The decision of Ihe propa-ganda in his case (which has not here-tofore been made public) was in effect that the doctor should be re-moved from his pastorate and make an apology or retraction for his action to the archbishop, lie was allowed a cer-tain time in which to do this, with the warning that if he failed to givo evi-dence of his penitence with' i Ihe al-lotted lime, a sentence of temporary suspension should be passed.

Arthur ltrow n was cocked and primed for war fed war when ho came into the third district court mom this morn-ing. He jierspired under the burden of an ai'iiiiul of law books with bits of paper sticking out at the odgvs mark-ing particular sections, ami he curried wilh him the dcteriuiuation of a leau man to make a hard tight. It was the time set by Judge Zano to hear tho argument in the l'age Ruiuel affair. The judge was there to deter-mine whether or not Mr. Kuniel were . entitled to make a Siamese twin of himself and be voted for under two names. The jndgo was on band early ami so was Mr. Uumel. The latter looked shaggy aud uneasy in a three days' growth of whiskers aud he watched the proceedings with great interest. Colonel Ferguson, the man who made the celebrated remark about fossilized eiubors of extinct camp lire, was there to represent the very man whom he bail called an ember. The colontd ga.ed coldly into space across his tiery mus-tache and though, up things to ray as Mr. Brown talked. Mr. .Stone, his as-sociate in the case, loaned forward eagerly and accentuated every sentence of Hi'uCvn's by corrugating his forehead in un involuntary frown. Mr. Brown came loaded not only for bear but for an entire inenugerje. When ho drew from some mysterious quarter In the heap of documents the answer of tho board to tho alternative writ of maiidnmus be nearly staggered under its weight. It was made up of type-written statements, clippings from newspapers, tally sheets, abstracts, aud what not. Mr. Ilroivn smiled fondly upon it as he gathered it iu to him and Mr Kan litis, who looked helpful and hopeful in a generally handy sort of way, smiled on it too. Mr. Kuwlins evidently was not ufraid of I ho enemy. As Mr. ltrown read it was entertain-ing to watch his countenance. A deaf man could readily have seen when he ouailo a poinl, for Mr. Brown's Is an eloquent face-- as eloquent as elastic. Ho had a way of looking a cold, bitter, denunciatory smile across his teeth, which must certainly have made Colo ncl Ferguson afraid, only Colonel Fer-g-ton is a colonel and afraid of noth-ing. Besides the answer, with tho tenor of which readers of TriK Timks are al-ready familiar, Mr. Brown had slum-bering in the heap an affidavit of inter-vention from Mr. Uumel personally, whereby the latter lu choice legal terms declared that the elTorl lo make him out half a man with two names is nuerile nnd unworthy of notice. Mr. Rumel believed he ought lo have all tho voles cast for any Kuuiel whatsoever, for ho was know n to be the only mem-ber of the clan who was out for oilier. Alter reading all the documents Mr. Blown entered upon Ihe argument. Then it was that his plastic countenance wrapped itself around the expressions of: Ocnsute. Penuneiation. Inquiry. insinuation. Sarcasm. Jocularity. Conviction. Entreaty. Declaration. Invitation. 'There were a few ideas expressed as he went along declaring thai the only way to gel at the truth of the mailer in dispute is to open the ballot boxes and count the vole. 'What does Mr. I'ngo want" asked Ihe court. "Is it that he Malits what be believes bo is not entitled to that b ob-jects to going back lo the ballot boxesT If the votes cast are for John II Riimul, then, according to the board's interpre-tation. Mr. Page is elected If for John II. P.tlinel, jr., he is not. Surely he does not Hani what he is not entitled to. If he wants the certificate, and hasn't a plurality well. lie cannot have it without a light." Continuing Mr. Brown said, indicat-ing one of tho documents sent in by the election judges: "The judges sign this and certify to it as beincr correcl, according to Ihe rules of tne I tali commission nut according to law." Mr. Brown argued up to dinner time, and then the other sido took a hand. SHOT AT SHORT RANCE. A Munlarat t.m4 Hill, Ark., Rjr IUit-lu- l lhrr I.kmi llu.i.. Ark.. Aug. SS.

HIT tllIILL10M Douglas Stanfield'g Suit For a Fortune Revives His Marriage to a New Orleans Creole. A RICH GRANDFATHERS FAVORITE Lotg Before the Old Man Died aud Made His Will He Was Out of His Head. Skw Yohk, Aug. 2$. Douglas Stan-licl-heir under tho will of Mark Stau-ticl-came to town front New Orleans today to defend his claims against the attack niado ttpou them by his father and Uncle. Mark Stanliel'd in 1872 was worth $1,500,000. He lost nearly all his fortune in tho great Boston tire, but at the time of his death was the proprietor of the Victoria Hotel in this city and was estimated to be worth $500,000. Ho had three sons Henry, the eldest, George and Hugh. In i'm Henry went south aud there met Miss Florentine Totu nes, a beautiful Creole, the daugh-ter of a member of the board of under-writers of New Orleans. He married her against his father's wishes and brought her to this city to live. She lived with hira here a year ami then re-turned to New Orleans hor friends say because he did not treat her well. She never returned to Xew York. Mark Gtanfield died in April, this year, and iu his will bequeathed to his son Hugh the interest on $25,000 during his life, to George the interest on $20,-00- 0 during his lite, to Henry the inter-est on $10,000 during his life, to Mrs. Florentine Stanrield the interest on $20,-00- 0 during her life, and all the rest of his estate, amounting to over $425,000, to his grandson Douglas, son of Henry, who was born shortly after his mother returned to New Orleans, and who is now 17 years old. The Knickerbocker Trust company was made executor of the estate and trustee of tiro funds. The will was offered for probate last week aud notice of contest was served by the three brothers on the ground that their father was not in his right mind wnen he niado the will, aud that ho was unduly iulluenced by Mrs. Flor-entine Staulield. Henry Stantield is a member of tho Union league club and is well known by club men in New York. Since the contest of the will begau, his married life has been discussed as well as the relations of his father to Mrs. Stanfield and her son. Mrs. Stanlield's lawyer said today that Henry Stanlield desert-ed his wife within a year alter their marriage and that he remained away from her for six years. During that time her son was born and she lived with her mother and brothers iu New Orleans. In 1877 Henry returned to New Orleans, sought her out and promised to re-form aud become a devoted husband. These promises he did not keep, sho alleges, and she refused to have any-thing more to do with him. Finally his conduct became such that she applied to the courts for a legal separation from him and secured it, Ho left the city some time afterward and for nearly twelve years she has seen nothing of him and has only heard of him through his father. The past three years she kept up a correspondence with her father-in-law- . Tho letters which Mark Stanlield wrote, the lawyer says, are of an affectionate nature and clearly show that he intended to provide for his grandson when he died. The lawyer further said that Mark Stantield told many of his friends iu this city before his death that he intended leaving his fortune to his grandson. Henry Stantield was not in the city today. His brother George, w ho is in business in Fourteenth at rent, said that the trouble between Henry and Mrs. Stanlield was her fault. "My father and her father were opposed to the marriage in the first place." he said. "My brother was my father's favorite, and he wanted his companionship. They were both lovers of music, and father did not want him to marry. When he was married, though, and brought his wife here, father purchased a house for them. They did not live very happily. Khc did not make his homo as pleasant as she might have done. When she went naek to New Orleans it. was against bis wishes and the wishes of my father. After she had gone Harry went to Europe to finish his education. When he returned he went to New Or-leans and lived wilh his wife there. He tried to induce her to como with hint, but she would not, and ho came back alone. He did not see her again until two vears ago. when; he returned lo NewOrleaus against my father's wish and lived with her until he received a telegram telling him of his father s seri-ous illness. He knew nothing about her having obtained a separation from him and he was tb'indcr-struckwhe- n until a year ago, he heard of it. 1 he spoken of by Mrs. Stantield lawyer was not made to Mrs. Stanlield alone It was to her and her husband, and they were living together when it was made." Rcarding the character of the undue influence it is alleged was used to get-In- s father to make his will in favor of Douglas Stanlield. tlio brother said: It consisted chiefly of letters which Mrs Stantield wrote to him to prejudice iiiiii' against my brother. We have copies of the loiters she wrote, and those he wrote in reply. which Mrs. Stan-lield's The-- c are the letters lawyer has copies of, and he thinks the'v . w ill . be good evidence o that Mr. Stanlield intended to do what prove he did long before he made Ins will. George Stanfield farther said that for a long time before his death his r was out of his head,., and he was susceptible to any influence that might be exerted. In tSe letters that Mrs. Stanlield wrote, he said, she represen-ted that she was illtreated and neg ted bv her hnsband, and thus1 so worked mind that he on the old gentleman practically cut Henry off in the will be Mre.

A Wonderful Well Uuwa in h- ladlan ... ' ' Null, V" . I'akim, Tex., Aug. 28. A strange is reported from tho Indian nation. A few days ago a while man, Chas. Gooding, living near (Woodland, a station on the. Frisco rvad iu tho Choc-taw nation, employed an Irish well dig-ger, Mike Diihancy, to sink a well on his place. Duhaney began work and had reached ft depth of fif) feet. At noon on Saturday, after eating dinner, his assistants began lowering him back into the well to resume work, but he had hardly gone down 2ll feet when ho screamed to them to pull him out quick, that he was burning up. As hurriedly as possible ho was hoisted out, but on reaching the surface was unconscious and it required two hours' hard work to restore him. He was found iu a pitiable condition, his clothing being sc irched until they crumbled nt the touch, aud his body was fearfully blistered. The intense heat seemed to rise from the bottom, and a coat lying on the windlass, and the rope wound around it, wore all charred until they broke into fragments at a touch. No flame could bo seen. Simply an intense heat was fell. The deni.ens of thi neighborhood nr: not puzzled, but badly scared, as they do not know what will next happen, their mildest idea being that a volcano slumbers beneath them. .
