ground of alleged bigamy and adultery
of Earl Russsll with Mrs. somerville.
The suit wass not defended. The Count
cps Russell in. the witness box testified
Il the unhappy relations with her hus-
band from Ire nrsi. She sketciled the
various proceedings from the separation
and then for the restitution of conjugaI
rights and said she was finally obliged
10 go or the stage because her husband
did not support her. The countess knew
nothing whatever Of the earl's suit for
divorce in Nevada and HE subsequent
marriage until the facts We're am
iGounced in the London newspapers. The

from the fact that he did not talk much

COL. CoRL1ss' VIEWS.
Denver Man, Just From Philippines,
Talks of Aguinnldo,s Capture.

Talk 9 of Aguinaldo'sC Capture.
Denver. Col. March 2s.-Col. A. w.
Corliss, who returned last week from
the Philippines, was highly pleased to
hear of the capture OF the rebel chief
tain Aguinaldo But 1t would have
been better if mule had kicked the
little upstart to death, said the colonel.
The question now is. what will we do
with him? do not consider the cap-
ture of Aguinaldo the most important
thing that could have happened, tho 1T
may have the effect OF sending all the
rebels tumbling into surrender as fast
as they can. Gen. Trias, who surren-
dered a few days ago, was more import
ant to my mind than any OF the other
fellows. The Filipinos have come to
appreciate that the hero who hides out
in the bushes and keeps away from the
front as much as possible is not much
of hero. and Aguinaldo has lost his
old time prestige. Now hope to hear
of the capture or surrender of Gen.
Caillies. He has more influence and
following than Aguinaldo had. When he
is captured or surrenders llostilities vii
