comparatively a stranger in these parts,

charged with bigamy.
Kirby is a young man and has been
here helping furnish entertainments for
millinery openings. The complaint was
sworn to by W. NJ. Pennington, who
lives near Pomona, this county, who is
father of one of the women to whom
Kirby is married.
Kirby does not deny that he is mar
ried to both the daughters of Mr.. PEN
nington and to Miss Lillian Hittel of
Benton Harbor, Mich He gives as an
excuse for the latter marriage that he
was drunk at the time the ceremony was
performed and that Miss Hitte1 was a
member of the league of eligibles who
provide a dowry upon marriage This
led him to marry the woman. He lived
with her only two days, he says Mr..
Kirby is the husband of more women
than these two.
