MRS. AGAc|O DIVORCED,
Singular Tale of Woe by the
Wife of a Rich Guatemala
Planter.
He Eloped With Another and Mao
lected and Threatened His
Spouse.

Mrs. Elena Agacio, wife of Antonio r
Agacio, wealthy Guatemalan coffee.
planter, was yesterday granted divorce
from her husband, the evidence in the case
revealing unusual heartlessness on his
part. Some time ago the husband brought
suit for divorce against the wife, but She
heard of the proceedings and entered the
present suit, on which the decree was
granted to her.
In her statement the wife told how she
was married on June 13, 1870, at ST. Johns
church, Manchester, England, and after
ward lived happily with her husband for
i've years. there being four children from
the marriage. She said her husband. who
was "a Chilean and man of violent and
passionate temper" struck her in the face
owing to few trivial words about dinner.
Thereafter he deserted her for four wears
not sending her money, and she was COM
peiled to make baby clothes for sale.
Afterward there was a reconciliation and
the pair went to Guatemala.
Ihere Mrs Agaclo says her husband be-
came acquainted with one Charlotte
Batres, with whom he subsequently eloped.
after sending his wife back to England.
His wife saved up money and followed
him to Santa Ana, but had to live in

bed and a piano." while her husband lived
In luxury at a villa. Even then her hus-
band struck her with his whip, and she
says she would have been killed but for
the interference of his manager. Her
statement concluded:
My husband is man of high position and
means. He is consu general for several re-
publics in Paris. He has shares in the pier at
Santa Ana, and is the sole proprietor OF the
only distillery allowed to make the native
wine there, and he is possessed OF large coffee
plantations in Central America. have always
led true and virtuous life.
Mr.. Agacio protested that he was only
earning $50 to 500 per month and could
not provide for her. Francisco Ojeda, a
well-known San Franciscan, corroborated
the wife's testimony, and she was accorded
q decree on her cross-complaint.

made up the Irish brigades in the Eighties
that went to India.
"Eighty-six had been in India since 1843,
and this draft in which I found myself
was to augment the depleted ranks of that
regiment. On the Doth of January, 1857,
we embarked on the transport Nile at
Liverpool for Bombay. There were $50 of
US, all told, under Captain Adams. I'll
tell you more about him presently. We
landed at Bombay on the 30th of June and
were consigned to Coal Harbor barracks.
When we were there two days the alarm of
assembly sounded early in the morning,
and we were told to prepare for marching
at once. 1t was o'clock in the morning
and we were not armed; and no one
seemed to know what was I'D. Off we went
to Dungeree Green mile down the road,
where we found lot of native mutineers
of the Twenty-frst Bombay Native In
fantry guarded by the Second Bombay
European Infantry. 1t was only the left
wing of the Twenty-frst that had mutinied,

"Well, we were drawn up in line, and
before we knew what was up the SEN
tence of the court-martial was read both in
English and Hindustani. They had been
tried for high treason and INSTRUMENTATION,
and the verdict was guilty. Now, if you
ever saw that big picture up at the art
gallery on Mob Hill you know what the
punishment was in those days.
Cali at once battery of six guns was
drawn up in front of our lines. The gun
ners were in shirt.sleeves and wore helmets.
There was cali for volunteers-for volun-
teers to stand up in front of the guns and
be blown to death without being tied. We
