ABANDONED At THE Al TAR
Man Fails to Keep Faith with
Woman He was to Marry.
SUES ADAM PIESCHEEK.
Jury Awards Nellie Kuk1ya of Eaton
$500 as Balm for Her
Wounded Affections.

Green Bay, Wis, March 24.-ESpe-
cial. Nellie I<uklya, the 2O-year-old
daughter of Polish farmer of the town
of Eaton, has just been awarded $500 as
balm for the wounds tickle lover in
ficted in her heart and affections. She
is now trying to collect the judgment.
The story told in court by the girl tells
of one Adam Piescheek. the 24-year-old
son of another farmer in the same town
in which Nellie lived. Nellie and Adam
had been thrown together since early
childhood. They kept up this close COM
partnership after leaving school, ard as
time passed on their friendship grew in
to a feeling akin TO mutual love. Inc
suit was looked upon with the eye OF
favor by the paternal and maternal rela-
tives of both principals and the towns
people all agreed that it would be a
good match.
Aaam Proposes to Nellie.
When Adam Piescheek asked Nellie
Kuklya to become his wife Nellie con-
sented AS stated before, the old man
looked with favor upon Adam Piescheek
as a prospective son-in-law. He blessed
both the children, had a voice in liking
the wedding date, and turned to and TOOK
Il hand in making arrangements for the
nuptials.
1t was to be a church marriage, and
three times did the priest in the pretty
little Catholic church at Eaton read the
banns from the pulpit. A great many
invitati were sent out, and the COM
ing event was the talk of the town. Inc
brides creation was not stunning crea-
ton by Worth. but it was an elaborate
affair for a town of Eaton wedding.
Prospective Groom Fails to Appear.
The day set for the ceremony finally
arrived. The bride-that-was-to-be, ar
rayed in her bridal gown--veil, flowers
and all-was waiting for the prospective
groom. Adam Piescheek. He was late.
The hour set for the ceremony APP
proached-and yet he did not come. A
suspicion entered the mind of Nellie
Kuklya. The hour passed and with it
several more. And yet the lover did not
come. Then dark thoughts surged
through the soul of Nellie Kukiya. AT
ter years of constant affection Adam had
proved false. With heavy heart Nellie
retired to her chamber and removed her
bridal vestments.
Nellie Kuklya sued the tickle Adam
Piescheek for breach of promise, demand
ing $1,000 damages Adam appeared not
to defend himself. Neither did he have
an attorney present to prevent the case
from going by default. This left the
amount of damages to be awarded as, the
only question for the jury to decide The
jury returned verdict fixing the dam

filled at $500

HIS OWN DRESSER.
How Lord Salisbury Appeared When
He Had no Vale.

Our London correspondent supplies an
amusing and characteristic story of Lord
Salisbury. 1t is known that the premier
is most careless in his dress, and that he
is much too serious in his mind and oc-
equations to have much regard for the
merely ceremonial side Of life.
For some years this failing produced
no evil results, for Lord Salisbury had a
faithful valet, who looked after him; but
one unhappy day the valet left, and
Lord Salisbury was reduced to his own
resources. 1t was. levee day, and the
minister was in the midst of serious bust
ness up to the last moment. He rushed
home, turned out large bundle Of uni
forms, of which, of course, he has a
quantity, and took the first that came to
his hand with the astonishing result
that he wore Il coat that belonged to the
Elder Brethren of Trinity house, dep
uty lieutenants pair of trousers and a
hat of the Royal Archers. Even that
was not the worst. He wore his garter
on the wrong side, and things reached
their climax in the waistcoat, which,
dating from an earlier and less robust
period OF his life, left between it and the
trousers what was once called. in the
case of another parliamentarian, "a
