ST. GATHERINGS CHURCH.

At d Joint meeting of the congre
CATION OF St. aiherine church.
Redwood Falls, Sunday, called for
the purpose OF devislng ways and
means to pay off the mortgage on
the pastoral residence due in Feb
ruary, 1901, as we'll as to meet all
contingent expenses of the current
year. It was carried unanimously that
"a special assessment of S.. be lev
led on every individual member of
the said congregation, and that this
assessment be paid over in cash to
the treasurer, F. NJ. O'Hara, not
later than Dec. 1st, 1901. This
transaction took place because of
the special emphasis the pastor,
Rev. J. J.. Woods, laid on general
principle that every member of any
congregation should individually
bear his share of the parish debt.
and thus obviate the necessity tf
picnics, fairs, socials, guild parties,
tea parties. ETC., which in measure
was always a side system of sad
ding individual Indebtedness on
somebody else. St. Catherine S
church, he said, was above that
common level now, aud it was their
business. for services rendered, to
live up to the high plane Of the
Gospel maxims, Pay your debts
freely. owe no man anything this
is to love your neighbor as your
self.

dent 10 assign and transfer TO the com
plsinants a mortgage OF real estate.
The bill states that on December 2.

company, far which the complainants cx-
ecuted their negotiable promissory note
payable one year after date. with per
cent interest per annum. ar ~.
This note was secured by mortgage
10 the building company. who transferred
the note and mortgage TO respondent,
January 18th, 1897.
This transfer was not recorded until
February. a., 1899, and in the meanwhile
the complainants. being ignorant OF the
transfer. say they paid $3.50 on the prin-
cipal, over and above the interest. to the
building company on the mortgage note.
Complainants rendered to the respon-
dent the amount due on the mortgage,
deducting the $3.50. and requested the
mortgage be assigned TO the Mechanics
Savings bank OF this city, which request
was denied.
The court was asked TO compel the re-
spondent to assign the mortgage.

WayWard wife Placed Under
Arrest, but Husband Refuses
to Prosecute Her.

Chicago, Nov 15.-Mrs. Katherine Gille-
land, daughter of the Rev, M. M. Park
hurst. of Evanston. and wife Of l.. ii.
Gilieland. physician. of Plainwell. Mich,
ran away from her husband and was
found last night in an establishment in
the worst part OF Dearborn street. She
was arrested.
Dr. Parkhurst is the leading clergy
man of Evsnsten. His daughter was ed
ucated I'm the Lake Forest University.
where she met Gilleland and subsequently
eloped with him. She Is a fine elocutionist
and was graduated with degree In phil
oeophy. They have two children.
Mrs. Gilleland sent their two children to
the family home In Evanston several
weeks ago.
Two weeks ago she wrote two letters
One was to her mother. In II she said
that she had found employment with a
theatrical troupe and was going upon
the stage.
IT cannot bear to live in these slow
surroundings" she wrote II must have
some excitement. I hope you will not
think hard OF mo and will always care
for my dear little children"
The other letter was to her husband.
She said that she had found employ
ment and was going away, requesting
him not 20 follow her
Gilleland pleaded with her to return
to him but she refused, saying she would
suffer the humiliation OF a Jail sentence
before she would go back 20 his home.
You have brought disgrace upon me
now" she said, "and / don't care what
else happens. / intend to go upon the
stage. and whatever you can say OF do
will not change my mind"
Gilleiand went into the court room with
the intention of prosecuting his wife, but
when he saw her in charge OF Policeman
Murnane. he stepped UP TO her and said
he would not appear.
The case as result was dismissed, but
her attitude toward her husband was not
changed. He was waiting for her outside
the court room.
When you have had enough OF the
stage" he told her. you may come back

That will never be-" was her reply.

The board Of canvassers ana registra-
ton concluded fhc official count OF the
votes cast In the Fourth ward yester-

There is a ripple Of excitement In the
social world. The disturbance Is one
which will come as complete surprise
to most of the residents of this city but
the fact was known TO quite a few peo-
pie weeks ago. These have been expeot-
ing a denouement and knew that IL must
come very soon; but just how the infor-
nation was TO get out was question.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Shepard, Jr, have
separated.
There have been no divorce proceedings.
and from what is known thus far none
have been suggested on either side.
1t is not n separation based upon a
charge Of improperly on either side.
Neither pretends to make any such
claim against the other.
On the contrary Mr.. Shepard speaks
feelingly of Mrs. Shepard and says that
she now is. as she always has been, a
lovely woman.
The rock upon which was wrecked the
happiness OF this home was incompati-
bility OF temper.
When one has hot tongue served before
and after breakfast, lunch and dinner,
with a snack of IL as "A night cap, the
oish becomes tiresome and distasteful in
tho extreme.
Mrs. Shepard is the daughter OF Gen. A.
T. Martin. formerly mayor OF Boston.
Mr. Shepard is the only son OF John
Shepard. Sr., one OF Bostons leading
merchants.
The young people were married 1s years
ago. and during Mayor Martins term OF

The event was a memorable one, quite
