Yesterday. Daniel Moore, a farmer of an age
several years moro than fifty, applied to Judf 9
Taylor for divorce The suit was fled in the

lump of sugar from the table. She
never hesitated to drive him out Of
the house if she thought her comfort
could be increased in that way The old man
also said he has suffered greatly by her pulling
his whiskers out at the roots. The Judge after
hearing the testimony, some of which came from
the wife or was in her interest although she had
filed an answer of general denial to the charges.
speedily told the old gentleman to take his de-
cree.
The Moores are in comfortable circumstances,
with the respect and good will of their neigh
bors near Acton. The wife's bad temper is the
cause OF the separation. Her sister, Mrs. Alice
White, was twice divorced and the mother of
the two left their father. Mrs Moore gets from
her husband in the settlement of the case 800 in
cash, farm of forty acres, cows and household
goods. They have grandchildren to regret the
circumstance of the divorce.

cob of the Herald, and little re-
manned to be said by me. I was
most favorably received in the
Court House by an audience large
ly composed of workingmen, and !
was glad to deal with the question
from workingman's standpoint.
Despite the pressure produced by
Wheeling whisky, l feel very con-
fident that the workingmen will
see their own interests and will
vote the straight "No License"
ticket. Next Thursday will tell
the tale whether Wheeling's whis-
ky or Wellsburg's veal has more
influence in that town.
AN EXCELLENT LODGE
was formed here, that in coniunc-
ton with the w. C. T. U. will do
wonders in fixing Prohibition SOL
idly, SO that it cannot be shaken
by the annual pressure of Wheel
ing liquor dealers who. yearn for
Wellsburg money.
AT New CUMBERLAND l was
greeted by large audience in the
largest town hall / have seen in
West Virginia. The beautiful
structures on the ridge stand as
monuments of long years OF Pro-
hibition. So solidly intrenched is
Prohibition that the issue is now
no longer made in Hancock county.
And yet their delegate to the Leg
islature, at the behest of party
leaders, and scornful of the known
sentiments of his constituents,
voted in the last Legislature against
the submission of the Prohibitory
Amendment. Political action is
evidently needed, and better care
will be observed in the future. So
thoroughly organized are the Tenn
perance forces, that no attempt
was made TO form Lodge of Good
Templars, though l was impressed
with the Importance of bringing
this isolated sentiment into more
active connection with the State
work. More anon.
