William Fletcher Arrested on = Charge of Six years ago a minister of the gospel per- formed a ceremony which was the means of causing unceasing trouble to William Fletcher. William is a hodcarrier and @ hard-working man, and never before was he ever in custody. About the time stated William and Gabrielle were made one, but they did not remain one more than a year, for then they separated. William thought it was not well to live alone the remainder of his life and so he went in search of another companion. Sarah Ann Ford suited him, and after a pleasant courtship they were married shortly before Christmas. Gabrielle did not learn of his second mar- riage until some time after the knot was tied, and last week she procured a warrant for Wil- Tiam’s arrest. Saturday afternoon William had a hod on his shoulder and was just entering a building in course of erection when Policeman Trammell Stopped him and placed him under arrest. Villiam could find no one who would become responsible for his appearance, and conse- ently he had to remain behind the bars. While there he spoke to every one who passed his cell, and he was anxious to impress upon their minds the fact that he thought it singular that a mancouldn’t marry a8 many women as he 8 ‘This morning in the Police Court Lawyer Peyton appeared as William's counsel and waived an examination. saan IE ¥.MC.

All last week Masonic Temple wasa scene of gayety, filled with pretty girls and soldicrly looking young men. The occasion was the fair held under the auspices of the Morton Cadets, and that popular organization, which Mr. Mor- ton equipped with guns and belts and a hand- some sum of money, is now considerably bet- ter off in a financial way. The fair manage- ment fell principally on Mrs. J. H. Jochum and ‘Mra. Astel, and these ladies deserve a great deal of credit for the interest they took. The fair closed Saturday night. In the voting contest H. W. Samson won the silver watch, Miss Lizzie Gibbs won the dia- mond ring and Mrs. H. M. Astel got the oil painting, “La France Roses.” The wall tent was won by Harry Jochum, and OC. L. Gleason won the tennis outfit.

Littlefield, Cornwall & Son, ceived at the office of the association, on New York avenue, until 9 o'clock on the night of ‘May 25, free and open to members only. A CLUB HOUSE BURNED. The Building on Analostan Island Owned by the Cotumbia Athletic Club. Fire was discovered in the large frame elab house on Analostan Island last Saturday night, and before help could be obtained it burned to the ground. The house was the property of the Columbia Athletic Club, and a resort of a large number of members on Sundays. The house contained a large amount of glass and china ware, which was also totally destroyed. terday morning President Hood of the club visited the scene of the fire and carried ona rigid investigation. He learned from O'Neill, the trackmaster, that the club house was locked about 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon. At that time there was no light of any kind in there. ‘The fire was without doubt the work of an incendiary, and the board of governors of the club heve offered a reward of $100 ‘or infor- mation that will lead to the arrest and convic- tion of the perpetrator. | The house was valued at 23,000. It is the intention of the club to erect another house at an early day. piri seca Death of W. W. Leggett.
