Wife and Daughter Insane.

John Schlemmer, farmer living
out neer Moran, tas filed papers in
the probate court charging that his
wife, Elizabeth Schlemmer and his
daughter, Lizzie Schlemmer, are both
insane. The case came up for bear
ing in court yesterday, Deputy
Sheriff Hutton having brought the
defendants in from Moran this morn
ing. Mrs. Schlemmer was in an
asylum some fourteen years ago, and
was discharged as cured, but the
former malady seems to have re-
turned.
The trial came up for hearing before
a jury at 2 o'clock and the statements
made by the lawyers indicate that
the prosecution will be made on the
ground that Mrs. Schlemmer was not
cured when she left the asylum before
and has since grown worse, while the
daughters malaty is of few years
standing. Both of them are said to
be afflicted with harmless hallucna-
tions. The defense, on the other hand
will set up the claim that Mr.. Schlen-
mer is a wife-beater and that he
brings this action in revenge for the
suit for divorce filed few days ago
by his wife; and to secure property
which she shares.
The whole affair is very painful
one and of q most distressing
nature, and the crowded court room
was visibly affected by the tears of
the poor old mother, sixty years of
age, and by the drawn look of weary
i'll health on the face of the daughter.

TROUBLE AT HARTFORD GAM.

 Foul Work.

Contest Forfeited Through Fall River S | Foul Work.
 Hartford, Feb. 20.-Early in the third
 period of the polo game tonight, when the score was g to in favor of Hart ford, Referee Lush called foul on Hef- fernan, the Fall River goal tend. It was the third foul called on the Fall Rivers and took away one goal. Kid Conway was exasperated because the foul was called and he had some words
 with Lush early in the game for calling a foul on him. Lush wanted to get the
 ball to put it in play and Conway knocked the ball into the gallery. Lush then called the game and declared it forfeited to Hartford.
 Colonel Graves of the Hartford man. agement announced tonight that Hart ford would not hereafter play with Fall River at any place. The team was the cause of a fiasco once before here this season. If the league objects to this ac- tion Hartford will drop out The Hart ford managers said they would not be fooled any longer.

MISS CHARLOTTE S. DewITT.

Miss Charlotte S. Dewitt, aged eighty-nine years and four months, died in Milford yesterday. The deceased was born in Milford and at the time of her death was one of the oldest residents of the town. Although death was due to old age, she held full possession of her faculties up to the last. She resided in New Haven up to ten years ago and was member of the old College street church.
