A Minnesota Husband Runs Away from a
Jealous Wife.

The ST. Paul Pioneer-Press says: Some
days since we gave the facts of the mys
FERROUS disappearance of E. n. Wood, who
wa employed at Smith 81 Parker's sash,
door and blind mandatory. He was sub
sequently reported as having taken the
train for ST. Paul. and there all trace OF
him was lost. Facts that have just come
to light go far toward clearing up the
mystery. Reports dcrOgatory to the char
actor of Mrs. Wood have been in circula-
ton in her neighbOrhoOd, it seems, but
she asserts her entire innOcence-that the
stories were vented by her enemies, and
We're not the cause Of any difficulty be-
tween herself and husband, who knew
them to be false. She was jealous OF her
husband. however. and goaded him until
he couldn't or wouldn't endure it n
longer. On the day of his departure he
addressed the following

AS much as it has panied me, | must

nearly crazy. There is $50 due me at

have you send my tools home. Let them
pay the freight. | may want to use tools
some time again, but now | feel like dying
in the street like a dog. You have lost a
good home by your fO~Olislness. | have
warned you time and again not to abuse
me so. [ think you had better sell the
house and lot and all the things but a few
that you may want to keep. You havemy
consent to sell the place, and than.go home
to your folks. The Lord only knows

Your husband, E. \. WOOD.
That's why he Wood not live always and
cared not to stay with the wife who was
jealous Of him day after day.
Mrs. Wood now wishes he would come
back again. If he would, she would exert
herself TO make the Wood home one of the
brightest and happiect spots on earth, and
she wouldn't have tOrmented the life out
of him had she for a moment suspected
that he would shoulder his ear and walk
off on it. She thinks he has gone to Cali
fornia, and she will arise and 60 to her
fathers house in sack cloth and ashes,
prepared to eXterminate the green-eyed
lobster whenever her husband will return
to her.

tending for principle, and for the election
Of tho best men. It exposes the corrup.
tion that disgraces the country and
Threatens tho overthrow Of republican
institutions. 1t has no fear Of knaves
and seeks no iavors from their support

that we have perfected arrangements fol
the continuation of its publication npOn
u firm basis. The public are we'll aware
of the difficulties under which the Con-
servative press OF Louisiana labor; the
Infamous printing law passed by parti-
san Legislature, solely to fostec and up
hold, at the expense of tho Taxpayers,
journals entirely antagonistical to their
interest, and at war upon their liberties,
and by forcing, under the forms Of law,
our citizens to advertise in these official
papers, to break down their power, the
Conservative and Democratic press; con-
sequently we are compelled to depend
for support upon the generous contribu-
ton ia. people already poverty-stricken,
but we feel assured that they will not
fail to sustain their main power in the
war of virtue against vice.
The Fearless White Mans Press Of
Louisiana.
The future tone of this paper can be
in1gcd from its past. We will continue
to advocate to Success, the rights of the
TAXED, that honesty and carability,
ALONE, shall constitute grounds for po.
litical prefsrment, and continued and
never ceasing war upon Kellogg and l,is
corrupt officials-knowing them to he in
common with their Chief, both usurpert
and thieves.
We can assure the public that we will

them to be antagonistic to public good
