chamber where the young woman lis
restrained. After long interview he
announced to the sorrowing mother
that her daughters mind was unbal-
anced, and advised her immediate SUBJ

Miss Josephine was closely questioned
and she readily answered. She admit
ted THAT her love for 1.-THE brother-in-
law was as strong as ever, but Stated
THAT she did not contemplate rejoining
him unless he got Dakota divorce
She would not admit THAT what she
had done was wrong, and declared
