Finally James Carter Is Set Free,
Only to Learn That HIS Fiancee

broken, He Grows Frantic and
Wrecks the Furniture.

New York, May T.-When James Carter
was sent TO Clinton Prison fifteen wears
ago he was a strapplng. prepossessins
young fellow of twenty-five. But he was
a burglar, he had been Caught with the
goods, and so he had to 60 behind the
bars
1t was a long sentence. but the unfor-
tunate fellow was buoyed up by the
promise of pretty girl who lived in
South Brooklyn, and who had told him
before he had run foul Of the police that
she would marry him.
Then, when he was convicted. she had
promised him that she would be true to
him and would marry him when he came
back. provided ne would lead a different
life. He said he would. and served his
sentence uncomplalnngly.
a few months ago he came out of
prison, forty years old. gray, and friend
less. but still buoyed up with the hope Of
matrimonial happiness. He began to
search for his fancee. and finally found
her, She was a sober-faced woman. and
she told him she had fallen in love with
another man and was about to be married
10 him
You promised to wait for me-" the
poor fellow said, his heart like lead within
him.

Il am sorry, bat it is too late now. My
wedding dress is all made
We'll" replied the eX-convict at last.
'I suppose l will have TO give it up, but
let me look at your wedding dress"
His former fancee acquiesced, and took
him into the house. Once inside. the
broken-hearted prematurely old man flew
into a rage. tore the wedding dress to
shreds, broke the furniture. and proceeded
TO make the house a wreck. Then he took
his departure. saying he would return and
finish the job.
The frightened woman sought the
police, and as a result Carter was picked
up and was in line in the Brooklyn detec
tive department to-day for inspection by
the squad. Capt. McClusky told the
squad to arrest him whenever they set
eyes on him. as he was a desperate crook
vino would shoot.
When Carter was subsequently arraigu-
ed in the police court on a charge OF
vagrancy, he drew out 50 bill as proof
that he had visible means Of support
The name Of the woman TO whom he
was engaged was not divulged by the
police.
