The Pie Girls story.

Some interesting "reminiscences are
being brought out in the Thsw trial in
New York. The recital of the story OF
the late Susie johnson was listened 10
closely yesterday. The deceased shortly
before her death had said;
"I was offered $50 to be the girl in

THE BAssETT DIVORCE CASE.

To the Bassett divorce case in Omaha,
Neb., yesterday, a letter, written by
Rev. +. Lawrence Hunt to friend, in
which he spoke of mis- intention to ask
Mrs. Bassett TO marry him when she
is free from her husband, was offered
in evidence, but was Withdrawn to be re-
submitted at the proper time. In this
letter Mr.. Hunt says:
"At the very first had no selfish mo-
tive in helping one Of the very best Of
the flock God gave me to care for. /
had no intention of asking her TO be my
wife when she is free, but have been
impressed with the marvellous character,
the strength of womanlihess, the bright
ness and cheerfulness, with which she
has come up under the fierce trial OF
! the past year. The FIRE has only puri-
fed this purest clearest gold OF earth
and heaven.
'1 am so convinced that she will be
such an exceptional power 10 the social
and spiritual life OF the congregation to
which God will send me in his own beat
time that am going TO. give love the
right of way, snd when she is free ! am
going TO ask her to be my wife,.
Haifa dozen times Bassetfs attoTneye
scored Mr. Hunt They said that Mrs.
Bassett VAS asking this divorce because
Hunt wanted her to do 80.
ot ahnUCQd
Mrs. Bssseit in the cross-examination
that much Of the trouble was due TO lack
of money, and that her attempt OF sui
eide was because OF her remorsJ over
her own extravagance.
"If you were here tonight / would
kiss you, hug you, love you, dance for
you and make you happy" " rote Mrs.
Bassett TO her husband, and then vent
OH and ask him for more money.
The defense attempted TO get before
the corr. the length cf time after Mrs.
Bssse. left her husband until the young
est child, Lawrence, named for the Rev.
Mr.. Hunt, WAS born. The court ruled
ont this testimony, but said it would be
accepted later. Mrs. Bassett testified
that she did not notify her husband that
another child was expected, nor did che
notify him when the child wss born.
alt was none of his business, " she
said.
When Mr.. Bassett was asked If the
Rev. NJ. Hunt had not paid her expen-
ses at the birth of little Lawrence, Mrs.
Bassetts attorney made strenuous
fight, and STAYED of the answer for the
present. The question will be answered
later.
1t was brought out that one Of the
whippings which Mrs. Basse:t received
fcom her husband was because she in
sisted on going to Rev. Mr. Hunts
church one night when he objected.

FRENCH MINISTRY SUSTAINED


The French Ministry yesterday, Pres
dent Fallieres in the chair, unanimously
approved the agreement between Educs-
cation Minister BRAND and Premier
Ulemenceau relative to the form OF tie
leases of the churches to the parish
priests, and the Premier supported NJ.
Brands declaration before The Chamber
# Deputies, which by a vote of $50 to
SS indorsed the governments policy.
NJ. Meunier, radical republican, at the
opening OF the debate said be was op-
posed TO any recognition OF the Catholic
hierarchy.
rhe deputy concluded by saying
Worship is free and the churches aIe
open. That is sufficient. No conciiation
netween the republic and Rome is pos
sible."
NJ Meunier's statement was applaud
ed by the members of the left party.
NJ. Guleysse, radical republican, fol-
lowed on the same lines, expressing re-
gret at the fact that the government had
not recognized the cultural associations
of the independent Catholics.
After o deDuDciation OF the govern
ments policy By NJ. Allard, socialist, NJ.
BRAND mounted the tribune and in an
eloquent speech, which drew repeated
rounds OF applause from the center and
even from the right, maintained that
the government had not and would not
abandon its conciliatory policy. The
regime of the separation OF church and
state should not be made cloak for re-
ligions prosecution. In spite of the in
triOues of its enemies, the government
proposes to fight out the issues on that
line and to the end.
Then, turning to n. Allard aud the
members of the extreme left, he bitterly
reproached them for "wanting to make
war on millions of their fellow country
men," He said 1t was the duty Of re
publlclns and free thinkers, alike, TO re-
spect the conscienees Of the Catholics
and to do nothing TO invade their liber-
ties.
He added, still addressing the mem
bers of the extreme left:
"Your conception Of the separation
Of church aud state is not ours. We
stand for liberty for all"

SUPREME COURT OPINION
Case Stricken From Record Can't Be
Reinstated Without
Notice

After a case is once stricken from the
calendar in the trial court it cannot be
reinstated without notice to the other
party or by order of the court. This
rule was laid down by the supreme
court yesterday, when it sustained the
lower court in setting aside judgment
IN the case of Mrs. S. NJ. Riddle and
Ellie Riddle against b. b. Quinn, ap-
pellant
The original action was brought to
set aside judgment secured by Quinn
against the respondents, i'm which the
property at the Halls hotel was levied
upon. The case was set for trial on the
regular call in 1901, but was stricken
from the calendar. 1t was never rein
stated according to the rules of the
court. Without notice to respondents,
it is alleged, that appellants attorney
had the case placed on the calendar in
1903, and secured judgment. This was
set aside by the district court, and the
supreme court affirmed the decision.
The opinion was written by Justice
Frck, and concurred in by Chief JUS
tice McCarty and District Judge Arm
strong, who sat as a member of the
court because of the disqualification of
Justice StrauD.

1T very often happens that Destiny has
made the choice of the home site before
we have had a chance to get in a word
on the subject. We are placed in the
position of the man who was upbraided
for not having chosen more wisely his
ancestors But If the irrevocable has not
been done we may have many helps in
modern ideas of what home site should
be.
THE ideal home site for a family of
moderate income would be within half
an hours ride from the husbands place
of business, upon a side street half
block to two blocks from the line OF
transportation so as to be away from the
noise of traffic. If a spot can be found
a few feet higher than the surrounding
land it should have unhesitating prefer
ence. Such a place is certain TO nave

as a warning that an enemy is abroad,
not all foul smells appear to have a seri-

kind. The most that can be said against
disagreeable odors as whole is that

not too much in evidence. Such a home
should be in a strictly residence neigh

Quiet is health essential quite for

in a quiet neighborhood is the best

days a week up to his armpits in the
tide of business affairs. Therefore.
choose the home site as far from the
all-night noises as conditions will permit.
New neighborhoods are to be preferred
rather than old ones because all the new
houses are likely to have the latest and
best in sanitary plumbing and one is
less likely to suffer from the laxities of
his neighbors. The spirit of a new
ueighborhood is more likely to be that of
today while the old locality is in the
struggling and irregular part Of the pro-
cession of progress.
People who own the houses in which
they live are more painstaking in the
care of their properties. and the ideal
home site would be among such neigh
bOrs.

blocked the system and forced the boys
to walk one and one-half miles farther

followed into camp, which was reached
late in the afternoon, was fourteen
miles long and. counting hard condi-

the regulars. Only one or two of the
lads became so tired that they had to
