| i el rle gl 77 - ~ O WOMAN'S WILES. A Pagoinating Fomale and Her Adventarous Amours, Olemons Gives Olara a Very Unsavory Record, And Says Sho Has Had £ix Hase ‘bands. An Interesting Story With Another 8tory “on the Side.” A communisation from our corres- wpondent at Westberg, Iowa, a few daye ago, published under tho head of “Croel Olara,” attracted a good deal of attention from thore person. ally acquainted with either or both of the partien, A Beg reporter went to some paing to look up the details of the case, Dr. O, L. Clemens, tho husband of Olara and the man who walloped Hugh Long, being a resident of thia city. THE DOCTOR came to THe Bee office to have the aflair investigated and did not ask oredence given to his word alone but offered to produce the testimony of a number of witnesses who had known his wife In Omaha as to her history sinco she struck this part of he country. The story isa curious one and shows what a woman of at- tractive appearance, lady-like manners and fair education may do to make or war & man's life, WHO SHE REALLY WAS, De, Clemens produced a letter writ- ton by his wife’s father and other evidence, which goes to show that the woman's nams was really Klizabeth 8. Bashline, doughter of Mr. J. M. Bashline, of Binton, Pa. What she was a8 miaid is not recorded, but it appears that while still a native of the Koystone State she married HUSBAND NUMBER ONE, a man named Garten, and removed with him to Illinois, ‘‘The Sucker State.” She seems to have been angling succersfully for suckers over since. 3 M:s, Garten first appearcd in Oma- ha about three years ago, and worked for a timo fora man who was noted for his CLOSENESS IN MONEV MATTERS and readinees to make all he could. off of the novessities of others, She soon after began to board with a respect- able fam:ily on Harney street, but her exchequer running low, and her wear- ing apperel and all her earthly goods ~falling into the merciless clutches of her former employer, she was soon reduced to beggary, which was made more horrible by sickness. About | November 9:h, 1879, she was in A DESTITUTE CONDITION sud 6y 8 last resort went to a house kept by & womsan who her name suppressed, for relief. It was in short an assignation house, accord- ing %o best accounts, but the keeper, like many others in that very ques- tionable business, is a w-man not only of shrewd business qualities and brains but with a heart for her fellow women. At this time she had A VERY BCANTY WARDROBE, including only one light summer dreas, acharg) of underwear, by no means complece, and in short next to naked as well as poor. Her olothes had fallen into the hands of her creditor. Bhe represented herself to be Mrs. Clara D'Artney, said her home had been in Oalifornia and that she was A GRASS WIDOW. She said that her father-in-law was TWELFTH YEAR. 14w, i 1rr; 5 watoh for thelr board and they left, The Iandlord of that houte ssys they NEARLY RUINED BIM presumably by the fact of thelr unholy alliance becoming known to the ublic. After belng Mrs, Barkis or four months she leit the railroad man and returned to Oouneil Bluffs where she again en- tered the bagnio she had 1eft to go to Marysvile. Shs had ia tho meantimo kept up the story of her Earopean life and experiences, at times stating that her father had been a wealthy Earo- pean and had died and left her to THE TENDER MERCIES OF THE WORLD. Olararemained at Council Bluffs unfil May, 1880, and then went to Harlan, fowa. A fourth husband somehow begins to figuce i tho story at this jurcture but the light on this patt of hor varied conjugal relatfona is not olear, All that {e known of pum- ber four is that HIS NAME WAS THOMPSON ~~Thempson with a p—p-eace to bis ashes, At Harlan sho entored the family of & M=, Hurliss a8 a seam- sirers, Here she played the role of a lady who had seen better days, and told of her father's great riches and loss of proparty, It appears that she is one of nature’s noblewomen eo far as wappearancos go. Her husband says she is very prepossessing, of me- dium height and with JET BLACK EVES and raven hair. Hur most remarkable gift, however, is the ‘‘gift of gab.” She can ‘‘taik like a preacher" spin] yuras likean old salt, at less per yard than prints can ba sold ata five cent counter. She catches her fish overy time—and the next one to swallow the bait was Doc Clemens, who met, wood and won her at the Hurltss mansion. This, HER FIFTH MARRIAGE, de convenienca or otherwise, took place July 3d, 1880. She was then a poor girl, and the doctor spent his money lavishly, gave her a comfortable home, and in short was a dutiful, obedient and loving husband, accord- ing to the statutes in such cases made and provided. They moved to Ash- land and then to Omaha, whero they rented one of the Woodruff houses, down on E eventh street. The house was well furnished, aud they always kept a hired girl. Mrs. Clomons vis- ited Mrs. Blank as an old friend, and said DOC WAS THE BEST PROVIDER in the world and she was very happy indeed, Shehad previous to this and since going to the Bluffs visited Mra, Blavk several times and had paid hor back in part the debt due her, $16 in all, Mrs. B. throwing off §2.560 for sweet charity’s sake, It isinferred, however, that she had some gentle- men friends who also called at Mrs. B.’s, for the latter says she remarked at one timo concerning Doc’s blind- ness to his wife's conduct, “‘If Doc ain’t a fool he's D——D BADLY DUPED, d | card from Wastburg atating that Long yf ¥ & 4 - 4 *_j(./, C-(/L./ fl(&;%//\ ABA ' DALy BEE OMAHA NEB.

DREWSTER AND THE COURTS, The attorney general communiocated to congress his views upon the inade. quateness of cumpennation of United | jpectal Dispatoh to Tun by States in western states and torri- tories, causes many suits on government to fail beoause of the ill will of witnes: and the enactment of alaw witnesses and jurors Oalifornia, Orogon, Novada, Colorado and th while attending court in of mileago allowed by law., He also sug gests as a romedy to overcome the complaint because the judge who pro. sides in a district also sits in the supreme court when his deeision is ro viewed, that either an additi j be appointed in all territos a cirouit judge be appointed as in statos, The warrant in the Soteldo case was nolle prosequied this afternoon. _THE UTAH COMMISSION, in a report to the mecretary of tho interior, recommends that a marriage law be enacted by congress which would form an suxilisry in suppres- sion of polygamy. The commiesion say that, owing to the peculiar atate of aftairs in Utah, the tercitorial law al- lowing women the right of suffrago is an obstruction to the speedy solution of the “‘vexed question,' and ehould be repealed or annalled by congress. The commission say the law so far has been a decided success in excluding followed by the cflicers, who kept upa ranning fice. The flseing men, after doubling for several blocks, came upon two saddle horses standing at a rack; two of them mounted and started southwest, the third continued west: It is claimed that Clemens was away from home a good deal, on account of his Zbusiness as agent; for the Iowa Stock insurance company, and that Mrs, O. ‘‘got crooked,” so much so much 80 that her friends ‘‘tumbled to it.” BShetook in a lodger, and her husband comiog home found the cir- cumstances such that he fired himJout bag and baggage.
