MRS. ROY vs. Mr.. ROY,

In December, 1858, Charles A. Roy and Mary
G. Torrcus werc married by Rev. Father
Stoncstrect, s. j., and since then their married
life has been spent either in this city or Baiti-
more. Nd, until three years ago, when she
alone came hack to this place, her former
home, to take up her residence. During the
time she Ind hcen welded she charges that
her husband has neglected his obligations and
fniicd to furnish that support he vowed to give
her, and she has been compelled to rely upon
her individual efforts to secure food and shell
ter.
Within one year after his marriage he sud-
denly disappeared, but after lengthy absence
he as abruptly came hack. This sort Of bust
ncSs was repeated at divers times, notwith-
standing the efforts OF Mrs Roy to induce him
to remain with her. In May, 1874, he disip-
peared for the last time. The Court granted
her divorce, with permission to resume her
maiden name.
MIR. BR0ADUs VS.. MRS. HROADus
In this case the ground of complaint was In.
fidelity on the part of the wife, which being
sustained by evidence decree of divorce was
granted to the husband.

In this case the complainant. Mrs Mary
+. Handy. sSks for dissolution of the nuptal
ties between her aud her husband She was
Maggie +. Mcdaniel up to September /, 1874,
when Rev. Father Bokel, Of st. Dominics
church, united her in the bonds of matrimony
with Theodore n. Handy. Ere the honeymoon
had passed she saw changes in her husband
She discovered that Mr.. Handy was fond of his
teddy, and that he possessed fearful temper
and as they became accustomed to the society
of one another he gave evidences of being a
very inhuman and even brutal man. On the
LIST Of February. 1875, while lying in bed, In
the heat Of passion, he struck her heavy
blow between the eyes, which caused copious
flow Of blood from the nose.
This was followed by other wicked assaults.
Tn the following May, as she was passing the
Agricultural Department grounds he pounded
her numerically, and two months later fclled
her to the sidewalk, near the grounds of the
Smithsonian Institute. Not content with this
exhibition Of his brutality he tore most Of her
clothing from of the body, and left her to get
home rs best she might in her semi-nude state
In the month Of September, 1873, he started
at her with large dirk knife, intending to
carve her into pieces, hut fortunately failed to
carry out the threat. The browning act Of his
basencss was that Of beating her the day that
her child was born.
The Court gave her divorce permission to
rsume her maiden name and granted her the
| custody and control of her child

A runaway team belonging to John
Harlin, started at Whitmer's corner, made
a short turn, ran the wagon over the we'll
post nearest to SINNERS Drug Store, bent
it down by reason of soft earth in which Il
stood, crossed the pike and steered straight
for Stern corner where the near horse ran
on the pavement while the of one was fore
ed out side the banister, the lounge ran
under the banister and but for the bre asi
chaines coming in contact with the banis-

stop occasiond by the post and rail, one or
perhaps both horses would have been eth
er killed or severaly injured. As it was
no damage WAS done. The off horse fell
as II shot but soon rose again. The team
was unhitohed, the wagon backed out, and
then when rehitched the diver took charg
and the horses moved off as if nothing hat
happened. Luckily they did not keel
