CHICAGO MAID
PROMISES HAND
TO CALIFORNIAN
BY Sally Sharp.

The predicted has happened, thereby
affirming the excellent judgment Of
men Of the West-Miss Cora Kirk, the
dashing Chicagoan. has been won-and
been won by a Californian, Paul Clag-
stone of the Southland. After the
Royal Nibs" affair last night Miss
Kirk held a miniature salon of con-
gratulatory friends, the betrothal
possessing the fascinating prelude of a
fast and furious courtship
Miss Kirk is a girl of fine manner and
style. the possessor of rare Titan hair,
and wears her gowns with distinction.
Her father is famously rich, even for
Chicagoan, and has bestowed upon the
daughter all the mental emoluments
of the rich. She has long been the
close friend Of Mrs. Francis Carolan,
also Of Chicago, and has been visiting
the latter at Burlingame.
1t was while sojourning at Del Monte
that Miss Kirk met Mr.. Clagstone, who
was a conspicuous figure in the polo
tournament, making a very clever
record with his little mount
Mr.. Clagstone is best known in the
southern part of the State, where he
and his mother, IIrs. Morrison, are
identified with the exclusive set at
Riverside.
The date of the wedding has not
been divulged. but II is surmised that
IT cannot be far away-so importunate
has been the courtship.
Now that Miss Kirk has promised
her hand to a Californian, we shall
possess within our borders three of the
greatest heiresses of Chicago - Mrs.
Jack Casserly, who was Miss Cecilia
Cudahy, and Mrs. Frank Carolan, who
was a Pullman, having already sue
cumbed to the allurements of Cali
fornia. 1t would be interesting to hear
the opinion OF the Chicago beaux at
this latest detection from their coterie
of heiresses.
Last night the clever manifestation
of mirth and music thrust upon us
under the name of His Royal Nibs"
was heard for the last time - for
a while. But II is distinctly to be hoped
that 80 sparkling a bit of comedy and
song viii not be shelved for very long.

Fails TO Find Sister.

Bridget Walsh. 20 years OF age, was
found wandering in search Of her sis
ter along Union street last night by
Policeman Samuel Orr. The girl ar
rived in town yesterday afternoon
from Sligo, Ireland. Her sister was to
have met her at the ferry, but failed
to do so. Policeman Orr conveyed the
girl to the City Prison, where she was
given in charge of Matrop Mrs. Con-
don. The police will care for her un-
till her sister is located.

that II would take 500 to handle the case
$50 for hospital service and $50 for incident
cent for himself but It would take that
amount to care for the case. 1 said would
not guarantee to pay 500. but ! would pay
the bill at the hospital.
Mrs. Fannie Ames was called and
told her story amid sobs. She said DIR.
and when she told him she did not
have a cent, he told her he would do
everything free. She did not want her
husband taken to the City and Coun-
ty Hospital, for she had a horror of
such institutions. When DR.. Bracket
suggested the German Hospital she
consented. Witness repudiated a re-
ported interview she was said to have
given, when DR.. Bracket had asked
her for money and for her furniture.
DR.. Bracket had never said anything
to her against the City and County
Hospital, but the members of the Ma
tional Guard had told her it would be
sure death for her husband to be sent
there.
Witness had instructed DR.. Bracket
to go to Fleishhacker and endeavor
TO secure settlement of her claim, as
she did not want to go into court. Dr.
Bracket did so, but was only offered
$50. This was refused, as she wanted
$400 or $500. She had signed a num-
Der of papers, but had not received any
money except a little from Fleish-
hacker.
A question as to whether she had
attended the inquest of last Monday
was answered in the negative, and
when asked why. said she knew moth
ing of 1t until Policeman Clark called
on her to know why she had not al
tended. She positively stated she ha
not been served with a subpoena
Mayor Schmitz ordered his secretary to
note that fact in order to make an in

TO THE FRONT IN
AN ARMoRED TRAIN.

st. Petersburg, April 18.-An irons
clad train is being built for the czar to
take him to the Far East if he should
decide to head the army. The train
will consist of a summer and winter
palace car home, sleeping quarters
for 800 men and stables for a hundred
horses. The difficulty is combining
safety with a minimum of weight. The
rails of the Siberian road are not
heavy enough for ironclad trains such
as the English used in Africa.
The war minister is considering the
adyisability of providing ironclad
trains for the army in Manchuria.
Their necessity is argued owing to-
the uncertain attitude of China 1t is
reported that the czar fayors purchase
Of armor in the United States, once
because he thinks thereby to win good
opinions from Americans and again
because he has no faith in Russian
surveyors, whose dishonesty makes
the army suffer, as repeatedly pointed
out in these dispatches.

MANY NEW MEMBERS
We're Added TO the Churches by the
Revival Meetings.

The effect Of the recent Stuart re-
vival held under the auspices Of the
Brunswick churches is becoming ev.
ident IN recent additions to the church
es as il is understood that all Of them
are receiving new members.
According to good authority there
have been twenty-one new members
for the Baptist church, nine for the
two Methodist churches and eight for
the Presbyterian church and these
additions will be taken in within the
course of few Sundays. 1t is more
than probable also that others will
unite themselves and that the Bruins
wick churches win be greatly strength,
ened is gratefully noted by all who
are interested in their welfare.
The recent meetings were helpful
in more ways than one and not the
least Of these is noted in the fact
that the Tabernacle is now out Of debt
and affords a permanent place for all
large gatherings that may be induced
to come to Brunswick.

Negroes Used Knife on
Conductor Lineberry
Sunday Afternoon.
UGLY CASH ACROSS HEAD
Trouble Grew Out of Dispute over
Fare Collected by Conductor,
Both Negroes Captured After
Long Chase.

Conductor Lineberry, Of the Atlantic
and Birmingham railroad, was serious
ly cut by two negroes Sunday after
noon shortly after o'clock on an
outgoing train. The cutting occurred
while the passenger train was going
around the city, near the old brewery
site.
It seems that the two negroes were
on the train and had failed to pur.
chase tickets, and when the conductor
came along he demanded that the ne
groes pay four cents per mile, which
is the rule. To this the negroes OBJ
iected and quarrel followed Capt.
Lineberry walked ON down the isle
of the car and the negroes continued
to abuse him. whereupon. he returned
and struck one Of the negroes. The
other quickly drew a knife and made
a dash for the conductor, inlieting
serious cash across the conductors
right eye. While he was doing the
cutting the other negro grabbed the
conductor and endeayored to hold him.
Mr.. Lineberry fought the two ne
groes and attempted to draw his pistol
but with one negro holding him and
the other using his knife, it was i'm
possible for him to get to his pocket.
The negro also inflicted one or two
other gashes.
AS passengers and others ON the
train rushed to the assistance Of the
conductor the negroes made break
for the door and succeeded in escap-
ing Police officers were notified and
FASTENED to the scene of the difficulty
One of the negroes was found hidden
in the grand stand at the fair grounds,
and the other was captured an hour
or SO later by Officer Sam Coins out
near the six-mile crossing.
DR.. G. w. Blanton dressed the wound
of the injured man, and while they
were quite painful no serious result is
anticipated and the conductor will be
able to resume his run again in the
60 rise of a week or ten days.
