A CowardIy Assault.

Police Supernumerary Richard Hayden, a painter residing at 103 Broadway, was arrested yesterday morning by Captain Brewer and Officer Waas on the charge of assaulting his wife, who has been ill for over week. Yesterday morning Hayden entered her room with revolver in his hand. He caught hold of her, shook her and finally threw her out of bed, all the time fourishing the revolver over her head and threatening to shoot her. Her screaming was heard by the neighbors, who complained to Captain Brewer, and Sergeant Herman was sent to investigate. The latter reported that Mrs. Hayden was seriously ill from the shock which the as- sault had given her. A warrant was sworn out and Hayden was arrested. It will be some time, however, before Mrs. Hayden will have sufficiently recovered to appear in court. Hayden was mixed up in some trouble in Centerville a few months ago and was arrested at the time for attempt ing to take his wife from her parents home by force.

SUED FOR DIVORCE.

The Wife of a Railroad Conductor
 Seeks to AnnuI the Marriage Tie.
 Yesterdays Bridgeport Post says: Rod erick Beers, the we'll known conductor in the employ of the Consolidated railroad, who only g few months ago was welded to Mrs. Banks, wealthy widow, was few days since served with papers in divorce suit instituted against him by his wife through her attorneys, Lockwood & Beers. The plaintiff alleges in the complaint that since her marriage to the defendant she has been subjected to intolerable cruelty, and thus seeks the divorce upon that grounds.
 The plaintiff is the widow of the late Warren H. Banks, and at the death of the latter she fell heir to a large and valuable estate, estimated to be worth several hun dred thousand dollars. A part of the es- tate was the water front on the east side of the harbor adjoining the lower bridge and l recently purchased by James 5. Gregory. About two months ago the couple separated l and while the plaintiff continued her resi- dence in this city, the defendant with his | two children by a former wife went to live l in New Jersey. Mrs. Beers also complains | in the writ to the court that her husband
 has on divers occasions since their mar
 riage been guilty of adultery. It is said the defendant is to file 8 counter complaint
 The marriage of the two, only few
 months since, was subject which gos l sipers found much pleasure in talking
 about for many reasons. Now, with the divorce sensation immediately following
 society circles will be agitated for no little
 time to come. It is said there will bt
 some interesting developments when tht
 case comes before the superior court fol | trial. .-...... -.-.. -ss.,..

Arrested For Stealing Fruit.

Yesterday afternoon Frank Kohler was caught in Stephen Whitney's orchard with bagful of pears by the gardener, MT. McMahon, and turned over to the care of Sergeant McGann, who brought him to the precinct. MT. McMahon says that Kohler came there Thursday and went away with bagful of fruit. -
 The residents of this neighborhood are bothered every year by boys and men, and oftentimes by women and girls who come around at this season and make depreda- tions on the beautiful orchards and grounds around there. The police are vigilant, but they cannot spend all their time around those places. The gardener also keep strict watch, and there will probably be special watchman there be- fore long, and then woe to all who tres pass.

The Rice Family Reunion.

From the days of the earliest English dramatists fun has been made of the end less genealogies of the people of Wales. True to their Welch origin, the family of Rice has been in the habit of annually rec ognizing common descent from the first of the name who settled in early colonial days in Wallingford. The original name seems to have been Ap-price, from which have descended an immense family of Prices, Rices, Reeses, Rees, Royces and Royses. The Ricss of New Haven county have usually spelled their name 'tRice," although few have given preference to t'Royce." The gathering Thursday was at Locust grove, two or three miles north, of the Cheshire depot. Owing to a misun- derstanding as to the time of the gather ing, the attendance was somewhat smaller. than usual,
