ing on the verge Of death because of brutal
treatment by her husband, Cornelius,
~. As rpwrlTas nan be ascertrined thu Atrouhid
began Friday night, when Cornelius as he
claims, gave his wife $40 bill to purchase
groceries with, and on her return Cornelius
requested the change, and as none was forth
coming he began to beat his wife, ending his
chastisement by kicking her in the abdomen
and giving her terrific blow on the left side
Of the head, rendering the unfortunate wo-
man insensitie
In course of time she partially recovered,
but still showed signs of being seriously in
jured internally.
Matters continued to grow worse until
Sunday, when Cornelius, not satisfied with
his previous work, beat his wife again for
some trivial matter, which quickly brought
about dangerous symptoms
Della grew rapidly worse until yesterday
forenoon. Then the neighbors began to
get alarmed Two of them volunteered to
take her to the city hospital. Upon ex-
animation she was found to be seriously in
jured and her body was covered with bruises
A knife wound was found in her abdomen,
which it was afterward learned was inflicted
year ago.
Cornelius is burly, dissipated fellow VINO
claims to be groom. His wife has served
time for shoplifting He is under arrest

Assessment OF Women In Boston.

BosroN, Sept. 26-The assessment OF
women at the city hall is a very interesting
scene. The assessors room is crowded with
circle of women about every center OF in
formation, and a great many more standing
or moving about as if uncertain just what to
do. The proportion of American and Protes-
tant women being assessed appears to be in
the proportion Of about two to one Irish or
Catholic women; and it is noticeable fact
that while the former come to be assessed
singly, or at most in twos, the latter are
generally found in squads Of half dozen,
and seem to be acting under the guidance Of
men, who manage the details and the process
of assessment for them. Some of the women
are old and some quite young, but the ma
jority are of middle age. All seem to take
the proceeding much in earnest, though
smiling faces are common enough; and not
few appear to be quite uncomfortable, and
now and then an applicant looks somewhat
