MatrimoniaIly MisalIied.

Mrs. Maria ID. Thorp of Antwerp, by
her solicitor, Mr. +. X. Annable, alleges
i'm her bill of complaint, filed in the
Office of the register in chancery for
this county, that she was married to
one Barrow G. Thorp in October, 1872,
and that she lived with him as his wife
until February, 1885. She further al
leges that, subsequent TO said marriage,
while living at Mattawan, her said hus-
band became acquainted with certain
disreputable woman and that he neg
lected his lawful wife for the purpose
of paying improper attention to his new
found charmer until his actions in that
regard became public scandal, and
that he finally deserted and abandoned
his welded wife and, as she is informed
and believes, went with the aforesaid
woman To the state of Wisconsin, leav-
ing her, his lawful wife, in destitute
circumstances, for which apparently
ample reasons she asks the court to
sever the matrimonial bond that unites
her to her recreant husband.
Mrs. Jane NJ Bidlack of Decatur, by
Hon. j. g. Parkhurst, her solicitor,
! likewise files her bill of complaint and
states that she was welded to one
Chas. f. Bidlack in August, 1862 and
"a
qipcuIO lndtrimOnii, i'm her favor and
against her said husband for the follow
| ing apparently valid, though briefly
stated causes, viz: That the said Chas.
f. Bidlack deserted your oratrix more
than five years since and has never
| lived with her since or returned TO live
with her, and has been guilty of ex-
treme cruelty towards your oratrix,
and the said defendant, being of suffi-
cient ability to provide a suitable main
tenance for her, has grossly, wantonly
and cruelty neglected SO to do"
Acenath johnson of Lawrence, by
her solicitor, A. III. Chandler, files her
bill of complaint praying for divorce
from her husband, Henry johnson, and
assigning as reasons why her prayer
should receive favorable considera-
| ton that she was married to him i'm
October, 1886; that within a week after
such marriage he began to treat her
with great unkindness, calling her hard
names and applying indecent epithets
to her, refusing to provide her with
needful clothing; that within about a
month after they were married, the
said Henry deserted and abandoned
her entirely and refused to live with
her any longer, since which time she
has been compelled TO earn her own
support; that he has accused her of
unchastity; that he has threatened TO
shoot her and in many other ways has
cruelty and wantonly misused her; all
of which she deems reasonable cause
for asking the interference of the court
in her behalf.

No exact figures are given as to the cost OF

than that Of horses.
1t is largely due TO the success OF these
two roads, thclonly ones which have been
in practical OPERATION long enough to make
comparison with horses or steam possible,
that electricity is now 80 widely discussed
by practical rarlfoad men. Counting the
smaller towns there are 200 cars running

4 UNIVERSITY FOR THE new SOUTH.
Technical and Scientific Edu-
cation, as well as Classical
and Literary.

The people Of the South have always
been conservative in educational matters,
as in everything else. While we have
needed practically trained men to Guilt
vate our neglected acres, open up our
mines and chain our water-powers to
machines for manufacturing our crude
products, our colleges have long chung
to the old classical curriculum and per
sisted in educating boys in the methods
of dead era. The schools which filled
the South with race Of orators, literary
men and politicians, scarcely ever
equalled, are not the schools to train the
great engineers, manufacturers and bust
ness men which we need to-day.
At last we see indications that the
school men are waking up to the de-
mands Of the times and to their oppor'
tunities. A number Of our colleges have
recently established schools Of mechan
ical engineering and laboratories Of sci
ence, and we expect soon to see them al
