court with a marriage license and asked him
to marry them. They presented also at

days before been submitted to the supreme

turned them away and refused to perform
the ceremony. They went back to Fort
Dodge and the next day were married by a
minister. The woman had secured judg
ment for $40, 900 against the man in district
court and he had appealed it. The state
ment which she signed was to the effect
that she had been induced by her attorneys
to commence the action and prosecute 1t to
a finish, but she now wished to drop it.
She also said thai her attorneys we're to
get half the judgment, or $1,000. Today her
attorney, Senator Healey, Hled with the SUI

mission of the case and enter up afirma-

there will be nothing left for Anderson bu,
to pay tho judgment to his present wife

was made on the ground that since the

TRIBUTE TO ADRIAN HEWITT
Andrew Carnegie Speaks Of the Virtue, Of
Lamentsd Citizen.
TYPE OF NOBLE AMERICAN MANHOOD
Meeting T. Held In New York Chamber
of Commerce IN MemOry of
Former Mayor and Distin-
Euished PhiIanthropist.

Z YORK, Feb. "a memorial meet
ing was held this afternoon in the Chamber
Of Commerce to pay tribute to the life and
work Of Abram Hewitt. the philanthropist
and hnancier.
Tn principal speaker was Andrew
Carnegie, who said that both the good and
evil that men do live after them. To
which class the subject of his remarks be-
longed to there could be no doubt.
Mr.. Carnegie said in part:
Mr.. President and Gentlemen: We meet
today In commemorative service of a fei-
low member, a great and good man.
Men who attain prominence among their
FELLOWS as he did are of two classes, those
OF whom II Is said at death, the evil that
men do lives after them, and those of
whom W. say vita holy fervor, the good
men do lives after them
The evil survives after death in the first
class because Il predominated their life.
These labOred in their day for ignoble ends
by ignoble means.
Members OF this class are found In every
held Of human activity I'm public and pri-
vate life. in the professions as well as in
stood for what was popular because that
led TO the elevation of self, not for what
was right and beneficial.
The end sought, not the advance OF city.
state, nation or people. but personal tri-
umph. Intercourse with others bred no
esteem, no friendship, much less affection.
When life goes with such, all goes. Moth
even those who followed and co-operated
with them I'm life are dumb, for such regard
can rest only upon the virtues, the per-
sonal qualities which win approval.
Omaha daily bee., 1903-02-06

It Is needless TO say to which class be
longed the subject of our deep and affec-
tionate homage of today since IL Is i'm
possible hat there could have terminated
in our hearts the longing to give express
sion to our feelings here I'm the Chamber
of Commerce, the theater of much of the
invaluable public service of our late la"
mented friend and fellow member, unless
he had been one OF that class for whom
we can boldly claim the good that men
DO lives after them
If all were asked to name the citizen of
New York. or even of our vast country,
who most fully represented In his own per-
son all that citizenship implies, we have
this to console us even In the immediate
presence of our ~irreparable loss, there
would be substantial agreement In the re-

Failed to MuIct Railroad.

The supreme court today passed on the
low law which requires railroad companies
to redeem tickets sold and not used, de-
Gliding that unless a company fixes a time
limit for presentation of such unused tick
cts there is no time limit and they must
redeem at any time on ten days notice.
o. ]. Jolly purchased three tickets at Rock
well City of the Milwaukee road, which
were not used. He afterwards presented
them for redemption and 1t was refused.
The court holds that he was entitled to re-
cover what he paid. But as to sixteen
other tickets which he purchased soon after
and on which he sued, confessing that he
never intended to use the tickets. but that
they were bought so as to make a case
against the company, the court holds that
he wes not entitled to -'ecover on them. The
Iowa law provides for return of the money
paid, and in case of refusal to redeem he
may collect 500 penalty. The court does
not decide whether the penalty should have
been attached In every one OF the three
cases. y On PA .ua
