any more damage, however.
A small fire in a dwelling at Twenty.
fourth street and Hennepin caused by a
gasoline stove, occurred shortly after
noon. and at 4 o'clock a small fire in the
Bryant school at Thirty-eighth street
and Third avenue south called out a
section of the department.

herself up an inch and a halt, austerely
replied:

"Oh. my!" exclaimed the nun, while
she made a note of it.

fashionable young women who were ar
ranging their costumes in front of the
mirror stepped forward.

You are the first woman who was ever

'Oh, that's easy; I've known her
from away back, before her money
counted" was the reply.
Anent this Vanderbilt ball, another
incident has not been printed. There
were a number of onlookers who were
not invited. Among those who escaped
the vigilance of the detectives was a
well-dressed crank who somehow had
made his way through the crowd to the
music gallery. Discovered there, he
was questioned as to his right to be
present. 'Oh, Pm harmless" he re-
piled. I'm only a citizen, and | thought
I'd LOAF in here and see how the quality
enjoyed themselves"
When Lady Vaudeville first came
over here on a visit to Mrs. w. X. Van
derDilt her little twins were mere tots
OF English children. who had evidently
been brought up in the severe atmos-
phere of the conventional go%verness.
Cn the first morning after their arrival
tney were taken in to the family break
fast table. Whoever has been III this
room will recall the beautiful stained
glass windows through which comes the
soft, dim light that IL sees In a great
cathedral. 1t was noticed that the chill
dren sat silently. with their hands In
their laps, and did not eat. On being
demonstrated with, one of them stole 10
his mothers side and said: mamma,
we don't like to eat in church."
Around that Vanderbilt ball centers
many an unhappy thought. Happiness
begun there has ended in unhappiness
elsewhere. Sermons might he preached
about it. and The poorest of the poor
may we'll congratulate themselves that
their lot has not been cast in such a
mold. Coronets of misery are more In
evidence than happy households. The
girls who married for a title and got it
are now seeking divorce, and many an
American woman whose American gold
bought her a lecherous husband with a
name of European fame would now be
willing to exchange it for the serenity of
a pure woman at the washtub.

A Lot of Nonsense About Con.
gross, the Democratic Party
and Labor's Rights.

NEW YORK. Sept. 23.-General Master
Workman Sovereign delivered a rousing
address before District Assembly No.
40, K. of L.. at Union Square to-
night. In the course of his remarks he
called attention to promises which he
claimed the Democrats had made two
years g to "giye prosperity to the
country"
well. the party got all the power it
asked for, and we saw the wave of
prosperity" Laughter.
Congress was in session almost con-
tinually for more than eleven months,
and during that time starving labor
beat on the house doors and charity
was taxed to sustain the lives of our
furnishing poor as 1t was never taxed
before.
But, during that time three remedies
were evolved. What were they? They
were a single gold standard, interest
bearing bonds, and 'COxey, keep off the
grass
Then they passed a tariff bill which
no n would father and which the
president was ashamed to sign and
had not the courage to veto.
Yet there are still some working men
who do not know from where the next
meal is coming vino shout themselves
hoarse from morning till night for some
old party that is rearing the fabric of
social life on the enslavement and serf-
dom of Gods homeless poor. while the
nobler qualities of mind and heart
slumber in undeyeloped savagery.
Labor IS grooming on the rack of
legallZed violation of natural rights and
natural liberty. So long as the indus
trial masses are robbed of the fruits of
their toll through the legaliZed violation
of natural rights there will exist a
slavery more abject and hopeless than
of bolts, bars and chains, for
member have not the individual heart
and conscience of men, but assume the
form OF imperiouS, cruel, u%nrelenting
fate.
"a nation that descends to class leg
islation for the benefit of individuals
n corporations need never hope for
aught but lawleSsneSS and violence and
discomfort. If our government ever
returns TO the principles of equity and
brotherhood it will do so through the
