THE WOMAN IN THE CASE.
Mr. Frank Ma'ti.ews, formerly of
Miuichesicr, but now of Lyncbburg,
Va., evidently thinks be has been
gro.s-!y wronged, und be has tr.keD
steps toward wreaking vengeance upon
a comely woman with attractive hcar
iug, who, be thinks, playe 1 him false
straight through iu a clever role.
It will be remembered by renders of
the Times that Mr. Matthews was be?
fore the police court not lout: ago,
charged with threatening to do bodily
harm to Mrs. Kate McFarland, the
woman in the case. The te-timony was
d vclopcd that Mr. Matthews weut out
to the wilds of Dakota to secure a di
vorce from his wife, and while there
met Mrs. McFarland, who. it seems,
was in that section ol the country for
the purpose of securing a divorc i from
her husband, there being peculiarities
in the divorce laws of Dakoiu. Mrs.
McFarland is a native of Manchester.
She is said to be quite an attractive
v\oma:i of s'riking personality. She
soon succeeded in wielding a powerful
influence upon Mr. Matthews, aod
persuaded bim to >e!l out bis effects and
return to Virginia with her.
Not long after ihey returned to the
"sacred soil." it became evident that
Mrs. McFarland wns growing tired of
her latest acquisition. The result wt.s
that tbe lovers had a falling out, and
Mr. Mathews's ardor got the best ol
him to the extent that he became so
persistent in his efforts to see Mrs. Mc?
Farland that she had him aricsted,
aud some rath r spicy readin; got in?
to the papers on the subject.
Mrs. McFarland is ^:ill a familiar
figure on the streets of Mauernster,
and of late has figured as the her?
oine of a sensational publication in the
shape of a pamphlet of some thirty or
forty pages, gotten out by the man
who claims to be influenced in the mat?
ter solely by the purpose of showing to
the world what kind of a woman she
is who played him false. The pam?
phlet is entitled "A Parody on Love;
or a Modern Siren,'' and contains
the photographs of .Mr. Matthews, the
author, and tbe woman in the case. A
large number of them have been circu?
lated, and I have heard it stated that
they make fairly good reading for peo?
ple of a sensational turn of mind. The
pamphlet purports to give the history
of the romantic relations existing be?
tween the author aud the woman,
from the time they met ttutil she final?
ly threw him over for purposes of her
own. It contains copies of her love
letters from which it would appear
that t he couple were quite fond of etch
other. It is claimed by the author that
he spent from $6,000 to $8,000 on the
woman within nine months, and be
cltdms that he was followed all over
the country by her.
Mr. Matthews thinks he was very
badly treated by the woman who fig?
ures as the heroine of his publication.

Will of Millionaire Stevens.?
The will of the late .Tohu Stevens, of
Hoboken, N. V., was filed in the Hud?
son county Surrogate's office yesterday.
The estate amounts to $20,000,000.
Among the bequests is $20,000 to Trin?
ity church, in Hoboken. to wipe out n
debt of $14,000 on the church and leave
a fund of $6,000. After some minor be
quests the remainder of the estate is
equally divided between the widow,
Mrs. Mary M. Stevens, and the s >n.
John Stevens. Among the small gifts
are$5,000 to Lela B. Smith, of Berry
ville, Va., and $2,500 each to Burrell
McGuire, a brother iu-law, and Mrs.
Mamie McGuire, a sister-in-law. The
widow is uamed as executrix, and Col.
A. E. Stevens, a brother, and Palmer
Campbell, are the executors. The will
is dated January I, 1S93.
MlLITIA.?Tho field officers of the First
Brigade Virginia Infantry met in Bichmond
yesterday afternoon for the third time to
elect a brigadier general. At the last meet?
ing Lieutenant Colonel Pole, of the Second
Regiment, had determined to change his vote
from Nash to Nalle. but Colonel Nalle's
friends did not know this and, upon their
motion, the meeting adjourned without ac?
tion. It was then believed that at tho nest
meeting Colonel Nalle would be elected on
the first ballot, but a t .Icghun was received
yesterday from Warronton, saying that Colo?
nel Gaines, of the Third Regiment, was sick
in bed and could not attend. Gaint s's absence
left Colonel Nalle still with only six votes.
It was thought at one time that Colonel Nash
wou'd retire, but his friends insisted o*j keep?
ing bim in the race and so tho matter stood
on tho first ballot: Nalle, G: Nash. 5. Polo
voting for Nalle.
