DoMEsTIt1NFELlcITY.
Case Tried Before Judge Har-
ford Yesterday.
Nicholas valente Fined 50 and Costs
for Beasles M. wife.

Blood will tell and inherited taints
will crop out. and It may be that the
trouble In the Italian colony Of South
Portland can be traced back TO the days
Of the Gueiphs and the Ghibeliinea
However this may be, Judge Hartford had
20 settle yesterday afternoon case OF
domestic infslioity In the family OF Mr..
and Mrs. Nicholas valsnts, who live near
Rigby Park.
Before he was arraigued for beating his
wife, Augusta. Nicholas was tn, picture
Of despair. dc sat In one corner Of the
court room and wept bitterly. Tears
flowed down his cheeks and In the fer
vor Of his emotions. blood dropped from
his nose. His wife with scars on her
faos, cat sullen and imperturbable In an
adjoining room. while round about was
a cloud Of witnesses.
Nicholas, however, seemed to get a
"brace" on just as the trial began, and
admitted In his plea that he had done
things which he ought not to have done.
Three witnesses testified that the wife
was abused on Wednesday because abe
would not go out in the pasture and help
her husband at his work. They all said
that Mrs. valentie's condition precluded
such thing even II she was inclined
to do SO. That made no difference to
Nicholas for discipline In the family
must be main tained at all hazards, and
returning to the house he administered
1t with violence and face scratching.
I The Judge patiently listened to the
testimony. through an interpreter, found
the man guilty and imposed q fine Of 30
and costs, adding by way Of admonition
that II further complaint was made he
would lodge Nicholas in jail for period
covering the full extent Of the law.
1t looked as II Nicholas might be sent
to jail for 80 days ut least, yesterday.
When sentence was imposed he turned
round and In manner and with an ex-
preston more eloquent than words
piteously pleaded for Augusta to save
him, for she had the roll Of money. She
sat impassive and his appeal went un-
needed. whereupon self-sacrincing
friend from Portland's italian colony,
magnaniously stepped to the front, put
up SIS good American dollars and Nicho-
las Valente was free man once more.

sity Of hiring man 10 60 TO the Stable
ct four O'Clock every morning to feed
these horses an ingenious dsvice was ar
ranged which answered every purpose IN
til the arrival Of the above mentioned
grey horse. This device consisted Of two
alarm CLOCKS which were set 70 20 on nj
four o'clock In the morning. A heavy
weight was SO arranged that when the
alarm started the weight would drop. pull
q wirs which opened the trap doors and
the feed came tumbling down into the
managers of the horses. After the arrival
OF the grey horse IL was noticed that all
Of the horses became very hungry long
before noon each day. ! ! This could not be
accounted for until some one stood watch
to see what was the occasion for the
peculiar state Of affairs.
The watcher soon learned. After the
horses were fed at night and had eaten
all that was given them this grey horss
reached up and taking the wire In his
mouth pulled upon 10. Down came the
feed In the manager which was intended
