A YOUTH WHO WAS woeo.

A Chicago youth married an ac-
tress. Now he asks that the mar
riage be annulled because he is a
minor and because the lady did all
the wooing. He APPARENTLY regards
himself as a passive victim of energet-
ic courtship. He was too polite or too
devoid of the power of resistance to
say no at the critical moment. Aside
from the legal question of minority,
and absence of parental consent. the
plea that the actress did the wooing
seems strange. There is much evil
dence, even II it be latent. that this
Is not an unusual phenomenon. out
side the dramatic profession. II takes
two to make a match. The lady
must play her part in bringing about
the martial denouement. There are
ways of doing this that pass the mas
culine understanding. They are part
of the subtle way of a maid with a
man. If there be husbands who sus-
pect after marriage that they were
cleverly wOoed and won. they usually
have the sense to keep their belief
to themselves. II is subjct for
discreet silnce. In that respect, the
Chicago lads attitude of frank add
mission is both unusual and not very
creditable to- his sense of pride If not
Of self-respect.

Even a Christian. fresh from a

Christian neighbOrs. the Jews of Je-

built home with some Of the money.
The attorney for the defence put
: the witness through a grilling exam
ination as to what influence had been
brought to bear to make him testify.
Witness said he did not know in re-
ply to the first question, and denied
that Samuels had Influenced him to
testify. Col. Nelson referred to the
'Samuels sweat box" before the
dispensary commission, but witness
said he knew Of nothing that occur
red at this conference.

"My attorney, Mr.. Hemphill, told
me to tell the TRUTH said witness
hesitatingly. Wylie stated that he did

! Samuels, but that he had employed
Mr. Hemphill and told him Il would
do anything he told me to do
! That he wanted to wash his hands
! clean of the whole affair was the wit
ness's statement as to testlfyng.
He admitted that he had heard that
Samuels had testified 10 certain
things, but did not know of this from
Samuels. The defence wished to show,
evidently, that Wylie had been IN
formed Of the nature Of Samuel 5
/! testimony, and had come to Court to
save himself. It was stated BY the
witness that he and Samuels had
been advised to stay apart Ill Ches-
! ter and had done 50.
"Were you sworn before the grand
jury in a case charging You with con-
! spiracy?" was the defence's next
move.

moay. as the matters brought out be-
fore the grand jury were secret, but
was overruled by the Court who sta

conspiracy alleged in the indictment
was that Of Wylie. Black, ct al. to

who mentioned it to me-" replied

The State next introduced a line
of questions tending to establish that

The State consumed but one-half
hour this morning in the examination
of its principal witness in this case.
After a consultation between attor-
news. Col. Nelson started the cross
examination for the defence.
Answering the question as to how
did Farnum approach the witness on
the alleged promise, witness an
nounced that he would start way
back before I was on the board. y
Wylie stated that he ran in 1904 for
the board. but was not elected, but
was elected in 1906.
Had You made up your mind to
make all the graft YOU could out OF
! the position at chat time?' asked
counsel.
"No, not until close to the elec-
ton in 1906" qualifying this on next
question to "only after the first
| meeting Of the board in March.
"Witness reiterated that he had not
made up his mind to accept favors
before his election. He admitted that
afterward he made up his mind to

! Holding up the commission under
which witness was acting on board,
counsel asked: Had YOU made up
your mind even at the first meeting
; Of the board to disgrace this paper,
which is given under the seal of the

To this question witness made re-
) markable reply. He stated that he
did not think So then, that he did not

Pointed Paragraphs,

A man likes you to think he's
smart because the candidate he voted
for got elected.
The reason a stout woman doesn t
expect to keep on getting fatter is
she keeps right on.
A girl is almost as much fattered
By having man propose to her as
his sending her box Of flowers.
There's nothing that can influence
a man to take a present home to his
wife so strongly as a guilty con-
science.
You can spend an awful lot of
money educating boy to reason
about one-tenth as well as he could
do before by instinct.
All the money man would make
in one form of investment he loses
in another.
The more mistakes man makes
the luckier he is if nCne Of them were
to get married.
Where a girl is smart is knowing
how many more beauX she can have
by being pretty without the brains.

The scene was most impressive as
the Admiral, crippled by an old civil
