to the old-fashioned waltz
There was a convention of dancing
masters In New York the other dov'

An early hearing has been prom.
ised on the suit of william Pahmeyer
against Mrs Marie Eva Fisher Bow

man for divorce, but she denies that
she was ever married to him.
II is probable that this case-one
Of the most unique in legal history
will come up for trial some time next
week. 1t will be heard in superior
court before Judge Breclinridge
Another of the many peculiarities in
the case is that Mrs. Bowman has
never been notified that suit was
pending against her in court. How
ever. she has employed attorneys 20
defend her in the divorce" action.
Mrs. Bowman last night declined
TO state what course she and her at
torreys had agreed upon to rcfutc
Pahmeycr's claims. She expressed
confidence that she would be VIC
