BANKING FIRMS LONG SEARCH.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct 1..-While she lay
dying in the poorhouse, a large banking
firm was searching for Mrs. Mary Minlch
to place $4,000 In her hands. For eight
long years the search for her was con-
tinued. and when II was ended last night
she had been dead nearly a year
II was the last blow struck by fate AT
the aged lady, who once a belle OF this
city, reared i'm affluenece. suffered many
hard blows and died in the poorhouse.
The fortune which would have eased her
last year of their pain was left by Ru-
dolp Bach. a bookbinder of Brooklyn, who
died there Nov. 27. 1893. without leaving
a will.
The banking firm Of Ladenburg, Thai
man & Co, OF New York, became admin
istrator OF the estate, and began the
search for Mrs Minich. who was the next
OF kin. No trace OF her was found during
many years, and IL was not until Few
weeks ago that a clew came from distant
relative and was traced 20 this city last
night, where information was asked OF
Poor Director Louis Tisch.
He was able TO furnish proof that the
old lady died Nov. 25, 1900. at the poor
house In this county. Her career was an
eventful one.
She married Or. William Minich, one OF
the prominent physicians OF this city.
He was reputed 10 be we'll 10 do. but when
he died 80 years ago II was found he lett
nothing.
His widow had 10 work for living, and
she becams housekseper for Jacob Mat
thtss. a famous roadhouse keeper, who
had a place on the mountain known as
Seven Mile Jake's'.
20 years ago he was murdered. Mrs.
Minich said she was married 90 him ana
claimed a third OF the estate. but the
courts would not grant the claim.
Then she gradually drifted. until in 1893,
the same year she became heir 10 the
Bach estate she went 20 the poorhouse
and died there last fall aged s6 years. A
family named Bach, scattered through
this valley, will now probably inherit the
money.

MARRIED
A Man WITH
CORK LEG.
Brooklyn Girl We'd at a Mo-
meni's Notes and is Now
Rspsntlng.

New York, Oct. dolly Nicholson has
not seen her husband since her marriage
early Thursday morning. She is deeply
perpexed over the situation in which she
finds herself and would welcome any
means OF extrication.
Dolly Nicholson lives at No. IA Lori
mer street, Brooklyn. and was married
during the early hours Of Thursday to a
man whose real name she does not know
and who wears cork leg.
Her annoyance is augmented by the fact
that she is engaged TO marry another
man .aext Thursday and can hardly see
her way clear until the first ceremony
has been annulled
Her embarrassment Is due to mo-
ment's heedlessness.
During the summer she had spent many
evenings az Bergen Beach. and last We'd
nesday night was one OF the gayest OF the
dancers at Nierstein's hall.
STRANGELY NET HER FATE.
She was accompanied by Frank Jones
and Harry Girard. clifford Payne Jack
son, the man with the cork leg, had also
joined the party.
Miss Nicholson seemed to approve Of him
although his dancing was badly marred
by the tic tendencies Of his cork leg.
When Miss Nicholson was ready 20 start
home she elected MIR. Jackson her escort,
and the two started of together.
That Mr.. Jackson was an earnest wcoer
Is demonstrated by the fact that an hour
later Miss Nicholson and he were hunting
for minister.
They decided 20 enlist the services of the
Rev. Paul II. Jubelt OF the Zion Lutheran
church. at No. i6 Locust street. Flatbush.
DR.. Jubelt was reused out OF bed and at
tired In a dressing gown united the hasty
pair.
Then Mr. and Mrs. Jackson started for
Miss Nicholsons home. but while Mr..
Jackson was purchasing a cigar, Mrs.
Jackson deserted him and took the first
car she could catch. leaving her husband

LOST HER HUSBAND
Since that time she has been engaged in
trying to locate her husband. The adj

lie Is said 10 have been frequently at
Bergen -Reaeh-during -the-sttnfmef. bat
has not been there since his hasty mar
riage.
In the meantime Mrs. Jackson. nee
Nicholson, is greatly worried over the
fact that she is To be married on Thurs
day next TO a young man from New
York. Or. Jubelt says that while he has
kept no record OF the marriage, he re-
members that the names on the certificate
were Jackson and Nicholson. and that the
ceremony was as binding as though per-
formed i'm church before a thousand
friends and relatives.
Miss Nicholson. as she still prefers 20
call herself will take steps 10 have the
marriage annulled. but as she is twenty
two years old there seems 90 be no
remedy save suit for divorce In the or
dnary way.
Certain IL Is that next Thursdays we'd
ding will have 20 be delayed for a
time at least.
