TWO DIVORCES.
Allegations OF Cruel Treatment

In the district court Albert B. Clark, IS
years old, was divorced from Emily K.
Clark, aged AZ years, TO whom he was mar
ried Jan. 6, 1874. in ChenangO county, y.
Y. He claims that she has been in the
habit OF asSaulting him, her fayOrite weap-
ons being knife, stick of wood and a stove
hook, or anything that came handy. He
meekly stood all this. although il made him
sick in body and in mind, until June, 1888,
when she threatened TO poison him, where
upon he left. He states that he is without
money or means, that the defendant holds
all the family property. amounting in value
TO several Thousand dollars, in her name,
Sarah J. Chambers has commenced a suit
for divorce against Thomas Chambers upon
the ground of cruel and disrespectful con-
duct. The affidavit OF Therese Smrekar,
domestic, is introduced 10 subtantiate the
allegations OF the plaintiff, to the effect that
in june, 1884, Mr.. Chambers assaulted his
wife, pulling her ears and hair and scratch
ing her. The girl testifieS that the parties
although living in the same house. do not
speak to each other. and that the plaintiff
is never alone but has either her son or
daughter with her constantly. While they
do not speak as they pass by, Mr.. Cham
bers looks at Mrs. Chambers as if he were
going 10 tear her 70 pieces" The balance
OF the girls testimony is taken up in deny
ing that she had ever seen Mr.. Chambers do
his own washing, or that his boots were

The following paragraph, clipped origin
ally from the Pioneer press, is on the round
of the state papers '"The first car of new
wheat has reached Minneapolis. 1t came
from st. Peter, and graded No. 2 hard. 1t
should have been No. regular if the in
spectOrs had remembered it was new and
not old crop wheat" The point of it is
that the Pioneer Press attempted to criti
else the new grain inspectors and itself fell
into blunder even worse than that of the
inspector, as there is no such grade for new
wheat as No. l regular, and further, it
weighed but SO pounds, too light for No. 1

An EiIxs. Social.

For some time movement has been on
foot looking towards the establishment in
this city of lodge of Elks. At one time
arrangements were partially perfected for
Thomas keene, the tragedian, to institute
the lodge during his engagement at the
Grand last season. but owing to the fact
that charter had not been previously pro-
cured, the institutiye had to be forgone.
Again the matter is under discussion with
every probability of its being cOnsummated
this time. As an initiatOry step party of
Eiks, who are mostly in the theatrical pro-
feSSion, and include John Fleming and his
company, the MuldOOn Quartette and Stage
master Wheeler have arranged for holding
social on Sunday evening. The affair
will probably occur in the Knights of
PythiaS hall at tine corner of Washington
avenue and Fourth avenue south, although
the hall has not yet been leased. Invita-
tons will be out to-day, and circulated to-
morrow.

Manager J. Frank Conklin, if he is not
entirely to be credited with the remarkable
success achieved by the Grand, both finan-
cially and theatrically, has been such a
public and important factor III that salts
factory result as to absorb whatever praise
is to be accorded. He has had the direction
Of the Grand since its opening in 1882, and
has carried it through three seasons with
such capable skill and good management
that there is no room for doubt of the
fourth season so happily inaugurated last
evening. Manager Conlilin. as everybody
knows, is a New Yorker, having come from
the Empire state, which has contributed so
largely TO the talent and enterprise of the
Northwest. He has spent five years in
Minneapolis. raising himself surely and
honorably to his present position of trust
which began with the dedication of the
Grand. Under good management and sup
ported by consequent unwavering patron
age. the Grand has established itself as one
OF the solid institutions of the city.
Since its doors were closed in June, the
beautiful theatre has undergone a thorough
renovation. and come out last night in its
most pleasing aspect. An army of decOra-
tors had been at work and the frescoing,
painting and the draperies appeared fresh
and bright and the entire air of the audi
forum pleasing and inviting. The interior
has always ranked second to few in the
land. and never did it look better than
when it came last night in its new fall
suit.

HE SWALLOWED ARSENIC
And May Die, All Because His EViEe
Bought n WringeF.


Bought a Wringer.
An East side shoemaker named Schwartz,
who lives near Main street and Fourth
avenue northeast, swallowed an ounce of
arsenic with a desperate intention TO shake
off the mortal coil. Mrs. Schwartz was
tired of wringing her clothes by hand and
yesterday purchased modern convenience.
Her parsimonious husband thought the eX-
penditure an outrage and the purchase an
extravaganza beyond the bounds of reason.
He did not want his wife provided with any
new-fangled luXuries, and he was so en-
ragged that he saw nothing more in this
mortal life that had any charms for him.
He wanted TO die, and he wanted to die
mighty bad. To carry his purpose to a
the pantry. where he had a whole
ounce of arsenic stored away to be admin
istered to some mSuspecting rodents. and
he said iii German goodbye and swal-
lowed the dose. He was sorry a second
later. The police were notified and an
alarm was sent in calling the patrol wagon
to the East side and the wOuld-be-self-de-
stroyer was carried to the First precinct sta
ton. where DIR. Quinby eXerted himself TO
neutralize the poison. Schwartz was at
tackled by severe retching, occasloned by the
exceedingly large portion swallowed. The
doctor succeeded in restoring the mans
stomach to comparatively normal cOndi-
ton, but the man is not out of danger.
A reaction is feared. His pulse is very
weak and he is in precarious condition.
