THE LADIES DID WELL.
For Once the Gentlemen Learned How
 Nice 1t Is to be Waited on.


 The leap year ball given by the ladies of the library was a decided success. The only thing that marred the pleas Ure of the evening was the music. This however, was not the fault of those sa-ho had charge of the affair, as they had engaged the best music in Phoenix, an orchestra of five pieces. When it came time to begin. though. only three of them put in an Appearance and the other two had to be picked up here in town. Consequently they had neve" played together before and the dancers suffered accordingly. The ladies wish it distinctly understood that in the fu- ture those who were in charge of this orchestra will be given a wide berth and the next dance that they give will be better looked after in this way
 Otherwise, however, the ball was all that could be desired. The ladies acted their parts we'll, as did the gentlemen. All the rules were strictly adhered to-. as one young man found, when in a determined effort to reach the water cooler, he started off alone He was promptly captured by the floor manag- CT and escorted to a seat, where he re- mained until some kind-hearted lady 2eAN AAA lO ct-o7ISl Il4lll III 5ClllllS d QIlIlk

to a Third of a Million
Dollars
MARRIAGE DlsPLEAsED FAMILY
Mrs. Ella Baker, A Native Of New
York State, EIoped At The Age Of
Sixteen, And Married Her Lover, De-
spite Threats OF Disinheritance-
Legacy Was Entirely Unexpected.
Special to Times Republican.

Nevada, Sept. 22.-An inheritance of
third of a million dollars wholly UNI
expected, does not come to great
many people, but that is the news that
reached Mrs Ella Baker, a lady living
in the southern part of the county, a
few days ago. Nearly a half century
ago, Mrs Baker, then a girl Of 16 and
of wealthy family eloped with the
lover of her choice and married him,
despite the threats of disinheritance.
With her husband they came west, and
for the past dozen years have made
| their home in this county. While they
have always lived honorable and indus
trious lives, fortune has not smiled up
on them in financial way and when
the husband died a year or so ago,
there was nothing left for the widow
but the support of son.
A few days ago she received word
from the administrator of the estate
of an older sister, that the latter had
died and left no heirs. other than
Mrs. Barker. brother in Ohio and a
niece in Saratoga, N. Y. The estate
which Is valued at slightly over a
million dollars, was largely inherited
from brother. who died very wealthy,
in San Francisco, having gone to that
country years ago and made his for
tune in the gold fields. This fortune
was never put into the hands of the
sister. however. She being very aged,
and of rather feeble mind, the rela-
tives had interferred, and the courts
had handled the estate for her
Mrs. Baker will leave for New York
to look after the affairs shortly. and
when the matter is finally settled, will
go east and she will spend the bal
ance of her life in the state OF her
girlhood.

Webster City, Sept. 22.-Deserted by
her husband and left penniless with no
means of support for herself and child
Mrs Will Hoppe and her thirteen
year-old daughter, left yesterday for
her mothers home in Jefferson.
The incident has ELECTED the SYM
pathy of those who are familiar with
the facts, and they are loud in their
accommodation of the heartless manner
in which the husband left his wife and
child to get along as best they might
or else fall back on the charity of their
neighbors.
The ever hanging daily life OF the
carnival company was more to the
liking Of the husband. nd he followed
off the splelers, the oarse barrel
organs and the glittering side show
fronts after giving his wife and little
daughter a parting curse and telling
them to go to perdition as far as he
was concerned or cared.
Will Hoppe, the husband, was en-
ployed as cook at the Wilson. He
had been in the city about a year
having come here alone. He later
sent for his family, and they boarded
for a time at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs James Holman. Later they
moved to the northwest part of town
at the corner Of Prospect and Odell
streets, where they lived until the hus-
band left.
Early last month carnival company
was organized in this city to tour the
west and south. Hoppe, altho he
had a good position at the Wilson,
and was making sufficient wages to
support his family in good shape,
enlisted In the ranks of the carnival
company as cook on the dining car.
He said nothing to his wife until the
day came for his departure, when he
went home and quickly gathered his
personal effects together. He told his
wife that he was going to leave and
never wanted to see her again. She
could take the furniture and do what
she pleased with it, he didn't care
what.
The wife was dumfounded at the
announcement and before she recov-
cred from her surprise Hoppe was
gone
She remained here for some time.
thinking perhaps the husband would
repent and return, but she has heard
nothing from him. The case is one
which ELECTED much sympathy for the
woman. who has the respect Of all who
know her. Everyone is loud in de-
nunciation of Hoppe and his return
here would probably result in his ar
rest for wife desertion.
