EXPLAINS THE SUIT
AGAINST DEDON|
Henry Bonnet Explains Action
Brought Against Madam
Gould's Former Husband.

PARIS, Feb. 1s.--Henri Bonnet
counsel for the Marquis and Marquis
peCastellane, gave to the United
Press to-day the details OF the DON
tract on which his clients are suing
Count DeCasteliane. their son and the
Princess De Sagan. his former wife.
for s16.s00. which sum. IL Is alleged.
Is areas in an annuity which the
Count and his formre wife were under
contract to pay the plaintiffs.
The contract on which the parents
are suing, Bonnet explained was made
in February, 1895. shortly after the
Count and his new wife, who was Miss
Anna Gould. arrived in Paris. 1t pro-
vsded that the Marquis and Marouise
should give the Count and Countess
the income from their Forest OF Beug-
MES property, In return for which they
were to receive the annuity of 5000.
The Countess met this annuity, Bon
net said, until 1906, when she divorc-
e., Boni. After the divorce, the Mar
qu.s sold the Forest of Beugnies and
applied the proceeds to the debts OF
his SON
This application of the proceeds
helped Anna az much as 1t did p onl"
Bonnet asserted. "as she was Jointly
liable with Boni for most of these
debts. The present suit is brought
against both Bont and his former wife
10 compel them to continue the an
nuity, but. of course. 1t Is really
uimed against the present Princess De-
sagan. as Boni Is now unable to meet
any judgment against him."

Doily's Version of II.

Dolly was not quite six when her
mother bought a flock of nine Ply
mouth Rock hens and a rooster, and
diligently explained to Dolly that the
rooster was the papa hen" and the
rest were all mamma hens" After
two or three days of confinement, to
accustom them to their coop. they
were let out to wander about the
yard. and Dolly was set to watch
them. The hens stayed together
nicely, bat the rooster showed a ten
dency to wander into the next-door
neighbours chicken-yard Dolly
chased him back time and again, until
she was tired and out of patience
She turned her back for a minute
and when she looked around there
were the hens up by the coop, while
the rooster was sedately pacing across
the garden toward the next yard.
Dolly stamped her foot on the side
walk and screamed, Come back here
Come back to your own family" The
rooster proceeded with perfect
equanimity Dolly watched him for a
moment with look of utter disgust.
Then her mother heard her say very
emphatically in an undertone.
That's Just like you men, any
way. "-Lipptneotts

CHICAGO HOG MARKET
REACHES HIGH LEVEL

CHICAGO. ILL, Feb. 1s.-The hog
market to-day reached the highest
point in forty years, when the price
Jumped to $40 q hundred weight
during one Of the most exciting mar
ket in the history of the Union stock
yards. This IL cents above the
record of 1882. but inconstderably
below the record OF $13 hundred
paid during the Civil war, and $40 a
hundred reached in 1870.
To-days price of pork on the hoof
is thirty cents higher than the prev
ious high mark for this year. The
advance in the market during the
last week has been fifty cents a hun
dreG -
Speculative demand caused the
early gains The packers endeavored
to remain out of the market but the
constant advance forced them in and
the market developed into a wildly
excited one. For the first time in many
years, the packers buyers 'outbid
each other for the same hogs.
