Troubles Which Resulted From Two
Couples Living in One Summer Cot

From the philadeiphia Record.


Behind two divorce suits that are
scheduled for the June term of the court
of common pleas at Philadelphia there
lies strange story which bears a strange
resemblance to one of the famous tales of
Boccaccio. The cases are those Of Tunis
VS.. Tunis and Henry VS. Henry In both
cases the suits are brought by the hus-
bands, and each names the oSher as CO.
respondent The story dates back to last
summer, when Mr.. and Mrs. Tunis and
Mr.. and Mrs Henry, who were all fast
friends, rented cottage at Atlantic City
the hying expenses. In the latter part of
July, Tunis was obliged to start off on a
business trip, and, yielding to his wife's
persuasiops, permitted her to remain at
the seashore. In August, Mrs. Henry be-
gan to suspect that her husband was too
attentive to Mrs. Tunis, and, af-
ter the whole party had returned
home in September, she claims
TO have obtained evidence of their
guilt. Mrs. Henry did not make scene.
She simply ascertaiued Mr.. Tunis adj
dress and wrote him full particulars
This brought the absent husband home in
quick time, and on his arrival he was met
by Mrs. Henry, who produced for his
benefit the proofs she had gathered Of the
guilt Of his wife and her husband Mrs.
Henry and Mr. Tunls then resolved to
keep a careful watch in order to secure
more eyldence. The two watchers having
the same object in common, We're thrown
a great deal in each others society, and
It is claimed In the libel in the Henry VS..
Henry case that the same kind of an init
macy resulted as that which is alleged to
have existed between Mrs. Tunis and Mr.
Henry Neither case is likely TO be con-
tested, and the DEGREES of divorce will
speedily follow the the taking of the tes-
timony. IL is whispered. too, that that
the divorces are likely to be followed by
two weddings. in which the brides and
grooms will simply have changed part
ners.

A BIG HORSE.
Peter, 90 Hands, 1900 Pounds-And
He May Be Bigger.
From the seattle Telegraph

From the Seattle Telegraph.
A freak of nature and world wonder in
the shape of horse drew many of the
curious to the livery stable on South
Third street yesterday. This specimen of
the equine kind is unquestionably the
tallest in the world. 1t is, in fact, a colt,
not yet 3 years old, measuring the enor-
nous hight Of 90 hands, feet and 4
inches. In weight this horse wonder tips
the scales at LOO pounds.
Peter chat is his name) is a gelding,
and was foaled in Minnesota in June,
1891. He IS of Norman stock, and beau
| thul dapple gray in color. What is
almost as remarkable as his huge proper
| ton is the fact that his dam and sire were
not above the average size of that breed
| OF horses Another colt from the same
| dam and sire year younger than Peter,
| but proportionably as large, if not larger,
| died some months ago.
Peter, as evidenced by his weight. is a
well pToportioued animal His limbs are
| clean cut, and the head, body and neck
| Of good form. He Is, as is the case with
many colts, little bit swaybacked, but
! this imperfection, horsemen say, will dis
| appear with age. The hips are a little
| higher than the highest point of the
! shoulders, from which the hight and
! measurement is usually taken
! Should the horse grow to maturity. it
/ is not unreasonable TO expect that lie will
| attain fully six inches more in height and
| develop proportionately otherwise carry
| ing weight possibly of 3 600 pounds. A
/ gelding seldom attains its full hight
| until soven years old, While mares gener-
! orally mature two years younger
There is nothing of record, several
! horsemen said yesterday, which equals
! the hight Of the colt in question Several
| years ago, however, there was horse on
exhibition in Toronto, Canada, which
| weighed 2,s00 pounds
Peter is physically sound and healthy.
! At such an age, growing with the rapidly
! that he is, he could not retain much flesh.
1 though he might be said to be in good
/ trim for work His carriage is good and
/ movement far less clumsy and awkward
than might be expected of an animal OF
such proportions.

OF England. who was compelled to leave the
