AnIMoNY ALLOWED TOO LATE.
Federal Court Interrerca with n South Dakota
Divorce DcciaIon.

BOSTON, Aug. ga decision of Importance
in South Dakota divorce cases was rendered
by Judge Putnam of the United States Circuit
Court this morning in the case of Christine
Hekking against Henry ]. Pfaff. involving tho
validity Of u decree of the South Dakota Court.
The plaintiff sought to compel the defendant,
her former husband. to pay her $25,0oO ali
mony, rs ordered by the court of South Dakota.
Judge Putnam finds that the decree on which
the suit is based Is void. and that therefore the
suit cannot be maintained.
Pfaff met Christine Hckking in Germany.
They were married in 1888. Within three
years the couple had disagrcements, and the
wife went TO Sioux Falls in 1892. She OBJ
tanned a divorce on several grounds. including
intidciity and cruelty. There was no appear.
ance on the part OF the husband. Young Pfaff
at that time was not supposed to have much
property, and at thar time nothing was said
about alimony. In 1893 his father, the brewer,
died and left his son a million dollars.
ThercupOn Miss Iekking asked the court to
reopen the suit and pass upon the question of
alimOny. 1t was reopened and the alimony
granted. Judge Putnam has declared this pro.

RING lost IN PARK ROW.
Name or the Loser ana Finder Unknown. Al
though tho latter Was Arrested.


Some person unknown and likely to remain
unknown dropped a ring In front OF 143 Park
row yesterday. presumably about n quarter
after l o'clock, as SO shining q mark could not
have remained unnoticed long in that crowded
thoroughfare. 1t was picked up at that hour
by an Italian. also unknown. who carried a bag
over his shoulder as IL about to 90 on a journey.
As he picked It up several panhandlers, like
wise unknown, fell upon him.. claiming the ring
as their own, and he addressed them in high.
pitched words. the meaning of which was Just
as unknown as the Italian, the panhandlers, or
the owner of the ring.
Several policemen who did not stop to give
their names rushed to the spot and rescued tho
italian, but not before the crowd had hustled
him of the sidewalk and an unknown stranger
had been knocked down by an unspeciicd
wagon. driven by a youth who escaped without
revealing his identity, receiving injuries con-
corning which no definite Information Is to DO
had. The Italian was escorted by the police to
q nearby awnshop-which one OF half q dozen
is "a matter In dispute-where the ring was
proved to be brass and of the approximate value
of three cents. The Italian departed. but
whether for the Klondike gold fields, the South
African diamond mines. or HackensaCk, y. j.,
nobody stopped to inquire.
No rewardi Is offered, 80 far as Is known, for
the recovery of the ring.

They want to Have the Privilege or stII Hear
Ing Its Sweet Tones.
The Volunteer Fircmen In Flatbush. who were
displaced by the regular Fire Department four
years ago, when the town became a part Of
Brooklyn. have petitioned the Board Of Alder
men TO present their old bell to Holy Cross
Catholic Church. They say:
cit was presented to the town several years
ago chiefly through the efforts OF the members
Of the Volunteer Fire Department, and II is not
at present in use. It's sweet tone has not been
heard for the past four years. and now when
enterprise and progress arc fast blotting out the
landmarks of our native town, we feel that we
ought to preserve this last link which binds the
past to the present by donating it to q church
which will Zcalously and carefully guard 1t as q
priceless heirloom for future years"
Some Brooklyn authorities have suggested
that the bell be given to the Troy firm In part
payment for the big bell which is to be placed in
the new City Hall cupoln. but the Flatbush
veterans will use every effort to prevent this
disposition of IL.

Some Plain Facts.

Grave errors, injustice, wrongs of
greater or less degree, arise from lack
of knowledge Of the truth, and more
frequently from deception.
The most infamous case on record
of deception and injustice is the at
tempt to demonetize silver as a money
of final redemption in the United
States.
There is no learned judge, skilled
lawyer, or court of justice that is
capable of reconciling the effort with
the constitutional laws that govern
the issue of money in this country.
The people have been deceived,
officials in power, chosen to admins
ter justice under the laws, have
ignored their sworn duty, and given
aid to the scheme that has paralyzed
industry, reduced property values
one-half, and beggared millions.
There is no authority Of law, either
specific or by inference, by which
gold alone is made the only money
with which to discharge debts, either
public or private, The effort to
make it so is unconstitutional and a
national calamity.
Plain and ample information, facts,
and truth, concerning this almost sue
cessful scheme to corner the wealth
of the people, is now being printed
in the Cincinnati Enquirer, a news
paper which the combined power of
money has failed to muzzle or buy.
