BURIED ALIVE.
French Girl From Her Grave Cries
For Help, Which Comes Too Late.

For Help, Which Comes Too Late.
A terrible story of a young woman
who was buried alive is reported from
Paris. She was supposed to have died
q few days ago, and, a burial permit
having been given as usual, she was
inferred on the following day. The
g~ravedigger, however, left the grave
only partially filled, thinking there was
no hurry, and three days later IN in
habitant of the village, passing by the
cemetery, stopped to look at the grave.
He was surprised to hear loud knock
ing, apparently inside the coffin, bur-
ted under only a very light layer Of
ground. He could not at first believe
his senses and got down to put his ears
to the ground.
Not only did the knocking continue,
but he also heard the young woman
calling out and moaning. He hurried
for assistance and a doctor, and when
the coffin was opened the young wo-
man was found alive indeed, as she sat
up and tried to speak. But, to their
horror, she did not long survive. Ev-
cry effort was made to help her, but
she gave 4 last gasp, coughed up some
blood and sank back in the doctors
arms. This time she was really dead.

ing the motion. in which she asked for
an allowance Ct $50 a week and $3.50
for counsel fro1n King, Henry II. Will
lis of 900 Broadway, counsel for King,
argued that the teachers motion should
not be granted because she had made
a similar motion in the suit entered by
Hays.
:. Willis also read a letter from Super
intendent Maxwell. The superintend-
cnt said that Miss Kollmyer, as she is
known in school No. %, is getting a
yearly salary of 5000. A woman get
ting such Il salary, Willis argued,
should not ask such a large allowance
from her husband.
When seen in her home in Brooklyn
the young schoolteacher smilingly al
legged that King and Hays were in a
conspiracy against her. She pointed
out that the atlidavits Of one were cor
roborated by the other in both suits.
When asked whether she really OBJ
tanned a divorce from King she warm
ly announced that Of course she did.
But are you not afraid that these
suits will affect your position as teach.
err" she was asked.
"Oh, no; not at ALL" she replied. "All
my principals and the teachers with
whom I work have known Of the un
fortunate suits for a long time"
The teacher, who is a brunette of
slender build, said she had been sup
porting her father and mother for
years as an instructor.
When asked whether it was true she
had applied for alimony in both cases
she said she did not know what her
attorney had done and that questions
Of that nature could best be answered
BY him.

who came out Of his store just as the

MI. Rifee Immediately seized one Of
the rakes which he had on display in
front Of his store and with it literally
raked down the bird and child. The
child was injured but little, while the
parent managed to deal the bird sew

spite this it managed to fly to some tall
trees near by, where while nursing it's
injuries it was killed by a rifle ball.

SUED BY TWO MEN,
Each SWears Brooklyn School,
teacher Is His Wife.
ASKS ALIMONY FROM BOTH.
Woman, Undisturbed by Her Odd Fix,
Continues to Draw $3.50 a Year From
School Board While Demanding That
Plaintiffs Jointly Pension Her.

Though she is calmly teaching the
children in public school No. %, at
Conselyea and Humboldt streets,
Brooklyn, it was developed in the
Kings county supreme court that Miss
Ada NJ. Kollmyer is defendant in two
suits entered by two men who are try
ing t. get legal freedom from her. One
is seeking for an absolute divorce,
while the other is suing to have his
marriage to the teacher annulled on the
ground that she had never been divorce
ed from the other. Though she is regis
tered as Miss Ada NJ. Kollmyer in the
record Of the school board, it was stat
ed in court that her real name is Mrs.
Ada NJ. Kollmyer-King-Hays
The history Of her unusual marriage
relations came out before Justice Kel-
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1910-03-17

ly in the special term Of the Kings
county supreme court when she APP
peared, through counsel, in a motion
for temporary alimOny and counsel fee
in one Of the suits.
This suit in which the teacher ap-
| peared as q defendant was entered by
John p. King, a travelling salesman,
who alleges that he married her in
1898.
King in his complaint placed empha-
sis on the point that he was only TWEEN
ty years Old when he met Miss Kohl
myer at a summer resort, while she
was several years his senior. But that
appeared to be no bar to their happi-
ness till his wife began to show plainly
hat she had a strong mind Of her own.
Exasperated by his wife's determine
ton to have her way, King finally
packed his trunk and left her. That
was in 1900. He never heard from her
again till one Gay in 1906 when he met
a mutual girl friend in Manhattan.
"Do you know that Ada has a di-
vorce from YOU" asked the girl, "and
that she has been married to another
man."
King was shocked by the question.
Then the girl told him that his wife
had obtained a divorce in New Jersey
and had been married to a DR.. Hays,
whom she had met in Yonkers. King
went home that night thinking hard.
He wondered how his wife could have
| obtained a divorce without his know
ing anything about it.
A search through the records Of the
Jersey courts revealed the fact that
Mrs. King had obtained a divorce In
some name unknown TO him. The
court records stated that the divorce
was granted on the ground Of deser-
ton. But as King maintained nc pa
pers in the suit had ever been served
on him he decided to investigate fur
Their. He trailed his wife to Yonkers.
There he learned that In April, 1905,
she had met and married Dr.. John B.
Hays, who has an Office at 429 Sixth
avenue, New York city.
King looked up DR.. Hays and ex-
planned the case to him. Hays was as
founded, King said, when he learned
that King insisted that the woman still
was his wife.
"Why," said Hays in amazement,
'she represented to me that she had
been divorced from you"
The two men consulted further. In
. few days DR.. Hays entered a suit for
annulment of his marriage with the
teacher on the ground she was still the
wife of King. because in the suit in
which she alleged she obtained a di.
vorce no papers had ever been served
On King.
King went back to Brooklyn and en-.
tered a suit for divorce, naming DR.
Hays as the correspondent. King began
his suit in Kings county, while DR.
Hays entered his action in Manhattan
AS correspondent in Kings suit Hays
made an affidavit, in which he corrobo
rated everything said about the alleg
ed Illegal divorce and the teachers rep
resentation that she had been divorced
from King. In Hays suit for the an
nulment of his m~arriageSto the teacher
King swore to an affidavit setting
forth that the teacher was still his
wife.
The young teachers determination Il
fight both actions to a finish was indi

Friends In Disuuise,


Not all the germs are wicked ones.
For some are truly good:
They oat around and do the chores
And for their keep saw wood;
They do not hand us a disease
Or on our ills grow fat,
But help digestion with its work
And do such things as that.
Without their labor and their pains
We couldn't get along.
They help our inner works perform
And keep us we'll and strong,
They run on errands for the heart.
They keep the lungs in tune.
And if the liver isn't we'll
They feed it with a spoon.
We had been led to think of germs
AS Wretches that were not
Possessed OF one redeeming point,
Whose pleasure "a to plot
Against poor, weak, d~efenSeless man.
10 camp upon his trail
With every old disease in sight
And lane him without fail.
But now we n the useful germs
Are armed in our defense.
They grapple with the wicked germs
And calmly Knock them hence.
The works would have to cease
Ii they were not IN every spot
To act as the police.
