he decree Of divorce be shown IN

the decree Of divorce be shown IN
Philadelphia before license could be
procured 1t was necessary for o
special messenger to rush from the
Pittsburg court house to New 1ors
with the decree so that the impatent
pair could take steps toward marriage.
In this connection a story has bee"
developed of how the mad haste or
Mckee to wed the beautiful Denvet
widow was practically his undoing iii
Pittsburg. Thru his haste the sensa-
tional testimony of Mrs. Lydia Sutton
Mckee i'm asking for divorce was
laid bare.
Within an hour after the decree of
divorce had been handed down by
Judge Evans last Monday a messenger
from the local firm of attorneys doing
McKee's business, appeared in court
and asked for transcript of the case
for his client.
There was much excitement and
some delay until Mckee could be com
municated with again regarding $40
costs which must be paid before the
transcript could be given. Mckee said
to pay the costs, get the paper and
rush to New York.
In the confusion the newspapers
heard of the story which was intended
to be suppressed, as had been the
filing OF the divorce proceedings Nc
Kee had paid his former wife $3o0,0O0
some time ago, agreeing to divorce
on the stipulation that the testimony
should not be made public.

"Men who have to do difficult and

Mr.. Joseph A. Donovan is living at

inspector for the Haverhill Newton
and Plaistor electric street railway. The
remedy to which he owes his quick re-
lease from the tortures Of sciatica has
a worldwide reputation for purifying
and enriching the blood. When the
blood that feeds the nerves Is sound
and abundant the nerves themselves
grow healthy and strong.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the
remedy to use when the blood Is thin,
as in anaemie, or impure, as in rheu-

as In neuralgia; or lifeless, as in par

whole is ill-nourished, as in general

Governor LaFolette's College Days.
During his university days says
a writer in Harper's Weekly. young
La Follette's oratorical powers began TO
make themselves felt. Born with
gift for public speaking, he speedily de-
veloped into an eloquent and conVlnc-
ing talller, and was conspicuous dg-
ure in the literary and debating socie :
ties. The interstate oratorical con-
test between Ohio, Wisconsin, Missou-
ri Indiana. Iowa and Illinois was one
of the notable events of the college
year, and in 1879 he entered the nsts
of the competitors. The subject OF MS
Grafton was Iago,' and even as laeo .

OF the assembled colleges of the Bad

state competition itself when the SIX
champion orators OF as many SUITES
were pitted against each other on Inc
same platform.
"Young LaFollette staked everything
on the merits of Iago,' used the same
Grafton in all three contests, ana cur
ried off the interstate championship
with ease. The winning Grafton, treas

Plaintiff, while standing at a street
crossing, was injured. as he alleged, by
a piece of scantling protruding from
flat car of a passenger train. The acct
dent happened in the night, when 1t
was so dark that plaintiffs companion
could not see him across the street.
Plaintiff did not see what struck him,
and the only evidence with reference
to the projection was that of his COM
panion, who testified that he noticed
lumber on the train, and that the
sleepers under the timber on the car
slipped, and that the timber projected
between eighteen inches and two feet

in an intoxicated condition. The brake
man, whose attention was called to the
plaintiff, turned in the other direction,
and passenger attempted to prevent
the plaintiff from standing there, when
the brakeman turned and came to the
door, but too late to prevent the plain
tiff from reaching the platform. Plain
tiff fell from the platform and was in
jured. Action was brought for dam

part of the plaintiff at the time of the
accident does not constitute negligence
as matter of law. but is circum-
