The cruel treatment received by
woman residing on Seventh Street
at the hands of her husband has
occasioned wave Of indignation to
rise up against him among the
neighbors, and recurrence of his
brutal conduct will be met with a
dose OF his own medicine. The
woman has been unwell for some
time past and instead of trying to
make her comfortable, as he ought
to do, he has been maltreating her,
even going so far as to use blows.
When asked to explain his conduct
he intimated she was not sick, but
was only malingering. This we
found to be untrue. The woman
has been subject to epileptic fits,
and unfit to attend the duties of the
household. The woman is greatly
pitied by those who know what she
has been compelled to suffer. The
brute should be taught lesson.

as large numbers Is impossible. But the
interest Is growing, and the indicati tons
are that the numbers In attendance will
increase with the age of the station.
The station has had two years of work.
These two years have been largely pre-.
liminary. Little was done the first year
save to get things in shape and make q
start. The second year two months were
spent in the field, and the results were
much above the expectations. This sum-
mer the entire time Of work will be about
nine weeks, and much Is expected from
the results Of this seasons work.
To be Opened July az
The station will be opened for work
July %, and will be at the disposal OF
those who may attend for four weeks
thereafter. During this time the atten-
ton of the instructors will be given
largely to such students as choose to at
tend, the remainder Of the time being em-
ployed by them in their special sub
jects.
The public is greatly interested in the
work being carried on and a list of the
workers will be of much interest to them.
