A BAD BARBER.
A Third Street Barber Skips
Out and Leaves His
Wife Penniless.
A Bad Case OF Being Stuck On
Another Woman.

About the first Of last February there
arrived in this city, from Clinton, a barber
by the name of Andrew Cash. He found
employment at the Bee Hive, and proved
a good workman
Cash left his wife and child, boy some
ten years of age, at Clinton, promising TO
send back for them. This, however, he did
not do, and Mrs. Cash removed 10 Lewis
station, after vainly waiting on her hus-
band to do as he agreed, and as he ought
To- have done.
From the Bee Hive Cash went ont 10 the
shop on Third street, i'm East Sedalia, then
run by Happy Jack, and went To work. BY
marriage Cash is a relative of Jack, though
the two did not get along i'm the most
pleasant way, owing TO the manner IN
which the former treated his family. and
also that he was spending his money on
CERTAIN NOTORIOUS PROSTITUTE
who had captured his affections as well IS
his cash. Previous To coming to Sedalia,
Cash treated his wife and child in kind
manner. amply providing for their wants
and acting as he should.
But he soon fell into grievous ways after
getting to this city and he went to the bad
i'm a hurry. He got under the influence OF
the notorious Mrs. Greenstreet, AMI the
pair cohabited as husband and wife,
though il was known to be criminal re-
lationship.
THE WIFE CAME on
here about two months ago, out IN a most
pitiabie condition She was bare-footed
and had to accept pair of shoes from a
courtesan. Her villain of a husband had
been visited by an official from Lewis sta
ton and threatened with prosecution il he
did not better care for his family; this
brought the bastard to determine io send
for them, he not fearing the presence of
his wife as preventive to his illicit
amOurS.
house at the extreme eastern end OF
Fourth street was procured and into il the
CASKS removed, though he himself spent
most of his time with his paramount, Mrs.
Greenstreet, leaving his family to shift
for themselves.
HE sKIPs OFT.
This morning Bazoo reporter learned
that Cash had left the city, leaving his
wife i'm destitute circumstances, while he is
revealing i'm the embraces ami emOluments
of the woman who had taken him away
from his wife soon after he came here.
The reporter paid visit To Mrs. Cash,
whom he found at Happy Jacks house on
East Fourth street, and from her learned
that her husband had left last Sunday after
noon, going. as he told her, To his brothers,
i'm the north ern part of the state
But this was only ruse, for Mrs. Cash
had found 4 letter i'm his coat pocket Sat-
urday night, from Kansas City,
SIGNED CARRIE CASH"
in which the writer says she will meet him
in that city on the night mentioned
Did he leave YOU any money!
But very little; none worth mention
ing"
Officer Meyers, who accompanied the
reporter, assed To see the letter, but Mrs.
Cash said she had burnedit up. This was,
evidently, an excuse for not showing it.
The officer urged her TO have Cash ar
rested, but she seemed very Indifferent
about the conduct of her worthless hus-
band. saying she guessed ii he wanted to
go he'd do SD, anyhow, and there wasn't
much use Of doing anything about it.
Cash is as worthless a cuss as ever
pressed sidewalks in Sedalia and ought to
be caugh, and put in the pen for his course
while i'm this city. He is miserable
whelp, fit only to wear conSici's suit.
