STORY OF THE PLAY.

Let us gather up the threads of this
tragic drama, as far as II has come
out There was family miX-up.
which would do credit to the Newport
smart set MIR, BurdiCk was aware of
his wtfc's relations with Mr.. Pennel.
and discussed them freely with Mrs.
Paine, He didn't want to be too hard
on either, but welcomed the opportu.
nifty to get n divorce, in order that he
might marry Mrs Warren. whose
friend and Conidant Mrs. Paine was
lie wanted n general getting Of di-
vorccs, SO that Mr. Pencil could take
Mrs Burdick off his hand. and was
willing TO make any reasonable ar.
TangomCnt about the children. Mrs.
pennell was in the way OF this ar.
rangcmCnt, because she seemed to be
satisfied with her husband and To
have no second matrimonial project In
view Besides she had made trouble
between friends by telling MIR Burdlclt
of the misconduct of her husband with
his wife.
So the matter stood when Rurdict
sent away his wife and began his suit
for divorce. The mhoIe lot seem
queer enough to people with old fash.
toned ideas about personal honor and
the quick mortal forfeit gentlemen
were once accustomed tC exact as
readily MS they gave II for mortal of.
fences But Pencil seems to have
been the worst of bad lot. He was
satisfied with things as they were and
so was his wife He would neither let
Mrs. Burdck alone nor set himself
free to marry her. He resented all
Burdicks steps Of very moderate ag.
gression and whned about suicide II
exposure came to him.
Burdick was mysteriously killed

Indiana State Fair.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 14.-So
numerous and interesting are the dis
plays at the Indiana state fair which
opened today that 1t is difficult to pick
out any predominant feature, but II
any department may be said to excel
1t is that devoted to the live stock ex-
hibits. The exhibit Of live stock, par
ticularly Of fancy swine. is undoubted-
~ the best as well as the largest ever
seen In the state. The farming ma.
chinery department and the display
of dairy products are also worthy Of
special note. Altogether the fair this
year may be said to cater more than
heretofore to people from the farms
and smaller towns. The management
Is counting on q record-breaking at.
