Wife FOR 40 Years
Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVTR, Del, April 24.-The
revelations in the Moncur case, which
came to light here yesterday, were
added to when Mrs Moncur, the
widow living here, declared that she
knew nothing Of her husbands dual
relations, If such is true. Mrs. Mon
cur said that she married Moncur
more than 40 years ago in Cunning
ham Valley, Pa, and that they had
lived together since that time. She
also said that Mr.. Moncur had been
in this country more than 45 years
and had never returned TO Scotland.
He was II years Of age.
II was recalled here yesterday by
some of Dover's citizens close to
Moncur that a report was in circula-
tion here ten or twelve years ago by
a brother of Moncur's who was in
the bakery business here, that his
brother was a married man having
a wife and children in Scotland. Lit
tie was thought of the report, as
everyone thought that If such was
the case, some action would have
been taken against Moncur had he
been a bigamist.
Il Is probable hat II the litigation
is continued that the wife and chill
dren in Scotland may be compelled to
come to Dover and appear in the suit

HOW TWO GIRLS WON.
a True Want Ad StOriette.

It was mid February. Heavy drifts,
flying avalanche of snow, backed
by terrific wind, gave no sign of re-
lenting its fury.
Helene Lang looked at the streets.
There was no sign in the crippled car
service to give her hope and how
could she face the storm that caught
her in its tolls and flung her about
as though she we're but a leaf?
It took no heed of a heavy heart.
so heavy, in fact, that It seemed to
Helene it dragged as if anchored to
some invisible spot in the snow. For
the future was dark and uncertain.
The department store where she had
worked faithfully for the last three
years had met with reversals of
fortune. She was only one Of many
that had been dismissed that night.
In their little twO-room apartment
she knew Adelia would be waiting for
her and she dreaded 70 tell her that
she was out of work, for Adella had
been for six weeks trying to get a
permanent position as a stenOgra-
pher. She had taken a substitute posi-
ton whenever il was offered her, but
business all over the great city had
come to a standstill. An army of the
unemployed had marched through the
streets. As Helene made her desper-
ate way through the crowd men jos
tied her and made no pretense of gal
lantry.
The weather symbolized the storm
of rage and despair which seemed to
fill the atmosphere and when, two
lessly up the stairs, Adelia was star
tied at her pale face and wide eyes.
It was not until a pot of tea sent
its reviving warmth through Helene's
numbed body that she told Adelia of
her misfortune.
why do we stay in this city Of
dreadful night'?" exclaimed Adelia
Helene, let us go away into the
country, we can farm"
The idea seemed sos impossible to
Helene that she laughed in spite OF
the tragedy which loomed before her.
But Adelia was in earnest.
i mean it! Look, | cut this ,Ad From
the newspaper and I'm going to
answer H."
2 Helene glanced at the Ad.
Wanted, responsible caretaker for
New Jersey farm. Apply in person
Mother and daughter preferred"
But we are not mother and
daughter, said Helene, painfully lit
eral.
"Oh, bother, we will go as sisters
We will answer the Ad tomorrow"
1t was at a down town office the
next afternoon that they met the
owner of the farm. II was woman
too, bright, brisk, business woman
81 knew l would find Just the right
people" she said with satisfaction
after they had talked over the details
The girls told her of their disap-
pointment at not finding anything tc
do aud their lack of funds and their
desperate straits. Mrs. Strong lad
won her way to her present success
without knowing what these girls
had experienced. She knew they were
/ honest and wanted a new chance, and
she was glad to give it to them.
In less than a week they were "at
home" at Seabright farm. Six months
passed and then Mrs. Strong decided
to sell her interests. The girls had
/ been able to save money and so they
! bought the little farm. but they never
/ forgot the gratitude which was due

the cold and misery of a snow-bounC
city and gave them their chance" al
