WILLIAM ROSTER GRANTED A DIVORCE
More About Cornelius LUX. the Preach
er-One of His Former ParishiOners
Tells Why She Deserted His
Church-No Defense.

William Roster was granted divorce
from Fanny Roster, IN the Superior
court yesterday, on the grounds Of
cruelty. This is the case which grew
out of the attentions paid the defend
ant by Rev. Cornelius LUX. the alleged
free-loyer preacher. tLuik is at present
locked up IN the county Jail. He was
arrested on a capias few weeks ago
ID suit for $4,000 damages brought by
Roster, who charges him with aliena-
ting his wife's affections.
The case attracted considerable at
tention. Mrs. Roster, VINO is a rather
prcpossessing woman Of IS or 40, sat in
the court room as spectator. Roster
testified that his domestic relations
were all that could be desired before
the preacher appeared on the scene.
After that she neglected her household
duties and her children, and was fire.
quently away from home. AS long as he
! thought her religious feelings We're the
cause of her misfortune, he made
every effort 10 bear with her. He
would allow her to 60 TO church three
times on Sundays, while he remained
at home and washed tho dishes and
took care OF the children. Her visits
became too frequent, though, and the
preacher commenced TO habItually
visit his home during his absence.
| These stores were told him by the
nelghhors. and he demonstrated with
her. He finally became suspicious that
| their relatiO4s were not exactly such
as should exist between minister and
! parlshiOner. Frequent quarrels were
| the result, and at one Tune the wife
! threatened to stab him. For nights
| he lay awake for fear she would
put her threat into execution.
| He SAID he had been informed that
LUX had told his female Pensioners
to carry knives and stab their husbands
# they became troublesome. He
| further testified that the "free lovers"
church, OF which LUX was the spiritual
| head, was located III the minister :
| house on Cass-st., and that he had
about fifteen female followers. After
one of their quarrels Mrs. Koster went
! TO live at the preachers home.
Mrs. Flora Baker, who resides on
/ Spring-st., testified that six years ago
size used to attend TO Luk's church.
One day he visited her home and made
indecent proposals TO her. She resented
his advances, and he attempted to as
ssult her. She told him she would in
/ form her husband, and this frightened
! nm. After this she never attended
| his church.
A peddler named Button, at one
/ time sold butter at Luiks house. He
| testified that the preacher asked him if
/ he could tell him where he could pro-
cure a nice woman. lie SAYS LUX told
him that he should know OF some wo-
man, as he was always visiting their
\ houses, and that he ought to be able to
/ dlscern the ones that were rot over
/ scrupulOus.
/ There was no defense, and Judge

ALIEGAS, Mich. Nov. 22-The town
ship Of salem is greatly stirred up over
a most revolving story Of crime and
bruushness that has recently come 10
light. For some eight years knoch
Perkins has been living there with his
family OF -four children, hls wife hav-
iug died about i've years ago. HIS
daughter Amanda = IS years old, and
she came 10 Allegan yesterday after

ZION against sanford Smith, a nesghbor,
aud incest against her father. Her
story was that February last smith,
who is 25 years Of age, and has been
married, but claims 10 have divorce,
seduoed hel under 4 promise OF
marriage, and that her father
learning of this last July, instead OF
condemning Smith for has acts, de-
manded that she should treat him as
she had Smith, and that she had sub
mtted 10 the lustful desires OF both
these men; that this ran along until
some four weeks ago, when che Was
sick and thinking she was about 10 he
come a mother, she told some OF the
neighbors that she could not tell
whether smith or her father would be
the parent OF the child. This nat
urally aroused the ind lgnatlon of

her TO leave nome and 90 10
an aunts, which she did, aud
by the advice of friends has
decided 10 tell the whole story, and
make complaint. She told ner story
apparently ia a straightforward man
ner until she heard some one say that
1t would send her father 10 states
prison, and then she commenced 10 fall
ter, and said little more. Warrants
were issued for Smith and Perkins, and
the officers went to salem NJ once, but
could ret no trace OF Smith, who had
evidently learned what was IN the wind
and skipped out. Perkins was arrested
and this morning was taken before JUS
tice Day. He denied the charge as to
himself, but said ne had reason 10 be-
lleve they were true as 10 Smith
though he had never spoken 10
hlm or his daughter about
1t. Amanda was sent for and was asked
TO repeat her story IN the presence Of
her father, but instead OF dong SO said
her father was innocent and the Smith
alone was guilty. The surprised prose
cutor questioned her closely and she
finally SAID her father had been guilty
one time in July, but the only time.
She said also she would rather lie than
have her father sent TO prison, and her
stories were SO unreliable that the pros
ecutor decided they would not do tO
hold her father on, and ordered his DIS
