wATERvILLE, Me-. Aug. 3.-Mra Eugene
Tufts Of Boston has brought suit for $4,000
against Mrs. Belle Gilman, one Of the wealthiest
women in this city. for alternating the affection
Of her husband. Eugene Tufts. The story dates
back for more than four years and before the
death Of Mr.. Gilman, at which time Tufts began
his visits at the Gilman home. He was here In
troduced as a cousin Of Mrs. Gilman. and on
each of his visits to tho city was received az
such. After the death Of Mr.. Gilman, about
three years ago. Mr.. Tufts came here very regu.
larry, and soon the people Of tho city began to
comment on it. He was here nearly half OF his
time for about q year, and then the engagement
Of the couple was announced.
After this there was not so much talk. Mrs.
Gilman and Mr.. Tufts went out in public a great
deal and 1t was expected that they were soon to
be married. Frequently on his visits Tufts
would send chickens from Mrs. Gilman's flock
to Boston to his sister, as he said. Tufts
had represented himself TO be a single man all
brought that Mrs. Gilman, so IL 10 asserted. be-

living.
Several months ago Mrs. Tufts became aware

who represented himself to be a rich New
Yorker. came here and engaged o room in a
house next TO Mrs Gilman's home. 1t was only
a day or two before the neighbors saw that the
man was not here to hunt and ttsh, but that he
was watching Tufts and Mrs, Gilman. He went
away from here for several days, but came. back
to-day. hunting for Tufts. whose whereabouts
cannot be learned.

ORANGE, N. j., Aug. S.-After nearly q year
OF blindness, which the doctors pronounced
hopeless, Alexander $. Utter OF Parker avenue,
Maplewood, has begun 10 see dimly, and there
Is a good chance that no may regain his sight.
Las' September Utter, who is 25 years old and
n printer. caught the measles from his son.
whom he nurscd through tho illness, aud as his
attack was q light one. he refused TO 20 to bed
or even to stop work. At that time he had
charge OF the mechanical department OF n
printing establishment in East Orange, and
there was no one to take his place. Friends
warned him that his illness was likely to affect
his sight, but no paid no attention TO their
warnings.
Shortly after his recovery from measles he
discovered one day that everything about him
seemed dim, US II seen through u veil. With
in n week his vision was so far destroyed by a
white Glm that gathered over the iris and
pupil that he could distinguish only the bright
est rays Of light. He went TO the Memorial
Hospital. and after six weeks was discharged,
practically blind, the doctors telling him that
he would never SEQ again. Utter and his
Family went to live with an uncle, Henry v.
Sanford. who recently moved to Maplcwood.
Tho young man was extremely sensitive about
his blindness, and would seldom go out OF doors
until evening, when no would ride his bicycle
up and down tho road, attended by his little
SON. At the sound OF approaching footsteps no
would'dismoun and turn his face away, lest 1t
should be discovered that he was blind. About
two weeks ago, while bicycling, he caught cold,
and the cold settled. in his eyes, iniaming
them greatly. They became sensitive, and u
strong light panied him when he opened them.
Then one day he found that he could dimly
distinguish objects. He was taken TO Il New
York specialist who examined his eyes and
said to him:
II can do nothing for you. I am sorry to:have
to tell you that you are stone blind"
I'm not so blind but that i can see you and
tho table to your right and tho chair over by
the window, said Utter.
Much astonlshed the specialist tested him
and found beyond doubt that no could see GER
tain large objects.
"Go back home and keep your eyes bandaged
for a few. weeks" said the physician. "Lator
on we will see what an operation may do"
Whom tho cold was over the sight grew dim.
mer, but Utter can now see better than no could
before he caught cold. A few days ago DR..
sutphen Of st. Michael.s Hospital, Newark.
xamined him and told him that In September.
o year from the time when he was stricken
blind, an operation could be performed which
might be successful. Utter IS very hopeful OF
recovering his sight, The case is regarded as
very remarkable and physicians here arc much
interested in IL.

THREW AN AXE At HIS WIFE.
Squire Found Her sitting In n Hammock with
the Boarder.

There was an exciting scene about midnight
on Monday night at the house Of Fred Squire In
Hendrix street. near Liberty avenue. in Brook.
Ign. Mr.. Squire, his wife, and two children
have occupied the little house for a year. A
month ago Oscar Johnson. a painter. who came
from Switzerland a few months ago, leaving, as
Is alleged, a wife behind him went to board
with them. Mr.. Squire for q week or 30 has
been jealous Of the attentions OF johnson to his
wife and on Monday night he crept into the yard,
when he was supposed to be at a lodge meeting in
New York. and found them seated together In
the hammock. He seized an axe. but was so
much excited that II went wide OF the mark
when he hurled il at the hammock. He then
rushed to the street. and his wild outCries
brought scores of alarmed neighbors to the place.
While he was still threatening to get another
axe and chop the heads otI both his wife ana
the boardcr, Sergeant Farley of the Liberty
avenue police station arrived and prevented
further hostilities.
Mr.. Squire refused to enter the house, and
accompanied the Sergeant to the station, where
he was furnished with a bed for the night.
When he got back to the house yesterday morn.
ing his wife had cleared out with the children and
gone to the home OF her mother. Johnson was
gone also, Mr.. Squire locked up the house and
came to this city.
Mrs. Squire says that it Is a case OF unfounded
Jealousy. and her neighbors believe her.
