regulating the liquor traffic by a tax or

Mr.. Work, however, showed that ma

was the only party committed TO this
policy, and that therefore all men who
are In favor Of crushing out the traffic

showed that the false issue of high

A Husband Puts Hot Potatoes in His
Wifo's Har.

Mrs. Mary Deville has filed an appli-
cation In the common pleas courts ask
ing to be divorced from her husband,
John Deville. She alleges in her peti.
tion that the defendant was guilty OF
extreme cruelty towards her in this:
That in November, 1887, he choked her
and cursed and swore at her, telling her
and the children to leave the house.
The plaintiff further says that on var
ious occasions the defendant beat,
kicked and choked her, and on one oc-
casion he put hot potatoes in her ear,
thereby injuring her hearing She also
says that the defendant has called her
vile and indecent names and that he
has been guilty of habitual drunken
ness for the three years last past. She
prays to be divorced and to have the
custody Of the minor children and have
such reasonable alimony as the court
thinks proper. She was married to the
defendant In 1873.
