Refused to Mary Her and She Obtained a Verdict
 lf sS5OO Damages
COURT REvERSES VERDICT
Holds That Her Affections Were Not Injured, as the Man Had a Living Wife and She Was Aware
 of That Fact.

St. Louis, November 25.-The United States Court of Appeals in reversing the decisions of the United States District Indian Territory Court of Appeals, which were in favor of Rose Pryor, who sued Samuel T. Davis. a wealthy merchant of the Cherokee Nation, for alleged breach of promise. decided today that common law marriages are legal.
 Miss Pryor, who is also a resident of the Cherokee Nation. was a member of the Davis household. As mistress of the houshold was a young woman known to Miss Pryor as Mrs. Davis. According to Davis, this woman was his wife with whom he had lived for upwards of twen- ty years When Rose Pryor was 61 years of age Davis was alleged to have eloped with her. but for some reason refused to marry her
 Miss Pryor considered her affections had been injured to the extent of $950O and filed suit for this amount and won in both the lower courts. She alleges that Davis had told her that he was not legally married to Mrs. Davis and that there was no legal objection to his mak- ing her his wife. Davis oontended that he was already married. hence he could not have made valid contract to be- come Miss Pryor's husband. In de- livering the opinion of the Appellate Court Judge Adams says:
 Marriage is a civil contract and may be made by any persons of different sexs competent to make such contract. While commonly entered into with cere- mony either civil or religious. 1t may be consummated without any ceremony. If 6 man and woman. in good faith agree to become husband and wife, and this agreement Is followed by a constant and notorious cohabitation the relation of husband and wife Is lawfully establish ed.
 It is held by the court that Rose Pry- or knew of Davis relations to Mrs. Davis and should not or could have therefore been deceived when he prom ised to marry her.

LiptOn Thinks Shamrock III Will Have Luck of the
 Three Leafed Shamrock
ENGLISH CHEER ROOSEVELT
At Banquet In Ills Honor Sir Thomas Lipton Says He Regrets "the Famous Old Mue"' Is Not
 On the Table.

London, November 25-"Should no one else challenge. I am willing and ready to consider making another attempt to lift the cup"
 This announcement was given out by Six Thomas Lipton at the banquet given at the Hotel Cecil In his honor tonight. which was attended by more than 400 guests.
 'It would never do.' added Sir Thomas. Ito give up when only pulse beat came between us and victory"
 The reception to the challenger for the Americas cup was marked with the greatest enthusiasm and all classes were represented at the banquet this evening. Lord Tweedmouth acted as chairman. and proposing the health of President Roosevelt, he referred to his versatility as a politician, statesman, sportsman and writer President Roosevelt's name was greeted with tremendous applause. although only few Americans were present.
 Sir Thomas Maintained the excellence of the Shamrock H.. and said that a wee bit of luck would have turned the tables. Tt was only a matter of a toss of the coin," he said We raced over a hundred miles and the decision was only a matter of seconds, which goes to show that we are justified in believing we can build boats to bring back the cup"
 While Sir Thomas paid glowing com pliments to the United States, he con- fessed his chagrin at being unable Ito put on the table the famous old mug.
 He offered both the Shamrocks as trial boats to any Britisher anxious to chal- lenge. and closed bis. rem arks with the declaration that he would be willing to make another attempt for the cup should no one else do so, and expressing his con- fidence that the third Shamrock would have the luck of the three leafed Sham rock.
 Lord Tweedmouth. proposing Sir Thomas health, said the yachtsm an 8 influence and sportsman-like conduct had done much to clear the mists of misun- derstandings between the two countries and paved the way to the Nicaraguan canal agreement
 We have shown the world" said Lord Tweedmouth, that we can have the end desired, one side granting concessions without disgrace and the other side ac- cepting these concessions without de- fiance."

ROUQUEBRUNE IS
 GREATLY EXCITED
PICTURESQUE OLD FRENCH TOWN GREATLY UPSET BY THE KILL
 ING OF ITS DEPUTY MAYOR BY M. BRIGLANIo.

New York, November 25.-A dispatch to the Herald from Mentone gives the following additional details concerning the shooting of several city officials by M. Orsini, one of the councillors:
 The shooting occurred at the Rouque- brune town council meeting. After a vio- lent discussion Orsini drew a revolver and fired at M. Briglanio. the Mayor who was dangerously wounded in the ab- domen. A second shot struck M. Sigaut the deputy mayor, who was mortally wounded and who died Sunday.
 The criminal was seized by a police man. but freed himself and sprang down the stairs. again firing his revolver and slightly wounding another councillor.
 The crowd outside scattered and Or sini escaped. In the narrow streets of Rouquebrune he met the brother of the Mayor and fired once more, wounding has probably crossed the Italian frontier.
 The picturesque old town is seething with excitement and the requiem mass celebrated for the deputy mayor was largely attended. Three physicians are in attendance on the Mayor on whom an operation will be performed at once.
 It supposed the motive for Orsini's con- duct was irritation regarding some mu- nicipal improvements opposite the Mayors private house. These necessitat- ed increased taxation and enhanced the value of the Mayors property.
 The murderer is a former chasseur employed at Monte Carlo. His wife has qlso disanpeared.
