NAUGHTY DELBASTY.
DID HE COMBINE CHARCUTERIE
WITH LOVE?
A Lady Who Says She is His Wife Has
Him on Trial for Unlawful lCohabitation
With Rival From Her Own Sunny
Country.

A very spicy case came up for trial
yesterday before Judge Shaw and jury
in department six. 1t was the cause of
Jean Delbasty, an Also street butcher,
who was charged with adultery by his
wife, some time in April. The allega-
tions in the case are as follows: Jean
Delbasty, who is a Frenchman, left his
native country several years ago, owing
to matrimonial troubles with his wife,
Augusta, taking away with him his
daughter, his infant son and woman
named Marie Villemer, who also had a
daughter. They came to America and
finally took up their domicile in this
city. Nothing was heard any more from
Mrs. Delbasty, who also came to the
United States and was settled in New
Orleans, until the month of May last when
Delbastys daughter, who was desirOus
of marrying and could not gain her
fathers consent, wrote to her mother
and obtained hers. The young lady
then married the object of her choice,
much to the displeasure of the father,
and trouble soon commenced for the
old man. Shortly after the wedding
Mrs. Delbasty came to Los Angeles and
not only secured the arrest of her hus-
band on the charge of unlawful cohab
itation with the Villemer woman, but
sued out a writ of habeas corpus
for the custody of her boy,
then about IL years old. This
writ was dismissed because it was shown
that the petitioner was a nonresident,
and the boy was returned to his father,
after having been taken care of during
the tendency Of the matter by Del
basty's attorney.
The first witness called to the stand
was Mrs. Delbasty, but her testimony
was unimportant. She produced
French marriage certificate which the
court ruled out until it was translated
by the court interpreter, Mr.. E. F. de
Cells.
The defendants daughter, Mrs.
Marguerite Sardou, testified that she
had come to the United States with the
Villemer woman and her father, and she
proved that they had cohabited from
that time on as man and wife. The
daughter of Mrs. Villemer testified sim
ilarly. In the afternoon Mr.. Hardesty
again tried to introduce the certificate
of the marriage of Delbasty to the COM
planning witness. 1t was once more
ruled out on technical grounds, and the
prosecution rested without having
proved the marriage of Delbasty. Sew
eral witnesses were heard for the de-
tense, who admitted that Delbasty had
acknowledged that there was madame
of the same name somewhere or other
These witnesses all opined that Mrs.
Villemer was only partner in business
OF Delbasty. The case will 60 to the
jury today.

Total vote cast 299; ne C assary for choice 150.
Five of the candidates having obtained
a ajority, the question was raised as to
who should be declared the nominees OF
the convention.
M. w. Conkling moved for reconsid-
Grafton of the vote declaring those who
had obtained majority of the votes the
nominees.
W. A. Ryan said that there must be
some mistake, and therefore the vote
must be invalid.
Chairman Patton announced that the
four gentlemen who received the highest
number OF votes were elected, but Col.
J. j. Ayers wanted to know how the con-
vention could validate an invalid vote in
that way.
A row seemed imminent, but finally
an error was discovered by one of the
secretaries, and the four gentlemen who
received the highest number of votes
were finally formally declared the nomi-
nees of the convention, without opposi-
ton.
1t being already after noon, a motion
was made to take a recess until 2
O'Clock, but Conrad Jacoby moved to
amend by making the hour l 80 O'Clock.
Finally, however, in order to accommo-
date the country delegates, the conven-
ton, on motion OF Judge Morgan of San
ia Monica, adjourned for a recess until

A New Jersey Woman Suffered for =
Week With Hydrophobia.
TRENTON. N. j.. Oct 19.-[Special.1 j.
Medical experts are interested in the case
of Mrs. William A. Maxson, who, week
ago. was in the throes of genuine hydro
phobia but is now pronounced cured by
DR.. William T. Rogers, ber attending
physician. She has been improving the
past week. but yesterday, for the first time
since she was taken with the disease, she
was able to sit up in bed, and enjoyed
light meal.
From the Wednesday preceding until
Sunday last she barked and snapped like
dog. and the strength of three men was re-
quired to hold her down as she passed
quickly from one spasm to another.
DIR. Rogers and other physicians say
there is no doubt that it was q genuine
case of rabies. and that the cure is remark
able after the disease had reacached such
an advanced stage. The bite which
brought on the attack was inflicted by q
pet dog five years ago. Mrs. Maxson is 80
years of age. She is of slight build and
mother of several children.
