SERIOUS Cutting AFsRAY on BROWNS
Isr.ANp.--Ic>terday morning there was a
cutting allray on Browns island which re-
suited in the serious wounding of Thomas
Powers by his wife, who was Under the IN
tluence of liquor at the time. In such q state
she is said TO be u perfect virago. One Of
our reporters visited the wounded man yes
tcrlay and obtained the following facts .
Early on that morning Powers, who is a
workman at the Tredegar foundry, was pre-
pairing to go to his work as usual, when he
requested lis wife 10 hurry breakfast. At
this most natural desire she became very
much cnraged, and without any provocation
whatever picked up a large knife near by
and struck him over the head, cutting deep
s;lsh and intlcing most painfuan serious
wound. The wounded man hled pro(usely,
and but for the timely arrival Of DR.. Chris
tcphcr TompkinS wonld have inevitably bled
to death. The woman was arrested and
taken 10 the station-holise. She will have q
hearing this morning before Justice White.
