applying for a divorce. He denied that
 he ever had mentioned the subject of
 marriage to her until she had secured
 a divorce from MT. Bison.
 Caroline Beardsley was the first wit
 ness this morning for the defense. She | testified to a conversation in which 1 MT. Bison made statement giving the 1 reasons for his separation from his ! wife
 MT. Anderson, the defendant in the case, was then called to the stand, to 1 resume the testimony he began last Friday. His first statement concerned
 the time he first learned of Mrs. Elson $ 1 departure to North Dakota for the pur- pose of getting a divorce.
 | MT. Anderson denied that he ever
 paid any bills for Mrs. Bison in Da- f Eota, that he ever asked for any con- 1 nected rooms al hotel that he never mentioned the subject of marriage to Mrs. Elson prior to September 27, 1898. 1 MT Anderson was still on the wit ness stand when court adjourned short | ly before o'clock yesterday afternoon. During the course of her examination by MI. Chase, counsel for her former husband, Mrs. Elson, the plaintiff in this case, she said that she had not loved MT. Bison for a long time before she left him. She said also that she did not love MT. Anderson before she was divorced from MT Bison but that she
 loved him now because he was so good
 to Ter
 Nil. Chase showed her a letter which she acknowledged having written to MT. Bison before she left him and while
 he was away from home. MT. Chase called her attention to portion of the letter which he did not read and asked her why she wrote that if she did not love MT. Elson. She said that she wrote
 it to draw his attention to her and to keep him away from other women. She said that she wanted to do this on ac- count of the children

She said that MT. Ander- sons courtship of her lasted only dur ing these five days and that MT, Bison had couted her only two weeks before she married him.

The Rev Dr. Lines of St. Pauls church and Rev A. J.

 delegation of the Railroad r. M. C. A.,

If 'To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die" surely the remembrance of this dear soul will long remain pre- cious memory to those whose privilege it was to call her friend Born at South Shields England, on Christmas Eve, 1S10 Sarah Taylor came with her parents to Quebec at the age of seven years, living there during her childhood and the one year of her married life to William Shadgett of Southampton, England, who died in 1884 Married to Edward B. Barber in 1887, her life till 1854 was spent in Richmond, Va, and Charleston $. G., when she came to this city where she has since lived. The keynote of this beloved woman's long life was unselfishness, her hos pitality was unbounded as many now living will testify, and though all of her own generation are long gone, yet there are many of the third and even of the fourth, to call her blessed as the birthday gifts from friends in England, in Quebec and in Charleston $. C., yearly bear witness, as well as from those nearer, and from little children also. Dying of no disease. the going out of the spark of life was very grad ual, ending almost imperceptibly in that sleep from which none ever wake to weep" We give Thee hearty thanks for the good example of this thy ser want who having finished her course in faith, doth now rest from her labor

IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
JUDGE CALLAHAN NOT TO BE RE-
 TNSTATED.
Cases' Memorandum A Anderson Teatl- hes-Motions Decided Yeuerday- Com mo Pleas and City Court Cases.

The application of eX-Judge David Callahan for reinstatement to practice as an attorney in Connecticut, was de- nied by Judge William S. Case, of the the matter week ago Judge Case takes the ground that the question be- fore the court was not whether Mr. Callahan had suffered sufficient pun ishment, but whether the conditions have so changed as to justify his re- instatement. Then Judge Case de- clares that to admit MT. Callahan at tins time means in effect, a reversal of the Bar association's disbarment proceedings. The decision of Judge Case included the following
 Tn all cases which concern the com mon good of the courts and the bar the court should pay proper respect to the feelings and opinions of the bar. The expressed wish of any considera- ble number of the bar members in a matter of vital consequence to the whole body must command serious at tention. On the other hand, the courts responsibility in a matter of the char acter involved here is not necessarily measured or controlled by such express sion. Its primary duty is public one.
 Whether MT. Callahan has already suffered an adequate punishment is a question not primarily involved. The only question is whether the condi- tions have so changed since dis barrment as to justify his reinstate- ment. It seems that there can be but one answer to this question if the ultimate interests of the bar are to furnish the controlling test. The ap- plication is refused"

QUARTZ CASE CONTINUED.

Elizabeth Quartz, wife of Frank I Quartz. of 1t4 Nicoll street. who was arrested Monday afternoon by Detec- tive Ward an warrant charging cru city to children, was continued until Saturday. Her husband had been ar rested during the morning at the sug- gestion of Judge Dow for the same of fense. They were released on S20O bonds for appearance in the city court yesterday morning but when court had adjourned they had not put in an ap- pearance. They were discovered in the corridor later and said that they had been waiting for half an hour David E. Fitzgerald, who had been retained by them as counsel, told them rather sharply that the corridor was not the place they were told to report and left the building with them.
 When the cases were called MT. Fitz- gerald asked for a continuance until Saturday and said that he did not be- lieve that under the circumstances Judge Dow would consider himself qualified to hear the case, He there- fore would ask that Judge Bishop hear it. Judge Dow replied that he agreed.
