New YORK, Sept 1S.-William Bohan,
who gouged out his wifes eyes, one early last
year and the other in July last, was tried
Monday in the county court of sessions in
Long Island City before Justices Garretson,

dicted by the grand jury on two counts, one
referring to each eye. He was tried on one
case. Mrs. Bohan was in court and made a
vain endeavor to save her fiendish husband
from the punishment due his crime. Her
testimony was given unwillingly. When the
jury brought in verdict of guilty the pris
