CEREMONY WILL BE SIMPLE.
The Harrison Dimmick Wedding Will Be
 a Quiet Affair.

The Harrison -Dimmick Wedding Will Be
 a Quiet Affair.
 No details have been arranged yet for the wedding of ex-President Harrison beyond the fact that the ceremony will be performed in the daytime, probably at o'clock, by the rector of St. Thom- as church, New York, Rev. ]. Wesley Brown Only few friends will be present, and it is understood that no members of the ex-president's family will be present. There will be no deco rations to speak of in the church, and whether there will be a wedding march played by the organist is not yet known.
 The ex-president, being Presbyteri- an, is not used to the forms and eere- monies of the Episcopal church, and for that reason the ceremony will be as simple as possible. There will be none of the grand processional music and down the aisle marches. It is probable that the couple will meet in front of the altar without any prearranged marching at all.
 Those who are close to the x-presi- dent think he will have, if possible, all of his old cabinet members present. General Benjamin F Tracy will be among the guests. It is thought that Mir. Harrison's old law partner. ex=Attorney General W. H. Fl. Miller, will be the best man. After the marriage ceremony the couple, 1t is thought, will go direct ly to Indianapolis and spend the honey moon at home.

THE DIVORCE MILL
The Hoover Case Quickly Withdrawn
for Cause

The suit instituted by Mrs. Jennie
Hoover against her husband, A. F. Hoo
yer, and which was Withdrawn the other
day, is likely to come up again in court
only by agreement. Mr.. Hoover Is q
man about IS years of age, while his
wife is only about 26. That Grabbed
age and youth will not mate together"
has passed into proverb. In this par
ticular case the young wife, while not
perhaps pretty, has that French dab
cleric animating her face that mas served
in good stead for mere beauty of feature.
This young wife having tired of her hus-
band, packed him bag and baggage out
of the house, which was owned and held
in her own name. Her husband got
even, however, by having the deposit
tions of several young fellows taken, by
order of the court, and they made reve-
Iations that showed Mrs. Hoover up in a
rather peculiar light. She thereupon
withdrew her suit for divorce, not de-
string that her skill in certain ways
should receive publicity.
A. M. Hackney yesterday filed her
complaint in divorce against Robert
Hackney, alleging failure to provide.
Helen M. Disc also filed complaint
against Edwin A., on the ground of de-
sertion.
The suit of Mary Stewart against
Samuel Stewart came before Judge York
on motion for alimony. An order was
made for $50 attorneys fees and $40 De.
month alimony, the first payment to be
made at once.

COUNTIES CONTROVERSIES.
Only the Legislature Can Act in
Strengthening Out Differences.


The supreme court on Monday decid-
ed that it was only within the power
of the legislature to settle controver
sizes between counties, and that the
courts had no jurisdiction over such
matters.
Orange county was created out of the
territory of Los Angeles county by an
act of the legislature of March IL, 1889.
A commission was appointed to adjust
matters between the two counties, and
June 8, 1890, report was made by the
commission, fixing the amount due
from the county of Orange to the county
of Los Angeles. In March, 1892 the
county of Los Angeles received from
the state of California in repayment for
the amount expended by the county fol
the support of indigent persons the
amount of $19032.43. Orange county laid
claim to $1903.70 of this amount, alleging
that it was entitled to that sum for the
reason that the amount had accrued
when Orange was a portion of Los
Angeles. 1t was admitted that the ex
istence of such claim against the state
was not known to the plaintiff or de-
fendant or to the commissioners at the
time the division Of assets was made
Los Angeles county refused to contrib
ute. The case came UP in Ventura coun
ty, and a decision was granted Los An
geles county.
In affirming the decision the court
holds, with Sedgwick county VS.. Bun
ker 16 Kas., ass: Where county is
divided the rule for the division and
apportionment belongs exclus-
the'courts: and when the leglsla ture has
determined how the debts and property
shall be divided and apportiored, the
courts cannot interfere"

TROUBLE FOR DR.. SELLWOOD
Arrested on Two Criminal Charges aad
Lodged in Jail
Petty Larceny and Obtaining Money
Under False Pretenses Alleged.
His Checks Worthless

DIR. John j. Sellwood, an p-to-date
physician who has been conducting the
National Medical and Surgical Instl-
tute, with offices I'm the Bryson block,
is in peck of trouble over money mat
ters and was yesterday afternoon
lodged in the city jail by Constable
Harry Johnston on two warrants alleg-
ing petty larceny and obtaining money
under false pretenses.
The first complaint was issued at the
instance of Thomas Marley, a capi-
talist who some time ago loaned DIR.
Sellwood s25. AS the money was not
returned at the time promised Marley
pressed the doctor for n settlement,
which the latter professed himself un-
able to make. He, however, gave his
creditor bill of sale on his medical
library to be held as security. 1t later
developed that the library was mort
gagged for about it's full value, and 9TH
er peculiar transactions on the part of
DR.. Sellwood coming to Marley's ears,
he decided on causing the arrest. He
therefore charges DIR. Sellwood with
having on August 18th last stolen from
him the $25 in question.
Frank w. Drake of the drug firm of
c. Laux & Co. is the complainant In
the second charge upon which DR.. Sell
wood is held. The defendant alleges
that on September 14th Dr. Sellwood,
by means of pretcnsiops that he had
an account in the Farmers and Mer-
ohants' bank, induced Drake to cash a
check for S., which he signed, which in
strument afterward proved to be
worthless The defendant has never
made his check good and is alleged to
have willfully and knowingly obtained
the money under false pretenses.
There are yet others in the city wl.o
have had checks given by the festive
doctor in their possession. One OF them
was Colonel Bob Kern, who held a
couple for small amounts, but exerted
so much pressure on the physician that
he finally dug up the cash and redeem
ed them. Constable Johnston assisted
Bob in this matter and became thor
ougnly conversant with DIR. Sellwood' s
methods. Accordingly when the COM
plants were filed and the warrants is
sued he started out, and at little af-
ter p. m. landed his man in jail The
defendant will probably be arraigned
before Justice Owens in the police
court this afternoon and date for hear
ing will be set.

HE JUMPED BACK.
Justice Sexton Moves His Court Few
Blocks.

On Monday last it was made publicly
known by The Herald that Justice Sex
ton Of Ballona township was and had
been for some time dealing out great
chunks of law without any more author
ity than any one of the: "hobos't in the
city chain gang
When the township lines were read
Justed by the board of supervisors, the
Ballona Justice allowed them to be
Drawn around the place where he holds
court, and, as a consequence, he was
outside the bailiwick of Ballona and in
the city OF Los Angeles. That meant
tnat he was reduced from a township
justice to nonentity, so far as admin
lstering the law was concerned.
Now the question arises, what about
the decisions given by Justice Sexton
while thus illegally sitting? 1t is,said
that there were no criminal cases, but
there were number of civil ones. In
saying, too, that there were no criminal
cases the statement Is hardly correct
After w. 7. Spillman was discharged by
Justice Young, who refused to hold him
on the charge of having frauduently
obtained money from Mr.. Nichols, the
complaint in the township court against
j. Il. Warren on the same charge was
withdrawn. New complaints were
drawn by Assistant District Attorney
WllllaInS, ana DOtn men were arrested
and taken before Justice Sexton, the
Ballona magistrate. 1t was discovered,
however, that Justice Sexton was with
out jurisdiction, for the reasons stated,
and SO both men had to be again let
loose and the complaints withdrawn.
A third set of complaints are now un-
der consideration in the district attor-
ney's Office, and meantime Justice Sex
ton has moved his court a few blocks
and got within the lines of the township
of Ballona, throughout which his juris-
diction extends.

James Tirrell is u comparatively
young man, but it looks as if before the
gray hairs begin to show that he will
nave had life filled with varied expe..
riences.
Yesterday he had quite an exciting
If not altogether cheerful day.
He showed up in the morning in de-
partment five in answer to citation
in divorce proceedings, and was mulct-
ed for attorneys fees and alimony.
After the noon hour he showed up
smiling in Judge York's department as
defendant in a suit brought to recover
on a note for s325. He got the wrong
end of the law there, and then went
home, presumably a sadder If not
wiser man.
Mrs Mary Louise Tirrell, like the
Lady Jane in the operetta Of Patience,
can feel proud and congratulate herself
upon her "maSsiveneSS. OF fairly pleas
ing countenance, her black eyes SNAPPED
while reciting her grievances from the
witness stand.
She insists that her slimly built hus-
band has about $4,000, the residue of
legacy from an aunt, which he has hid=
den away and has openly boasted that
neither she nor the courts can reach it.
Mr.. Tirrell, however, said he had spent
it, and Furthermore made open confess
sion that he had spent most of it in
gambling. This open statement of hav-
ing fooled $4,000 away in eight months
proclaimed Tirrell speedy young fell
low, and the court snuggled up in his
chair, drew pad of paper towards him,
and made ready to keep tab on Tirrelps
gambling debts.
The court wanted to know how, when
and where the various sums of money
We're frittered away. The replies were
not satisfactory. Tirrell could only re-
member two poker joints where he had
gambled; did not know the names of
the men who won his money, save III
the case of one man named Call
Mrs. Tirrell, on the other hand, testi-
fled that her husband had transferred
lot of his property to his father. She
knew because the papers were returned
by his father who, in the accompanying
letter, reminded him that the date of
the papers was Sunday, and the trans
fer would not be valid.
Judge Shaw made an order that Tir-
rell pay $7o attorneys fees, 500 costs and
$40 per month alimony during the pen
dency of the divorce suit
The divorce proceedings were begun
by Tirrell, who alleged intidelity on the
part of his wife with one William Jung
the offense being committed August @
at 800 Clay street. Mrs. Thrill denied
the charge, and in her cross complaint
alleged that in April of the current
year, at 5121a Broadway, her husband
went back on his marriage vow with a
woman named Belle Bonenberger, and
had been guilty of similar dereliction
from duty at North Arlington. Mass, in
December, 1893, with a married woman
named Mrs. Louise Hunt. The further
charge is made that Tirrell, with satyr-
like instincts, attempted an assault up
on Mrs. Tirrells daughter, Mrs. Lulu
Dolsen.
The various racy accusations and in
situations made by both parties to the
suit have engendered a great degree of
bitterness, and when the divorce suit
comes up some interesting revelations
may be anticipated

Miscellaneous Notes.

Professor Marravilla has won his suit
against his patron, DR.. Gregorio Del
Amo Gonzales. and yet he can hardly
be imagined as happy in the result.
After celebrating over the case for
about three hours yesterday, the jury
returned into court and placed an esti-
mate of only $1O64.45 on the professors
services to the doctor.
From the arguments made by
counsel on either side it may be natu-
rally inferred that while Professor Mar
ravilla thinks the amount fixed upon
by the jury as altogether too small, DR..
Del Amo thinks that it is altogether
too large.
Senator White, in addressing the jury,
succeeded in showing up the aged pro-
fessor in somewhat ridiculous light,
and made it appear that while with
his patron he enjoyed all the delights of
a leisurely existence, he was absolute
ly compelled at Redondo to do some
light carpentering by way Of recrea-
ton. OF course the senator made no
allusion to the services of Marravilla
in connection with the doctors mar
riage. AS all that pertained to the time
of that interesting episode was barred
out by the court, no refernece was made
to it by counsel, and yet it was, if there
is any truth in Marravilla's narrative
at all, as direct consequence of his
actions at that time that he enjoyed the
pleasure of doing nothing at later
date and being immeasurably well re-
warded, so far as board and lodging and
good cigars went, for doing it.
Attorney Brooks grew eloquent in de-
nouncing the attitude taken by DR.. Del
Amo, and fired many a shot at him
while analyzing the testimony. In
making as strong case as he could, I'M
| der the circumstances, for his Client
he missed few opportunities to give a
quiet dig to the defendant.
