The Same Old Story.

A distressing story of domestic infelicity
comes to the Journal from the brother OF
the young mother who with her two
moutlis-old babe was deserted by the hus-
band and father.
We understand that the young husband
went to well known lawyer and asked
that petition for Givorce might be drawn
up. The lsgal gentleman asked the hus'
band what ground he had on which to base
his petition, and the reply was that the wife
had on one occasion remained away from
home until IL O'Clock at night.
The attorney at once told the would-be
hem pecked husband to go home to his wife
apologize to her and stay there.
The young mother is obliged to seek en-
ployment to support herself and child.
We understand that the husband has
said that he will go away but that he
will send money enough home for the child's
support, but those who knew him well dc
not much encourage the idea that he will
do so. The couple were married about a
year ago.

LYNN, Mass Sept - Five of the EN-

Plant g. Co, on Washington street, were
followed by 500 men and boys to their
boarding house on School street last night.
They were hooted. and the cry of "scab'
was kept up by the crowd until the five
men reached their destination.
As they reached the head of School
street they were met by shower OF
stones, and everyone of the five WAS
struck. The stones came from the crowd,
la,t it is claimed they were thrown by
boys.
The men were not seriously injured, but
they were badly frightened. After they
got into the house the boarding house
keeper informed them that they would
have to get a new boarding place, as he
could not have scabs living in his house
There were no police present
All the stitchers In the factory are still
at work, and by n vote they have refused
to take part in the strike. The state board
of arbitration is in this city trying to nd
just IN alters. The knights of Labor have
presented their side, but it is understood
that the firm refuses to have anything to
do with it.
