a Brutal Husband.

A sad case of destitution and misery has
recently come to light in this city. Since
last spring disreputable, lazy pimp By
the name of Thos. Doyle hes been laying
around town with no visible means of sup
port, ever complaining that he could get
nothing to do and always fearful lest
some ore should want him to do q days
work and earn an honest dollar. A few
months ago be moved into the yellow
brick near the Halfway House and, fail
ing to get his wife to prostitute herself or
knowingly harbor such characters for his
support, deceived her into it by having
some other pimp bring notorious
character to the house and engage her
board, with the plausible story that she
was his betrothed and they were to be
marriedin afew weeks. The poor woman,
Mrs. Doyle, was easily duped in this way
and consented to the arrangement thinking
that it would help to keep her from star
vatien. Doyle paid no rent and was soon
put out of the house. when he established
himself in the rooms over the temperance
billiard hall, and there compell-
ed his wife to associate with
black and white prostitutes, all the
time telling her that he could get nothing
to do, and providing barely enough to keep
the souls and bodies of the family togeth-
er, which he obtained, no one but him
self knows how.
1t was the same way here in regard to
the rent. and his landlord, Mr.. Conzelman.
lordered him to vacate. This morning
Marshal Fish went up to the house and
found Mrs. Doyle and her children alone,
with their few household effects piled up
| in the middle of the room, ready TO move.
She said Thomas left home yesterday
morning. telling her to get things ready
and he would be back soon with q team to
move them to Rock Island; that he had
not since returned and that she and the
children had nothing in the house to eat,
