Carrie E. Miller of LeominSter
Sues Miranda Miller Charging
That Defendant Had Malicious
Iy Accused Her of Drunkenness
DEFENDANTS ANSWER
GENERAL DENIAL OF CHARGE
As Arthur P. Rugg, Associate
Counsel for Defendant, Could
Not Be Present Next Week, the
Case Went Over by Mutual
Consent to December Term

Special to The Spy.
Fitchburg, Nov. 14.-The morning
session of the Superior Court was de-
voted to the hearing of the Clinton
ice case-Frazer ct al vs. Fuller ct
ais. The testimony introduced was to
show that Mr.. Fuller loaned to the
Martin Brothers money to build the
icehouse and to harvest their ice, but
that he was in no sense a member of
the firm. Miss Durkin, from whom
the Martins rented the land, testified
in relation to the line, etc. The case
was argued and will go to the jury
Friday morning.
The next case in order was Carrie
E. Miller VS.. Miranda Miller. This
is suit for Islander. Carrie E. Miller
reside in Leominster Carrie e. Miller
sues to recover 100000 She alleges
that Miranda Miller, the defendant, did
falsely and maliciously accuse the
plaintiff of the crime of drunkenness,
by saying, substantially, "She is a
drunkard" and II have seen her drunk
more than once since she has lived in
this house" She says the Islander was
published by the defendant in her
house at Leomnster on or about April
26, 1901.
The defendantss answer is a general
denial and assertion that if she did
say so, she believed it to be true; and
that if the words were not true, they
were uttered without malice, and
We're a privileged communication in
good faith, believing they were true
A. P. Rugg of Worcester, associate
counsel for the defendant. Is engaged
for next week in connection with the
grade crossing commission hearing in
Worcester, and cannot be present. By
mutual agreement, the case has, there
fore, been continued for hearing to the
December term, at Worcester.
Because of the sudden change in the
Miller case, there is a collapse in the
list of jury cases, and court cases will
quickly be in order Judging from
present indications, the ;uries will not
come back next week, and the session
will probably end by Thursday Of next
week.
After the noon recess, the court
again took up divorce cases. Cyrus
StockWell of Royalston sued for d.
vorce from his wife, Eta, on the
charge of adultery. Mr.. Stockwell is
man about Is years old. He mar
ried Eta, who is about 25 years old,
in 1884. She lived with him about
year and half. She left him in 1885.
The last he saw of her was in the
Fitchburg Jail, where she was serving
sentence for adultery The record
of the conviction was introduced. The
court thought the aged spouse was
entitled to his freedom, and cut the
nuptial knot.
Judge Bell is taking up two or three
divorce cases daily. Just before the
close of this afternoons session the
court took up the case of Celina st.
Peter of Winchendon VS.. Luke st.
Peter. She alleges desertion. The
parties We're married in Canada, in
1874, and Luke absented himself in
October. 1896 and since then she has
not seen him. There is no response,
and a decree will be granted tomorrow.

COURT LIBRARY AT
FITCHBURG PLACED IN ORDER

Fitchburg, Nov. 1.-THE court library
at Fitchburg has been in somewhat de-
moralized condition for some time. E. P.
Pierce, who was raised to the Superior
Court bench about a year ago, had been
librarian, but since his elevation the
books have not been cared for. The
county commissioners engaged E. w
Hildreth of the firm of Little, Brown &
Co., Boston, to rearrange the books place
them in codified order and make a new
and complete catalogue. The books have
all been inspected and a catalogue will be
made 1t once. Walter Perley Hall OF the
firm of Baker & Hall has been appointed
court librarian. The members of the bar
will greatly appreciate the new arrange
ment.

"a NIGHTMARE COMEDY"
BY DAN M'AY0Y,

One lobster and two long sausages
with liquid Accomplishments, almost
broke up the home of Daniel McAvoy
an actor, yesterday marning. and Incl
dentally came very nearly sending him
to a padded room at Twenty sixth street
and First avenue.
McAvoy, who tries nightly to amuse
the audience at the New York theater,
was induced, much against his will, to
take supper with some friends Monday
night, and the festivities lasted for sew
eral hours. The actor reached his fiat
at about the same time the milkman
called. Remembering past experiences
he removed his shoes and crept to his
room, where his wife was peacefully
sleeping.
McAvoy feared he might awaken her,
and as the supper was beginning to get
the better of his mental apparatus. he
rolled under the bed. He was asleep
before he stopped rolling but a few mo-
ments later every tenant of the house
was aroused by yell, which they were
sure emanated from the lungs Of a
maniac.
Mrs. McAvoy was more frightened
than any of the others, as the noise was

1T WAS ALL A CASE OF
MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

Gus PiXley, acrobatic comedian, came
so near being arrested yesterday after
noon that he has discarded cuffs because
they suggest to him the steel wristlets
in vogue with minions of the law. 1t
was all a case of mistaken identity, but
the shock has left it's effects.
Consequent upon the mistake Pixley
has decided to forever eschew the pale
green walking suit that has been his
pride during the present theatrical sea-
son.
The green suit, a silk hat and Pixley
were in front of the Hotel Cadillac yes
terday afternoon. Frank Baker, the
atrical manager was also present. Four
newsboys clustered around Pixley's
clothes, listening to the story of his sue
cesses with The Man + ON Mexico"
company.
A sidewalk pedestrian looked Pixley
over carefully.
Say, young fellow" he remarked,
"you're the man l have been searching
for: "how about that little matter Of
board bill up in Geneva
Search me, answered Pixley.
I'll have the law on you, that's what
III do. you young villain said the
stranger.
A passing policeman was drawn into
the discussion. The stranger, who said
he was Theron Townsend, proprietor Of
the Eagle House in Geneva, accused Pix
lev of having departed from his hosiery
forgetting to pay board bill OF 70 cents
and an account Of $40 for extras.
Il wouldn't care so much, hang you,
continued the indignant landlord, IF you
hadn't taken some of my towels, too.
That's the cussedest part of you troup-
ers''
Say, what do you think I amp asked
Pixley, becoming nervous.
you're Teller named Stevens" an
ewered the irate stranger I'D never
forget you, because there's only one suit
Of clothes in the world like yours"
Pixley heaved sigh of relief, but then
was suddenly plunged in gloom.
mot to know me, my man, argues
yourself unknown. I am Augustus Pix
ley, comedian he said.
Long they argued. When Pixley had
shown Townsend a number Of letters
addressed to him under his name and
had gone thoroughly into his ancestry
the landlord was convinced. He apollo
gized and walked away.
"Whewi" uttered Pixley, wiping his
brow. Suppose that had been the pro-
prieor of the Nestor House?'
Later he donned suit of dark blue
and pink necktie.-New York Tele-

Alejandrino was probably the favorite
of the people, because of his scholarly
ability. and his moderation in carrying
ON the war. Tinio is of Chinese descent
and a very successful soldier.
Cables. the last of the trio. is the only
one who has had the prudence to keep
cut of reach. and now proclaims himself
dictator. He is a typical Malay bandit
with a good degree of cunning, and y
thirst for blood that would tit we'll with
the Apache Indian or the head hunting
pirates that founded the Malay race.
For his cruelty to prisoners. his utter
disregard of the people / assumes to
rule. and his many military crimes. he
is to be put beyond the pale OF the terms
of the amnesty offered by the United
States to all ordinary rebels. and must
stand trial if captured. The law pur-
posely excluded all who had committed
crimes against humanity and ordinary
military practice.
Cables is will-o'-the- wisp fighter
who has been quite successful in am
bushing and numbering in cold blood
small parties of troops and Transfers
who wander away from the main
armies. He is probably the most prom
trent rebel still in the field. Without
much education. he has native cunning
and determination that has given him
a place of influence. His enemies, those
of his own race. fear him too much to
interfere seriously in his plans. and the
Philippines may be cursed by his BAN
ditti until he comes within reach of an
American sharpshooter.
