DESIRING SEPARATION.
The case Of Caroline VS.. Carl A
Schmid. in the Circuit COurt---The
Test im0uV

hHe SaSt of SarOthue vs.. carr n.
Schmid. in the Circuit Court. The
Testimony.
The attention Of the circuit court is
now absorbed with the divorce case of
Carl A. vs.. Caroline Schmid, spoken of
yesterday, and which is one of the most
important of the term. BY mutual con-
sent trial by jury was waived, and it is
being heard before the court. The COM
plainsnt who is represented by E d.
| Sweeney - J. L. Haas appearing
for the defense alleges extreme
and repeated cruelty in her plea,
and asks for a divorce, and a
division of her husbands property,
which is worth 81, 900. The couple live
on Twentieth street, Mr.. Schmid being a
we'll known carpenter and contractor.
They have been married thirty five years
| and have had twelve children, nine of
whom are living, and all of whom have
had TO make their own way since they
| we're nine years of age. While cruelty is
the chief allegation of the petition there
are charges of immortality on the part of
the husband limited at
Yesterday Mrs. Caroline Schmid. the
complainant, testified to several acts of
cruelty on the part of her husband, men,
tioning three in particular. The first oc.

her ribs broken. from which she has suf.
fered ever since. being unable to work.
| The other two acts of violence were not
so marked, and simply consisted, as she
| AYERS, in striking her. She swears she
has bad to have treatment on account of
the broken rib, and has been an invalid
| since. She also testified to the cruel
treatment of her children by her husband,
and to his use of obscene and vulgar Ian,
guage to her in their presence, and that
he has several times threatened to kill
both them and her. She admits that she
has a temper and has often been provoked
| to talk back.
This morning the two daughters Emma
and Lottie, were on the stand, and cor
roborated their mother as to the minor
acts of cruelty. but they were too young
to know anything about the broken rib
charge. Lottie particularly testified TO
being beaten at one time with pitch
| fork and at another with shovel by her
father for simple offenses This after
noon the Oldest daughter. Mrs. Annie
Peters, of Marshalltowh. Iowa, is on the
stand. The oldest son, August Schmid
is taking an active part in his mothers
behalf. The case is likely to occupy the
remainder of the week.

A remarkably fast railroad run was
made last Monday. AT Il:l5 o'clock
broker called at the Reading Railroad OIL
fee in Philadelphia to arrange for g
special train to carry several undre
shares of stock to New York. Within fif-
teen minutes Assistant General Superin-
tendent Bonzano had everything ready
for the start, and the u to Jersey City,
ninety miles, was made III eighty-hve
minutes. This is said to be the fastest
run ever made between Philadelphia and
Jersey City.
The Central Railroad of New Jersey
has issued a public notice stating that
the new station of the Allentown Ter
minal Railroad at Allentown. Pa. will be
completed and opened for business on
Monday, March II. 1890. beginning with
which date all the passenger trains Of
the Central Railroad of New Jersey q
East Penn branch of the Philadelphia g.
Reading Railroad will run to and from
the new STATEN. Direct connection will
be made at the new station for all points
on the East Penn and Lebanon Valley
branches of the Philadelphia q Reading
Railroad, thus avoiding transfer.
There is. perhaps, no railroad mail
route requiring SO much work ms that of
the Morris g. Essex division. 1t is al
most impossible for II MAI to do the
work promptly, especially on the west
bound trip, and it is urged that an assist
ant be sent with him on that run. Let
us have this assistant pretty soon, in
order that we may get our mail more reg
ular.
Some fine day a band of maddened COM
muters will smash down the big door in
the ferry waiting-room of the d., L. &
w. road and will seize the man who is
supposed to attend to that door and throw
him nto the river. People who ride on
the ID. L. & w. road tell narrowing tales
of the ~annoyances they are subjected to
at that door. A train load of passengers
crowd into the waiting-room, the door
leading to the ferry is closed, there is a
ferryboat in the slip, the p%enned-up peo-
Pile nearest the door drum and hammer
on it to attract the attention of the man
who is on the outer side near the street
gate. BY the time he realizes that there
are dozens of impatient and angry men
waiting to be freed the ferryboat whistle
toots, the boat prepares to nov off, and
men whose time is valuable are com
PEELED to swallow their rage and wait for
the next boat. This thing will happen
once too often, and there will be a row.
Many of the regular passengers who can
not afford to TAKE the risk OF catching the
first boat in the pen, as the railroad wait
ing-room is called, 60 outside and enter
the ferryhouse from the street.

ADVICE TO MoTHERs.-MRs WINsLow's SooTH-
ING SYRUP should always be used when children
are cutting teeth. 1t relieves the little sufferer
at once; it produces natural. quiet sleep by re-
heving the child from pain, and the little cherub
awakes as bright as a button.' 1t is very
pleasant to taste. 1t soothes the child, softens
the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu-
lates the bowels, ana is the best known remedy
for diarFhoea, whether arising from teething or
other causes. Twenty five cents a bottle. -.
