The parties 70 the suit reside in the
south part of the county. in Salem
township, and are all well known and
highly respected.
The plaintiff brings suit against VIII
lam and Eliza Parker, the ia ther and
mother of her husband, Henry c. Parker
and IN the petition alleges that the de-
PENDANTS have aleniated the affections
of her husband, Henry c. Parker, from
the plaintiff, and that owing 10 the ef-
forts of the defendants sne the wife, ha :
been deserted by the aforesaid husband,
while her father-in-law and her mother
ir-law have so swoped down upon the
personal effects which belonged 10 her
and her husband jointly and have taken
away from her, among other things,
fourteen head of horses, ten hogs and
all the agricultural implements. and forr
all these alleged wrongs she prays that
she may be given a judgment of $4,000
and costs.
The petition further states that she
has been a dutiful wife to the aforesaid
Henry c. Parker, son of the two de-
PENDANTS, TO whom she was married on
or about Dec. q, 1887, and that she has
borne her husband six children between
the date of their marriage and Sept. 10,

pursuaded to desert and abandon the
plaintiff by the willful and malicious
conduct of his parents, the defendants
in this case.
She further declares that defendants
were not satisfied when they came down
upon her personal property and carried
the same away, and had driven their
son away, but they also took the five
living children born TO the fruit Of said
marriage, and that by the malicious,
meddlesome, willful acts of the defend
ants she has been reduced to poverty
and want, and is left childless and home
less.
A large number OF witnesses have
been subpoenaed on each side and the
entire south part of the county appears
to have taken sides one way or the
other.
The defendants are represented by
Stanley & Vermillion and Amidon &
Comfy, while Wall & Brooks are prose-
cutting the claims OF the plaintiff, who
is accompanied in court by her mother
and her black eyes sparkle with vendic,
tiveness as she recites her wrongs 10
the jury.
The defendant is not only one Of the
first settlers Of the county, but is a man
al mo nd
to fight any effort to saddle the judg-
ment against him.
A witness, in speaking of the case to
an Eagle reporter, said: Il tell you

Both sides are. of the makeup who
would rather y II an say enough, There
has been wrongs on both sides and
those who attend the trial will be in

The New York plan for free public baths
Is coming on famously. Five hundred public
bathrooms for the convenience of men,
women and children will be open all the
year round, securing absolute privacy for
individual bathers. By legislative author
ization appropriation for the construc-
ton of seven public lighthouses was Sc
cured; that was the way they managed in
New York. When completed the attend
ants will be city employees. 1t is proposed
to charge a nominal fee for soap, but there
will be no charge for towels or water. 1t
is said that there is To be an effort TO intro
duce public laundries also in New York.
Thus the metropolis moves on in the line
of progress indicated by British cities, Man
chester. Birmingham, Glasgow, etc, in es-
tablishing free public baths on such scale
that every citizen and his child can keep
clean i'm winter as well as In summer. The
