PLANS WERE CAREFULLY MATUR-
ED BEFORE THEY MADE THE
FLYING TRIP,
WHICH ENDED THEIR CoURTsHIP.
They Are Now Comfortably LOcnfed
at u Home on Pleasant
Avenue.

James E. Cowan, manager of Cowan's
Express company and until last week
resident at 344 Sherman street, has
oeen a Widower, and is at present the
rather of three small bits OF human
lty, seemingly of an age. But, despite
this, MIR. Cowan, after admiring the
ladylike gentility of Miss Bride DOH
erty, who, with her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Richard Doherty, resided in the
second fiat of the dwelling at 344 T'ler-
man, and comprehending that their
mutual alteration could not long be
concealed while residing under the
same roof, decided upon a change
After due coaXing and persuading he
convinced Bride that he was right,
and Wednesday, after removing all
the household effects from 344 Sherman
to the more commodious quarters at
756 Pleasant avenue, he and Bride
boarded the train for Hudson. They
at once looked up Archibald NJ
Pitcher, D. D., elder of the Methodist
Episcopal church, and were married.
Upon their return they repaired to
the Pleasant avenue home, where the
little CowanS and a MISUNDERSTANDING
housekeeper awaited them and where
they have since resided, not even their
most intimate friends having found
them out.
Mrs. Cowan was seen at her home
yesterday and was greatly surprised
to learn that anything was known
about the marriage. She would sim
ply say that she had been married
Wednesday in Wisconsin. She is a
prettily appearing young woman, with
dark brown hair and eyes and a trim
figure. Mr.. Cowan was also seen and
said they did not wish the affair adj
Vertised.
Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Doherty, the
parents of the bride, were greatly put
out that anything should have been
said about the matter and would offer
no information. They considered it
quite surprising that an every day oc-
curence like secret marriage should
cause comment. Mr.. Doherty is the
bookkeeper for the United States Saw
ing and Loan company.
Mr.. Cowan's wife died two years ago
at the house on Sherman street.

HUSBANDS WOULD NOT PAY
For the Transportation of Their
Families to Seattle.

For the transportation of Their
Families to Seattle.
Secretary Hutchins, Of the relief so
ciety, who has been caring for the party
Of destitute female emigrants who
stranded in st. Paul Friday. while on
their way to Seattle, Wash, to join
their husbands, has decided to send the
party back to Chicago. whence they
were forwarded to ST. Paul. instead of
aiding the women in their westward
journey.
This decision is impelled by the belief
that there is coming into existence a
general plan Of appeals to charity on
the part Of poor emigrants DESTROYS Of
reaching different sections Of the coun-
try. Another factor in the present case
is Secretary Hutchins' Discrimination to
send undesirable emigrants to Wash
ington. The women and their children
would have been sent on to their hus-
bands had not the latter refused to rem
der any assistance in the matter of their
transportation.
Mr.. Hutchins states he has been in
formed that at the time the party now
on his hands secured transportation
from Chicago, another party of twenty
nine persons was endeavoring to like
wise prevail upon the railroads to fur
nish free transportation to its members.

."Tom" Lucas Spoke.

Thomas H. Lucas Of Minneapolis, ad-
dressed a fair-sized audience, composed of
the members of the A. R. u, Local Branch
No. PA, at Assembly hall last evening. The
out to his auditors that in past ages, during
the feudal period, the land had been wrested
from its rightful owners by a so-called spe-
cies of government, and that if it was ever
to be restored the restoration must be
brought about by those of the present time
engaging in the affairs of state. The labor
ing man was often advised sto let politics
alone, but, in the opinion OF the speaker,
politics was an eminently fitting province for
the working man. 1t was he upon whom
governments depended for their existence,
and it was but right that the laborer have
voice in their administration.

MAY BE ASPHYXIA.
Theory as to Tony Pecaldo's Strange
Condition.

Condition.
The case Of Tony Pecaldo, the Italian
fruit peddler, who was picked up in the
Burlington yards Sunday night and sent
to the city hospital, seems to be sur
rounded by mystery. The man regain
ed consciousness yesterday and is ap-
parently in a fair way to recovery, but
as yet he can only speak in monosylla-
bles and can give no account Of how
ne reached the point where he was
found by the train crew. Were it not
for the adverse symptoms manifested
by Pecaldo, the hospital authorities
state that asphxiation would probably
account for his condition. The car in
which he rode from Minneapolis was
heated by coal stove, and when exam
ined yesterday morning, was still found
to be full Of coal gas. Pecaldo left Min
neapolis at $40 in the evening in per-
fectly healthy condition and arrived in
ST. Paul at $40. Shortly after this time
he was found insensible in the Burling-
ton yards. Pecaldo works for J. A.
Shea & Co., wholesale fruit dealers, in

communicated to an adjoining staircase

about $3.50. The property is owned by a

EctaFy
Two cases of restitution were dis
covered in the city yesterday. The
most distressing was reported to Sec
rotary Hutchins, of the Relief society
A woman and her sick child had been
turned out in the cold, by an employer,
it is said, because the child seemed
about to be taken down with diph-
iberia. The pair wandered about the
streets until late at night, when they
were found in an almost exhausted
condition by policeman, who sent
them to the city hospital
the second case was that of a poor
family in the Arlington Hills district,
who were reported to Mr. Jackson, of
the Associated Charities, to be lacking
sufficient food and warmth to keep
them alive. A visit to the house found
