one years old, met q friend Of his bride z,

money, asked him to cash check for
$50 The friend. c. II. Hunt. Of . i

young couple have been sweetteaTts since
childhood and. although the husband had
not seen his bride for some three years
before they were married they both
seemed most constant IN their affections.
Mrs Mcknight has many friends in
Washington. several Of whom she has
visited since her arrival two weeks ago.
Young Mcknight said last night that he
did cot mind the affair FOR hls own sake,
but that he was crushed that a slight
