WIFE'S RUSE.

Tired of Country Life, She Adopted Extra
ordinary Expedients to Get Away.
Tired of q monotonous existence in a
small country town, Mime. Auclert, wife
of medical practitioner at Brezolies,
in the Beauce. adopted strange meas
ures for the purpose of freeing herself
from martial control, says Paris letter
to the London Telegraph.
She wrote anonymous letters to her
husband and i'm these epistles accused
herself Of breaking her marriage VOW,
THE doctor disbelieved the charges for
mulated in the letters, which he tore up
and burned with many a shrug of his
shoulders. Nine. Auclert then turned
her hands to incendiarism and set fire
to barn near her abode.
After the place had been burned down
she told erhusband that she wanted to
leave a district peopled by savages, who
intended next, no doubt, to fire her
dwelling. Laleu, man Of no conse-
quence in the town, was reported to the
gendarmes as the criminal who had
burned the barn and, filled with fright
at the prospect of impending arrest, the
poor wretch hanged himself.
The anonymous letters still continued
to rain on the doctor, who at last dis
covered that his wife's handwriting
was wonderfully like that in which the
missives were written.
Nine. Auclert confessed everything
and has been tried at Charities on a
charge of incendiarism. The jurors
found this new Mime: Bovary fully re-
sponsible for her actions in spite of the
defense set up by the able lawyer from
Paris who had charge of her interests,
and she was condemned to five years
imprisonment.
