THE WRIT is SERVED
Sequel to IA Remarkable Domestic
Difficulty

The story of a sad farce in the fam
lily relations of two Des Moines peo-
pie is told in the dispatches, which
relate the fact that for 20 years Mr..
and Mrs. John Halpin had lived in
the same house and in the same room
separated only by a chalk line, but
as thoroughly separated as though a
stone wall extended between them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Halpin were divorced
20 years ago. By the terms of the
decree the man Ewas to retain the
homestead land the woman was to
take up her Eabode elsewhere. But
Halpin yieldedIto his former wife's
petition and agreed to permit her and
their son, who took his mothers
part, to live in the house on condi-
ton thatI chalk line should divide
it into halves, and the two sides of
the family should not cross the line.
The line Twas drawn through the
wide, old fashioned sitting room cut
ting thethouse into equal parts. For
20 years it was as good as barrier.
The divorced man and wife we're
frequently within few feet of each
other, but always ignored the fact.
They never spoke. Recently the
compact twas broken, but not by
either Eof thel original principals.
Halpin's son, who lived on the moth
er's side of the chalk line, grew to
manhood and cherished resentment
against his father. He caused trou-
BILE by crossing the chalk line and
the old man finally had the ejectment
papers served on his wife and trou-
blesome son and the ridiculous trav-
esty on human companionship has
come to an end.

SEVERE ATTACK.
ChaS. E. Woods ProsIrated by Unusual
Excitement.

Chas. E. Woods, living at 1901 Sec
ond avenue west, was taken with
series of spasms while eating supper
at the Hopes soup house on High
avenue west Sunday evening He had
been at the Holiness camp meeting
all day and on returning to the city
went to the soup house to get his sup
per. While it was being prepared for
him he was taken suddenly ill and
asked for place to lie down. He was
shown a bed in the back of the house
and had hardly reached it when he
was taken with a severe spasm and
became unconscious. Medical assist
ance was called and after some trouble
he was able to walk home with the
assistance of Two of the bystanders.
He was better this morning and in a
fair way to recovery. 1t is thought
that the unusual excitement and heat
during the day brought on the attack.

KRUSKoPF RETURNS.
Marshalltown's DeiauIting Deputy
Postmaster Mental Wreck.

Marshalltown, Aug. 19.-Footsore,
weary and nearly famished, Mar
shalltown's defaulting deputy post
master, Max Kruskopf, voluntarily
returned home Saturday. For three
days he had wandered in a dazed
condition, bordering on dementIa,
through fields and woods, touching
at intervals at small towns, only to
again fly to the wilds of nature,
impelled by the delusion of his de-
fuddled brain that he was being pur-
sued by enemies bent on hanging
him. Thus he covered nearly fifty
miles on foot in the three days, dur
ing which time he had par taken of
but two small lunches, the total cost
of which was but % cents. With
over $50 in his pockets, he forbore
to purchase even the necessities de-
manded by nature, since in his mud
died brain lowered the thought that
the money was not his and that he
must not spend it.
He was N state of utter collapse
from nervousness and exhaustion,
and as soou as he reached this city
he was placed in hospital, where
he will remain until he will be in con-
dition to be taken to Des Moines,
where he will be given a chance to
explain the shortage of $500 from the
accounts of the Marshalltown Office.
He has the sympathy of the residents
of Marshalltown, who attribute his
downfall to drink.

CAUGHT THE WILD MAN.
The CoIored Burglar who Created Ex-
element Saturday Under Arrest.

The colored man who was raising
such a disturbance in this neighbor-
hood Saturday was caught near
Muchakinock Saturday evening by
Constable Tansel. The mans name
was not Clay as was at first supposed
but when arrested he gave the name
of James Duke. He went straight
from here to Mucbakinock where he
was preparing to raise a rumpus
when he saw the constable coming.
He had the rife in his hand and
thought to get out of the scrape by
pretending to be trading it to one of
the by-standers. Mr.. Tansel was not
to be fooled, however, and the man
was arrested and brought to this city
where he was arranged before
Squire Rice. We waived pleading
and in default of $500 bond was sent
to Jail to; await trial on the 23d.
Duke has been known in the police
courts for some time as suspicious
character and was sent to jail once
before for stealing horse and buggy
from the square and attempting to
run off with it. He stands a good
show for several years sentence
this time.
Mr.. Steddom was in town today
and gave a fow more particulars
about the case. n He said he and his
family had gone to visit friend in
the country and that the house was
shut up. The man stole the rifle and
would undoubtedly have taken other
things had Ihe not been interrupted.
