A DISASTROUS MARRIAGE.
Unfortunate Ending of Romance in
Which Putney Girl Figured.

After less than a week of married life
Mrs. Jean H. Hallett, who previous to
Oct. was Miss Edna Patterson of Put
ney, left the home of her husband in
northampton, Mass, last Friday and re-
turned to the home of her parents. Fol-
lowing the separation Mr. Hallett, who is
son of ex-Mayor II. G. Hallett and
scion of one of Northampton's prominent
| families, advertised his wife in the local
papers, following the usual form for cases
of alleged desertion and announcing that
he would pay no bills of his wifes con-
tracing. The marriage which seems to
have resulted so disastrously took place
in Northampton last week Saturday even
ing and came as considerable surprise
to the brides many friends in this town.
The young people had known each other
for more than year, but it was not gen.
orally understood that they were to be
married so soon.
Immediately after the ceremony the
couple began housekeeping in the Hallett
homestead on Hawey street, but condi-
tions steadily grew more intolerable to
the bride. Her husband was hardly ever
at home, being present at only one meal
during the five days that they lived to-
gether. Upon receiving a visit from her
sister last Friday, Mrs. Hallett decided to
return to her home in Putney where she
has since remained. Her father, f. Il.
Patterson, went to Northampton the first
of the week to interview his son-n-law,
and it is understood was told by the
young man that he did not intend to
have anything more to do with his wife.
Young Hallett inherited considerable
fortune from his grandfather few years
ago, and after his father moved to Cali
fornia about a year ago, kept bachelors
hall at the Hallett home, entertaining his
friends lavishly and moving. it is said. in
rather gay circles Mrs Hallett was grad
uated from the Bratteboro high school in
the class of 1906, and for some time prev
ious to her marriage was employed in the
office of the Holstein- Friesian association
Of America in this town. She is young
woman of attractive personality and has
many friends here who regret the occur
renee of the unfortunate affair.

AN IDEAL ALL-AROUND NEWS.
PAPER

TAI EN-
Probably no other newspaper in the
United States can show so brilliant an
array of special features suited to the tastes
and needs of every member of the family
as The Chicago Record-Herald. Its
regular daily and Sunday features in
clude the letters of William E. Curtis and
and Walter Wellman, besides the spec
ial features suited to the tastes and needs
of every member of the family. 1t
contains the special dispatches from
the great centers. Next in i'm
portance comes The Record : Herald's
unparalleled foreign news service, embrac-
ing its W special cables and those of
the New York Herald, World, Journal of
Commerce and Associated Press. Its
pages devoted to commercial and fnan-
cial news of all kinds are unsurpassed in
scope and accuracy. Among other note
worthy features are its popular sporting
page, its sound editorials, Kiser's hum
orous alternating Currents" the lively
"Stories of the Street and Town." the
railroad and insurance columns, music
and. drama, society and clubs, daily re-
views of the latest books, the continued
story, the "Woman. Beautiful" depart
ment, the daily fashion article, "Meals
for a Day." news of the lakes, ETC., be-
sides a complete array of local and DOM
este news-all uniting to give the people
of Chicago and the Northwest a complete
and interesting all-round newspaper.
The Sunday Magazine of The Record
Herald is an artistic and literary triumph.
Famous authors and illustrators, fine
paper and press work, combine to make
it the rival of the great independent peri
odicals and a distinct departure in Sun
day journalism.

And that was all. Though they
strained their eyes and spoke with
bated breath, never a sight of boat OF

the latter were swallowed up by the
trees which shrouded the creek at the
foot Of Guanaco hill.

When Christobal made serious effort
to lead her away she threatened him
with the fierceness of a mother defend

But relief was vouchsafed in the
worst throes of her agony.
Boyle or Gray had never relaxed a
close vigil by her side. 1t was Gray
who made the thrilling discovery that
the canoes were returning. AS the
feet crossed the bay it could be seen
that they Were towing the lifeboat, but
never a sign of any prisoners could the
most careful scrutiny detect. The boat
was empty. 1t was easy to count ev.

into Otter creek, and there were wound.

returning to life she was transformed
into a stern. resourceful, commanding
woman. None suspected the mighty
force which worked this resolution III

with a cunning that was wholly for

row If by word or look she had
given cause for offense and entered
eagerly into the pros and cons Of the
debate which sprang up as to the best
course to pursue on the following day.
Every one agreed that nothing could
be done that night If the pillar of
smoke were visible at sunrise and
Walker could possibly manage to fire
the boilers. Boyle suggested that some
sailors In the jolly boat should sound a
channel along which the vessel itself
might steam slowly toward Guanaco
hill. That in itself would be move of
considerable value. If they could lessen
the distance between the shore and the
ship, each yard thus gained would help
the prisoners and impose a stronger
barrier against the Alaculofs, who
would probably be daunted when they
found that the vessels mobility was
restored.
This proposal was deemed so excel
lent that they all dined in vastly bet
ter spirits than any Of them anticipat-
ed. Christobal, puzzled out of his sci
entific senses by Elsie's change of
manner, kept a close eye on her. He
was amazed to see her eat a better
meal than she had eaten for days, and
she was normally quite healthy
young person, with a reasonably good
appetite.
Boyle and Gray took the first watch,
from 8 o'clock to midnight. Christobal
and Walker shared the next one. BY
o'clock II would be daylight. so the
