The description of l'nvltt as a Ho heinlnti aimisita his friends In Paris. Kver since hU marriage he lias kept up a studio t Xeww)rt, where bin wife refused to live, fearing that her residence In the city of millionaires might Injure her father's chances for the presidency. In Paris he moves In the .best social and artistic circles. He said tod.iy. 'Hvery one of the chnrges given out from Lincoln are lien, and KuUi'k letters to me and her fatlier'g prove It. I Intend to content the suit anil they may be sure that I 'will fight to the end. Onethlng I must say Is that I don't think the suit was brought by Ruth of her own free will. There is undue Influence on tho part of others. I understand perfect ly well that I am going Into a fight In which tho odds are against me, for the suit Is to be brought lu Nebraska.

"I see that they have dropped thu charge of desertion. That Is -well, foi they knew that It would not ritnnd for a movement In the face of the evidence I have. The charge of non support Is another UaiielesK lie. It Is a He. too. that Mr. llrynn ever found Ruth In want In Denver. She ahvas had money from me. and on January HI 1 sent, a usual, her mouths' allowance, ad raft cm !. Pran-'o-Ainorlcan bank of Paris for $2.ri00. The Lincoln statement -a -i they do not know my address v.i they had to serve notice by publi cation. This Is another falsehood. Ra h wrote me, weekly, llryan -wrote and even Allen had my address when he wrote me :i"klug me to consent j to a snapshot divorce. My witnesses fron: Denver and New Orleans will gle a very 'Mfforont account of this matter. I say nothing against Ruth. Until now 1 have never said a word In 1 rcp! to all the rumors ami nllcgu I Hons, but I shall not stcind for any iino-e Por the sake of my sou and . ilauuhter and for my own sake, I can not permit this unjust divorce to hi grunted on Krouuds both false and slanderous."

Peace pact Between Rival Tongs Ex pires Tomorrow Trouble Sure. San Francisco, Feb. 9. The dragon of war Is showing Its teeth In China town today nnd there Is a feeling of uneaslrcss among San Francisco ce lestials, owing to the fact that the peace pact entered Into by the war ring Suey Don and On Ylck tongs will expire tomotrow. as a result of the feud, two On Ylck members nne one Suey Don man have already !een killed. In order that the Chi nese New Year .might be celebrated In peace and amity, the rival tongs agreed to suspend further murderous activities until February 10. The tem porary treaty of peace will become Ineffecflte tomorrow, and further outbreaks of the murderous hatred that exists In the ranks of the two tongs are confldenly nntlclKited. The Suey Dons allege that the On Ylcks are craven and cowards and are not playing the game ac cording to rule, because of the fact that tho latter tong has appealtd to the courts of the white devils to bring about the punishment of the Suey Dons resionslble for tlie mur der of the two On Ylck men .Ia-a Hong and Won Lung. The On Ylcks hnve promised to assist the prosecut ing attorney In bringing the assail ants to Justice, and have employed a prominent locnl attorney to assist the prosecution. This action has nroused the Suey Dons to Impotent wrath, not unmixed with fear, and a iiertnanent peace pact may yet UNTIL FEB. 1, 1909 I will sell all new carpets (and I have all kinds) at and below cost full roll or a single pattern.
