embered, that Jno. w. Pohl, of this

young man on thes street for "trespass-
ing" The young man in Sedalia
protested that he was innocent and

gether for sometime.
MAKE UP.
Subsequently, by the intervention of
friends, the differences of the couple
were healed and they left together to
live in St. Louis. The following
from the Globe-Democrat of yesterday
give the public another chapter in
this domestic drama:
When Officer John w. Pohl left his
little house at 1415 Penrose street
few minutes before IL o'clock on
Wednesday night, it was with happy
heart, bidding his wife and two little
children good night. As he left his
doorway to tramp through the night,
guarding life and property, little did
he dream that anything unusual
would greet his eyes on his return in
the morning. When the morning
dawned yesterday, he went to his
home little earlier than was his Gus
tom, but still expecting to find his
warm breakfast and his always de-
voted wife and his two little children
READY TO WELCOME HIM.
When he reached his door he found it
barred, something which had never
occurred before. A rap on the door
followed, and the voice of a man on
the inside, muttering something in a
low tone, was distinctly heard. The
husband by this time commenced to
think something was wrong on the in
side, and he demanded admittance at
once, but this his wife, who had
sroken but little, refused, it is said.
The angered officer paced up and
down the walk for fully ten minutes,
when, to his astonishment, he saw a
young man endeavoring Ito make a
hasty exit from a rear door. Officer
Pohl, in very gentlemanly manner,
caught hold of the young man and
placed him under arrest, and after ex-
changing only a few words, escorted
him to the street and started to the
station, the officers wife watching
them from the doorway.
AT THE STATION
the young man gave his name as Lee
Overstreet, his age at ~ years, and
his occupation as that of a trader.
When searched he had a loaded re-
volver on his person, and charge of
carrying concealed weapons and tress-
passing was lodged against him by the
grief-stricken husband. The young
man was locked up, but shortly after
ward bailed out. The case will come
up in the police court this morning.
Mrs. Pohl is handsome and at
tractive woman, about twenty-eight
years old, and has two children. She
was married to John w. Pohl at Sc
dalia, Mo-, her home, where she
moved always in the
BEST OF SOCIETY.
The husband, John w. Pohl, was
once a well.to-do man, and for many
years foreman of the brick yards at
tached to the Missouri Penitentiary,
jefferson City being his home, at
which place his parents still reside. |
From Jefferson City he went to
Sedalia, where he engaged in the
of brick. There he was |
not very successful, and came to St. |
Louis few years ago and got on the |
police force.
Lee Overstreet, the young man,
is well known in North st. Louis
society, where he moves among the
best class, his father being a well
known and highly respectable stock |
