ARRIES WOMAN WHO SUED iM. Herbert Janes, “the Model Love- Letter Writer,” Makes Mrs. Marion S. May His Bride, to “Surprise of Friends. The Dashing Widow Prosecuted Him for Breach of Promise, but She Said She Would Much Prefer Him to His Money. Herbert Janes, sometimes known as “The Model Love Letter Writer,” has married Mrs. Marion S. May, who sued him for $25,000 for breach of promise @ome months ago. When she brought sult she announced that she would much rather have Mr. Janes than his $25,009, and, not to be out- done in generosity, he asserted he never Would cease to love Mrs. May, even though he had employed counsel to tignt her sult, The breach of promise sult was only Fecently settled out of court, and terms, {t was thought, that would pi clude the opposing parties from meeting again on terms of friendship. Yet when Mr, Janes brought Mrs. May on Satur- day to the Rev. Dr. Houghton's study he gave him his word that there was no Teason why they should not be married In Breach of Promixe Case. The wedding Is a great surprise to Mr, Janes's family, who have not altered their attitude toward Mrs. May. Mr. Janes admitted that it was his brother Arthur who had {ofluenced him against Mrs. May. It was another brother, Henry ©. Janes, who several years ago suc- Ceeded in getting him out of an entan- glement with a Mrs. Cora McClintock, a widow with a rather lively record in St. Louis and Chicago. This affair re Bulted in a breach of promise suit for $10,000 and a $50.00 slander suit against Arthur Janes, both of which were set- tled out of court. In the presentation of Mrs, McClin- tock’s sul', es came to the front as a fervid letter writer. Here Is one of his effusions after Mrs. McClintock had filed her sult: “T cannot tell you how {t will all end, but I only know that I love you, Can you bear penury by my side. dear, !fmy brother will not compromise? O Cora, M( is seldom rhat a wo monopolizes @ man’s heart as you have mine. I want nothing but you, Money. position, kinship, ambition, all have become as nothing, and it $s your love and beauty | My darling, write | ‘that my heurt craves. me that we are joined in this life for- ever: that nothing can make us swerve for an instant in our duty for each other." Ten Years Senior. Mrs. McClintock was a middle- aaa woman at this t!me, ten years tho y man’s senior, He evidently yie mise was made with her she dropped out of his life. Three years later he met Mrs. very dashing widow, who lived at the Hotel Gerard, She was seen frequently with him at the Calumet and New York Athletic clubs on ladies’ nights. Much Surprise was expressed Inst March when she filed het sult for breach of promise. After the case was in court Janes's letter-writing proclivities again came to May, a the front. He sent Mrs, May the ful- lowing: Dear Marion: Alone in my room, wretched and of the old feeling to Tift the pall from my life this night! Then follows a long account of the Aroubles he has had with his family on account of his attachment for her, He goes on: Od, Marion! I care nothing for your sult, Throw It away and let us begin life anew ave not told any one of It would rejoice ol: ce. But why should 1 send this? fMorence to you.

Her er, David Herschfeld ved to have he answer stricken out as scandalous and untrue, but it was denied, ‘was then resumed with bitterness Terry Smith, of counsel for Mr. Janes, said to-day that the breach of promise guilt had recently been withdrawn, but that Mr. Janes's marriage was a great surprise. ‘More he would not say. ——— BEATS DR.
