THE DAILY DIVORCE SUIT.
TIE usual divorce suit to-day was OF
more than ordinary interest. The parties
are Jacob Engers and Johanna Engers,
the latter native of Germany who has
yesided here for some ten or twelve
yeErs. They were married in this county
in April, 1878, and have since resided on
buildings, in which they lived and con-
dlCied profitable business for the
amount of capital invested; and they
u.ie money.
TIE marriage has not proven HAPPY
one, snd the nelghbolS say that Jacob
snd Johanna have many fslllngs cut
jacob went before the CountyAttorney yes
ter&sy and made an iaviE agalns. his wife,
charging her with lunsCy. Not being
aoe 10 speak or understand English, she
Rss carried before ths court and tried
TlloGs so much Is even knowing the ha-
ture OF the proceedings.
The evidence went to show thst she
was subject to monthly attacks Of a
chronic nature, and when they came on
her she became violent and refused to be
treated for her relief.
The trial, however, resulted in dis
charge until to-mo row morning at lO
o'clock, wnen Judge Bower will call the
case and sift 1t thoroughly.
Learning the nature OF the charge upon
which she WAS carried into court, Johanna
this morPing fled her petition for d.
VoIce. In her petition, SIZE recites her
story as follows: -
"Thst on or about the month OF JAN
uiry, 1887, defendant beat, bruised and
maltrested plaintiff by Shaping her jaws,
bruising her face and blsc6eniDg her srmB
in her Efforts to ward Off his
blows; that on or about the month
Of March, 1888, defendant again assaulted
her in their residence on Ross avenue,
irst drawing stick Of stove wood and
threatened TO kill her, he then dropped
the stick Of wood and struck defendant
with his fists on the face when one OF the
neigabors interiered aDd made defendant
desigt in his further abuse of her person
under threat that he would shoot de-
iendant II ne did not desiSt in his bru-
nlity.
That to-wit: On the 14th day Ct June,
lSSi, to esp the climax and place the
crOWnlrg outrage upon the pyramid Of
outrsges previously he ped upon Plaintiff
fe the defendant, proceeded 10 make
IN llyit against her before The county a.
tOEney ST Dallas county, Texas, falsely,
