SMITH’S SAY. a The Man Who Cut Mrs. Unfolds a Tale. Sterling -— A Lively Story About Jerry Bennett and a Speculation in Hogs. A Card From W.lliam O. Smitb, Written in the Jail. - — —.— in for a Passing Mr. Gif. Bantz Comes Notice. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: City JAIL, April 28.—Please insert this in your paper. In looking over the G.-D. of Saturday I see several statements from par- ties that are totally ignorant of the affair be- tween Mrs. Sterling and myself, and as for the Times-Journal reporter and his budget of lies, I simply say of him, if 1 remember his figure correctly, that ifthere were a little taken off his lower extremetiies (which, from their looks, be could spare several feet) and added to his brain, he probably could speak the truth, at least in a few instances. As regards Mrs. Sterling’s statement I shall say nothing until the day of trial in the court- room. But as regards Bennett’s statement in the G.-D. I shall] speak out and say that it is a trumped up lie from beginning to end. He said that I had come over to St. Louis with Mrs. Sterling and gotten hold of money that belonged to ber. Thatis as false as he is himself. When we left home I had in my pocket 8805 and Mrs. 8. bad $150. She bought a seal-skin sacque and a pair of fur gloves from Lewis & Groshon. 7 and I paid out of the money I had $200 for them. We went home on the late train, but it did | not stop at Summerfield; so we got off. at Leb- anon. There we hired a horse and buggy from Mr. Pyle and drove home. Mrs. Sterling held the lantern for me while I put the horse in the stable. horse back to Lebanon, Atter | ao | bd ber gooe ye.

While waiting for the 3 o'clock freight, my brother came after me in the wagon. Mrs. buggy and had gone off very mad. quarrel that morning; but not in regard to money. It was about private affairs, that do not concern the public. I went to the room, and there found that she had locked the bu- reau and the wardrobe. As my things had in Lebanon. always been in there since Mr. A. N. Sterling | inventions, which have had the result of re- left home in September, I got the hatchet and pried open the door, and in one of the drawers inthe wardrobe I found the locket under a paper. It was on the shelf. THE PICTURE IN THE LOCKET she had sent back to a man in St. Louis. I put it in my pocket to show her where she had de- ceived me, as I had found her out in doing so very often of late. In the bureau drawer I found the watch which Bennett speaks of as the one I had stolen. and which she had als teld me she had seut away toa party we had quarreled about very often. I also found my breast-pin in the jewelry-box that she and I had both used for our jewelry. I took that, but left the ear-rings and all the rest of the jewelry inthe box. I went in the big front room and there found that she had locked her trunk, which had had all my su.nmer clothes in it, as well as hers. I took the hatchet and opened it, but my clothes had been taken out. I did not take a thing out of the trunk, but shut the lid down and found my clothes where she had removed them. Bennett states thut I broke a lock to tue door of the house. That is false, for I had a master key that opened every door in the house, whichshe had given me. We had one apiece. [then went to the barn and saddled up my horse to go and see where e was. I feared the horse had 1 nn away with her. When I got to Summerfield the Constable came up and ar- rested me. I knew nothing of the trouble be- fore this time. I gave up several things I bad; among them were the certificates of deposit at Lebanon for #40. I then went back to the house with the officer and Dennett. I wanted to see Mrs. Sterling. She was not there, but drove up soon after. I went to her and put the jewelry in ber hands, and she would not look up. She knew I had found her out in her deceitfulness again. I also gave her the pin and the little chain attached at the sime tl.ne. I was then taken to the hotel and guard d ali night. The mxt norning I went up home and called to her to throw me a PAIR OF PANTS. She wasin her night clothes and told me to come up. I told her at first I would not do it, but she said she did not know which ones I wanted; soshe came down, opened the door and I went up stairs avd changed clothes. I went down intown and took a cup of coffee, Then went up home again. She called me in the room up stairs and the officer staid be- low withmy brother. We had «a long talk. She said she had rather than half the farm that she had not taken the step she bad, aad wanted me to come back home. I told her I would, but that Mr. Bennett must not come on the place again, for I knew it was he bad caused her to do the way she had She then asked me if she did not court what would be the result. the case would be thrown out. down town tothe inal, and Bennett cime He saikt | Sterling had the horse hitched to the | We had a | me in the huggy. drove — town, around to the express office aud got her f and she made me sign come to me. she was amind to give me, and she said: T these certificates for — and — money from the bank. not knew who haa 8 given them u nett and Whittaker came up, and she pas in as her agents.

Friday’s New York Herald, however, pule lishes a three-column description of his two newing inquiry into the matter. The first patent sets forth as Edison’s orig- {ral claims the following: 1.

In the first place, we intend to keep in stock every article worn by MAN and BOY-KIND, and a complete assortment of Boots and Shoes for Ladies, Misses, Children and Babies, in every quality, and sell the same as close as possible. Secondly, we positively have bat one price, and no discounts to any, believing that the money of one person is as good es that of another. Thirdly, misrepresentation is not al- lowed, and should any article prove to be diferent in quality irom what it has been represented, or any dissatisfaction be felt, you can return your purchase and receive your money. We shall ever strive to be“ Famous,“ only asking a discriminating public to lay side all prejudice, and let us at least have an opportunity of convincing you what will be for your interests. Heping you will come and see the best arranged store West of the Alleghenies on Opening Day (Saturday, May 3) or any other day, We are unreservedly yours. “FAMOUS” Shoe and Clothing Co., 705 to 715 Franklin Ave. Ladies’ Hose In all the staple and fancy styles, of superior quality— the whole stock new and cheaper than elsewhere, at the New Store of SCHARFF BROTHERS, 309 N.
