A HUSBAND BADLY BEATEN BY HIS wIFz's

dav. q row occurred in a frame sh snty in Kileys
alley, IL street, between ~ and 9th streets

der suspicious circumstances, which so enragcd
him that he went for his musket, which stood in
corner; and, anticipating what he was after
Shorts caught up a brickbat and dashed il at
HIM, striking him on the side of the head knock
ing him down senseless. and after beating him
10 ms hearts content, ran away. Scott bled
nearly TO death before the flow of blood could be
stopped. He appeared at the Police Court this
morning and sued ont warrant against Shorts
which was placed in the hands of an officer
Scott appears TO be an honest. hard working
man, and SAYS that Shorts has been in the habit
OF giving his tScott's) wife drugs, and then
coming to the house during bis (Scott's) absence
nom home. Officers Brelsford and Berry were
soon on the ground, and took Scott and his wife
mo custody until the affair can be investigated.
