Sunday Doings in Chicag

Last Sunday things were quite lively
in that portion of Chicago known as
South Africa. Early in the morning a
man named Marshwood living on Dear
born near 9th quarreled with his wife
who is enciente, knocked her down and
gave her a beating from which she has
not yet recovered. With the dawn of
day, rushing the growler began and Wig
orously proceeded all day, and, before
night, many disgraceful scenes had been
enacted. Mr.. Adams lives with his wife
and daughter on Ruttertield street. 1t
seems that gentleman had imbibed too
much bug juice, for when he returned
to his residence at about 10 O'Clock he
picked upa large meat dish which be
broke over his wife's head. Mrs. Adams
did not seem to appreciate such tokens
of affection, SO she lifted a hugh water
melon which had been bought for din
ner, and gently deposited the same on
the top of her husbands Uranium. This
| sobered him somewhat but he was SO
angry that Mrs. Adams would dare
strike back, that he broke every dish in
the house, gave his wife and daughter a
thrashing and left to conquer other
worlds.
On 9th st. stands little cottage
where happy couple dwelt. Early
Sunday morning the lord of the castle
returned and found his wife and four
gentlemen having high old time. Beer
had been flowing freely and the party
were singing, laughing, talking, and
having a good time generally. When
the husband appeared the four gay
young men left for parts unknown leay-
ing the poor woman to be we'll pounded
by her irate spouse.
In the afternoon one Of the leading
society young men was arrested and
took ride in the patrol.
