The LONGEST TRIP ON RECORD AFTER A
RUNAWAY WIrE.-That wives will forget
their marriage vows and runaway, is every
day exempltied, bu. husbands don't always
follow ocor land and sea in search Of vagrant
crinoline-A case which came up in JUS
tices court yesterday, however, sets an ex-
ample :or loving husbands that has no paral-
lei on record, and but for the criminal reality
conaec,ed with it, would throw The latest ro-
nance into obscurity.
/: appears thai he elder brother of iami-
y residing n Naples, Italy, married wife
con iderab'y his junior, and she became the
ID mans darling" Ike Meao.;e, he'd
''la7o 40 friends that were not lovets," and
w;th o,.de ne pointed to his pretty wife,
anu made her his idol--his temple Of deyo-
ion. morning and evening. In an evil hour,
a Jounger brother, Michael Angelo Gitto.
looked with loving eyes upon his sistef-iu-
law, and she was won from her allegiance
to her lord. The guilty pair made their es-
cape to this coIntsy, bringing with them
little daughter, leaving the husband and two
little children in their deserted Italian home.
The brother lover and his fair companion
came to This city some months ago, and
opened confectionery store on Main Street.
In time the husband learned their wherea-
bouts, and taking his two motherless boys
with him, he sailed for New York, and ar
tived in Cincinnati, day or two ago. He at
once sought out the guilty pair, and implor-
ed the wife to return 70 her allegiance, but
to no purpose. He was rudely spurned by
both wife and brother and as last resort,
he had them arrested for adultry Oh Thurs
day.
The case was to come up before the jus
tice yesterday, but mutual friends interfered.
Unlike the "Misanthrope," who feared the
jeers c. BOYS and girls, should they see him
with his pretty runaway wife upon his arm,
the elder Gitto with tears coursing down his
cheeis, besought her, on his knees, to return
with him to the sunny cline Of Italy, and
make his home once more heaven Of do
| rneslic happiness. The scene was affecting
the picture being rendered complete by the
pleading looks and tears Of he little boys
who had accompanied their fathe: in bis
long and tedious journey. There was choice
between the penalty of adultery and hus.
bands arms 'lhe wife hisitated; the husband
pleaded; friends counseled obedience, and al
combined. at length prevailed. She consen
ted to return to l,aly with her husbon1. The
guilty brother agreed to pay the costs ant
lawyers fses-the husband took his runaway
wife upon his arm, and his children by tht
hand, aud left the court room, so ovsrjoye(
with his recovered treasure that he actually
kissed the hands of friend who had beet

out by quotation from Walter Savage Ian
dor:
"Said Stiggings to bis wife one day,
We've nothing left to eat;
If things 60 on in this queer way,
We shan't make both ends meet;
The dame replied in words discreet,
We'er not so.badly fed,
If we can make ono end meat,
And make the other bredd.'
