MACKEg RUNS FROM CHICAGO.
He Dodges From the Detectives Who Art
on His Trail.

He Dodges From the Detectives Who Are
on His Trail.
Chicago Tribune, August 80.
Judge Thomas Jefferson Mackey and
his young bride, formerly Miss Kath-
crime S. Porterfeld, have shaken the
dust of Chicago from their feet, and
are now supposed to be lodging off,
GERS of the law, who are hot on the
judges trail, armed with warrants
charging the aged gallant with bigamy.
Soon after the appearance of the sto-
ry in The Tribune on Sunday morning
giving history of the case, and dis
closing the retreat of the judge and
his bride at SO Twenty-frst street in
this city, the venerable jurist went to
the nearest transfer Office and made
arrangements to have his trunks taken
10 a railway station. Then he hasten
ed back to his boarding house to pack
his effects. He made no secret there
of the fact that he feared the disclos-
ure of his hiding place would be quick
ly followed by the arrival of officers
armed with warrants for his arrest.
1t was question whether the judge
or his bride was the more apprehen-
sive. Mrs. Memminger, keeper of the
boarding house, says Mrs. Mackey is
the one who urged an immediate
departure from the city. She says the
Judge did not want to take his wife
with him, but Mrs. Mackey declared
he should no6 leave her behind.
By 2.3O o'clock on Sunday afternoon
Judge and Mrs. Mackey were on their
way to the depot. A driver for the
Robert H. Jones Transfer company
took their five big trunks to the Dear
born street station, and the couple
departed on The o'clock Grand Trunk
train, ostensibly for Detroit.
Captain Colleran yesterday received
a warrant from Forrest w. Brown,
prosecuting attorney, of Jefferson
county, w. Va, for the arrest of Judge
tNIackey. The warrant, which charges
bigamy, was sworn out by George O..
Porterfeld, father of the latest Mrs.
Mackey, and charges the Judge with
unlawfplly marrying Miss Katherine
S. Porterfeld while his second wife,
Mrs. Sarah Curtis Mackey, was still
living. ,
A fugitive warrant was at once placed
in the hands of Detectives Dodd and
Davidson, with instructions to arrest
the alleged bigamist. They hurried to
SO Twenty-third street, but the judge
was not there. 1t was at first thought
he had gone to Milwaukee, but later
the detectives ascertained positively
that he had purchased tickets for De-
troit over the Grand Trunk. They
believe the judge and his bride are on
the way to Canada, if not already
there.

IT CAN'T Be DISPUTED

THAT health is one of the most desira-
4 BILE conditions that the human family
can obtain, and yet we find hundreds of
ladies whose constitutions are going to

the waste so peculiar to their delicate

AL COMPOUND is just what they want
to build them up again. 1t is the most
perfect and most natural restorative and

down with unnatural weakness cannot
possibly carry her share of the household
cares. She cannot be a capable wife and
mother. Women who are broken down

Attorney A. A. Goodrich, Judge
Mackey's counsel says he is prepared to
file the papers in the suit for the annul-
ment of the marriage to Mrs. Curtis
Mackey at any time, but is waiting on
the judge. Mr.. Goodrich did not
know that his client had left town until
he was so informed last evening. In
speaking of the case he said:
"Judge Mackey claims to have
proof that Miss Curtis had a husband
living when he married her in 1891.
If he has such proof the marriage can
be easily set aside, and it will not be
necessary for him to prove when and
where the former marriage of Miss
Cults took place."
