against Carey Il. Bcachtel was heard
by Judge Badger. The wife testified
to the effect that there was one thing
her husband was regular in, He had
regular habits about whipping her. He
did this about once a week until she
left him, when he threw her out of the
house one night at midnight about
three years ago.
They were married at Wesley Chapel
In 1892. She told about his having
thrown her down on the floor and tried
to force paris green down her throat.
She said she protested at this. They
kept house one week and during that
time she wanted to go to see q rela-
tive. He objected and tried to throw
her out Of the window. A gentleman
standing by grabbed her by the feet,
preventing tragedy.
Mrs Beachtel said that the night of
their marriage her husband tore her
dress from her, and also other personal
wearing apparel, and threw them about
the room. Beachtel. who is now at
Akron, sent back letter as an an,
swer to his wife's petition. In it he
tells that he is satisfied with the
charges and If she gets divorce he
hopes she will be as happy as he will
be. He also spoke of meeting her at
the 'Pearly Gates Ajar.' The wife
was granted decree.
