Not Entitled to n Divorce.

In the case of Kate Carpenter, applying for
divorce from John r. Carpenter, Justice Mac
Arthur has made decree dismissing the bill.
In doing so he says
All the grounds for a divorce set up in this pcl.
ton occurred ont of tn. District Of Columbia, and
by section 40 Revised Statutes District OF Column
ba the petitioner Is required to have resided with
In the District for two years before She Is entitled to
make an application for n divorce upon the grounds
Aforesaid. The petitioner, after the marriage In
1867 removed with her husband to Texas and af'
tcrward to New York, where all the acts of which
she complains took place, except an alleged crimi.
nal ofenSc I'm New Jersey. II seems that the hus.
band has not been within the District since the
marriage She lost her residence here, and there Is
no evidence except her own statcment-but she IS
not competent witness on that subject Ann IL.
Hobbs Is the only witness, beside the plaintiff, aud
she states that the plaintiff cfl her house bride
in 1867 and came back TO her house penuiless in
september, lS77-n period not exceeding ten months
next preceding the commencement OF this suit.
This being the only competent testimony in regard
TO plaintiffs residence In this District, divorce
eau be granted In this case and the bill is dis
missed. IN addition TO this may remark that the
court never acquired Jurisdiction of the defendant
for the reason that there does not appear to have
been an affidavit of his own residence In the Dis
trct before publication of the tendency of the suit
as Is required by section 7jb, Revised Statutes o.
District Of Columbia. This alone would be SUN
| cient to deny any relief under the statute

Not Guilty.

Adam Austin, the coored man who was ar
rested last Tuesday night in Georgetown on
suspicion of being the perpetrator OF an out
rage on lady named Thomas, at Licksville,
Nd, last Tuesday morning, was locked up at
Police Headquarters all day yesterday. The
prisoner stoutly denied that he was tho guilty
party, and persisted in saying that his name
was Austin, instead of James Carroll, the name
furnished the police by the Maryland authori.
ties. Information of the arrest of Austin was
tclegraphcd to Licksville yesterday, and gen.
tleman came down from there last evening tC
take u look at the prisoner. He failed to iden
tify him, however, and Austin was accordingly
set free
