A MAN AND WIFE.
The Barton Family TroubIes-A Suit
 for AIImOny.

for AIImony.
 A motion for alimony and eouse1 fee was made yesterday to Judge Donohue in the Supreme Court Chambers, New York city, on behalf of the plaintiff in an action brought by Mrs. Susan Barton against her husband, Horace w. Barton, for separation upon the charge of abandonment. The parties were married in 1871, and have one child, Percy w. Barton, who is now about twelve years of age. MT. Barton is the clerk of Woodlawn cemetery, and his wife says receives salary Of $150 per month. According to the story of Mrs. Barton, her husband abandoned her on the 18th of last July. They had been living in New York until last November, when her husband moved to Greenwich, Conn, as she ayers, for the pur- pose of securing residence there, in order that he might procure divorce from her there and thus get rid of her. He refused to live with her or contribute toward her sup port. She ayers that he gave her no reason for this, and that she is now ready to live with him. Her money is all gone, she de- clares, and for that reason she has applied to the court to compel her husband to pay her weekly amount of alimoAy.
 On behalf of the husband it was stated that this was the sixth proceeding brought in the Barton controversy. Some time since motion was made on behalf of the wife for alimony. Upon that motion the husband alleged that he lived in Greenwich, Conn, and that his wife had abandoned him. That application was denied. MT. Barton says that another man has alienated the affections of his wife. This is the reason he has re fused to take her back. Mrs. Barton says that this is not true. Judge Donohue took the papers upon both motions and reserved his decision.

Drew the Color Lime.

Race distinction was practiced on Thurs day by some of the saloon and restaurant keepers when the co1ored Odd Fellows sought to obtain refreshments. After the march two members of the Boston lodge went into a large Main street cafe to get coffee and lunch con. They were not waited upon, and they claim to have been uncivilly treated. Ac- cording to their story they were invited to take seats when they entered the place, but the white walters refused to take their orders and the proprietor looked upon the matter with indifference. After waiting twenty minutes they were told that colored people couldn't get anything there. One or two similar cases were reported. This drawing of the color line is to be regretted, for the visitors were honored guests of the city and their behavior was perfect. Hartford Cour- anf

A TERRIBLE DEATH.

A Young Boy Falls Down Four
 Flights of Stairs.
 Mrs. Schewerer, widow lady residing in Fosters block on Asylum street, Hartford, sent her ten-year-old son on Thursday even ing to an upper story to deliver a message. The boy went to the floor above, and with boyish instinct thought to accelerate his Ascent by sliding down the bannister. He lost his grip and was precipitated to the floor some forty feet below. His cries attracted the occupants of the building, who found the boy on the floor crying from the pain suffered. He was removed to his mothers apartments and physician summoned.
 An investigation showed that the boy had suffered serio1s injury. His arm was broken and his skull crushed. Remedies for the al deviation of pain were administered, but from the nature of the injuries it was ap- parent that he could not long survive. He suffered intense pain until about Il o'clock when death relieved him.
 The only members of the family were his widowed mother and an older brother who is employed at Goerz Bros in Hartford

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.


 0. w. Bradley, Jr.'s, Application For
 License.
 Yesterday forenoon the county commis- sioners heard the remonstrants against the issuing of a license to Charles w. Bradley, jr., to open a saloon at 153 Crown street. The application for the license was dated the 23d of August, signed by George Petrie, F. L. Storey, John Feltung, Henry P. Palmer and William l.. Smedley.
 Hugh Daley appeared for the remonstrants and Colonel Dexter R. Wright for the appi- can't Colonel Wright said that the objection being of general nature there should be furnished orally
 MT. Daley said it would be claimed, first: That the late proprietor of the Florence House was the father of the applicant, who from boyhood had been a joint manager with his father, and that the character of the place had been such as to render license to the son improper. Sec ond: That there was a police record against the applicant. Third: That when person had begged that a certain woman should not be allowed to visit the Florence House, the applicant replied that whenever she wanted a room she could have one. Fourth: That a license to the son would in effect be a i- cense to Charles W. Bradley, the elder, whose license had been taken away.
 Colonel Wright replied that if the appl- cant had made such a reply about entertain ing the woman at the Florence House he did it simply an agent; also that the elder Bradley was out of health and out of busi- ness and that the remonstrance simply amounted to the charge that the applicant was the son of his father; not valid objec- tion It was absurd that the old Florence House was to be reinstated under the name of the elder Bradley's son.
 John c. Collins, William D. Mossman and others appeared in opposition. The county commissioners having another engagement the hearing was adjourned to Wednesday, the i 17th at 10 o'clock

 It is not generally known that by an act of the last Legislature gray squirrels have been put in the list of legal game and are unlaw- fully destroyed between the first of January ,nd first of October. The proper observance of this law would save many simple little undergrown squirrels until October, when they are wiser and fatter and better able to take care of themselves. The whole law for the protection of game is as follows:
 Ut shall be unlawful for any person to hurt or pursue, kill de1troy, atte mpt to kill any wood cocR, grouse Commonly called partridge), between the first day of January and the first day of Octo ber and every person offending shall for each of fence (the killing destroying or having in posses sion of each bird shall be deemed separate ofence) be fined not more than twenty-five dollars, provided that person shall be imprisoned exceeding twen- tyive days for failure to pay any fine imposed un der the provisions of this secton.''
