Being unsuccessful in his attempts
to force Mrs. Brown TO secure divorce
from him, ex-senator Arthur Brown
has decided to take steps to secure
legal separation from his wife, and TO
that end he has filed an answer to the
complaint filed against him by Mrs.
Brown and cross-eomplaint In which
he asks that he be granted a decree OF
divorce on the grounds Of cruelty. In
the cross complaint many sensational
charges are made against Mrs. Brown.
among them being that she has threat
ened on several occasions TO poison her
husband ana that she has prosecuted
him In the late criminal actions which
she caused to be filed against him,
CRUELTY, INSULTS, POISON.
The acts OF cruelty complained OF by
the senator, are the constant fault
finding Of his wife and continuous in
suit for a number Of years, mingled
with threats TO injure him bodily and
physically. During the month Of Sep
TENDER, 1901, II Is alleged that Mrs.
Brown did threaten and say that she
could poison him without the least
conjunction Of conscience. and that
the only reason she lived with him was
TO get what little money he had--for
he wouldn't live long" In April. 1901.
We said that she had often felt like
poisoning him and could do il without
the least regret. but she did not want
10 be punished for such thing.
SAYS HIS WIFE STEALS.
It Is alleged that in June, 1909, Mrs
Brown went into the senator's room
and carried away stole and disposed
Of furniture and personal property con-
sisting OF a couch, wardrobe, rug. desk,
chairs and clothing Al various times
during the past three months. the SEN
ator alleges that his wife has entered
his private office, in the firm Of Brown
& Henderson, and stolen various ar
ticles OF wearing apparel and other
personal property belonging TO him.
He alleges that Mrs Brown is very
Incorporate in the government OF her
passions and often gives vent to the
most abusive language and applies the
yiest epithets to him.
CRAZY AS A LOON.
He charges that in August, 1902, she
wrote letter TO their son Max, who Is
attending school In Michigan, saying
that defendant was crazy as a loon
and charging him with being drunk
ard and having lost all his manhood,
and also the respect Of all his friends
and the community in general.
DEATH IN THE GUTTER.
on another occasion she charged him
with being "sot and predicted that
he would die in the gutter in a short
time by reason OF the aforesaid acts

injured his business standing, which
has been acquired by a practice Of his

An Interesting ThimbIe.

There's a remarkable "thimble" at
the Massachusetts, state house. Maj.
Charles G. Davis, the sergeant-at-
arms, keeps it as his rare treasure.
close hidden in the drawer of his desk.
1t was presented to him at the battle
of Kelly's Ford, We, when Maj. Davis
was ordered to charge with his squad
ron into a patch of woods where the
"Johnnies' were lying concealed in q
perfect horseshoe formation, into the
bow of which the troopers charged,
only to receive a deadly fire in front,
on both TANKS and from the rear. This
peculiar thimble was made from the
heavy breastplate of the majors belt,
and manufactured then and there. A
shot struck the plate squarely in the
center, at just about the pit of the ma
jor's stomach. Out of the saddle he
went, and for a considerable interval
lay dead to the world. On regaining
consciousness the major felt sure that
he was hard hit, but there was no
blood. A close examination revealed
a dark purple spot just behind the
buckle and severe abrasion of the
outer cuticle. but no puncture of the
abdomen, as had been feared. When
the plate was picked up there was an
indentation in it SO deep that one may
insert the tip of his little finger and
wear it as he would thimble. 1t was
good, stout brass, however.
