Serve Out Enlistment Before
He MarrieS.

NEW YORK. Nov. 25.-For the sake
of Il girl, most men are in a very great
hurry to do anything. especially # she
is worth a million. That's the rule. So
when there is an exception it is worth
while sitting UP and taking notice.
This yarn has to do with such a per-
son-one Matthew F. Leary, chief clerk
In the navy recruiting station at 153
West Twenty-third street Between
marrying Immediately a girl who is
worth a million dollars, and giving up
his career in the navy-which career
is to last two years longer-he prefers
staying In the navy.
But there are qualifications. Matthew
had this to say yesterday:
Il shall marry her as soon as ! quit
the navy. Then for the ranch.'
Leary was the chief yeoman on board
the Connecticut in the trip of the eeet
around the world, and love was far
thest from his thoughts when she put
into Melbourne, Australia But let Mat
thew tell it.
We remained there three weeks" he
added, "and during the first part of the
stay i was introduced to Timothy Frank
McGrath, all Irish and a yard wide,
with a ranch worth million and a
pretty daughter named Lydie. 1t was
Father Matthew c. Gleason, chaplain
OF the Connecticut, who introduced us.

Mr.. Folsom, who has an office at %
John street, and lives at Great Notch.

preme court, and on it Justice Gle
gerich has granted him divorce.
The remarkable document. dated

Mrs. Georgianna BluXome, Mrs. Fol-
SONS mother, who lives at COS West
10th street, as in her daughters hand
writing. Mrs. Folsom went TO Reno to
sue for divorce, as she and her hus-
band were not happy together. She took
with her Charles, their fifteen-year-old
son.
After writing the letter she disap-
peared from Reno, and has wandered
about in the West and in Canada since.
BY a peculiar coincidence, on the day
the husbands divorce suit was heard in
New York she was discovered under an
assumed name in a hospital at Chico, a
small town in northern California.

kindness. Both are possible to him.
You will hear him described as worth

On Monday, February II, l endured in
his presence, without defense or protec-
ton from him, in spite of his solemn
promises, the cruelest and fiercest i'll
treatment 1 have ever suffered. But 1
