the Chancery order and paid nothing
until he was brought before a justice
of the peace in Kenilworth month
ago.

straight F'ilament lamp, and until a
few months ago was superintendent
of the company's plant at Kenilworth

while the assemblage rose to it's feet.
The proceedings were very brief
and simple. They were watched with
interest by large number of
foreigners who had packed the gall
leries. Outside vast crowds thronged
the precincts OF the parliament build
ings and cheered as a salute of 101
guns doomed from the city wall.
All the streets of the city were
decorated with flags and triumphal
arches. The occasion was observed
as a general holiday throughout
China.
Yuan Shi- Kai's message to Par
lament, which. was not read pub
licly since his presidency is still pro-
visional, consisted of hearty con-
gratulations and the expression of
the hope that the republic would
last ten thousand years.

John r. Harden, who appeared for
Mrs. Flick, declared that there are

HIS BURDEN OF
AL|MONY REDUCED
BergfeIs Still, After IS Years,
Pays 1t to Rich Divorced
Wife.

After paying Sc a week alimony for
fifteen years to his divorced wife in
Asbury Park, William Bergfels, of this
city, grew tired of the weekly "hand-
out" especially so since his former
wife has married again, two of his
three daughters, whom the So went to
support also have married, and his
other daughter, Fannie. has grown 10
such an age that she is able to sup
port herself.
Through his attorney, George NJ.
Mason. Bergfels made application to
Vice Chancellor Stevens today to have
the alimony revised. He said his for
mer wife's second husband, Reuben
Brundage to whom she was married
in January, is II years old, wealthy
retired contractor, and is well able to
support her Fannie is living with
them in Asbury Park
The viee-chancellor agreed that
Bergfels should be absolved from
paying further alimony But he
thought Bergfels should contribute
something to Fannies support Ac-
cordingy, he cut the amount in half
and made it payable to the 16-year-
old girl.
Bergfels since his wife divorced
him, has married again, and is the
father of two other children.
Samuel Patterson, of Asbury Park,
who represented the former Mrs
Bersfels, said her present husband is
not wealthy, but is supporting his
wife by the income from $4,000

John BigeIow's Granddaughter
Leaves Note Saying I'm Tired
of Conventional Life

LONDON. April S.--Miss Dodge, a
granddaughter of John Bigelow, a
former United States minister to
France. and daughter of Mrs. Lionel
Guest left her home in London with
maid on April 3, leaving word thar
she had become weary of ''conven-
tional existence" and desired to make
her own way in the world.
Since her disappearance her mother
and stepfather have secured London
seeking for her address, and the af-
fair has created widespread interest.
Mrs. Guest believes that her daugh-
ter is still in London, as she has re-
ceived several notes from her none
of which. however. disclosed her exact
whereabouts.
At first search was made in the
country districts. but later a note to
her mother indicated that Miss Dodge
was still in London proper
Then her parents offered a reward
for informa ton concerning the cab
which left the Guest home with the
girl and her maid and baggage. The
posting of this offer of a reward for
the identification and destination of
the cab was the first intimation that
anything unusual had occurred in the
Guest household.
Mrs. Guest appears unperturbed
over the disappearance of her daugh-
ter, and expressed the opinion today
that it was only a manifestation OF
the unconventional temperament of
the Bigelows.n

There is no good reason for ex-
