ALL's WELL THAT ENDS WELL
A Bit Of Romance That Happened
In Real Life.

Burns, once upon time, wrote some
thing about the schemes of mice and
men going ''aglee," the idea being that
things do not always end as mortals
propose. The thought is particularly
applicable to c. NJ. Kimball, in whose
case, on Friday evening, the minions Of
the law stepped in and spoiled what
was to have been the most interesting
experiment Of ones life.
1t so happened that KimbaH was for
a considerable time in the employ of
the American Laundry, and Mr.. Wells.
one of the assistant managers of that
establishment. figured out that in turn

besides owing odds and ends amounting
to about $50 more After getting
the account fixed in his mind, Mr..
Wells hunted up City Justice Anderson
and swoqe to a complaint charging
Kfmban with embezzlement.
Justice Anderson turned the warrant
over to Acting Chief of Police Ash,
and the later hunted Kin1ball up. and
it was to have been his wedding night.
It was nearly s O'Clock when the war;
rant was served on Kimball, and he
was to have been married when the
short hand of the clock pointed at the

Kimball was inclined to be rhiloso-
phical. He said he owed the money,
and had all along intended to pay it,
but that made no apparent difference in
the situation, so far as the approach
ing nuptials were concerned. One thing
was apparent-he did not have the
wherewithal to settle the bill, and Chief
Ash, much against his will. escorted
him to police headquarters.
But the young woman who expected
to have been made Mrs. Kimball at 3
O'Clock proved her worth. She felt sat
isfied that her intended had meant no
wrong. and after talking over the situ-
alton with him. she very sensiblv start
ed out to raise funds. She first went,

not knowing what manner of ma KIM
ball was, declined to advance the
money which would set him at liberty.
Nothing daunted, the young woman
tried other friends, but Kimball re-
manned in custody through the night
and the wedding did not come off as
scheduled.
Yesterday morning she was still
skirmishing, and by an arrangement
