WILL DENY EVERYTHING.
Mrs. DraytOn to Reply I'm Time to Her
Husbands Suit.

Mrs J. Coleman Drayton has made her
first public statement regarding the divorce
suit against her, through her counsel. The
delay in filing an answer to Mr.. Drayton'
suit for divorce caused many reports that
the case would go by default, which would
mean an admission of the charges against
her. According tc the New Jersey law the
time for filing an answer expires timorrow,
and up TO the present no papers have APP
peared in the court. 1t is rot probable
either that ally will be filed this week, ar
rangements having been made whereby a
longer time is obtained.
Next TO the qU estion of whether any reply
Will be filed the greatest interest is in what
Mrs. Drayton will say in her defense Her
counsel outlined yesterday what will be
said III the answer. and at the same time
he added a Festive statement that the suit
viii BE- vigorously contested.
Mrs. Drayton will certainly file reply
10 her husbands suit" said her counsel.
There has never for a moment been any
doubt about that The question of when
her reply will be entered has been left en-
tirely TO the Judgment of her counsel Mrs
Drayton's reply will be 4 full and absolute
denial of each and every allegation of her
husbands complaint"
The attorney declined to state when the
reply woul1 be filed, but added: 1T will
not be on october e. nor will we be in de-
fault In cases of this kind counsel always
arrange between themselves for the filing
of all necessary papers. This is a case that

ASEARCH FOR ELIGIBLES
By CHARLES B. LEWIS M. QUAD.

copyright, 1894, by Charles B. Lewis.1
For 30 years the residents of certain
western Ohio town had called Jacob
Todd queer, eccentric, foolish and crazy.
Had the word crank been coined before
his death he would have had the full ben
eft of it. Despite his oddities of character
he was, however, shrewd speculator,
and at his death, which occurred in 1867,
people who had rated him as only com
fortably well off were amazed to find
that he had accumulated fortune of
$500, 900. His wife died in 1854, and he
left three daughters when his turn came.
The oldest was 40, the next 85 and the
youngest 80. They were named, in the
order of their age, Mary, Sarah and Jane.
None of them had ever married or even
had a beau. The reason for this was be-

Her cart" Was Right.

Mrs. H had a warm hearted and
industrious but careless English serv-
ant, who broke SO many dishes that her
mistress one day said to her: Really,
Ellen. | think I must take the price of
the dishes you are breaking out of your
wages. Dou't you think you would be
more careful if l did?'
Hi might, ma am" replied Ellen
contritely, "but Hi think, ma am, it
be better to take it out of my 'ide. 4"
"Out of your hide? Why, what do
yeu mean?"
hi mean, ma am, that if you broke
nv 'ead hevery time Hi broke cup or
a saucer Hid mind myself better. "
One day poor Ellen fell her full length
on the kitchen floor with gallon pan
of milk in her hands. Her shrieks Of
dismav brought Mrs. H in great
haste to the kitchen, There lay Ellen
in the pool of milk, making no attempt
to rise.
KNOCK me in the cad, ma'am;
knock me in the 'ead!' she walled.
"Oh. get mp, Ellen, get up and mop
mn this milk! This accident is more the
fault of your heels that of your head. "
You speak the truth, ma am, re-
piled the weeping Ellen. If my 'eels
lad been where my art is, this never
would ave 'appened, for Hi mean right
in my art, ma am, no matter what Hi
does with my 'ead and my 'eels. -

4 Practical Wooer.

A yoang lady, who was the recipient
Of attention from two young men equal
" eligible in point Of good looks, social
position and financial solidity, and en-
tertaiDed similar feelings for both, was
in a quandary as to which to choose
should they propose A friend to whom
she confded her difficulty suggested
that she should put both to some test to
prove the strength Of their affection
She took the advice, and to the first who
ayowod his affection said:
"You tell me that You love me. How
do l know that you are sincere? What
would you DO to show your loye:"
Anything " replied the ardent low
er who had a spice Of romance In his
disposition. "Anything-Iwould 90 to
the worlds end for you. would die
for you, if necessary. "
Such ardent protestations brought the
bushes to her cheeks and a thrill Of
happiness to her, and she thought that
certainly no one could love her more
fondly than he did She asked him,
however, for a httlc delay before giving
an answer to his suit
Meanwhile the other proposed, and
she questioned him in like manner
well, said he, III tell you what
l would do to show youmy love. If you
marry me, you shall have good clothes
to wear | will see that you are always
the owner Of a handsome sealskin jack
et and that your hats or bonnets are al
ways in fashion, and l will be a faith
full and loving husband to you.
"Dut wouldn't you 90 to the worlds
end for me or any Of that sort Of thing,
YOU know" she asked as she toyed
with his coat buttons.
Il don't want to 60 to the worlds
end, =" he replied. 1--WE got a nice pay
ing business here, and, as for dying for
you, I'd rather live with you. "

flashed before her mind, Il think You

leaned toward her, and in the
