Of marital troubles. t
A few days ago her husband, in
spite of the fact that they had been

her to Chino and had received the
money for her. She refused to accede
to the bargain and her husband ire
fully mistreated her and threatened
70 take her life.
After q few days more the wicked
man again saw where he could replen-

again took objections to the bargain

They had retired to their room. when
Mr.. Curtis was aroused from slumber
