I Opponents Claim 70 Ballots Aro Illegal. On that Monday young Foster and Miss Jordan were married by Rev Dr Houghton. In the presence of the bride's mother and one or two other witnesses, though none Identified with the theatrical profession. The happy couple spent their honeymoon at the imperial hotel, one of the swellest of New York's hostelerles, the groom, meanwh.le. establishing a correspondence wth his father, who, until that time had been in Ignorance or the prospective addition of a pretty young woman to his household.

Whatever the nature of the correspondence, at the end of a week, the groom took a tender farewell of his bride and went to Ctlca. to try to arrange matters by his personal presence under the parental roof. Aleanwhile. Airs Foster had to live, and funds not being forthcoming from her husband, it Is said, she was obliged to accept an engagement from Air Chamberlyn to appear in Allladl. Airs Foster, or Jessie Jordan, as she will con.mue to be.

while on the stage, would -not be called pretty, at first glance. But she Is more than that she is charming and It is easy enough to understand how young Foster so quickly gave his heart Into her keeping. She has a plump little figure, I as light on her feet as a fairy and has been playfully nicknamed by her associates Jelly, because, when she dances, her plump cheeks quiver, in harmony with her movements, like a tumbler of Jelly. She belongs In San Francisco. She has bright, dark eyes, a nose a bit retrousse, a face full of Innocent laughter, a sweet voice and an air of childish Innocence, and her copper colored hair is worn In a big pompadour, somewhat suggestive of the style of Japanese girls.

No one who has ever met her can fail to wish that her romance may yet turn out happily, and that her desire to retire from the glamor of the footlights to private life may be realized ere long. If Thrown Out Carens WoulcL Take Office. I( Question Very Likely to Go to the Courts. NEWBURYPORT. Dec 13 The recount of votes cast In the in this city was finished t-night, and with surprising result.

The ward returns on election night seemed to show that Alosea Brown was elected by a plurality of two votes. He ran on stlckers. Tonights recount gives Brown a plurality of 21 over his democratic F. Carens. But there are 70 odd Brown ballots upon which the stickers are so placed that it Is claimed by Brown opponent that they are defective.

Should they bo thrown out It will result In the election of Carrens. Exhaustive arguments for and against the legality of the ballots In question were made tonight before the registrars o' voters by counsel for each side, ard the assemblage which was in the city hall adjourned at 11. till Monday at 2 when the decision as to the cisput-ed ballots will probably be announced. Whichever way the decision goes, the question will quite possibly get before the courts. TRESTLE GAVE WAY.

The mob was composed of nearly 10OO people.

SOOTH AFRICAN JAM. Prepared from the Pawpaw and the Loquat fox' the British Market.

South Africa is now adding its share to the et supply of fruit which pours Into the markets of the United Kingdom from all parts of the world. Unfortunately, however, many of the typical native fruits of our newly acquired territories are of such a character that it is not poss ble to send them to this country in the fresh state on account of the length of the sea voyage. Therefore, there is no alternative but to send them in the form of Jam, or preserved In some other way. Of these Jams the best known, and the only one really on the British market ytt. is the Cane gooseberry jam, a preserve in color between that ot apricot and grocr, gage, with a pleasant acid flavor, and sure to become a favorite when generally known.

The fruit belongs to the belladonna, or deadly n.ghtahade family, without having, of course, its poisonous qualities. Why it is called the Cape gooseberry is a ntvstory, as it is not the least like or.e to look at. and Is of South American origin. Guava jellv is a delicacy that is promised to us in quantity as soon as the sword is replaced bv the spade. Hitherto the West Indies have been practically the only source of supply, but the Chi-n sc guava, which ts the variety cm-pioyeif i the- manufacture of the jelly, thrives admirably r.

South Africa. There is a small red berry, known as Vhe ainaumgula. which much resembles the red currant both in form and flavor and makes capital jm, being also comparatively free trom the innumerable seeds which fo-m such a drawback to the employment of the currant in the manufacture of preserves. The loquat is a small yellow berry of almost mulberry like flavor, and aother excellent hm while in Natal a fruit called the pawpaw is largely used for the same purpose. Paw-pa vv ic.ni, hovv.vtr, is too much like apple jam to le ever likely to be sent here in any quantity, though as a novelty some people will like to try it.

At 7 this evening the field, which had shrunken to four teams Fisher and Fredericks havirg dropped out, being assured of fifth money, as Waller was of sixth begin to ride hard. Kaser went upon tiie track and rode slowly for a lap. Gougoltz then cut loose and start- cd lor a gain. The Frenchman opened 1 up a gain cf 13 yards, when Kaser waa seen to sprint a Gougoltz approached, i 1 (ip German pared Gougoltz, but despite their effort AIcEtchern and McFarland caught them, preventing a lap.

For this Piece of team work a lap was taken from the store of Kaser and Ryser, but a tney have fourth place clinched it made no difference. The race had now developed into an International contest. Two foreigner on the track, one to help Gougoltz, as against the American and Canadian teams which were dui the leading. As It became apparent the referee ordered the German and Swiss teams off the track. An hour later while McFar-j lard.

McEachern. Elkes. Pierce and Gougoltz were fighting h)rd for a gain I after many laps had been ridden in very fast time, McFarland and Elkes were thrown, but according to the rules the lap lost was not counted against the team. To defeat Gougoltz alone the other teams changed men every five minutes, but desp.te their efforts the Frenchman held them all. Waller Drops Out.

The early hours of the last day of the contest found only five teams riding of the 14 pairs of trained cyclists who started at 13.05 last Monday morning. At midnight Friday there were six teams, but at 2.30 this morning Frank Waller the veteran, gave up tne tusk. This naturally caused Billy Stinson, tne Gambridae boy, who was his partner, to sleep lndi finitely with no more thought of hard laps. Waller had discovered that It was of no use for him to continue, lnasmucn as ho was over a mile behind, and moreover no one could take the sixth prize the last one from the brokenhearted German. Waller has suffered some from falls, but he confessed today that he thought that "Old Dutch was getting too old, and that his bones and iron muscles could stand the gaff no more.

With the withdrawal of Waller and Stinson the Boston delegation of the Press cycling club had been wiped from the slate and the Boston men present and there were many of them were -a blue aggregation. Their color was worse than the purpl- In the P. C. sweaters. Kaser.

the diminutive German, with anything but a beautiful appearance, started out with his customary terrific sprints, and for six laps he shot around the bowl with the other teams after him like a pack of hounds. His mind was made tip to score that lap or drop In his tracks as Frederick, the Swiss, and his mate. "Monzeer Fischaire, were hut one lap behind them. Kaser scored the lap amidst tremendous cheers. The Great French Team.

All this time that magnificent pair of riders, little Caesar Simar and his partner Jean Gougoltz, were arousing the Interest of the several thousand spectators with thtir desperate and despairing efforts to gain the lap (176 yards) which separated them from Elkes, McFarland, McEachern ind Fierce. The unfortunate French team lost a lap last Tuesday afternoon, caused by the tire on Gougoltz machine puncturing, and ever sit ce they have fought to make it up. Most teams would have given up the terrible struggle, but Gougoltz and Si-mar never let up for a second. The northeast corner cf the garden has been filled with supporters of the team ever since the race started and every sprint of Simar or his partner, Gougoltz. brought forth repeated cries of "Vive la France.

Gougoltz et Simar. Not only did the Frenchmen cheer the pair, but they were the favorites of the spectators. The American and' Canadian teams feared none but the gay Parisians. Harry Elkes is a great sprinter, McFarland the handicap king of America, Archie McEachern a first-class all-round man, and Burns Pierce another, but any time Simar, only 21 years old, wanted to go by he left the bunch as If it were standing still. His jump was like a streak of lightning, but he couldn't keep up the pace.

Gougoltz can stand the hardest plug-: ging, and although not possessed of the lightning sprint of Simar was ns Jast as the fastest. They had the leaders worried. and Simar deligh'ed in uncorking the sprint and forcing them to ride their hardest to catch him, when he would then ease up and laugh. He sorely troubled McFarland, and hurt the latters feelings by working his sprint on him all the time. He worked his fake lap-stealing game, until the Americans did not know whether he really meant to get the 176 yards or not.

Gougoltz Cuts Iioose. At 6.30 this morning Gougoltz cut loose: around the track like a bloodhound In search of his prey the handsome Frenchman sped with lightning rapidity. The sleepers were suddenly awakened by roars of trainers, managers and everything else, and bedlam broke loose. He got a half lap when Simar, his mate, with eyes ablaze at the' thought of gaining the long sought for lap, went out and relieved him. Simar increased the lead and lapped Kaser and Fisher, but by the time he was well under way every man except Gougoltz left In the race, was on the track.

The rules declared it to be a foul for two riders of the same team to ride together for more than a lap. The majority of the spectators and many of them who are dose followers of cycle racing declared that Elkes and McFarland were guilty of the foul, and were deserving of the penalty inflicted in such cases, namely, loss of one lap. The referee, Walter Wilson, did not see It in that light, and the American team had the came score as formerly. There was a possibility that a foul was committed, though unintentionally, in the tremend' us excitement of the moment. After that the French team, although believing themselves unfairly treated, continued in company with Kas'T end Fisher and ding-dong sprints which slowly played McFarland out.

It was the first race of its kind In which the senior member of the ex "I and Stevie team had ever competed in, and he swore it would be his last. He suffered several bad falls In the early part of the contest, the effects of which, coupled with a bad cold and an acute attack of laryngitis, put him in such a condition that a prominent New York physician declared after examining him this morning that he should not ride another lap, as his case was critical: This did not worry Mae. He kept right on and his finish showed the material in his makeup. In Elkes, the Fails shadow. who was another lanky rider like himself.

McFarland had for a partner a man who was apparently the freshest rider of the 10. Elkes Did the Work. Elkes did the work when It came to a tough struggle. Half-hour relays were in order during today's racing. Oftentimes a rider was off lis heel but a few minutes wnen he was forced to again jump into the race to make up distance lost by his partner.

Kaser was kept on the jump, as his partner, Hyser. who. although a first-class distance man, was slow at times, caused by an attack of rheumatism and bodtiy suuertng trom the terrible sprinting. Stimulants were of course In order and varied all the way from beef tea. port wine, champagne and rye whisky to different brands of "dope.

The Frenchmen received considerable champagne and other things. To be sure no camp would aeknowl- ledge giving dope to its riders, but to (one who knows the effects of some of These men will be just as good as ever, if not better, by the Liter part of next week.

Prince Albert of Monaco is Endeavoring to Have His Latgst Marriage Annulled Wants towed Again.

PARIS, Dec 13 It is not a divorce which Prince Albert of Monaco is now endeavoring to secure from his American-born Wile, but an annulment of the marriage, which would not only liberate him from all financial obligations toward her, but liaewise deprive her of the title of princess of Monaco, besides paving the way to his third marriage with gome princess of the bi.ooa, tne name or the Widowed dueness 6t Aosta, omy sister of tne Princess Louise and Victor Bonaparte, being freely mentioned In connection witn this matrimonial project. The grounds on which the prince is seeking to secure an annulment ot his union to the daughter of the New Orleans banker, Alicnael Herne, are that there was a senous legal flaw In tne marriuee. I His first matrimonial alliance was with Lady Mary Hamilton, tne wedding taking place tne presence of Emperor Nupoieon and Empress Eugeni tnls city. This marriage was subsequently annulled ecclesiastically by tne Vatican on the representation of Lady Alary that she had been forced Into the match against her will, tne decree at the same time recogniz.ng as legitimate the child born of the union. Prince Louis, who is now heir to the throne of Monaco.

This decree was confirmed by the late prince of Aronaco In July, 1880. But Prince Alberts first marriage had been contracted In France while r.e was still heir apparent, and consequently entitled to no extra territorial privileges, ranking merely as a French nobleman; that is to say, as duke of Alazarin, of Valen-tmose and of Alayenne. But In 180 there was no such tning as divorce the French code, the divorce laws now in existence only coming into operation several years latef. In 1859 Prince Albert married In France Alice Teine. widow of the French duke of Richelieu, without having taken any steps to have either the Vatican decree of annulment or the Monaco decree of his first marriage recognized and confirmed by the French divorce courts.

Indeed, on the register of marriages of the 8th district of paris, where the second marriage of the prince took place II years ago, the word divorce is not mentioned, the only reference to the princes first wife being a -remark that he had previously married Lady Mary Hamilton. According to French law the prince was, therefore, not free to wed the widowed duchess of Richelieu in 18S9, having neglected to take the necessary legal steps to liberate himself from his matrimonial bonds. -Hence his second, marriage Is from the point of view of French law invalid and even bigamous. It may be argued that tha prince as a reigning sovereign Is exempt from the urisdiction of tl.e French courts. But the very fact that he should have appealed to the latter to rid him of his American born wife Indicates that he is willing to recognize their competence, in which he is undoubtedly right, for, besides being prince of Monaco he is, as stated above, a French nobleman and territorial magnate.

Both his marriages have been con-traetel in France. His principal residence i3 in this city, and the principality of Monaco are within both the civil and criminal jurisdiction the French courts.

Lawson's statement thwt the lines of his defender will not be given out until the llrlBtol boat is well under way put this yachting community on its dignity. The infi-rerce is that no opportunity will be given the IierreshofTs to profit by the strikingly new and original lines upon which Crownlnshicld is basing bis hope for the Bostonians success. Bostor.la however, as the Lawson boat will be named, has no tcror for -Nat Herreshoff, who is losing no sleep cvei tiie copper kings precaution. JJis plan were prepared 12 months ago, ami perfected within the past three month, and the next cup defender wdll be built along these lines without the deviation of a hairs breadth. This statem.

lit was obtained today from it Herreshoff worker who, has assisted in the construction of every fast yacht turned out hy the Bristol firm within file past 13 years. He added -that Capt Nat is certain that he has perfected a design which will give him material Inc-case of speed over the Columbia: and will be satisfied if the Boston designers creation can outfoot toe yacht to be built here, as In It will be contained al! the finest work the firm is capable of doing ail that researen, Kperiment and observation have taught Cupt Aut, her designer, and no doubt fit here as to the outcome. ihe Orowinnsnieiu-La wson plan of revealing ail tneir plans, once the boat Is well under way, will not be Imitated here. It hus never been the Heireshotf idea to tae the public into its con-Uuence, nor is it proposed to give the nerny any precise data upon which to light future battles against Herreshoff productions. It is for this reason that no one yet knows the exact lines or amount of lead that enters into the kedls ot the Defend cr and the Cwluninla, nor what particular feature formed Capt Nats chief reliance for speed In these two wnrlJ-ls aters.

Wheu Watson copied, so far as he could consistently, the Defender and the Vigilant, he was years behind, as lie tailed to allow for improvements in design which the quick eye of Capt Nat had noted. Now, as tortile plans for the new Herreshoff cud defender. It was an open question with many yachtsmen two years ago whether the Columbia would move foster than the Defender, a three-veur-old type of yacht at that time. The question is revived this year anent the latest creation, and as it was answered In the tuning-up trials in 1894, 1 so it will be answered ailirmativeiy next spring. While little is known positively of the lines Cant Nat has followed this time, there are several men in Bristol who are fully competent to hazard a pretty close surmise, and they agree that the ism defender now under construction will not be a radical departure from the Columbia type.

One ot these men who have something to do with preparing the plana for the new yacht admitted that she would be a far more powerful boat than the Columbia. able to carry an Immense sail spread, perhaps 14.U0Q square feet of canvas when suing the wind, and that her lines would he easier to drive than were the Columbias last year. There will be no more wood used In the 1901 cup champion than can be avoided, while bronze will bo the plating from keel top to deck rails. The Herreshoff design and contract for a boat faster on all sailing pi-iuts than the Columbia, but It is expected that going to windward will prove her particular forte In comparison with the old cup defender. The sire and shape of the keel ate important p.int3 in the yacht, and these are being closely guarded, as Is the sail plan, which promises to he a revelation.

It anything, hvwover, the new yacht will le materially lighter than the old. The bronze- plating will be somewhat thinner, the steel ribs not so heavy and rv sivLo v) 1 iu a tli-in (Vin rvl Kto'o draft proha! less than the Columbias. The keel is expected to weigh fully 9G tons, probably eight tons heavier than the Columbia's. The cutting' away of the forefoot Is expected to produce more speed In stays, while the undetboi; floor vill be much flatter, with a greater hollow where the midship section turns from the keel, which sh ulil add to speed in reaching nd, spinnaker work. The rake of the stern post will not be less than 45, and It would not be surprising if it ts even Ft.

til the keel is cast it will be difficult to get pret tse Information concerning its dimensions It will be about three feet thick at its widest part near the Stern. Frames for the after part of the keel mold have been set up and indicate this. None of the nickel steel frames have as vet arrived.

Experiments were made with it several years ago without success. The thickac-s of the plating, 3-0 cf Inch, is expected to effect a sa.ing 1-40 in weight over the Coluin- Vill met which was 7-40 of an ick. and to balance the extra weight vU into the keel.

The illicit extraction and robbery gold In Siberia has long been one of the greatest difficulties with which the Russian officials and mining authorities east of the Urals have had to contend.

News has just reached St Petersburg of a particularly striking instance of the way in which the rich gold deposits along the river system beyond lake Baikal have been plundered by whole colonies of adventurers and vagrants of every description. Some time ago a number of these men discovered a fresh El Dorado of unusual richness on the Korolon, a small stream running into the Vitim, a tributary of the Lena, where private claims had already been marked out, but not yet occupied. A justice of the peace from Chita, with seven Cossacks-and other attendants, repaired to the spot, and found a very large, well organized and prosperous free community of gold seekers, with a row of no less than 89 tents and shanties. They had all the necessary tools and appliances for working the precious metal, and also large stores of provisions. which had been brought thither partly on rafts and partly by reindeer across the mountains, and which were being sold at enormously high prices.

Alost of the miners decamped at once on the appearance of the authorities, about 300 of them remaining behind. These were induced to depart only after 25 of their number had been put under arrest, but a few days later, when the Justice had left, they returned in greater force and defied the Cossack guards to interfere. Another expedition, with more Cossacks. had to be sent, and an attempt was then made to confiscate all their goods and provisions, but as they pleaded the danger of starving to death in the Taiga, and promised to disappear if allowed to take everything with them, they were all let off scot free. They were too numerous, too well armed and determined to admit of any harsher treatment at the hands of the small force sent against them.

William Kibbey, Who Says Hes from Ham vard, Arrested in Brooklyn After a Cadet Girl" Soubrette. NEW YORK, Dec 15 Wm. Kibbey, 21, ivho says ho is a student-at Harvard college, was arrested tonight in the lobby of the Amphlon theater, Williamsburg, on a charge of matquerading In a false beard. Pauline Chase, an attractive blonde, who is playing in the "Csjdet Girl, at the Amphlon, went to the Climes st police station, and v. ith tears and sobs begged for his release from custody.

Acting Capt Hayes refused to be mwed by the young woman's plea, and Kffi-bey was locked in a cell. He taiJ that his jxirents lived in Iowa, and that for several days past he had been living in a boarding house in Williamsburg. The manager told the police that young Kibbey and five other Harvard students had met Aliss Chase and other members of his company while they were playing in Boston the week before Thanksgiving. The company was playing In New Haven the day of the Yale-Harvard football game, and the young men renewed their acquaintance with the girls. They followed the company, he said, for two weeks.

Finally all of the young men went back to their studies with the exception of Kibbey, who had become greatly attached to Aliss Chase. Three nights ago manager Chamber-lain says Klbbev lit a match In the audience when the lights were all down. It was evidently intended as a signal to Aliss Chase to show her where he was seated. The blazing up of the match attracted considerable attention and some one cried fire. A panic was narrowly averted.

and Kibbey was put out and told to stay out. He has returned nightly since and attempted to gain admission, but has been barred. Tonight, according to the manager, Kibbey disguised himself In the false whiskers in order to get by the doorkeeper, who had orders to prevent his entrance. The doorkeeper recognized him and tried to pull off his whiskers, but they were glued on. Policeman Carroll was then called in and arrested the youth.

Aliss Chase pleaded in vain with manager Chamberlain to save her sweetheart from prison. She was allowed to spend a- few moments at his cell In the prison and left, promising to be court tomorrow morning. DESIGNS SUBMARINE BOAT. Supposed Burglar Turns Out to be an Inventor. POUGHKEEPSIE, Dec 15 The alleged burglar who was captured 'at New Hamburg early yesterday morning, and after being confined In a box car in lieu of a lockup nearly all day, was committed to the county jail to await the action of the grand jury, turns out to be an unusual prisoner.

When searched a number of well-executed drawings were found on his person. Aluch against his will the drawings were examined by Sheriff Smith, who found them to be designs for a submarine boat constructed on a novel principle. The prisoner said that he wa3 the author of the designs, and that the boat was his invention. At his request the sheriff declined to describe the plans and restored the drawings to him. The man gave his name ds Jean De Peamal.

and sajs he is a French Canadian. He had been in New York on an unsuccessful search for work. in a deserted Icehouse near New Hamburg, where the man had been lodging, were found some pencils and squares, showing that he had been working on his designs there. He dentes that he had any intention of committing a burglary, but was examining the broken glass in the grocery store when he was arrested. DEATH OF E.
