A Queer Cage TrIod'In a Neve Yoirta Divorce

more ,eitsy to acquire and more difficult to
shake Off.thanthe opium or cecoaine habit.
pronethe evidence it appears that Mr.
Tompkins, one of the boarders at the Pyo
mansion, drifted into the habit Of kissing
Mrs. Pye; In fact it is very little exag-
gerationi-o-say that he, became it chronic
Pye-biter. They became' so brazen that
their kisses- were suggestive of the ringing'
of ek_p:atent gong. In the Pye family the
kissing tseerne to have been althea as per-
sistent and promiscuous as that to which
the witnesses testified in the Beecher case.
Mr: Dempsey, who boarded at the `Fag
house; Was put on the stand and examined
by it lawyer. ; • ,

Lawyer -Did ' you ever see Tompkins
kiss irs. Pyo? ,
