The Northern Pacific farmer. [volume] (Wadena, Minn.) 1878-1885, 1880-11-11

owing to the darkness, but it now seems
plain enough that she was deliberately
fastening the child to herself.
Mrs. Wasserman was the wife Of
Wilhelm Wasserman, proprietor Of
beer saloon at No. 1850 State street, and
she left two children other than the one
she drowned with herself. Seven years
ago, when Wasserman married, Fannie
Schmaus was accounted very hand
some and well-behaved yo ang woman,
and he was considered a happy man :.
Domestic broils transformed the happy
couple, and for four years their home
has been like one of the circles in the
Inferno. Mrs. Wasserman disappeared
from home about o'clock on Tuesday,
and after purchasing some goods about
town, which she sent home to her chill
dren, made a visit to the house of her
mother, on West Nineteenth street,
near Blue Island avenue. She remain
ed there until o'clock in the evening,
and then said she was going back home
Though she frequently made sorroWtul
the hearts of her parents and relatives
with stories of her husbands maltreat-
ment of her, she had but little to say
that night, and appeared i'll. The last
quarrel between herself and husband
was somewhat ridiculous. There were
two kegs of beer on tap. one fresh and
the other stale Mrs. Wasserman in
waiting upon customer in the saloon
drew from the fresh key, and her hus
band took her to task because she did
not draw from the stale key, putting in
just enough of the fresh beer to emil
ven the whole. Wasserman states that
his wife was evidently insane, and that
it was all brought on by jealousy. She
was too good to the children and spoiled
them, and was of a very intractable dis
position. AS usual in such cases the
husband is said to be the one in full
possession of the green-eyed monster.
Mrs. Flicker, living a. 1917 Wentworth
avenue, is a sister of the deceased, and
in conversation with reporter last
night, she intimated that Wasserman
was entirely to blame. She refused to
say anything for publication. however:
fearing that Wasserman would take
umbrage and prevent her from seeing
the two remaining children, and SEEM
ed to think that her being permitted to
see the children at intervals would in
sure for them better treatment at the
hands Of the father Mrs. Flicker in
sisted that her sister was in her right
mind at the time, and that she chose
death for herself and her youngest child
simply to rid herself of a burdensome
and disgusting life. AS to the husband,
she intimated that whole columns
might be written about him, but at the
present time she could not reveal any
thing. There is undoubtedly some
