er Ceremony Was No Disso lved

reached today in Chancery Chambers be-
fore Vice Chancellor Pitney when Coun-
selor Alexander Simpson presented his
argument why his client, John Burck-

freed from the matrimonial bonds he had
contracted with Emile Burckhardt.
Burckhardt claims since his marriage
that his wife was formerly married to one
Frederick Hoeger and that that ceremony
has never been legally dissolved. He,
therefore, asks that his marriage be an
nulled.
Senator r. S. Hudspeth appeared for
Mrs. Burckhardt. who admits living with
Hoeger, but denies that they were ever
married. There was another husband
somewhere in the background but she had
never heard from him in years and sup
posed him to be dead.

Mayor Yesterday

Messrs. J. J. Llssner and Bruiser
Brown were arraiged before the may

limits.
1t is safe to say that the next one
arraigned on the charge of fast driv-
ing viii be fined.

THE FULL DINNER PAIL

Did you ever hear of Georgie from
 Rlande, Who scatters his affections with his
 worthy right hand? He is so nice that he makes my heart
 quail. Oh, don't he look handsome with his
 full dinner pail? Now Georgie's a man whom the girls
 all like. They say he's a darling and clear out
 of sight. Out of sight he may be and probably
 stale; But he'll show up at six with his full
 dinner pail. Oh Georgie, oh Georgie, oh Georgie,
 from Blande, You had better think twice before you
 make the grand stand; And in making your stand, be not too
 shore" That you will land the young man at
 the Copper Queen store. Of course you might land him, and
 again, you might fail, And get all the wind knocked out of
 your sail. There's a parent in town whom the
 gossips assail, For objecting to boys who carry a
 pail; And if you should cross him you'll get
 rode on a rail, And the bottom kicked out of your full
 dinner pail. Now Fanny's all right, if only, for
 once, She handed our Georgie a very nice
 bunch At the Thanksgiving ball. Oh, ain't
 it a shame That she scratched his dear name
 from her dainty program? And in scratching his name, we hol-
 low and hail; For he is the man with the full dinner
 pail.

KIT cARsoN's SON DIES.
Was Bitten By Spider Near Los
 Angeles.

Aged Sam Carson was found dead early Wednesday morning in his hut far up in Santa Monica canyon. He had been bitten by spider, says the Los Angeles Times.
 It was a remarkable and romantic career that came to such an inglorious end. Carson was about 83 years old, and claimed to be a son of the re- nowned scout, Kit" Carson. For many years the old man had lived at the head of Rustic Canon, with his horses and dogs for company.
 Carson cultivated a small hatch of ground and occasionally cut a load of wood and brought it into town to sell Though living like a hermit. he was well known to persons using the canyon Tor route into the mountains Before taking up his abode in the mountains and in his early years the stories are that Carson had a most picturesque career as pioneer gold-hunter, Indian
 fighter and adventurer.
 Added infirmities of his great age had of late made the old fellows con dition more miserable. Philanthropic women from this city became interest ed in his case, and for some time had been contributing to his support. It was by these good Samaritans that his death was discovered this morning, a party having called to contribute a few delicacies to his meager larder.
 The old man was stretched out on his bed, and had evidently been dead several hours. Dr. P. s. Lindsey, the local health oficer, who had attended him previously. pronounced his death due to blood poisoning. the result of a bite from a Spider while he slenf There will be no inquest, and the re- mains will be buried in the canyon at the scene of his last solitary days
