CAPITAL NOTES.
MADISON, Jan, 9Th, 1882

Keves. details of which are given
in the Milwaukee RepuJlican, as
follows:
A tremendous sensation was ere
ated in legal and social circles to,
day, the announcement that Hon. T..
w. Reyes had sued for p divorce,
aud that papers had already been
prepared and were in the hands Of
Mrs. Reyes attorney, MrJ. G. Greg
DRY. The papers will be regularly
filed with the Clerk of the Circuit
Court to morrow, and the matter
will be brought into court at an
early period.
The complaints in the suit prom
Uses something unusually sensational.
The summons was made out by Mr..
William +. Villas, alto ney for Mr..
Reyes and is at present in the hands
of that attorney. Mrs. Reyes is al
ready aware of the intentions of her
husband and while at Milwaukee a
few days ago engaged William Pitt
Lynde rs her counsel.
The complaint in the case is be-
ing prepared by the attorney of Mr..
Reyes and will contain number of
serious charges against his spouse.
The most important will be that the
lady is Incorporate, and another will
be incompatibility, Mr.. Reyes, it is
understood, claiming that his wife
has an uncomfortable temper, and
makes life a burden to him.
Mr.. Lyndc has already had con
situations with Mrs. Reyes, and it
is reported that counter complaint
will be entered by her, making still
more serious charges against Mr..
KeySs. Mr.. Lynde has written to
Mr. J. c. Gregory, of Madison, to
assist in the case and to look into
various matters on the other side of
the question.
Mr.. Gregory was interviewed and
in response to the queries PROFOUND
ed said:
"You are right in saying that the
preliminary steps have been taken
for the divorce by Mr. Reyes, but
as yet he has merely entered the
regular summons and is now pre-
pairing his complaint. In that, |
understand, he will bring out the
charge that the lady drinks too
much, that her bad temper makes it
impossible for him to live with her.
What other charges he will bring
out in his complaint | carrot say. |
have visited Mrs. Reyes and she
has consulted with me and has dis
cussed various matters with me re
lating to the divorce. What she
proposes to do will not say under
any circumstances. The summons
gotten up to day was signed by Mr..
w. +. Villas, and so | suppose Mr..
Reyes has engaged him as his at
torney, although he will probably
conduct his own case"
Mrs. Reyes is still very young
woman and is highly respected. She
is related to u number of Milwaukee
families moving in the very best
circles of society, and here at Mad
ison has always borne an excellent
reputation. She is Mr.. Reyes sec
ond wife and has but one child by
him. Mr.. Reyes has three grown
up children by'his first wife, two of
whom are living with him now. He
is at present in the city, and the
matter has thus far been conducted
so quietly that even the local papers
have not been aware of anything.
MRS. KEYEs' SIDE.
A prominent pollticiar of Mil
waukee, who was interviewed on the
subject, stated that it had been
known for number of years, to the
intimate friends of the family, that
Mr. Reyes and his wife were living
rather unhappily together. Mrs.
Reyes, he said, was possessed OF n
violent temper that she was in the
habit of displaying too frequently
for the peace of the family. For
about two years she had not occu-
pied the same room with her hus
band. Mr.. Reyes is reported to
have said to friend recently that
he should apply for divorce from
her on the grounds of her intemper-
ate habits and incompatibllity OF
temperament
WOLF BoU MITES.
Secretary Timme, who is now
fairly settled in his new office, is an.
noyod considerably at the very out
set of his term of Office by the pay
ments he is daily compelled 10 make
for wolf bounties. The accounts
Jan. Sd, show Sl64 credited that day
to wolf, lynx and fox scalpers, and
Jan. It'll, shows $3.50 to their credit.
If this average is kept up for any
