NAT GOODWIN ON
HUNC PRO TUNC
Filmy Point Which Holds
His Divorce Case in
Court.
Although Legally Dismissed, the
Form of the Record Is
to. Be Discussed.
Explanation of the Comedians Aban.
Comment Of His Application
for Divorce.

The Nat Goodwin divorce suit in Judge
Murphy's court yesterday took on all the
elements of comedy, as was entirely appro-
pirate, the circumstances being con-
sidered. Though dismissed and done for,
it still hangs in the air on a technical
point SO fine that only a lawyers eye can
see it.
As soon as the case of Nathaniel G..
Goodwin against. Nella Goodwin was
called Henry c. McPike arose and an
nounced that hewished to admit that he
no longer had any grounds to oppose the
position of Attorneys w. S. Barnes and
r. Porter Ashe, who represented Mr..
Goodwin, and who had from the first
contended that the case of Goodwin VS..
Goodwin was dismissed on. the 18th OF
last month. Mr.. McPike said that in view
of decision handed down BY the Supreme
Court of this State on Monday in the case
of Kaufman against the Superior Court 1t
was held that an entry of judgment relates
back to the. time of the filing of the same
by the. County Clerk, where it is proved
that there was no neglect on the part OF
the. person seeking to enforce Or .lnsls
upon the Judgment
Juuge Murphy smiled blandly and re-
marked that the Supreme. Court had af-
firmed the position he had himseiffavored
at the time of Mr.. McPike's argument the
day before. He felt that even without
this last decision the law would have
sustained Mr.. Goodwin in his contention
that the case was legally. dismissed.
It.was ordered that the citation to show
cause why Mr.. Goodwin should not pay
$1,000 attorneys fee and $500 month ali
mony and the contempt proceedings
hereunder were also dismissed.
Then came the pinch IN the legal con-
test. # would naturally be supposed by
an ordinary citizen that the case being
declared out of court it would make but
little difference what became of the rec
ord, but the lawyers took different view.
Mr.. Barnes moved that the court make
an order nunc pro tune instructing the
County Clerk. to amend his record so that
it would appear that Judgment was
entered on the 10Th of November, the. day
of filing the notice of dismissal, instead OF
the 23d, the day on which the manual

A. SUSPECTED FOoTPAD.
George Taylor, FroW st. Louis, Arrested
Early Yesterday Mornin &, Carrying

George Taylor, Frop st. Louis, Arrested
Early Yesterday Morning &, Carrying
a Revolver and an Iron Bar.
A man is locked up in the tanks at
the City Prison, and the police think that
he would have made a reputation as
footpad if he had not been arrested.
About 2 o'clock yesterday morning
Policeman George Douglass was patrolling
his beat on Post street, and near Jones
street his attention was attracted by the
suspicious actions of man. He watched
him. and as soon as the man realized that
fact he covered his face with his hat and
started to walk hurriedly away. Douglass
ordered him to stop, and seeing some
thing sticking out of his overcoat pocket
he drew it out. 1t was piece of an iron
bar. sixteen inches long and about one
a half inches in diameter. A piece of
colored cotton was wrapper around it and
tied with a string. 1t is an ugly looking
weapon. heavy enough to kill man with
one blow. A revolver loaded in every
cham Der was also found in his pockets,
and 50 in coin.
His answers to Douglass questions not
being satisfactory, he was taken to the
CITY Prison and placed in the tanks"
pending an investigation.
He gave the name of George Taylor, 80
wears Of age. He is about 5 feet inches
tall, dark hair and mustache and was well
dressed.
Detective cambridge had talk with
him yesterday He told cambridge that
he came from st. Louis about two weeks
ago, He was a laborer and had been try
ing to find work, without success.
He said he had put the iron bar and
revolver in his pocket because he wanted
to be arrested, on account of being unable
to procure work as a laborer.
cambridge asked him if he knew sew
eral we'll known people in st. Louis. but
he had to admit that they were strangers
to him.
His statement that he is a laborer is not
believed. His hands are soft and his gen.
eral appearance indicates that he has
never done any hard work. If nothing is
discovered about his past record within
the next few days, he will be charged with
carrying concealed weapons and get six
months in the County Jail.

.tion.

sentatives from each block, was appointed

where fireworks and music and frohc will
be furnished for the entertainment of the
public attracted to the street by the dis
play and by the promised cordiality of the
self-imposed hosts at every place OF busi-
ness along the line of illumination.
s. Rosenthal solved the problem of
uniform decoration by suggesting that
Chinese lanterns be draped from the arc
lamps all along the middle of the street in
strings of fancy lanterns looped from the
midway electric wire to the buildings
on both sides of the street. He was
heartily applauded.
Fl. ii. Plant was appointed committee
of one to visit the lodging-houses along
the line of proposed decoration and OBJ
tain their cooperation.
As delegation to the Federated I'm
provement Clubs the following were
chosen: Messrs. Bennett, Moore and La
