A VISIT.

According 10 witness. the policeman
whom Shirley brought to the house on
that occasion was particularly oficious.
The officer took hold OF one arm while
Shirley held the other. Only her bicycle
suit would her husband let her nave 10
wear on that occasion. though he was
to lead her to her mothers home. Mrs.
Shirley declared the onicer told Shirley
she was hiding something in her pocket.
The pockets had to ne turned inside
out. Nothing was found I'm them. She
then made up her mind TO take some jew
elry and managed 10 secure a few rings.
Mrs. Shirley was in bed when her husband
and the officer entered the house. The
hushand got I'm by breaking down a
door Mrs. Shirley devoted a good deal Of
time TO relating her relations with one
William Smith. who she said every one in
Providence knew in the years from 1886
to 1889. He was in the gold and silver
refining business and boarded with her
and her husband when they lived on OK
ford street.
AN OUTRAGE ON PROPERTY.
Smith. according to witness, came homo
with her one night after attending a
dancing class. where she and her hus-
band had been. Her husband brought a
girl named Carr into the house. This
girls family lived on Chestnut street. The
girl remained all night and the proprieties
were violently outraged, according to Mrs.
Shirley.
on another occasion, according 10 wit
ness, there was a lively flow OF cham
payne at her home when wrong things
were done. for which her husband was
responsible. Mrs. Shirley declared she
never loved her husband. but did love
Smith, and her husband knew that fact.
Mr.. Champlin asked: Scott could not
have stolen your Affections" Witness
answered mo"
"He just picked them up as he could
anything i'm the street," queried Mr..
Champlin.
The reply was: 81 did not know that he
stole any affections"
Mrs. Shirley described a number OF
presents she received from Smith. These
Included n diamond worth $500, three dia-
mond rings. a plush box, "A watch and
chain, gold beads, a plush box. toilet and
manicure set and a pair OF gold and silver
bracelets, such as women wore I'm those
days, consisting OF six rings. worn only
on one arm. When counsel seemed not
TO be satisfied with the number OF articles
enumerated. she simply said: mo, l don't
know what else, Shirley has them all
now" According to Mrs. Shirley Smith
gave her husband an $50 overcoat and a
diamond ring.
MAKES ANOTHER CLAIM.
Another claim made by Mrs. Shirley was
that her husband knew OF her Intimate
relations with n man named Howard and
OF her going 10 his house and stopping
half the winter. She accused her hus-
band OF acts OF inhdelity.
One letter produced was signed "A
Broken-hearted Wife, Mrs. Shirley said
the letter did not express her own sen
timents. but those OF her father aud
mother.
Shirley's brother had. according 10 wit
ness. told her Shirley spent n good deal
OF time with n woman whose name Is well
known in certain circles. This woman
had once slapped PLAINTIFFS face, accord
ing TO the same authority.
Mrs. Shirley asserted she had told her
husband often Of meeting Scott.

CITY GOVERNING
Question Over Tax Collectors Bond
Ditto on Telephone Poles Location.

A special meeting Of the municipal
officers was held in the City building
last evening, at which there was pre-
sent Mayor knight, Aldermen Blake.
Wing, Burns, Harrington and Bryant
and City Clerk Wadsworth. After cal
ling the meeting to order, Mayor
Knight announced that special meet
ing of the municipal officers would be
held, Wednesday evening Of this week.
The most important feature Of the
meeting was the presentation of bonds
by Freeman Y. Barker, city collector Of
taxes. The bonds, which were in the
sum of $4,000. were in surety of pro-
fessional bonding company with head /.
quarters in Maryland. and while the
company guaranteed Mr.. Barker's hon.
esty. it was particularly specified in the
bond and accompanying contract that
the company would not be held liable
for any taxes that might not be collect
ed by the tax collector All collectors
who have held the Office previously
have furnished a bond in this same
sum. that not only guaranteed the city
protection from embeZzlement and
shortage in the funds. but also that
the taxes of the specified year would
be collected. The condition, it appears,
Is made necessary by Maine statutes
and also by a city ordinance. After
some discussion Alderman Blake of
Ward moved that the bond furnished
by Mr.. Barker be rejected and the mo-
ton prevailed. 1t was further ordered
that Mr.. Barker be requested to fur
nish a bond Of $4,000. covering the con-
dition named above.
1t appears that prior to last evening.
no one has been authorized to collect
any taxes of the year of 1905, Mr.. Bar
ker not being under bonds for moneys
collected in the 1905 book. On motion
OF Alderman Blake, last evening, it was
voted that Charles o. Wadsworth.
city clerk, be made an agent duly au-
thorized Of the municipal officers to col
lect such taxes, giving in exchange a
receipt as agent. Until Mr.. Barker
procures his bonds. therefore, all 1905
taxes. personal and poll. may be paid
10 the city clerk at his Office in the
City building
Mayor Knight addressed the board
regarding the matter Of the petition of
the New England Tel 4 Tel Co, upon
which there has been set a time for a
public hearing, the latter part of this
month. Mayor knight stated that the
Telephone Cos. agents had started to
erect poles on Brunswick avenue for
the extension of the rural telephone
system, the company not having a per-
init from the city.
1t was explained, last evening, that
the officials Of the Telephone Co. be-
lieved that they were in possession Of
certain permits. but upon an investiga-
ton, following complaints made to tn 2
mayor. it was discovered that the COM
pany was in error. and all work on the
extension of the system in this direction
has ceased to await the outcome of the
hearing. 1t is not anticipated that the
petition for location Of the poles will
meet with any opposition.
Last evenings session occupied but
one hour, adjournment following May
or Knights address on the telephone
situation.
