About to Marry a ChiCagOan.

CTS in the matrimonial game of hearts would be impossible, inasmuch as the di- supreme being in George Middleton's Prairie avenue palace.
 "Such a little thing as divorce in the future does not trouble the fair Lillian. She has made her very newest plans and she will travel westward to become the vorce belongs to Chatterton, who, in his bill, alleges that she compelled him to-play poker against his will and inclination.
 "In reply Lillian said, at the beginning of the proceedings:
 "I am well out of a silly marriage if he gets his divorce, and I hope he will. So far as he is concerned haven't the slight est particle of regard or respect for him. He is only a baby, without the ideas or feelings of a man. Poor dear his friends ought to hire nurse for him or make Salvation Army hallelujah captain out Of him.

 "As Lillian's funds ran low she again in- sisted on her lord and master sitting in the game and, accoding to MT. Chatterton he was compelled to leave his bed in the early morning and join his wife in quiet, quick game of draw poker wherein he was al- ways relieved of whatever surplus change he had.
 George Middleton has proven himself fully capable of coping with the naughty Lillian, and should the present rumor ever reach a substantial focus she will find that, although somewhat advanced in years, he has lost none of his accredited cunning
 The divorce suit settled, Lillian Russell will travel west. George Middleton, who has become rid of his latest wife, is wait ing all agow for this momentous occasion to arrive, and should he succeed in tacking the name of Middleton to the long string already following the line of Lillian Rus sell the debonair theatrical king will more than have his hands full"
 Thus gossips our Chicago correspondent who may, after all, be drawing too long a bow in aiming at the hearts of Mr. Middle ton and the lovely Miss Russell.

of his affairs which will lead to a complete separation from the queen of comic opera, who has cut a clip too fast to suit the choosing of MT. Chatterton.
 'It was tri1e over a year ago that the good people of Chicago were startled one morning by the news that Mrs George Middleton had made a murderous assault on Dotty Howard, a petite little soubrette. As result of the encounter Dotty was taken to the county hospital where she lay between life and death for several days.
 Mrs. Middleton arrested almost within a stones throw of her husbands temple of amusement on Clark street, near Madison. She had caught Dotty leaving the museum, and, without moments warning. the infuriated wife had plunged a knife into the unsuspecting girls side.
 George Middleton, who was standing at the entrance to the museum, witnessed the sudden attack and arrived at the scene of battle in the nick of time to prevent his wife doing murder. He wrested the knife, dripping with blood, from the hands of the half crazed woman, and then, as the crowd began to gather he attempted 10 carry her into his office, distance of 100 yards away.
 'Then the police arrived and Mrs. Mid- dleton was placed under arrest on charge of attempted murder, while the unconsci- ous victim of the murderous assault was hastily taken to the county hospital, where desperate efforts were made to save her life, which, fortunately for Mrs. Middleton, resulted favorably.
 This unexpected climax to a little fiirta- ton caused the gay and festive George to take a lengthy vacation from Chicago. He remained away. nearly three months and did not return until Dotty Howard had been discharged from the hospital and Mrs. Middleton released from custody
 During his absence from Chicago, how ever, MT. Middleton was seeking solace for his wounds in the sunny society of Lillian Russell. That is, of course, MT. Middleton was nothing more than one among host of worshippers at the shrine of the luscious Lillian, but with the assistance of Signor Perugini he was shown many special

that particular matter down, suffering nothing but loss of wife, who, furiously angry at his discovered deception, made a murderous attack on the woman whom she held responsible for leading her gay old husband astray.
 .'As the proprietor of a large museum and the operator of a theatrical circuit for the past twenty years George Middleton has become known to almost every mem Der of the dramatic profession, and his numerous little affairs have always been the choice morsel of gossip for large pro- portion of stage land.
 Having been married to, it Is said, and divorced from six women in matter of some fifteen years, it is no wonder that George has earned the sobriquet of the "Modern Blue Beard" However, if the latest rumor current concerning his matri- monal affairs be correct, the gay old heart breaker will find out he has met a woman fully capable of holding her own at whatever pace he may choose to set.

Chicago, October 15.-With a consistency thoroughly in keeping with the balancing medium of her vivacious temperament, Lillian Russell, the fair Lillian, or more properly, Mrs. Lillian Leonard Russell m-Solomon-Chatterton, has again kicked over the traces of connubial felicity and now comes the rumor of her contem- plated marriage with George Middleton, the millionaire snowman of Chicago.
 "This rumor," says Chicago gossip, lis probably founded on the fact that during the last engagement of the Water Lily in the Windy Metropolis, gay old George Middleton had paid her the most assiduous of attentions. He dined, wined, and other wise proved his yearning sentiments to the womanly woman with the superb voice and superabundance of devoted husbands

favors not usually accorded to the other less fortunate suitors.
 And this is why the willy John Chatter ton has been getting in his fine work with the members of the New Jersey Judiciary. MT. Chatterton has already told some very funny tales to cover his application for a divorce but the funniest of all is the claim made by him that his wife insisted upon his playing poker every night after the performance.
 "Besides being forced to sit in the game Johnny was continually skinned out of his accumulated pocket pieces. Then when his poker-playing wife began to act as the boon of solace for the haunted man from Chicago, Chatterton thought his cup was unddly full.
 "Signor Perugini thought, however, that if he played his cards right he might shift the poker game onto his friend Middleton. That gentleman entered into the game with all the spirit of the western gambler, and after few sttngs Johnny found out that instead of being lamb, George Middleton was a shark, as he succeeded in corralling

Instructive Story

 From the Chicago Tribune. There was a man who lived by rule, He never drank intoxicating liquors, He never smoked
 He never chewed tobacco. He ate moderately.
 He chewed every mouthful of victuals specified number of times, and drank noth- ing at his meals.
 He went to bed early. and never arose in the morning until it was day. He bathed often and regularly. He indulged in no form of dissipation. He never swore.
 Never was he known to utter word that could not have been spoken in the presence of ladies.
 For he said to himself:
 "I mean to live, so that when my obituary is written it shall be said of me, He lived a blameless life. He was man of singular purity and whole columns shall be printed in which I shall be held up to the rising generation as a model. That is an ambition worthy of any man."
 So he went on living by rule. He attained a great age. He outlived all his contemporaries. When he died there was nobody to write his obituary.
 And his death notice occupied three lines in the daily newspapers.
 He had overdone it.
