While Gillis Sapp, the hypnotic,
rejected suitor, Is languishing in
the city Jail unable to raise $500
bonds, his rival, Arthur Weart, and
the object of his violent admira-
ton, Miss Lottie Jimeson, will be
united in marriage.
Tonight is the date set for the
wedding, which has been arranged
with all possible secrecy, and the
officiating minister will probably
be Rev. c. o. Kimball, who was
called upon to marry Miss Jimeson
and Sapp, but declined on account
of the girls enfeebled condition.
There will be none but immedi-
ate relatives present at the cere-
mony, which will be performed at
the residence of the young ladys
parents, S301 .Ferrell street. Miss
Imeson is much stronger than she
has been for several days, since
her mysterious adventures, after
fainting in local department
store, were exploited in the news
papers.
Justice Mann has been looking
into the merits of the case, but has
decided not to release Sapp yet. It
is very improbable that he will be
given his freedom tonight in time
to be guest at the wedding, even
if he would attempt to attend. 1t
