day to Alfred c.. E. Fischer and Mrs.
Mabel Anfang, as the sequel to the
divorce with a Hudson background that
was granted to Mrs. Anfang by Judge
Kelly last Monday The groom to be is
a city salesman, living at 315 Walnut
street. Before she became Mrs. Anfang
the bride was Miss Mabel Ward.
At the divorce trial 1t appeared that
when Miss Ward was eighteen years old,
and Adolph Anfang a year older, they
went together to Hudson, where they
were united in matrimony. This was
Feb. p, 1898. The newly married couple
returned to st. Paul Immediately, ana
went to their respective homes.
The secret leaked out, the old folks in
terfered and consequently the Anfangs
never lived together. Desertion was the
cause alleged for the divorce.

w. HI. Adams Sentence.

The state board Of pardons held a
special meeting yesterday and committed
the sentence of w. H. Adams, of Mime
apolis, from three years and nine months
to two years, which makes him eligible
TO parole. The communication was granted
upon the recommendation of Judge Har-
rison, of Minneapolis, the trial judge.
who, in a communication to the board of
pardons, states that the sentence was ex-
cessive At the time he believed Adams
to be mixed up in misdoings other than
the theft of bicycle, for which he was
convicted, and, therefore, imposed a
heavy sentence. Subsequent investigation
disclosed the fact that this was not the
case.
