Ii‘ defeated the Westchoster County
Wheeimcn. of Mt. Vernon. by a score
of id to 0. while ths'Montaukii won
from the East Norwalk Athletic Club
by a score of 20 to 2. About five bun
tired spectators were present. and the
players on both sides were warmly ap-
plauded whenever a good play was
made. Of course the home teams were
the favorites. When a goal was Is-
cured there was perfect bodlam for a
few moments with cheers and the toot»
ing of horns. '
The same of the evening was be
tween the Westchester County Wheel
men and Team F. The teams were
pretty evenly matched as to weight
and in interference were strictly up to
date. The wheeimeu were not on to
the clever team work of the home
team, and the blind passes with the
ball proved puuiing to them. The r
team players were apparently all over
the floor stance. and made it decidedly
hard work for the visitors to keep
their men covered. as well as to Watch
the ball.
The showing made by the F boyr

fine form. if the same line of playinr

games is kept up. basket-bail W“!

in the first half Milne was at the
center. with Gilmore relieving Godfrey
at left guard. The game commenced
with snap and vigor. and before the
bull had been a minute ill play Milne
had popped it into the basket. Shortly
afterwards Bourne dribbled the bail
and thus secured a basket. bill tilr
count was ruled out. and a foul marked
against the visitors. Two fouls b3

lipplngton went out with a lame foot
and later Simpson got. a crack in th«'
eye. but pluckily re~entered the scrim

did when the half opened was to throu-

the visitors. Frank fouled, and Ghiottr

Montauko vs. East Nocwaik A. c..
The Montauks. or the former F Jul:
iors. who last year were defeated so
many times by the East Norwalk Ath
lcilc (‘lub team. have much improved
this season. and [hat evening gave
their old opponents a sound drubbing.
The game, while not especially excit-
lug. gave the Montauks opportunity to
show the wonderful improvement. made
this season both in their team work
and general play. The Athletic. mull
team. while considerably heavier. were
more clumsy than their lithe oppo
uents. though it can be said in behalf
of the East Norwnlk boys that they
have not had the advantage of practice
that the Montauks have had.
The Moniauks had no trouble in scor-
ing over their opponents. and at the
end of the first half the score stood if
to 0. The last half was a repetition of
the first. itb the exception that a
fumble by t e Montauks gave the East
Norwalk team the only chance of the
evening to save themselves a goose
egg. and they improved the opportun-
‘ity. All of the Moutuuks found the bus-
kot readily. and the complete score at
the end of the last half was 20 to 2.
A peculiar feature of the game was
that neither side scored a point on a
(flail. though many were called on both
si us.

J'he Reopen. . onlthy Hat Man-

a Settle _ , ; Save Dauph-
ter F Shame
One of the mall'liuovei cases of liti-
gation that has oofi'upied the attention
of the judiciary and the legal frateln
city. of this Smyrna the case of
Matilda 8. Dexter. ainst Byron Dex-
ter. the latter a wealthy hat manufac-
turer of Danbury. which was settled
out of court. Tuesday, as stated in
these columns.
The case iii hi ‘ far to many who
have followed the ari’ous steps in the
litigation. most 0 which have been
fought out in the only court house
here. and which are been bitterly
contested for the at three yours.
Attorney Curt Thompson. 0f
Bridgeport, was counsel in the action
for Mr. Dexter. Mrs. Dexter sued her
husband for an annulment of their
marriage, which. took place September
36, 1875. and, furthermore. asked for
“30.000 alimony. Mr. Dexter‘s wealth
is variously approximated at between
$100,000 and $200,000. in considera-
tion of the affectioiiaentertalned by M r.
Dexter for his only child: a daughter
at the couple. he made s satisfactory
lettlemcnt, otherwise the case would
have gone to the court of last resort.
ind Mr. Dexter, it is believed. would
have been spared the granting of any
alimony from the fact that when he
married his wife, she had a husband
living. from whom she had not secured
a divorce. As tiic situation exists.
both parties to the action accepted ii
decree of nullity of the marriage. Mr.
Dexter is forty-mo years of age. and
broken down in health. which was one
‘enson for drawing the litigation to a
dose. alid another was the affection
be entertained for his daughter, and
‘hc fact that he wanted no stigma to
'01le her. His wife is fifty-one years
of age.
Mrs. Dexter, whose second marriage
was annulled. it appears. married one
llirnm D. Perry. March 26. 1866. The
‘ouple resided in Dnnbury. They rc»
iidcd together for some years. when a
motivation resulted. August 12. 187:3.
\‘lr. Perry brought suit for a divorce
claiming that his wife deserted hiin ill
i872. The action was listed on the
docket iil Dridgcport. and in a short
time came to trial. When the hearing
opcncd. both sides to thc action. Mrs
i‘erry making a contest for allowance
were representcd ill court by counsel.
During the progress of the divorce
proceedings. and the petition for air
iowullce. it was discovered that Mrs.
perry and Byron Dexter. tho Wealthy
manufacturer of Dnlibiii‘y. had been
married. Then Mr. Perry dcclarcd lic
would not. pay the allowance ilskcil
for by his wife. iiud the case was
withdrawn. This left Mrs. Perry in
a peculiar poaition, which was further
complicated from the fact that al-
though she had not resided with her
husband in three years. and had in
the interim married Dexter. she was in
ii delicate condition. She had two blis-
bands. therefore. at the one time.
However. silo dropped the claim for
an allowance. and ller lawyers had the
divorce proceedings reinstated on the
docket as speedily as possible. and at
the next hearing the petition of Mr.
Perry. for divorce. was granted.
Mrs. Dexter lived with her second
husband until 1808. when Mr. Dexter
discovered. through Clerk William T.
Hiivlland. of the Common Pleas Court
that when he (Dexter), married Mrs
Perry. she had not been divorced from
Perry. The couple had worried along
under the same roof. bill with little
marital happiness. for some time prev~
ions. and Mr. Dexter determined to
bring an action to annul the marriage
Mrs. Dexter at the same time filed a
cross bill for annulment and alimony
r'lalining that she had aided Mr. Dexter
in the accumulation of the fortune of
‘200000. which he possessed. at the
Ilimo of the bringing of the proceed
ligs.
Attorney Thompson. who represent-
ed Mr. Dexter is tlioiltigatlon. claim-
ed that inasmuch as the couple were
not legally married. Mrs. Dexter or
Perry could not lawfully claim all-
many. which is only allowed where the
marriage of a couple is beyond the
shadow of doubt. and with no cloud
restlnc on it. and on this ground the
case would have been taken to tho

rick's share of the estate by this will is less than $250,000. Mr. Har-

ground for both sides iii this case. The people that are fighting
Patrick arc the trustees of Rice Institute of Texas. The only weak
point in Patrick's case is that Jones. the valet, went to Swan. and
tried to makcadeal with him. Patrick is all right. Efforts to illi-
pcacli his record as a lawyer have been futile.
Mr. Harby went on to say that from the very outset the per-
