HAS THE CERTIFICATE.
II Shows Ada Richmond Was Wife
of Late John StetSOn.
Ceremony Took Place In Suburb Of
ProvidcEce--Coniest Likely.

NEW YORK, May 9.-Tbe statement
made by Miss Ada Richmond, the actress,
that she was married to the late John
Stetson, the theatrical manager of Boston
in 1871, is substantiated by Mr.. Alexan-
der Melhaio, Miss Richmond's lawyer.
whose offices are at 234 Broadway.
MIR. Melhalo said today that the certifi-
cate OF marriage was in his charge, and
that 1t is, and has been for years, de-
posted in safety vault in this city. He
has not himself seen 1t for long time,
but says that it will prove conclusively
that Miss Richmond and Stetson were mar
ried in little village near Providence,
X. j. The date he does not remember. lie
declined to speak aboat the matter in de-
tail, however, until he shall have con-
suited with his client, but added that
even were there no certificate of marriage
in existence, there are other papers In
the vault, which are records OF deeds a al
transfers, that would of themselves estab-
lish the claim put forth by Miss Rich
mond. The whole matter, this lawyer
says, will be cleared up ina short time.
. The will Is TO be presented in court for
probate, and set up before 1t becomes
operative.
Mr.Stetson's nearest OF kin is John stet-
sol, OF. us Idtner. ne mas nlOSt at interest
in the matter. 1t will depend very much
upon him whether there is a contest or
not. The will makes no provision for
him, or anybody else but his wife, and
she, being dead, without will on her
part, If John Stetson, Jr's., will stands,
the property passfs to her estate and
then 10 her next of kin, who is her
mother, Mrs. Emma Stokes. The sisters
share upon the demise Of the mother.
III Mrs. Adah (Richmond) Stetson
proves tire validity of her marriage con-
tract with John Stetscn, Jr., then very
interesting contest comes upon this will.
In that case ! he marriage OF Katherine
Stokes with John stetsor, Jr., would be
invalidated, and she must be proved to be
the legatee named entitled to he bequest.--
tn one for whom It was intended by the
testator-before her heirs can share.
IL Adah Richmond comes In as a con-
testant then the father, John Stetson,
Sr., will core in perforce as contestant
in his own right rs the next OF kin.
In this connection his statement that
he p rsonally knew of no Will except
what he read in the papers. may have
some significance' indicative OF his
future course In the proceedings.
"In contest as one lawyer stated,
"you will find that the old man, as John
StetsoD's father, and, therefore, his near
est of kin, will have the Test end of the
stick on division of the estate nnder
the law. He is not named at oil, you see,
and unless there is some compromise
among the parties by watch he gets some
thing, IL would not surprise me at all If
there was notice OF contest as soon as
this will is onreed for probate, and heat
ing upon the citation TO nearest of kio,
which m musbissue. There r. bound to be
tortuous litigation before we get
through"
John Ste,son, ,r, also had sisters, who
arc next after the fatLcr In order OF kin j.

Bad Bill Put a Congregation In Kansas
TO a Severe Test.
One OF the best known characters in the
old pioneer days in the west was gem
tieman distinguished by he sobriquet
"Bad BILL" What his real name was no
one knows, but the nickname was appro-
PIRATE and amply sufficient.
Among the many good stories OF this
worthy, one OF the best was rece ntly
told by man who was present at the oc-
currence described.
Great Bend, Kan. now one OF the best
towns In the State, was at one time about
the worst. This was when IL was rail-
road terminus before Dodge City was es-
isblisAed.
A travelling evangelist, went to Great
Bend and tried to start a revival. There
were few Christians in town and these
oil attended the Erst meeting, the only
one OF the unreGenerate present being
"had Bill" who took front seat.
The evangelist requested oil who want
ed TO go 10 heaven To stand MP, and
every person present except Bill arose.
When they were seated again Bill got up,
and drawing two pistols said: "You all
say you want to 60 TO heaven. Now, any
thing / can do TO help this game along,
and give pleasure to the players, Pm In
for. You all want TO go 10 heaven. and
I'll give you as good a chance as you'll
ever have. The first man that gets up
I'll give him a ticket clean through, with
out any stopovers The evangelist
crawled under a seat and the members Of
the congregation lay on the chairs.
"Well," said Bill, ~ see you wasn't in
earnest, SO we will put out the iigh is
snd call this meetin' adjourned. One by
one be shot out the lights and by morn
ing the evangelist was on bis way TO
Hutchinson, while the members OF the
congregation kept quiet and made no
further attempts at holding a revival =

A fourth voice of religion TO politics

suppose that a man who has nothing else

The duty of the politician IN this coun-

Seemingly by accident. the detective
pushed against the satchels and found
that thor contents jingled considerably
confirming the detectives suspicious that
they contained plunaer of some kind.
But before making an arrest he wished
to get the man who had left as well as
the one in the station. For this purpose
he made a considerable detour, think
ing that the second man might join his
companion; but in this he was mistaken
and finally arrested the satchel carrier
and took him to police headquarters at
the city hall. When the satchels were
opened they were sound to contain large
and valuable collection OF solid silver
ware, including pitchers, butter dishes,
urns, salvers, knives, forks, spoons, CEN
dlesticks, ETC., on which were the initials
q. w. s. and q. w. X. in German text
letters. The FELLOW said his name was
George Weaver and that he having got
ten into Strengthened circumstances was
compelled TO sell the silverware which
had been given him by his parents, both
of which were now dead. Subsequently
he said his name was Richard Clayton
which proved to be the fact.

was informed that the man with whom

that the latter was expecting 10 meet a

The Value of Intuition to
the Detective.
How IT Led to An Important
Arrest in This City.
Livery Stable Keeper and How He
Failed to Get His Money.

"A lar &c acquaintance with the criminal
classes, their methods and ways, un-
doubtedly forms most valuable part Of
the equipment of a successful detective;
but another and equally important ell
ement is that intuition which enables a
detective TO discover a criminal without
previous knowledge of his wrong doing
ful trade other than that which his career
stamps upon his countenance. Without
this intuitive sense a detective seldom or
never reaches the higher plane of his bus
mess and every one who has long follow
ed this dangerous and generally thank1ess
calling can point to cases wherein he has
made arrests of criminals simply upon
the promptings OF this intuitive belief
that they were wrong doers. Detective
Parker OF this city has bad many cases o I
this kind and one OF the most typical
OF them Is worth relating because 1t indi-
Gates how truo this intuition is in the
man who has long been dealing with
criminals. Standing one day at the
corner of Westminster and Dorrance o
streets he saw passing through the form
or street two men, Que of whom carried
two apparently heavy satchels.
There was nothing about -them that
would attract the attention OF the ordi-
nary observer. To him they might be bus
iness men on their way to a train or COM
meyciel travellers who, after finishing
their business, were on their way to some
OF her city. Not so with Detective Par
ker. Intuitively he came to the conciu-
sion that they were crooks of some sort
and he promptly decided to follow them.
Before reaching the railway station on
alter few minutes conversation parted,
the one carrying the satchels going
toward the station, and the other in a
different direction. A few minutes later
the detective was In conversation with
