and the cruelty of the Spanish govern

government had officially blown up the
Maine, and thought annexation would
be desirable. The Hawaiian Islands
might prove as profitable as Alaska
had been. The United States would d
well to annex more territory, say Brit

CFrom The Heralds Correspondents.)
Provo, March 19.-News has just
reached the officers that Mat Hanson, a
man residing at Lake View, in a fit OF
jealousy, attempted to cut his wife to
pieces, night before last, at the home
of Mr. Draper, on Provo bench. Han
son came to Diapers house and, with
knife in hand, knocked at the door.
When the door was opened, Hanson
rushed at his wife win a threat that
he would pin her 10 the wall, and he
would certainly have done so had not
Mr.. Ora. err rushed between them and
grabbed Hanson's arm.
The causes which led up to this at
tempt by Hanson upon the life Of his
wife are about as follows: Hanson.
who is about 40 years OF age, was, UP
TO about six months ago, a bachelor.
Last fan he met at American Fork the
young woman whom he attempted to
cut 10 pieces and, after a courtship of
only six weeks, married her His wife,
at the time of her marriage, was only
20 years of age, without parents, and at
that time the mother Of an illegitmate
child. Mrs. Hanson. before her mar
riage, made known to her husband her
former life, and ii was agreed that the
past should be forgotten and the mar
rage cCESummated. Shortly after the
marriage. however, Hanson became
suspicious of his young wife, and &C
cused her Of improper relations with
some OF her former associates. AS time
passed the estrangement grew, and
Mrs. Hanson says that her husband
treatment became so extremely cruel
thai she could not live with him.
About a week aeo she left her home
and weEt 10 the house Of Marion ORA
per. on Provo bench, to live. 1t was
while at Mr.. Diapers place that her
husband made the assault upon her
life. Mrs. Hanson has appealed to the
officers for protection, and if what she
says : true. her husband is a very
dangerous man. Criminal proceedings
will be commenced against Hanson to-
morrow, and the officers Will take him
into custody
