NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE finish
ing touch to the interior of ]. Pier
pont Morgan's private museum of art
was given by the laying of s30O,O00
worth OF oriental carpets in the vNTI-
Gus rooms. Mr.. Morgan spent two
hours on election day choosing the
carpets from the collection Of II. H.
Topakyan, the Imperial Commissioners
of Persia, who was decorated recently
by the Snhan of Turkey, Although
the artisans have ended their task,
there is much to be done before the
museum will be the remarkable
thesaurus Of art that the owner has
designed.
When his purpose is realized it will
be the most costly and artisically val
liable private assemblage in the world
Of rare books, paintings Of the old and
modern masters and antique manu-
scrips, tapestries and scriptures. 1t
is estimated by a friend familiar with
Mr.. Morgaa's acquisitions during the

more than S2O,OO0,OO0.

IDIsOBEl COURT
LOSES A HUSBAND
DECREE OBTAINED II YEARS AGO
FORBADE HER TO MARRY
AGAIN.


NEW YORK. Nov. 12.-Because she
tiisobeyed a mandate of the Supreme
court, Ida Glenn Turner has ceased
to be the wife of VIII C. Turner. to
whom she was married eleven years
ago. The case Is regarded as unique
and caused considerable discussion
among lawyers, some of whom assert
ed that there had never been another
case of the kind in this state.
AS the result OF marrying Turner
on November g.. 1895. in direct viola
ton Of a judgment of the Supreme
ct.,rt, a decree was entered in tho Sg-
Oreme court annulling the woman's
marriage to Turner.
Mrs. Tuners disobedience Of the
Supreme court consisted IN marrying
Turner in defiance of a mandate Of
The court fcrbidiing her to marry any
man during the lifetime of husband
who had divorced her.
Recently Turner sued the woman to
whom he was married eleven yaari
ago TO have their marriage annulled
on the ground that she was not free
% contract valid marriage at the
time she was married to him In this
city, namely, on October 9. 1895.
/ Upon the motion of Henry Parsons.
counsel for Turner. and upon tie con
sent of Mrs Turner's counsel, the
case was sent to a referee to take evi
dence.
After hearing the evidence Referee
IicAvoy reported 10 tie Supreme
court that at the time the plaintiff and
defendant were married the defend
ant had former husband Lying from
whom she had been divorced on the
ground Of her improper conduct. Tho
referee also reported that he evidence
showed that he decree granting the
absolute divorce to Mrs. Turner's for
mer husband prohibited her marrying
any other man during his lifetime.
The referee said that she had enered
into another marriage-the one with
the plaintiff-and that this marriage
was null and void from the beginning.
Justice Blanchard confirmed this re-
port of Referee McAvoy and Justice
Gtegerich slgued a decree aRH1lltng
he marriage of the woman who had
deaed the command of the Supreme
court.
Divorced persons forbidden to marry
in this State usually go over to New
Jersey and ENTER into a second mar.
liage there and thus escape such o
complication as Mrs. Turner'go into.

has no effect outside Of the State SO

ond marriage contracted in another

the associations the men have the ad-
vantages of following definite courses
of study in educational classes, and
there is nothing better for them than
the practical talks on railroad topics
that are periodically given, The read
ing rooms and library should have
quite an influence In disseminating
general information and Stimulating
the intellectual life OF the railroad
man.
There is no better evidence Of the
religious influence of these associa-
lions than the increased number of
men who have Joined various church
es Is a direct result of this work, and
which growth during 1905, am told,
was from S95 to 1929.
The Baltimore and Ohio was one Of
the first railroads to take up the
Young Mems Christian Association
work, and | am convinced mat mucn
good has come from IT along broad
and liberal lines during its many years
of operation. 1t has been the policy o.
the present management to clearly
demonstrate to all in the service that
the B. and o. is for B. and Q. men, and
the merit system has been firmly in
stalled throughout the various depart
meuts. The Young Mems Christian
Association work on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad is certainly helpful
to the men in molding their future
course In life, better fits them for per
forming the duties Of their respective
positions and earning success by pro
motion to higher places through ths
operation Of the merit system. We
are pleased to give a few words o.
commendation Of the work that expo
rience has shown to us to be so salts

Noble Boni
Works a Graft
HIGH MINDED NoBLEMAN TURNS
CLEVER TRICK TO WIRING
MONEY FROM WIFE.

PARIS, Nov. 12.-Uniess all signs
fail the Count Boni De Castellane has
succeeded in swinging the French
courts his way and when the verdict
is announced in the suit of his wife,
formerly Anna Gould of New York, on
Thursday next, it VIII not be a de-
cree Of divorce, but rather will be an
order for the appointment of COM
mission to inquire into the allegations
made on both sides.
When NJ. Bennett, attorney for the
Count, raised the point that the ale
cations made against the Count could
not be considered unless specific
names and places we're proven, he
thew a bomb into The camp of the
applicant for divorce that is likely to
be far reaching. He is now being
backed by his principal creditors vino
claim that he, by insisting that the
Countess prove her case ne Will eon''
mel her to withdraw her application
for divorce, pay his debts, and con
sent to a separation on terms that
would be most advantageous to her
noble spouse. They argue that Meth
err the Countess nor her attorneys can
take chances chat they assume to
know and will settle rather than make
good on proof that they have not at
hand.
The countess and her attorneys
have felt very confident that she would
get her divorce when the decision OF
the court was promulgated and the rn'
NOR that an inquiry has been decided
on while only rumor is well authentl'
Gated, is decided disappointment
On the other hand, the lawyers for
the Count are correspondingly jubi
liant, feeling that they have won their
case already.
