His Third Divorce
Suit in Seven Years
Joseph Collier Relents on Other Two
Actions, but is at it
Again.

Mrs. Anna Caller has filled a tart reply
and cross bill in district court to the suit
for divorce brought by her husband, Joseph
Caller.
The interesting fact about the suit is that
this is the third time Caller has filed a
petition for divorce from Mrs. Anna Caller
in seven years. Twice before has Mrs.
Caller made a reply and each time Caller
has let the suit drop.
Mrs Caller does not herself wish a
divorce, being of a religious faith which
opposes 1t, but she does not wish Caller
to get one and so she has again filed a
plea for separate maintenance. Her charges
against Caller Include allegations of in
fidelity and cruelty.

''That is Samuel S. Cox, commonly

A moment later the great actors at

"That man." whispered Sir Henry,

That afternoon it was not difficult
to secure for Sir Henry Irving-then
plain Mr.. Henry Irving-a Seat in the
visitors gallery where he would be
fairly safe from observation, and yet
could see everything that was taking
place on the floor of the house. AS
soon as he was seated he became in

the whole house, seeming to take it

Then his attention became fixed upon
one member and he sat silently OBJ

At last he spoke, in a whisper, so
as not to disturb our neighbors.
