Sexton, a lad 19 years of age, is sorry that he eloped last Thanksgiving, and his father, as his guardian, wants | the marriage annulled. | The latter part of last November young | Sexton, accompanied by a pretty girl, ap- plied to Clerk Ewing for a marriage li- | cense. .The clerk asked the woy if he | knew his age sufficiently well to swear | to it, and Sexton was positive that he was | born more than twenty-one years ago,and | he took the oath to that effect. As the young lady did not appear any too old to wear short frocks, the clerk made some inquiry of the young man, and he swore that she was over 18. The license was issued, and an hour later Miss Em- elic Hemple was the wife of Patrick A. Sexton. They took no one into their confidence for some time, but finally the news of the | elopement leaked out. _Sexton’s father | was very much annoyed over the affair, | and it is now stated that the young folks | never lived together as husband and wife. This afternoon xton Sr., as guar- | @ian of his son, filed an action seeking the | annulment of the marriage on the ground that at the time it occurred the lad was not 19 years old and could not legall | marry. “The father swears that the son's age is known to him and that he will not ve 21 for nearly two years.

HAVE Ponies. Dogs and Monkey | Dog and pony shows are not affairs to | go ifto rhapsodies over, but the man who | doesn't flnd pleasure in the tricks and antics of such intelligent animals as Pro- fessor Norris has in his charge must be indeed blase. g The performance is under the direction of Andrew Norrls. He must have a wonderful faculty for teaching horses, dogs, monkeys and goats, for the animals that took part in the show in Central Park last night seemed to be “letter per- fect” from start to finish. There was not an act from the beginning to the end that did not command close attention, and some of the special features wereso good as to warrant detailed description. There was a military drill by eight Shetland ponies, and then came a rep- resentation of a minstrel first part, in which thirty dogs participated. The dogs aig some great tricks in lieu of cracking jokes. Next there was a game of see-saw by ponies,after which there were a revolv- ing pyramid and a revolving tableau by ponies and dogs. It was the “business” of one of the dogs in the act that followed the tableau to be a “hard case.” He played the part admirably, and as a result a miniature police patrol-wagon, drawn by a dwarf among ponies, driven by a_ midget, and with the funniest little monkey you ever saw, gressed up in police garb, dashed into the ring. The monkey policeman jumped down from the “hurry up” wagon, seized the recalcitrant dog by the co waved a club just as a ‘“‘cop” would and then hustled the bad dog into the vehicle and away the wagon dashed again. Much Amusement. A MERRY TIME. s Afford the Little Ones A very intelligent ny named Rose-. bery answered a variely of questions pro- Eoundcd by Professor Norris, and finished is act by getting a whisk-broom from a desk and dusting his master's clothes, just as a valet would. Then there appeared the fattest kind of a nanny goat called Trilby, who walked the tightrope with a monkey riding bare- baTc'l‘( on her. Eiboihe tha & ere was skippin, rope by a pony, byl }&]Iogs and by gdr. Norris mdydos‘:s tg- gether. All the riding acts were eclipsed by the champion bounding jockey of the world, “Jim Robinson,” a large monkey, at- tired in tights, blouse and cap. Jim rideg standing erect on his hind feet, and to jump over banners or throw back somer. saults while his pony is TOI"S at full speed is mereflfustlme for him. The entertainment concluded with a very exciting fire scene. A small cottage, in which the McGinty famil; re:lse, caught fire, and the alarm was turned in. A moment later the animal fire depart- ment came dashing in at breakneck speed. The hook and ladder truck, drawn by ponies and manned by dogs, was the | first to arrive. Ladders were placed against the sides of the building, and the dogs climbed to the second story windows | and entered among the flames and smoke, returning _with smaller dogs in their mouths. They also carried out the furni- ture. By this time the hose-wagon had arrived, and a huge monkey ran up a ladder with the hose and ° direct a stream of water on to the flames until they were quenched. Only those who know how difficult it is to get a dog into | fire can appreciate how marvelously well | trained are these dogs. The show is advertised as moral and ' clean. It is not only that, but is highly entertaining. ¥ | | the growth of civilization and prev: | doctrine in T PEACE OVERTURES WERE REFUSED A Bitter War Now Going On Among the Children of Adolph Sutro. Dissension Over the Remowval of the Aged Millionaire From His Home. Dr. Emma Sutro-Merritt made overtures for peace to her sister, Miss Clara Sutrg yesterday morning, but she was repulsed with scorn. The family of the aged mil- lionaire and philanthropist is divided and the breach promises to become wider when the promised battle in the courts is opened. Dr. Emma Sutro-Merritt, the elder sister and legal guardian of her father, calledat the cozy home of the ex-Mayor at the Heights with the olive branch of peace, but Miss Clara Sutro bluntly refused to receive it and decliped to be reconciled | while her father was kept away from the to | home he built and where he hoped spend in peace the declining vears of his eventful life. Mrs. Merritt was scored in no unmistakable terms for forcibly car- rying the ill and imuecile old man away to a strange hearth when only a few days remained for him on this earth. Charles Sutro, a son of the man who made the Comstock famous, was present during the interview between the sisters, an he took sides against the woman who took the old man from his home when death was beckoning him. Neverthless, Dr. Sutro-Merritt main- tained that she was wholly within her rights and was consulting. = her father's best interests in removing him to her home. She advanced the fact of her hus- band’s illmess from asthma as an addi- tional reason for having her father close at hand. Her sister and brother were, however, not satisfied and shortly after left the house for the city whither Dr Merritt soon followed them. Attorney Reuben Lloyd was yesterday engaged in considering the legal aspects of the case from the standpoint of Miss Clara Sutro and hgr brother. SALOONS AND RUM SELLERS A Ruinpus Combination That Means Death to Civili= zation. Missionary Congress of the California ‘Woman’s Christian Temper- ance Union. A reception to commemorate the return of Miss Jessie Ackerman, generally known as the “argund the world miss ary,” was held at Calvary Presbyterian Church yesterday under the auspices of the California Woman's Christian Tem- perance Union. Delegates and repre- sentative ministers from all parts of the | State were in attendance, and many elo- quent addresses on the subject of intem- perance, its baneful effects In retarding nting the spread and dissemination of Christian the heathen world were given. The congress was formally opened with divine services at 10 o'clock in the morn- ing by Mr: and it continued in session the entire day, closing with a special programme in the evening. Among the prominent speakers of the afternoon were Rev. George C. Adams, ev. E. S. Chapman, Rev. §. 8. Cryor and Miss Ackerman. The prevailing topic upon which the several addresses were based was intem- perance and the appalling result of the iquor traftic. ev. E. S. Chapman spoke of the curse of liquor as the greatest retarding influ- ence that modern civilization maintained that the nation, unless it stopped the continual demoralizing influ- ence, would reap a whirlwind for its neg- ligence. “The $1000.000 that fs spent annually in | cher. California_ for rum,” said_the prea | “is the life blood of the State, and the $120,000,000 that is expended by the coun- try, taken as a whole, represents the radual decay of the nation. Rum para- yzes the church and places a_ban upon évery branch of civilization. God cannot afford to muitiply his church until we wash our hands of this unholy curse. The greatest evil to the church and the world to-day is the saloon, and if we hope to perpetuate our nation and our people we must protect the present generation and the generations to come by organizin, movement that, if it does not succeeed in blotting out the stain of intemperance en- tirely, will, however, lessen its ravages and attendant horrors. To commence this work of instituting the white banner in every civilized community in the country we have to first raise it hepe in this city, because we cannot hope to meet success by looking elsewhere and depending upon others.” — e Art to Help Charity.
