BLOOMER WOMAN IN A RUNAWAY.
William Wcllman Under Arrest fol
Alternating Her Affections.

utE
Ansonia. Conn. May 24.--The people
of Shelton have been greatly interested
this spring in handsome young Wo-
man who rode her bicycle about town
I'm bloomers. They wondered who she
was, but all they could find out was
that her name was Miss Lake and that
she had taken the French place at
White Hills for the summer. Last
night she spent several hours in a cell
in the police station trying to comfort
her lover, William Wellman. who had
been arrested for alternating the affec-
tions Of Mrs. Walter II. Larkin. wife
of a well-known New Haven contrac-
tor. Miss Lake and Mrs. Larkin We're
one.
Last fall Wellman met Mrs. Larkin
at Branford and fell in love with her.
He is good looking, and she posed as
an unmarried weman. The love was
returned. and as he rents q farm at
White Hills she came there to live.
Wellman took his meals at Mrs. Lar
kins house and spent all his eve
nings there.
A few days ago q book agent came
to her house and made an engagement
to sell her a book. On Thursday night
he arrived quite late and was let In.
He found Wellman there. Yesterday
the book agent, who was Detective
McEnerey, of New Haven, returned
with the injured husband and Chief
of Police Tomlinson, of Shelton, who
arrested Wellman. Mrs. Lark!n fol-
lowed to the lookup and was allowed to
remain until Wellman secured bonds.
At the time of the arrest papers In a
divorce suit were served on her. Her
husband has been searching for her for
several months. but could obtain no
clew to her whereabouts. He sent her
money through woman friend every
month. Wellman has been prominent
in the Baptist church. Recently he Or
ganized the Church Of the Strangers,
which finally collapsed.

drumming without wearing a badge
and heavily fined by the police judge.
Meeting Mayor Waters on the street
last evening Martin stopped him and
endeavored to get him to remit the
fine. This the mayor positively refused
to do and started toward his home.
Martin followed and kept abusing him,
and finally caught him by the shoulder.
A scuftle ensued. during which the
mayor drew a knife from his pocket
and cut Martin in the neck, severing
the jugular vein. The latter died in ten
minutes. Mayor Waters Immediately
gave himself uo to the officers and Is

nephew Of Waters, endeavored to sepa-
rate the combatants and was severely

THE SABBATH QUESTION.

The Sabbath question Is great dl,es-
ton that Is fast becoming an issue before
the people. Already great inroads have
been made upon this holy day, and IL Gods
day should become a holiday rather than
holy day 1t will be because the people of
this great nation will consent to the
everlasting disgrace, 1t is a blot on the
fair name Of America and an Insult to
high heaven that such a question should
become an issue before the American ma :
ton. The legalzed liquor traffic Is a mon
strous question that has already become
an issue. II Is sometimes surprising to
see the corruption that exists in high
places. Our legislatures hasten to do the
bidding of the liquor traffic in spite OF the
prayers and tears and cntreaties of thou
sands of suffering women and children. /,
has no heart TO be touched with sympathy,
no eye to pity, no ear for sorrow. TO NV
mind the greatest evil of the land is the
legaliZed liquor traffic. 1t stands with
daggers drawn and says morality must 20
the Christian Sabbath must 20, religion
must go. righteous law must 70, and in
the end a righteous nation for which these
men fought and suffered and for which
many have shed their lfe's blood must
go. The best way to honor our dead SOL
der Is to purify and ennoble the nation
which they love and for which they died

i Sturtevant Heating People Admit
Remarks About Money.
Minneapolis, March 28.-In the small
court room occupied by the board Of
education, the investigation into the
heating scandal ,called for by Presi-
dent NJ. E. Gjertsen, was commenced
this morning. Mr.. Eustis told very
graphically of the visit Of Conley to
his office and his statement that he
mad already spent $500 in the endeavor
to introduce his system into the Min
neapolis schools and was willing to
pay 5000 more if he could get Mayor
traits vote. Mr.. Eustis was unshaken
under cross-examination and held that
there could be only one construction
put upon this statement of the agent
OF the heating company.
DR.. Quincy told of the visit of DR..
Dorman, who acted as the representa-
tive Of Conley in making an, offer Of
5000 to pay Quinby for his '.time" If
ne would go to La Crosse. Dr. Quinby
said that there could be but one under
Standing or the offer, as no one could
imagine that his time was worth $500
though he naively admitted that he
wished it was. f..
The line Of defense was the admis-
sion of the main facts, but with an
entirely different construction put
upon them. It was admitted that Con-
ley told Eustis that he had spent
money. but it was explained that the
expenses referred to were legitimate.
The prospective expense of $500 was
twisted, in contradiction to Mr.. Eustis'
testimony, to refer only to coming into
legitimate expenses of the same char
acter as those which were said to have
preceded. A rather significant group
ing Of blocks of $500 developed. Mr..
Eustis testified that Conley said he
had paid $500 already, and would pay
$500 more. And $500 was offered DR..
Quinby. --.e
