from the smiles that ioated around
about serious matters too-one would
have thought a light comedy was or
an dsomething funny was liable TO be
turned up at any minute. Nobody
laughed outright but some OF the
auditors looked as though they felt
Hk it.
me occasion OF this day OF sup
pressed joIlity was the racy divorce
suit of John S. Andrade against MS
very pretty wife. Andrade mixes up
a s. Correa. the young attorney, in
the unpleasantness. He claims tha1
Correa is something more than
"sweetheart" of his .unruly wife, Ade-
laide Andrade, and gives the young
LAWYER the very undesirable appella-
ton of a lothario, and 10 substantlate
his suspicion he brought into court
some characters known in dime no
wells as sleuth-hounds and in tact the
court room had very sleuthy appear
ance all day.
To start the divorce along nicely,
for a curtain raiser, Andrade went on
the witness stand himself. He tod
a tale that is rather too pathetic 70
really have to be true but he admits
that il is. He swore to his wnoie
complaint how the wife of the fond
moss of his heart loves another or at
least how she carried on as though
such is the case. Andrade is not
had looking fellow himself. He has
a full face, large eyes, and good
healthy complexion. 1t is not the
easiest thing in the world to explain
why such a gazelle-like and affection
ate creature as the gentle Adelaide
should refuse to love such gooo
looking man, and forsake him
for a man like Correa who isn''
half as handsome.
After his story of infidelity on the
part of his wife and how she had act
ed with ill decorum in her relations
to Correa, he left the story to others
to tell.
IF. Silva was forced into the case.
That is he became witness by the
fact. as he swore, that he was hired
as a sleuth to shadow the woman and
Correa. He talked with volubility
and readily. He said he followed the
loving couple for week or two ION
and on and once by eavesdropplns
climbing a fence and looking IN al
window. he saw them in fond EN-
brace. The couple grew tired of sit
ting in one place and they moved to
another. In so doing they sank Out
of sight of Silva, for the space below
the port mole, through which went his
eager glances, was rather high above
deck as it were, and the effect was
the lovers were out Of sight.

tire good faith.

Yes, did saw them there.
Silva gave much more grammatical
testimony and the comedy went on.
