Shortly after midnight last night o black
haired, black eyed woman, with q face far
from %unattractive, suddenly burst IN the
door at Turner Hall, and brushing past the
astonishod doorkeeper made her way
through the dancers and crowd that was
standing about, and running down stairs
entered the bar room. Her appearance
caused quite o commontion, as well 1t
might She was neatly and richly
attired in q black satin dress and Gaines.
borough hat. In a seconds time she had
reached the side OF George Cots, who was
standing at the bar, and said in o voice
that trembled with excitement: Come
home"
Il was Cots wife.
To say that Cots was astonished Is put
ting 1t mildly. He had been drinking
considerably, and was not inclined
to 60 home. He spoke severely
to the woman for coming into the
place, and informed her that she
was making O ''holy show" OF herself. She
replied that II 1t was a fit place for him it
was for her, and that she proposed to stay
until he went home. He replied that he
would not 60 home, and emphasized the
statement with some ''cuRs words" and o
call for q drink, which the barkeepers re-
fused 10 furnish.
Then Cots got mad and swore roundly
at every one. Some OF his friends whis.
peredto him, and the woman characterized
them as suckers. They started to reply,
and this brought out the remark from
Cots that any man that spoke to his wife
WAS R----"
Finally he asked his wife up stairs to
dance, and in q twinkling the bar.room
was empiied as the crowd followed up the
two. The music was not playing, 30 they
stood and talked. Mrs. Cots was disguised,
and asked George what pleasure was to be
had Sin such company" For answer, George
darted from her side, outdoors, She started
to follow, then with q determined look on
her face went and Sat down. Shortly
George returned and said: "Come home"
They went out, she looking triumphant,
he sullen and mad. They went down
street and the reporters followed. They
live on the second floor OF the three story
building corner OF Market and Tenth
streets. Arriving there, Cots said:
snow, you go up stairs" She de-
clined to do this4until he led the way. Then
commenced a TRADE Of abuse on his side
and a flow OF tears from her. She declared
that she had stood about as much frem
him as a mortal could, and that there must
be an end before long. He swore, sneered,
and laughed. She cried and implored.
Then calming herself, she declared she
would not leave him. II he went to the
ball again she would 60.
On the same floor lives q man named
Kleinhaus. The best OF feeling does r Vt
exist between the Cottss snd Kleinhau . +.
While the picnic was in progress between
Colts and his wife, Cots spoke OF Klein
haus as -----. His wife taunt-
ipgly, said that he would not dare say that
to Kleinhaus himself.
~ would. II ne were here I'd say that
he wa a---" Bang-out the
door flew Kleinhaus, and with a sledge
hammer blow, sent Gotta reeling into the
street. In a second Kleinhaus was on top OF
him, and pounding Cots head like a trip
hammer. A reporter blew his whistle,
Mrs. Kleinhaus ran to the rescue, hauled
him in, Cots, with blood flowing, walked
down street, crying back to his wife, "You

Thus ended one Of Weddings night
Bcents.
