PARIS Stirred by Remarkable Letter
From Nine. Boussae to
Spouse.

Paris, July 9-All Paris is astir oy-
e. the suit of Nine. Catulle Mendes,
wife of the critic and dramatist
against NJ Boussac, her former hus-
band, which lays bare woman's
heart as It is seldom seen. A letter
written before their separation and
which was cited in court forcibly sug-
gests the mental agonies of two peo-
pie married but not mated. Following
are some passages from the letter:
My Dear Louis: There was so wide
a gulf between us in temperament and
education that great concessions must
have been made under any circum-
stances. You were intelligent enough
to understand it had you not been
blinded by the most profound selfish
ness. | have begged and duplicated
you for some life, some distraction.
When | went sometimes to Paris
and when we were engaged you prom
ised / should go each MONTH paid
for It by how many scenes and sor-
rows?
You thought l would resign myself
All, well, no; I do not resign myself,
If you wanted a wife Of lAat sort you
should have chosen either a very
pious one. ready TO lend herself TO all
sacrifices, because she had some su-
preme hopes, OF a very ugly or very
old one. TO whom life promised moth
ing. Bat you have wanted wife well
raised, accustomed TO society (for
what reason, my GodD and elegant
You should have given her the life
you promised and that she had a right
TO expect OF you and not have replaced
II by sermons dictated by your SUI
preme egotism.
In the course OF the letter the wife
proposes that II her husband will per
init her some social life, If he will
allow her 10 receive her friends even
as he receives his. she will continue "a
live with him. The husband consent
ed to her conditions, but they were
soon broken and Nine Boussae ap
plied for ana received a divorce.

RIGHTS RESTORED BY DIVORCE.
Court Frees an Illinois Widow From
Matrimonial Tangle.
Special to Daily Leader.

Special to Daily Leader.
Harrisburg. lll., July Sin the
Wayne county circuit court few
days ago there was placed on record
iae fact that Nancy =. Heritage had
been granted a divorce from John
Heritage. on the ground of desertion.
hut underneath this statement lies an
interesting story.
Previous to the war Mrs. Heritage
was married to Silas Williamson. At
ter their marriage he entered the army
and was killed while fighting for his
country at Shiloh. The widow drew
a pension for awhile, and then mar
ried a man by the name of Clevengor,
who died, leaving one son. In the
course of time the widow married John
Heritage. They lived happily, as far
a. known, to the public, on a farm
near Mount Erie
One day. twenty-seven years ago,
Mr. Heritage. who was working for a
neighbur, hitched up the neghbor's
team and drove to Clay City to DO mill
ing both for himself and his neigh
Dor Both gTists were delivered at the
mill. The horses we're fed at the rear
c. the wagon and Mr.. Heritage ate q
lunch at restaurant. After noon he
hitched up, drove to the mill and got
both grists, drove back downtown and
hitched the horses to the rack. From
that time all trace o2 him has been
lcst After the horses had stood hitch
ed a day ana a night some one cared
for them until the owner came in
search of his team and wagon.
Mrs Heritage mourred her husband
as dead, and by economy and hart
work has made living. She is nov
growing old, and being the widow o
soldier Williamson, has applied to be
reinstated on the pension rolls. Th'
pension department. being particular
about such matters, naturally inquired
for evidence of Mr.. Heritage's death
While the widow felt sure of her hus
bands death, no proof could be made
and the only thing to do was to OBJ
tain divorce on the ground of deser
tion. Copies of all the papers in tn
case have been forwarded to Wash
ington, and now, after remaining TO
twenty-seven years as the widow .
Mr. Heritage, she will be reinstate'
nthe pension rolls as the widow .

see has been somewhat cyerestimated' aud
that In Texas and other States more or less
underestimate. With the result that for
the cotton belt as whole there has been
an undefestimation Of yield per acre.
Adjustments have been made TO bring the
department estimates into reasonable con
tormlty with the report Of the census.
The next result was an addition Of about
$4,000 acres to the estimate to the area
planted last year.
This addition raises the estimate OF the
area planted for ioo2.o3 to about 27,sTs,ooo
acres. or 1900 less than the revised area
for last year. There is reported decrease
In acreage amounting to per cent
in North Carolina, 40 per cent in
South Carolina, per cent In Georgia,
per cent in Alabama. 4-loths OF per cont
