OBTAINED HER DIVORCE.
Mrs. Brisben Walker, Jr., Nee Miss
Belle Brandt Won Her Case,

Savannahians have followed with some
interest the proceedings in the Walker
Brandt divorce case in New York Mrs
Walker was Miss Belle Brandt, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Carl L. Brandt, was
well known and popular among the
younger society people of Savannah be-
fore she went North to live, and her mar
riage to Mr. Walker.
Mrs. Walker has been granted total
divorce, her husband making no defense.
Judge keogh, who granted the divorce,
made several stipulations, among
them being the following ones:
First, that Isobel B. Walker
can marry again, but that it shall be I'M
lawful for the defendant to marry until
she Is actually dead; second, that the
care, custody and education of Isobel
Strother Walker (the infant child be
awarded to her mother the plaintiff, the
defendant to have the right to visit the
child once in each month; third, that
the defendant pay the plaintiff for her
support and maintenance and as perma-
nent alimony $3.50 2 year, such alimony,
however, to cease in the event of her re-
marriage, and that he also pay to the
plaintiff for the maintenance support and
education of her child, until she attains
the age of 81 years, the further sum of
500 a year, each of which are to be paid
in equal monthly instruments.
Mr. Walker is an expert automobilst
and golf player. On Aug. %, 1895, Miss
Brandt met Mr. Walker on a New York
Central train by agreement. Her mother
and several other friends were with her,
as they all intended to go on a shopping
tour. When the Grand Central Station
was reached the couple excused them
selves and eloped. They were married
at Westwood, N. J.
The referee took considerable testimony
in the case. Mrs. Walker testified that she
had lived in Hastings all her married life,
and that she had first heard of her hus-
bands acts in August, 1900. The testi-
mony further showed that Mr.. Walker
had been living under an assumed name
with another woman in a boarding house
at No. 81 Newbury street. Boston,

RETAIL MERCHANTS SAY "No."
Refused the Clerks Petition for Early
Closing Saturday Nights.

Closing Saturday Nights.
A special meeting of the Retail Mer-
chants Association was held yesterday
afternoon to consider the petition of the
clerks asking that the stores of all the
members of the association be closed Sat
urday nights at 10 o'clock, instead of II,
as is now the case. After much delfbera-
ton the merchants found it impractical
Bile and so notified the committee of
clerks in the following letter:
"Messrs. Mace Ensel, ]. H. Wittsehen,
and Max Lehwald, ommittee-Gentle-
men: At a special meeting held this day
for the consideration of your proposition
relative to the uniform Saturday night
closing hour, beg to say that l have been
instructed to advise you that it was
found impractical and the Retail Mer-
chants Association cannot consider said
proposition. Yours very truly,
"Sig Gardner, Secretary"
Though this communication gives a set
back to the movement the clerks are not
discouraged and will not give up the eff
fort for early closing without another eff
fort to bring the merchants to their way
of thinking. They are the more encour-
aged to keep up the agitation as some of
the most prominent merchants in the as
ISOLATION have already expressed them
selves in favor of the project.

A CLEVER SHOW OF MAGIC.
Master Lawrence Semon Entertains
Crowd Mt Conservatory Hall.

Master Lawrence Semon Entertains
Crowd Mt Conservatory Hall.
Little Lawrence Semon, a juvenile pres
digitator, assisted by Miss Stella Cohen,
Miss Lucille Fitch and Miss Birdie Null
berg, gave most interesting and enjoy
able entertainment at Conservatory Hall
last night. The entertainment was at
tended by a crowd that not only literally
filled the house, but lined up al the win
dows, anu took in the performance from
the outside, because there was no further
room on the inside. The programme con-
sisted of:
Magic, Master Lawrence Semon.
Recitation, "A Second Trial. Miss Stel-
la Cohen.
Picaninny dance, Little Miss Fitch.
Song, selected, Master Lawrence Semon.
Recitation, "Alviro," Miss Birdie Muhl-
berg.
Punch and Judy, Master Lawrence Sc
mon.
Master Semon is an unusually clever
boy, and some of his work would have
done credit to much Older professionals.
Not only did he, in the first part of the
evening, entertain the crowd for over half
an hour with all sorts of clever feats
with cards and the usual paraphernaiia
of the sleight of hand performer, but he
sang we'll and, in the Punch and Judy
show, proved himself a clever ventrilo-
quist.
Both the elocutionis'ts scored hits and
were forced to give recall pieces, Miss
Cohen reciting And She Was His" and
Miss Muhlberg, Kiplings Rivals" Lit
tie Miss Fitch, as clever and dainty as
usual, so pleased the spectators in her
dance that she was forced to repeat it.
Before the programme was concluded
PROF. Leo w. Mehrtens announced that
he had made a personal investigation Of
the case of a mother and six children
who are now in the county Jail because
destitute; that he thought it a case most
deserving of charity, and that he had ar
ranged for the evenings performance to
be repeated tonight, when no tickets Will
be issued, but persons that attend may
give at the door such an amount as they
can afford, or care to donate to so worthy
a cause.
1t was announced also that Master Sc
mon will give a performance of the Punch
and Judy show tomorrow afternoon at
the home of Mrs. c. E. Suits.
The music that accompanied the
sleight of hand performance as well as tn :
accompaniments of the songs, and the
dance music also, was played by Mrs. H.
A. Suits.

. SCOTCH NELL FELL.
Debauched White Woman Did Not
Keep Promise to Evangelist.

Among the prisoners committed to jail
yesterday from Police Court, was Nellie
Wright, alias Scotch Nell, white wo-
man, well known in police circles. Nellie
had been charged with the usual crime
of drunkenness and was given the usual
sentene of thirty days-a sentence that
she has been receiving with marked reg
ularity for several years. Nellie was only
released from jail Wednesday evening
and she was arrested a few hours later
after she had accumulated large sized
Jag.
The most unfortunate part of the story
is that Nellie had announced her reforma-
ton. She was an inmate of the county
Jail on Sunday, when Rev. Sam Jones ad-
dressed the prisoners The debauched white
woman was an attentive listener and gave
the evangelist her hand and promised to
do the proper thing after she had served
her time. Those who are acquainted with
Nellie know that her promises are like
pie crust, but 1t was hoped that Mr..
Jones had made a lasting impression on
what he would term a whisky soaked
