Kansas City, Mo., May 31.—Miss | Ella Ewing. formerly a milliner at | Excelsior Springs, has brought suit for breach of promise against Chris- | tian Frank, retired liquor merchant, | who is said to be worthnearly $500, 000. In her petition she states that in July, 1887, while she was living with her father, in Excelsior Springs, and doing an excellent business in the millinery line, she met Frank and on November 1, 1887, he asked her to become his wife, and she consent- ed: At his request she gave up her millinery establishment and came to _this city so that Frank might be near to her and see her more fre- ; quently. He took her among his and her friends and introduced her /as his intended wife. Now he refuses to fulfil his promise because she has been subjected to unfavorabie criti- leism. She states that Mr. Frank | told her that he was able to provide ‘a home for her and that he was worth { i i | $100,000. She made an investigation | and ascertained that he was really | ‘worth $150,000, and she demands a third of his fortune. Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla | Regulates the regulator.
