CHICAGO, June 28.-Franklin S.
Hardlnge, not millionaire accord
ing to his own story, but a hard
working inventor of oil burners,
with but $652,369 to his name,
fought back against Miss Ann Liv-
ingston's $250,000 breach of promise
suit today from the witness stand.
a minute after he was placed on
the stand Thursday the 62-year-oId
furnace manufacturer testified as to
his relative penury and declared
that if he paid what his 29-year-
old ex-f1ancee demanded, he would
be ruined financially.
Hardinge got little farther than
this as oss-questioning of Miss
Livingston had taken up most of
the time.
His testimony today will deal with
what his attorneys call 'the plain
tiff's gold digging proclivities'
while they were engaged in 1927, it
was understood.
Sticks to Story
The Tulsa divorce stuck to her
story, told during five days on the
witness stand, that she was Tilted
by Hardinge at Chicago on the eve
Of their wedding.
Persistent objections by the de-
Tense prevented her from going into
details regarding a pre-nuptial con-
tract which she refused to sign and
which presumably caused the mar
riage to be called off.
Three such pre-nuptial agree
ments were introduced as exhibits
by the plaintiffs attorneys, however,
and identified by Miss Hardinge.
One proposed she receive 100000
at Hardinge's death in return for
waving all claims to his estate.
Hardinge's attorney read list
Of purchasers he said had been
made for Miss Livingston during her
two weeks visit to Chicago to see
Hardinge, including $35 black
chiffon nightgown, pajamas at $35
a pair, evening gowns costing $125
and 5000, fur coat 5000, a diamond
and ruby ring $3.50, shoes at $22,
and $500 bill at a department
store.
Denies Asking Gifts
The defense endeavored to show
that Miss Livingston had suggested
the purchase of lavish gifts and
that she had taken the liberty of
using the millionaire's charge &C
counts to satisfy her wishes for
clothes and jewelry.
II never asked for anything" she
replied to all questions. He al

woman who sleeps in a grave here
may be canonized as Americas first
saint. She was Mother Mary
Magdalene, who died here at the
age of II, after serving the Poor
Clare convent, which she estab-
lished, for nearly half a century.
First steps toward caronization,
which may extend over as long a
period as fifty years, are being taken
by a group of Catholic church
dignitaries in session at Omaha,
Neb., revealing many odd rites.
The preliminary presentation of a

The Rev. James M. Stenson, pastor
of st. Peters church, Omaha, is

Pope to Pass on Evidence
In connection with the canoniza-
ton, evidence of two miracles in
the life of Mother Magdalene must
be presented. The case will then go
before Pope Plus and the College
of Cardinals in Rome.
The next step is Qualification.
Expert theologians will go over
the story of the holy woman's life
seeking proof of miracles. In pur-
suit of this proof it is possible that
the body may be exhumed from a
vault in Poor Clare convent, after
burial for twenty-four years, owing
to a theory that the flesh of some
who have served the church will
not corrupt,

Mother NIagdaIene was an Italian

New York, where she was destined
later to be a pioneer in establish
ment of the Poor Clare convent. She
entered upon the life of a nun at
the age of 26.
In early life, the candidate for
sainthood was described as high
spirited with the daring recklessneSs
of a boy" but with age she gained
mastery of her emotions and came
to be known as THE Rock" She
once submitted to a major opera
ton without being given an anes-
thetic.
AS she lay on her death bed,
Mother Magdalene, speaking to
those who we're praying, said
Please let me go home, for the

your prayers"
