The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-08-25

Since the candidates for representa-
tive in the fourth Worcester district
announced to the public through the
press, that they were out for the nomi-
nation, the fire under the local political
pot mas been smouldering and the pot
mas forgotten to even sizzle. How
ever, there has been a vast amount of
work done, and on a conservative esti-
mate the chances now appear to he
greatly in favor of George r. Hamant.
AS soon as The Spy announced that
n. Allen HarwOod was a candidate for
the nomination and that he took the
ground that 1t was high time the nomi-
nation went to farmer, Mr.. Hamant
and his friends bestirred themselves 10
md out how Mr.. Hamant stood with
the farmers of this town Many of the
farmers were seen and announced that
they We're perfectly satisfied with Mr.
Hamant as candidate and believed
that he would look after their interests
all right. The result of the canvass
mas been very satisfactory to the
friends OF Mr. Hamant, who now be-
gin TO feel confident that their man
has an easy victory already won.
moreover Mr.. Harwood has not nut
out any endeavors to capture votes
ana In campaign for a political office
or nomination nowadays, the word
along the line Is hustle Another thing
tnat has greatly increased Mr.. Ham
ants chances is the fact that the
farmers seem unable to agree upon anv
OF their own number to solidly SUPPORT
It is now extremely probable that Mr.
HARDWOOD will drop out of the fight as
his opportunity, which was believed by
many to be golden one, is every day
growing less on account of the lack Of
interest shown by himself

The first game last night was a rafting
good one from the start. Neither side was

o'connELLS MARITAL TROUBLE.
Release From Jail to Work and Pay
OF His WiRe's Alimony.

Vice Chancellor Emery this morning
advised a decree for a limited divorce to
Mrs. Annie O'Connell, of Fourth street,
from her husband, John, who has been
cooling his heels in the County Jail for
some months because he didn't pay his
wife's alimony pending the suit.
Mrs. O'Connelfs petition sets up that
her husband was continuously drunk n
in that state amused himself by pulling
her hair and twisting her arms behind
her back and other pleasantries calculat-
ed to cause pain and annoyance The
crisis was reached on a Christmas Eve
when his wife's mother ave a mixed
ale party. O'Connell partook too freely
of that warlike stimu1ant and was about
to fling his baby out of the window when
the ladies' interfered and a general row
followed. His wife then began her suit
for divorce on the ground of cruelty.
Pending the trial of the cause she was
awarded So a week alimony. John never
paid it, and when it accumulated to $10S
his wife's counsel had him clapped in
Jail for contempt.
This morning Johns lawyer. H. Melosh,
asked Vice Chancellor Emery to release
his client, who would go to work at his
trade of a plumber and pay off the all
mony and costs. The Court consented and
fixed a bond of $3.50 for the performance
of the agreement. O'Connell will pay
uring the next two months one-third of
his earnings to his wife. If he doesn't,
| then he goes back to Jail.
