MARITAL INFELICITIEs.
A Divorce Suit Filed and a Petition
Granted.


Rev. Father White, while pastor Of st.
Matthew'S Church, performed the marriage
ceremony uniting James Fitzpatrick with
Emily NJ. Demmett in October, 1870. Eight
children have been the fruit: Of the union,
five Of them now living. There was little
knowledge Of any domestic unhappiness In
the family until last Saturday, when the
wife filed an application for divorce, asking
for the custody and control Of the children
and sufficient alimony for their suitable
support. She complains that for several
years past Mr. Fitzpatrick has contributed
very little to the support of herself and
children, averaging only about so cents
day, and about week ago deserted them,
taking up his residence in another part OF
the city, and declaring his intention not to
return TO them. He made threats against
the wife Of such serious nature
that she found II necessary to have
him put under bonds in the police court to
keep the peace toward her. He has con-
tributed nothing during the past week to
their support; asserts that he will not, and
went so far as to notify the stores In the
neighborhood Of his house not to trust his
wife or children on his account. Mrs Fitz-
patrick says that her husband is q bricklayer
by trade, also engaged in the stone busi-
ness, and ahundantly able to provide for
his family, while she has no means. One Of
the most serious charges made is that on
the I'd of March last he struck her with a
knife and kicked her violently In the side,
injuring her to such an extent that she has
not yet recovered.
Justice Cox relieved one couple, Henry
Casey and Ella Casey, of the yoke which
held them in q miserable married state, and
gives both the freedom craved. Mr.. Casey
has been residing in this District for more
than eighteen years past. In November,
1868, at Dansville, Livingston county,
n. Y, he married Ella Trembly,
and brought her back with him.
They lived together until Dec. 8, 1888,
when Mrs. Casey quietly packed. up. all Of
her individual property, quit her husbands
roof, returned to New York state, and
declined to live with him afterward. Since
the deseition she has visited friends in this
city, but in response to allinquiries declared
she would not return and live with Mr..
Casey under any circumstances. Finding
that the desertion was absolute the husband,
through his attorney, applied for and OBJ
tanned the divorce.

The Fitzgerald Contempt Case.

Justice Cox made a partial decision last sat.
urday. Three grounds of complaint were
behavior while testiiying intimidating and
threatening witness after delivering testimony
and before signing his deposition. His honor
held that the examiner was an officer of the
court, and au attempt to prevent a witness
entering tho examiners office to testify, or
illuminating him, was contempt of court. Asto
the other cases, in relation to what transpired on
the street, he was not so clear but thought
they were easily reached by the criminal arm
OF the law. Before deciding the question he
wished to hear the testimony of the witness,
hut sufficient had been shown to require the

\ Bad Mule.

Ii is not often that Judge Vertrees is
caught mapping in horse trade. but
somebody recently put up a Job whereby
the Judge came into possession OF a
meek looking little white mule, which
the Judge now claims to be the best
kicker in Florida. The mule is as meek
looking and as innocent as lamb, till YOU
reach the heels, which seem to be hung
very lightly. A few days since a dar-
key, who had some hauling to do, went
to the Judge to secure a mule for few
days. The Judge was only too glad to
accommodate him, but told him about
the kicking qualities of the mule. and
informed the darksy that if he would
take the animal and make it work that
he would charge him nothing for its
use. The proposition just suited the ne
gro, and procuring a rope he led the in
offensive looking mule out to his place.
The fun commenced when the negro at
tempted to hitch the mule to a cart.
The mule took good aim and put in a
regular knock down lick on the negro's
shoulder which gave him a lame arm,
The second eff ort to hitch the mule
proved more disastrous, for this time it
got in its work on the negro's leg, tear
ing off the skin from the ankle to the
knee on one of his legs. The neero's ire
was up by this time, and seeing that he
was unable to cope with the mule alone,
he called in help, and by the united ef-
forts OF several strong men, who sue
ceeded in lodging the mules heels, il
was finally pushed into bog, knee
deep, where the mud was so heavy that
the mule could not kick, when the cart
was pushed up in it and the traces fas-
tened. The next day the negro iimped
down to the stable, with one arm in a
sling and leading the mule, which he
delivered to the Judge. saying:
Judge, / have got enrf of dis liver
mule. Its de wust one what ever did
see.'
That mule is on sale, and would bring
a good price, il Barnum or Fovepaugh
should learn of his whereabouts.
