ALIENATED AFFECTIONS.
w. NJ. Copeland Wants $4,000
Damages From q. S. Samp-


Yesterday afternoon w. NJ Copeland
through his attorneys, Patterson and
Wallace, fled suit in the district court
against B. s. Sampson for 5000 dam
ages for the alleged alternating of HE
wife's affections. The story of Cope
lands domestic woes has already been
partially published as a result of q
former appearance in court growing
out of them.
In his petition Copeland states that
he Is resident of Colorado Springs,
Colo, and the defendant resident of
Ell Paso. He alleges that he was mar
married to his wife, Sadie Copeland, in
1893, and that they lived happily to-
gether until during the early part of
last year when they moved to Las Cruces
for the benefit of his health and there
met Sampson. Then according to
plaintiffs allegations the latter sue
ceeded in exercising such influence
over Mrs Copeland as to induce her to
abandon her husband and live with
him.
Sampson Is mail clerk running on
the Santa F'e between Albuquerque
and Ell Paso and is widower. his wife
having died in Las Cruces. Some weeks
ago Copeland and Sampson came to
gether over the matter and Copeland
was arrested and fined for disturbing
the peace as a result.

CONVICT'S LOVE OF HOME.
John Brlmhdll, Who Escaped From
the Texas penitentiary, Gives
Himself Up That He May Go Back
n HE noonIo
To His People.

Sheriff Murray came into Ell PasO
from Phoenix, Arizona, last evening
over the S. P, having in charge John
Brim hall, who is wanted at the Texas
state prison as an escaped convict.
but Brimhall not only came of his
own accord from Arizona to Texas, :"
said Mr.. Murray, "but he voluntarily
surrendered himself to me at Phoenix
in the first place. We hesitated about
receiving him, but he insisted on the
truth of his story. There was some
d clay in getting an answer from the
Texas prison authorities, and during
the wait, Brim hall was one afternoon
released from jsil to take q walk and
| found himself so far from the jail at
dark, that he staid at hotel and re-
| ported at the jail again the next morn
ing"
Brimhall says he will be A years of
age on the 2lst day of this month, and
| he loOES to be a simple, hard working
| fellow.
II was convicted of horse stealing in
Cherokee county, at Rusk in 1885," he
said this morning, ''even though ! was
| not guilty. and on the second trial l
was given five years. Ten years ago
escaped, a year before my term was
complete, and 1 have been all over the
| west since, but never satisfied, and all
the time longing to have the feeling of
freedom that l have never been able to
enjoy.
| CAT last, l became so anxious to see
my old father and mother, who live
near Weatherford, in Parker county,
that could stand it no longer, and l
have determined to go back aud serve
out my time, and then go home to
| them once more.'
Brimhall is in Jail here, awaiting the
arrival of the prison authorities, who
have wired that they will send for
him.
