Brown was recalled to the stand in
the insurance Investigation this
morning He produced list of ten
ants of the Equitable building of
this city. He said the Equitable
Trust company pays $4,000 year
rent. He said $4,000 would be an
adequate rental. Brown said after
this committee completed work
something undoubtedly would be
done to secure an adequate sum.
He said probably all other tenants
had paid fair rentals. Hughes
questioned him concerning other
real estate matters of the Equit.
able His testimony developed the
fact that s. 100000 of fire insur-
ance was carried and handled by

Their. He alleged Mccormick talk
ed with a high medical officer, DR..

which might influence the admir-

such decided stand that he was
disqualified to SIT further. The

she went on occasions to his own
people in order to get something
to eat. Mrs. Adrian testified that
Adrian was stage struck, but never
made a cent SO far as she knew
at the business. She believed he
was an actor. Major Gwydir said
he believed Adrian spent money on
himself instead Of his family. Mrs.
Adrian said that he gambled, and
Mrs. Gwydir said that she made all
the clothing of the babe and sent
much of what It's mother had. Mrs.
Adrian said that Adrian did feel
the responsibilities of fatherhood
enough to bring home one day two
pairs of babes socks-10 cent
pairs-and they compromised the
total of his offerings to the babes
wardrobe.
Judge Huneke granted the di-
vOrce.

Just prior to the opening OF
court this morning, casual glance
= into Judge Poindexter's divorce
emporium might have conveyed
the suggestion that the interior was
a church, save for the court trap
pings. Sure enough, the men and
women arranged themselves just
like the interior of New England
church at prayer meeting-the wo-
men on the left and the men seq
regated on the right.
They were in pairs on both sides
of the room-evidently Mr.. and
Mrs. Plaintiff and the leading wit
ness. The ensemble of the gather
ing presented nothing unlike that
of an ordinary concourse of people
who seemed to divide themselves
in line of sex. An added touch of
the pathetic In human life was CIV
en- by the occasional babble OF
some infant in arms or the ex-
CARNATIONS of a youngster at the
knee.
In Judge Huneke's court room
the scene was different, owing to
the less ample quarters provided
by the participants in the forth
coming trials apd their friends.
After the. arraignment of three pri-
soners the court commenced the
call Of the docket Of 81 divorce
cases.

GRIND IN PoINDExTER COURT

GRIND IN POINDEXTER COURT
BY this time Judge Poindexter
had cleared away the debris of a
Stevens county mining case in
which he decided In favor of the
Pagagon Mining company as
against the Stevens County Explor-
alton company. He also heard
some criminal arraignments and
had made permanent the injunc-
ton requiring Walter S. Currier to
not modest Mrs. Currier at the
Armstrong lodging house.
He granted divorce to Mrs.
Mary Hoover on the ground of de-
sertiOn.
This afternoon Judge Huneke
resumed the hearing in the case of
Mrs. Wheaton, during which a let
ter was produced in the course Of
which Wheaton told his wife that
he would agree to let her have a
divorce. Mrs. Wheaton denied
that she had desired any separa-
ton from him until after her de-
sertion by him. The court made no
declaration in the case, continuing
it under advisement.
Mrs. II. Lounsberry was granted
divorce from w. e. Lounsberry.
by Judge Poindexter, who refused
divorce to Nellie M. Dragoo from
James Dragoo. because the things
complained of did not take place
until after the complaint had been
filed.
Jduge Huneke granted these d.
vorces: Mary A. Webster from
Charles A. Webster; Elizabeth N.
Edlund from J. e. Edlund; Sadie
F. Miller from Harry G. Miller,
and Adelia Manor from Jerome
Manor.

FAIR LlTIGANT TAINTED.

The very first case, that of Maud
A. Wheaton vs.. George Wheaton
brought forth both sympathy and
generic pathos. The plaintiff, a
young woman whose features be
trayed not the best of health, told
her story of desertion. 1t trans
pired during the testimony that re.
cent communication had been had
between plaintiff and defendant
and there was reason to believe
that the defendant is now in Ferry
county, to the knowledge of the
plaintiff. Judge Huneke took a
hand in the questioning and gently
but searchingly piled the woman
with queries. Apparently he was
not satisfied that desertion and
abandonment had been clearly es.
tablished.
'I'll pass the case" said he,
doubtless desiring time in which to
dissect the evidence.
AS the words fell from the lips
Mrs. Wheaton was seen to collapse
and fall forward, upon the end OF
the desk behind which sat the
Judge.
A woman friend OF the plaintiff
sprang forward and saved the
tainted one from falling from the
witnes chair to the floor. Bailiff
Walker and Stenographer Pelletier
took the unconscious woman to
the corridor, where consciousness
was restored after a short time.

Market Celebrate.

Plainfeld. n ;. May IS CspeciaD.-The 2O0th
anniversary Of the organization OF the Seventh
Day Baptist Church at NEWMARKET is being
celebrated to-day in connection with the an
nual conference Of the Eastern Association OF
the denomination, which has been held during
the last three days.

This evenings service will be given up to re1ni-,
niscences and closing conference. in which many
pastors and others active in the Church viii taxa
part.
The first Seventh Day Baptist Church was or
gained at Newport r, 7. in 1911 by irnni-
grants from England. Seventh Day Baptists
were also organized at an early date in Phfla-
delphia, in the same way, but the organization
OF the Church at NEWMARKET. now the Oldest
in America, came about from an entirely differ
ent circumstance.
The First Day Baptist Church OF Piscataway
was organized in 1859. and had been in existence
only about twelve years when one OF its mem
bers. Hezekiah Bouhan having lost confidence
in the sacred character OF Sunday q Sabbath,
began working on that day. Edmund Durham, a
deacon in the same church, finding his brother
engaged in serVile labor, reprOved him. Mr..
BOnham promptly challenged The deacon 10 prove
from the Scriptures that sunday was the Sab
bath. The deacon taken by surprise and not
having any suitable proof IN mind. began search
ing the Scriptures. As result several members
withdrew and began To meet for worship on the
seventh day. In 1903 they decided TO organize
themselves into a church. Deacon Edmund
Durham was called 10 ordination Mr. Dun
ham remained for twenty-uine years.
