A RUNAwAY HUSBAND FoUND.-John Edge.
worth WAS married last April to a looming as.e
OF Philadelphia where he took up his residence
for while und lived happily, it is supposed,
with his wife. She had, as the Philadelphia
say, u good bit of money and everything went
right so long as that lasted. But recently
little baby came along TO be supported, which so
added to the expenses of John and the wife that
the treasury was soon found to he entirely empty.
1t is said that when poverty comes in the door,
love flies out of the window; and 10 this case the
ndage proved true For the baby is but four
weeks old and We find John accusing his wife of
infdelity, ugliness, aud other things, and run
ming away from her. already. When Mrs. Edge
worth found her husband had forsaken her, aud
not being able to find him anywhere in the city
of brotherly love, she gathered up what things
| she could sell to procure a little money, and
started for this place, where she had heard he
had sister, and where she supposed he might
be- She arrived here and wandered through
the streets in search of her husband. few
nights ago she fortunately met him in the street,
but he would not notice her. She followed him
to his sisters, at the corner of Wythe avenue and
Rush street, where she went ia and claimed his
support. lie would have nothing to do with her,
denied her being his wife, and told his sister
that ii was an abandoned female who followed
him all over. With this she pulled out the
marriage certificate, and triumphanlly proved to
Oh that she was his legal spouse. Notwithstand-
ing this, and with baby but four weeks old in
her arms, she was turned out into the street to
seek a shelter from the piercing cold as best she
could. Meeting officer Sitterly, her troubles
were made known to him and he took charge of
her us before stated The husband alleges that
he had no work and could not live with her even
if he had-she was 20 disagreeable; but he was
willing to pay for her support. lie could not
procure security, however, for the faithful per-
torrance of his agreement, and after a half
hours consideration Of the matter he concluded
to take his wife and babe by back to Phiaiel-
phia, and treat her decently.-BFooklyH Times
