ANOTHER MRS. M'NEVIN
ARISES ON THE SCENE

OAKLAND, Oct. THE complications
arising from the hasty and at the time
seemingly bigamous marriage of Mrs.
Beatrice Barnes and E. H. McNeyin, a
navigation school instructor, are multi
plying. The story of their marriage be-
fore a Reno, New, Justice while divorce
suit was pending against Mrs. Barnes,
wherein the plaintiff had named McNevin
as correspondent, was exploited In The
pears rather unexpectedly another woman
on the scene, who gives her name as Mrs.
A. c. McNevin, and who claims to be the
wife of the McNev1n who married Mrs.
Barnes. Presumably as the sequence OF
this new conner McNevin and his new
bride have changed their place of abode
from 6lS Eighth street to somewhere in
Mrs. A. c. McNevin tells a peculiarly
plausible story. She claims to have just
went eighteen months ago with friends
and with the knowledge and concurrence
Of her husband to locate claim in the
klondike. While absent she received let
ters full of protestations Of affection i'm
portuning her to return to him, which
she finally concluded to do, with the idea
that they would return next spring to
develop the claim. Now that she has re-
turned she says she is much aggrieVed
and surprised to find that her husband
has proved untrue to her, Mrs. Barnes
having supplanted her in the affections
Of the navigation instructor. She de-
clares, moreover, that it has been repre-
sented TO her that during her absence Nc
taken up a residence there long enough to
secure divorce, and this without having
had served on her a summons, though he
knew her address. She asserts also that
McNevin sold her sealskin sacque to raise
money with which to prosecute his di-
VOrce suit.

SUDDEN SUMMONS OF
FREDERIC ALLEN POOR

OAKLAND, Oct. 7.-Frederic Allen
Poor, secretary of the State of Maine
Society, died very suddenly at the home
of his daughter. Mrs A. G. Davis, 1925
Adeline street, early this evening.
He had been working among the flow
ers In the garden at the rear of the Davis
residence, and while walking toward the
house in response to the supper bell sud
denly faltered and fell to the ground. DR..
Akerly was promptly summoned and ad-
ministered powerful restoratives, but to
no avail, for death had intervened.
Deceased was a native of Portland,
Me-, aged 63 years, and came from his
native Maine over twenty years ago and
settled in Oakland. He was a newspaper
man of considerable ability, having been
at various times connected with the Oak
land Tribune and Enquirer. He was also
at one time employed in the Oakland
postoffice. OF late years he had devoted
most of his time, outside of his secretary
ship duties, to life insurance. He was
well known throughout this State not
alone for his abilities but also for his
cheerful and genial manner, his kind and
sympathetic heart and ever readiness to
do a friend a good turn.
Deceased leaves a widow, a daughter and
two sons, Fred A. Poor of the COnnecti-
cut Fire Insurance Company, and Joseph
Poor, who is a railway engineer in
Oregon.
An inquest will be held next Monday

NORRIS A GEM
in BAD SETTING

There's a gem OF an old daguerreotype
at the Orpheum-Felix Morris.
The costume matters not at ALL 1t is
gentleman-of- -the-old- school picture Ill
ways-a clearly outlined bit Of aristocracy
treasured in the gilt and red velvet case
Of quaintness.
The Hawaiian queens are paintings on
ivory-sweet pea colored miniatures. And
there the pleasure ends. The others on
the programme are harsh daubs splashed
in lurd paint-pictures that hurt They
are better forgotten.
When Mr.. Morris came westward the
last time he brought a support that was
positively bad. This season it is mega
lively good. May luck bring him hither
again with the kind of people he deserves.
His company handles Behind the
Scenes" in a commonplace way and leaves
the fineness all to Morris. It is not an
aggressive group, though. They appear
Comfortably reconciled to the fact that
the audience pays no attention to them,
and they go dutifully through their lines
In way that bespeaks non-French chops
honestly earned.
There is to be a special season of farce
comedy at the Columbia, opening tonight
brings Hii along with It Eddie Foy and a 100
night New York record. Judging from
the posted pictures Eddie is the same as
ever "A MIX MI Ky White hit, Elias Flag and Mat

zar for a weeks run. "Satanella' and

cordin6 to Mrs. Trays complaint the sea-
son of marital bhss was of short duration.

treatment and abuse. She alleges that
only last month, about the 5th. her hus-
band knocked her down with his fist and
beat her so awfully that she was bruised
and sore for several days thereafter, and
her arm was so sore that she could not
raise it. On the 4th instant, ac-
cording to Mrs. Trays allegations,
quarrel occurred over some trivial affair,
and on this occasion the husband caught
the wife by the hair and pulled and
dragged her about IN her room; also beat
ing her and finally driving her from the
house, locking the door so that she could
not return.
Mrs. Tray asks that the court give her

OAKLAND, Oct. Mrs Augusta ST.
mons to-day filed a demurrer to the COM
plant Of her husband, Anthony Simons,
in his suit for a divorce brought on the
grounds of cruelty. A motion was stimuli
taneously filed to strike out portions of
the complaint. The case has been as
signed to Judge Greene's department of

ises to prove decidedly interesting. for
while Mrs. Simons admits that she is no
longer in love with Mr.. Simons. and
though she is not averse to a legal sep
aration, she does not propose to rest un-
der the stigma that she has been cruel to
her husband.

Y. p. A. STATE CONVENTION OF THE
EVANGELICAL ASSOCIATION.

The eighth annual state convention
of the young peoples alliance of the
Minnesota conference branch, which
was held in the Emanuels church, Blue
Earth, circuit from the 22d to 25th
inst, came to close Sunday evening.
Bishop Thomas Bowman, of Chicago,
preached the annual sermon before the
delegates on Sunday morning. The
sermon was we'll delivered and was full
of truth and power. 1t was highly ap.
preciated by all who were present and
will undoubtedly leave lasting i'm
preston on all who heard it.
Rev. J.Cs. Nornberger, of Cleveland
Ohio, also rendered most excellent SER
vice. His addresses were inspiring
and full of good advice. The essays
rendered were we'll prepared and also
we'll delivered. Song services were
held from time to time conducted by
DR.. B. F. Simon, of Minneapolis. The
conference male choir, of Mankato and
East Prairie Quartets and the choir of
the Emanuel and Blue Earth societies
furnished the convention with the
necessary music which was appreciated
by all.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year:
President-Rev. J. NJ. Baitinger st.
Paul
Vice Presidential Habein, Waseca.
Rec. Secretary Miss Clara Miller,
Wells.
Cor. Secretary-Miss Amanda Huel-
ster, st. Paul.

DIRECTORS MEET.
Young Mems Investment Company Ar.
ranging for Rebuilding,

A meeting of the directors of the
Young Mems Investment Co. was held
Tuesday, at which the proposed re-
building of the structure was talked
over The only thing that stands in
the way of rebuilding in difference of
$50 year in rent between the direc-
tors and the proprietors of the Star
Steam laundry. The latter desires to
lease the entire basement and half of
the first floor, and it will attend to the
heating of the building. The difference
between the parties is so slight that it
does MT seem as though it would long
stand in the way.
AS soon as lease is made with the
laundry people, a meeting of the stock
holders will be called to empower the
directors to proceed with building. The
new building will probably be two
stories high and the brick facing
will resemble that of toe Mankato
State bank building, Much of the iron,
stone and brick required are already on
the gound and the cost of construction
will not be great,

PHOTOGRAPHERS MEETING.
MankatO May Get ii for Next Year if il
Speaks Up.

The photographers of the city are
going to try to bring next years con-
vention of the Northwestern Photo.
graphers' association to Mankato This
years meeting will be held in Mime
apolis in August or September, and all
of the meetings have been held in one
or the other of the twin cities. The
members desire to go somewhere Sc
next year, and it is thought that they
can be brought to Mankato. The ter.
ritory covered by the association is Min
nesota, North and South Dakota,
Northern Iowa and Western Wisconsin.
The convention will last three or four
days and the only thing required of the
city is to pay for the rent of a hall
where meetings can be held and photo
graphic work exhibited. 1t has been
suggested that the third floor of the
Glass Block will be the best place for
the meeting, owing to its being we'll
lighted.
Our citizens will no doubt back up
the photographers in whatever they do
to bring the convention to Mankato,
as it will give the city a big ad
