THE TWO MISS MARYS
Church Row at Dayton Over a
Love Affair.
HESTER WAS THE LOTHARlO
Engaged himself TO Two Girls, Both
Church Members. Which
Started a Feud.

Starbuck, Wash, Feb. 16.-The Day
which reached crisis yesterday morn
ing about 4 o'clock. terminating in a
bloody battle, was the outcome of
love affair.
In the first place the teud started over
Bob Hester engaging himself to two
young ladies. Miss Mary Fables and
Miss Mary May, the latter being the
one whom he married.
Mary Fables was a dressmaker Hes
ter went to Honolulu. and sent her
handsome silk dress from San Francis
CO. Miss Fables made the dress, pre-
paratory to her marriage to Mr.. Hes
ter on his return. When Hester did
return. six months later. he brought
with him another silk dress for Miss
Mays wedding gown, and Miss May
took 1t to Miss Fables to have it made
The latter, prompted by curiosity. asked
Miss May what occasion 1t was to be
for. and Miss May told her in conf
dence that 1t was her wedding gown
and that she was going to marry Mr.
Hester. and the girl learned for the
first time that they were expecting to
Both girls were members of the Bap-
fist church, and the affair led to a
church trial. the result being that both
the handsome wedding gowns were
burned in the church stove. Suisse
quently Hester ingratiated himself into
Miss Mays favor again, and she be-
came his wife. Miss Zable's friends
took it up, and wanted Mr.. and Mrs.
Hester put out of the church, and then
1t was that the church divided into two
factions-the Hester-Booth faction and
the Bodwell-Samuels brothers faction
and there has been n row ever since
over the possession of the church.
About three weeks ago Levi Ankeny,
the Walla Walla banker, locked the
doors against both factions, as he had
a mortgage on the church. The Hester
Booth faction went to Walla Walla,
paid the interest and got possession of
the church. which they have kept since,
until yesterday morning at daybreak,
when the Embellishments faction
broke into the church, taking the sleep
ing guards by surprise, and precipitat-
ing a bloody fight.
This morning the floor and the walls
were spattered all over with blood
Several were injured besides Bodwell,
who had his head nearly split open.
This row has been going on for more
than year, and 1t is said that the
whole town is divided on the subject
1t Is said that Hester was engaged to
six young ladies at one time, but Miss
Fables Is the only one who has caused
him any trouble

MRS. NANStN HAS NO NEWS
She Is Hopeful. but There Is Reserva-
ton OF Doubt.

Christiana, Feb. 16.-Widespread as Is
the interest over the whereabouts Of
Nansen, an interest extending today
over the whole world wherever the tel
egraph and cable can reach, it can no.
where be more keenly felt than in this
city, whence the expedition of the Fran
sailed in 1898.
Having In mind that the first news of
himself that the explorer could by any
possibility transmit would probably be
directed to his wife, a representative of
the Associated Press has called upon
Mrs. Nansen to inquire what news she
has of her husbands whereabouts. She
has received no word from her husband
directly But she is profoundly hope
full that the news which first came from
Irkutsk, and has since been corrobo-
rated from other sources, is authentic
and that DR.. Nansen has, in fact, solved
the secret of the north pole and is now
safely emerging from the mystic isola-
ton of the frozen regions.
1t must be added, however, that there
is reservation of doubt In Mrs. Nan
sens mind. despite the hopefulness that
buoys her up. The absence of direct
news to herself leaves the room for this
doubt.

President Dole returned to this city on

them, and at the close of the meeting
they were profuse in expressing their

ZIMMERMAN HOME FROM ABROAD
Explains His Failure to Return With An
unbeatcu Record

San Francisco, Feb. ia. A. Zim-
norman, the champion professional BIZ
cyclist, who arrived this morning from
Australia, attributes his failure to
come back with an unbeaten record to
the Australian climate. The bicycle
racers of that country, he says, do not
compare with those of America or Eng
land in speed. but no matter how fast
foreign rider may be he can not ex-
pect to win races until he has lived long
enough in the country to become accli-
mated.
Zimmerman was rather reticent about
his plans in the United States. He said
he had not yet decided whether he
would race again. If he did race 1t
would probably be in Paris, where he
has standing offer of $500 week for
one race a week.

spired by sentiment, unrestrained by

work Of dishonesty. The victim yester-

ened victims are the white men Of Nir-
gInia. Democrats of consistent records and
distinguished services, who refuse to bow
the knee to the Baal OF Organism: to-
morrow the iron heel of tyranny and cor
ruption would press as heavily with
declared majority OF those now sup
porting Bryan If any political exigency
should bring these into opposition 10
the masters and slaves OF the ring. The
impertnent assumption Of this faction
is to hold itself superior to the popular
will. to override not only minorities. but
majorities by midnight rining of ballot
boxes and felonicus juggling with re-
turns. In giving to such practices the
condonement Of silence the honest free
men of Virginia are but surrenderlns
their own right TO a voice in the control
Of public affairs, Indicating their SOW

registrars and poll-keepers. and giving
their assent to the bald proposition that
representative government no longer ex-
fists except in name.
Such is the tendency; such must be
the inevitable end OF acqulesccnce In the
pretensions of those who are seeking still
further to emphasize their control OF
the election machinery In this State.
The holding Of an election IS useless
farce where it is conceded that the voters
are at the mercy OF the judges, and that
a candidate may be declared elected or
defeated, not according 10 the number
Of votes he has received. but according
TO the preferences or prejudices OF the
subordinate officials, whose humble province
it once was merely to count the ballots
of the citizens and make returns accord
ingly. There is but one remedy, and that
lies with the people themselves. Should
they neglect to apply it, they will share
in the shame which must fall upon any
community in which such peryerslcns OF
law and assaults upon liberty are the
rule. To submit tamely to the yoke OF
such despotism Of fraud is to ensure TO
Virginia moral and material penalties Of
heavy weight. Already the finger Of sus-
picion points toward her escutcheon; let
it not be converted into the form OF
righteous condemnation.

the sacrifice OF the rights of any OF her
citizens. Whatever may be the object we

these qualities. We trust our people will
