The following rsscript was handed down
today by the Appetite Court in the case
OF James Ellis VS.. Mary Ellis: "Iilling-
hast, J. The evidence shows that the
petitioner was guilty of ante-nuptisl in
confluence with the respondent, and in
such circumstances he is not entitled to a
divorce on the ground that she was preg-
nsnt by another man at the time OF his
own transgression, concerning which she
deceived him.
GAS the conduct complained OF is not

the part OF the esbondept for the period
OF two years cannot be allowed to set the
discretion of the court provided for in the

Last Weeks Storm.

A tremendous rainstorm visited this city
Wednesday afternoon. Rain poured down
in binding sheets and in a short time
the streets were deluged Market gardens were
destroyed. In the city the creek left its banks
and covered with four or five feet of water
that section between the Baldwin, Pump and
Lewis street, destroying fences, flooding
premises and demolishing outhouses The
City Street Car Company loses $500 in dam
ages to its property besides having many ties
washed away. All over the western portion OF
the county heavy rains fell washing away
fences and doing other damage Mr.. Edward
Crawford, near Fort Defiance, had some cattle
drowned in field where nothing but small
spring branch flows usually The storm centre
was in Northwest Staunton and at Gypsy
Park. A tenement-house belonging to Robert
Knightly, near the park, was swept away.
Fortunately no personal injury was sustained,
but the destruction of property in the city
and county is heavy.

CIRCUIT COURT.

In the Circuit Court last week, the suit of

was 500. which was deposited in the defunct
Waynesboro Bank.

BILE in late years on account of its being food
ed by means of culvert which is said to be
insufficient, had another case in court this
term, which was compromised by the payment
to him of 81 900.
The appeal case of J. W.. Hall, former
saloon keeper at Basic was up on Saturday
and was decided adversely to Hall. Hall had
been denied license by Judge Chalkley, at a
recent term of the County Court, from which
ruling be appealed. But the Circuit Court
sustained the County court. Hall or his bar
tender had violated the law in selling to
minors.
In the case of Wilson & Trimble VS.. Hugh
f. Lyle judgment was rendered in favor OF
Wilson G. Trimble for s120. The case arose
out of a guarantee by Lyle of the payment of
a Mccormick reaper.

A Singular Occurrence.

An incident in regard to the electric lights
of this city was related to us as follows: A
few nights since the superintendent of our
electric light plant, Mr.. Gabbert was, coming
from the powerhouse to the city when he
noticed the light all over the city, suddenly go
out. In moment or two they again began
burning as before. He returned to the
power house and asked what was the matter,
and was informed that nothing had happen
ed there He then returned seeking the
cause. AS he came down Lewis street, he
noticed the wire which bore the main cur
rent broken and the ends hanging down On
investigation, he found that the wire had
parted and that the ends had fallen on the
track of the street car, which closed the cir
cult and the lights burned as if the wire had
never been broken.

met Mr.. Enos OFT and his wife who were rid
ing in buggy. and before they could get out
of the way these horses ran against the buggy
and smashed it, releasing their horse which
then ran off and rushed into the church yard
alarming the congregation. Strange to say
neither Mr.. OFT not his wife were injured by
the collision, though the buggy was smash ed.
1t was wonderful escape.
