HIS TERRIBLE SUSPICION.
II Spreads a Thick Smear of Opaque
Gloom over His Correct
Young Life.

Reginald Ashcroft was the son of rich but
refined parents, and yet he was not happy.
There was panied expression upon his
handsome countenance, and ever and anon
he walked to the window and looked out
over the beautiful prospect that stretched
away toward Wilton manor.
At last he mounted his favorite cob, which
had for two hours been hitched in front OF
the stately old mansion, and dashed down
the broad highway.
Upon reaching Wilton manor the young
man dsmounted and rushed in
Geraldine Huddlethwaite, who had seen
his coming, met him at the door.
There was fond clasping of hands, long,
long look that was more eloquent than
words could have been, and then the hand
some pair entered the drawingroom.
Something troubles you, Reginald" the
beautiful girl said at last. "Ah, do not try
to keep it from me. My love tells me that
you are in trouble. Tell me all, sweetheart,
and let me share your burden"
dearest little one," he answered, as her
fair head was pressed against his breast,
Il suppose l have done wrong to come here
| and cast my gloom over you. But knew
you would worry if / stayed away. Forget
that am not myself to-day. ! am unwilling
that you should suffer simply because
must"
Reginald" she cried, drawing away, "you
do not love me as you should or you would
not have said those words"
"There, there, darling" he replied, draw
ing her to him again, II will tell you all.
| [ will be frank with you"
Then he sighed, and after brief silence
resumed:
"You know am to take part in the match
game of golf tomorrow"
Yes, yes" she answered, and a startled
look came into her eyes.
"Well," he went on, "I am almost sure
that | am to be made the victim of a con-
spiracy-that somebody has been tampering
with my sticks. ! examined them this morn
ing, and one of them looked as if it had been
sandpapered. | am almost sure, too, that it
weighs at least half an ounce less than it did
before!"
Geraldine Huddlethwate was so badly
shocked that she could only stare at him,
and they both sat there in dumb silence

In due time swell lawn party was
given by the hostess at her home, to

was Will Beatty. He was presented to

good fortune little later in the evening to
have her on his arm promenading over the
velvety lawn. In the course of the con-
yersation Miss Blank asked Mr.. Beatty what
business he followed, and he replied: I'm
q commercial traveller" The visitor, pos
sibly in a moment of mental alteration,
made this remark: "In the east commercial
travellers do not go in the best society"
Before the last word had hardly left her
lips Mr.. Beatty replied: "They don't here,
either" Conversation was carried on after
that in entirely different channels.-Wichita

JURORSAWANEWSPAPER
ONE OF GROUNDS URGED IN ROsEN-
BERG's PETITION FOR NEW TRIAL.
Interview with Wife No. 1 ard "A Phil
adelphfa Letter Play
Part.

Attorneys Herod & Herod, who repre-
sented Max Rosenberg. the theatrical man.
who was recently convicted in the criminal
Court OF bigamy and sentenced to the county
Jail for six months and fined $500 and costs,
largely on the testimony of one of his two
wives, have filed a motion for a new trial.
One of the reasons set forth for the grant
ing of new trial is the allegation that an
interview with the mans first wife, pub
lished in the Journal in which there were
hints of hypnotism, was prejudicial TO his
case. The motion for a new trial is sup
ported by the usual affidavit. Oral argument
will be heard on the case in few days,
most likely next Monday.
After asserting that the verdict was con-
trary to the law and the evidence, the mo-
ton alleges that the court erred in admit
ting to evidence an alleged certificate OF
marriage of Max Rosenberg and Blanche
Louise Mitchell in Chicago. by a justice of
the peace. In her interview in the Journal.
Mrs. Rosenberg, nee Mitchell, claimed that
she was dazed and unable to protest when
she suddenly found herself in the presence
of the justice and was asked if she would
have this man to be your lawful welded
husband 1t is further alleged that the
court erred in permitting the defendant to
whether he had ever been arrested for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses in Phil
adelphia, and if he had ever been an inmate
of the prison of that city; that the court
erred in refusing to strike from the evidence
the testimony of Blanche Louise Mitchell,
as to conversations had between herself and
the defendant at the Grand Northern Hotel
in Chicago, May T. 1897, when Rosenberg al
leges that the matter of her marriage and
divorce was discussed. The court also erred,
the motion charges, in giving certain in
structions to the jury, asked by the state
and refusing to give instructions asked by
the defendants attorneys.
The court is also alleged 10 have erred in
permitting w. w. Thornton, who assisted
in the prosecution, to state in his argument
before the. jury that the Mitchell woman
had never told Rosenberg when she pro-
cured a divorce, while the defendant had
testified that she had told him the facts. 1t
is also alleged that the court erred In per-
hitting other statements to be MADE by
Mr.. 1horn1ea in his argument. one OF the
reasons advanced for new trial is that one
of the jurors had, stated IN the 1uryroom
that he took into consideration IN render
ing his verdict q letter written from SUI
perintendent of a. Philadelphia prison, CIV
ing a description OF man similar to the
defendant, that such. man was the defSnd-
ant and that he believed the defendant had
been convicted and imprisoned fora crime,
when, as a matter of fact, no such letter
had been admitted to evidence. AS matter
OF fact, it is charged, the juror had read
copy of that letter in the indianapolis Jour-
nal in the interview with Mrs. Rosenberg.
