CASE OF TWO DaeMI0s

BEINGS.


Children's Guardians, was busy last
Friday afternoon arranging to place
some children left to her care in good
homes in the country, pretty blue-eyed
young woman with dark chestnut col
ored hair accompanied by child, called
upon her and said
Il am Mrs Frank Hulse, of No. AZ
Montgomery street. l am stopping with
Mrs. Monastery. Ny husband has
abandoned me and I'm going to have
him arrested. He will be in the court
in the morning. | would be so pleased
if your society would take charge of my
child, as | will be unable to support it,
Saturday morning Miss Day entered
the First Criminal Court just as one
Frank Huise was arraigned on a COM
plaint lodged against him by Overseer
of the Poor Edward Hewitt for abandon
ment. Assistant Overseer of the Poor
George Murray was explaining to the
Court that Mrs Hulse was unable to
appear, as she was laid up in St Francis
Hospital with a broken knee-cap and
had been confined to that institution for
some time.
Strange remarked Miss Day. "Why
Mrs. Hulse was at my office yesterday.
There was nothing the matter with her
then. She told me that her husband
would be in court this morning, and from
the description she gave me of him he
appears to be here"
Mr.. Murray insisted that Mrs. Hulse
was in the hospital. He said he had
just a few moments before 'phoned the
Sisters in charge and made inquiry.
Acting Justice of the Peace Edward A.
Ransoms Jr., ordered Hulse to pay his
wife Sc week for support Hulse
couldn't produce a bondsman and was
sent to a cell.
Miss Day was not satisfied. Many
women whose husbands have deserted
them have told her their marital woes.
She knows intuitively whether or not a
woman who has been deserted is telling
the truth. The Mrs. Hulse that ap-
pealed to her was blue-eyed and the
truthful blue eyes of the woman had
made an impression on her. She be-
lieyed the blue-eyed Mrs. Hulse was tell
ing her the truth when she said she in
tended to have her husband arrested.
The prisoner said he had heard that
his wife had been in hospital for some
time as the result of fall He added
that he knew of no other Mrs Frank
Hulse whose husband had apparently
fallen into his bad habit.
Saturday night Hulse was visited in
his eel hy Mrs. Day and Foormaster
Hewitt.
Have you two wives?' he was asked.
No, sireew he replied. "0ne gets a
fellow into enough trouble
Hulse described his wife's appearance.
The description tailed exactly with the
Mrs. Hulse who had called upon Miss
Day, except that. according to the inn
prisoned husband, his wife's eyes were
brown. Hulse also volunteered the in
formation that he had three children.
The woman who called on Miss Day
spoke only of one. Miss Day remember.
ed the blue eyes.
Mistake here,' she said
Then Miss Day went to the boarding
house Of Mrs. Monastery, at No. II
Montgomery street, and mad talk with
Mrs. Monastery. Mrs. Monastery said:
Mrs. Hulse was stopping with me.
She had some trouble with her husband
believe, but he came here this after
noon and they went away together, TAX
ing the child with them. / guess it's
all right
Miss Day thought SO, too. and was
| glad that Mrs. Blue Eyess difficulties
had been happily adjusted She was
sorry that afflicted little Mrs. Brown
Eyes in the hospital and her husband
couldn't arrive at some understanding
and live happily ever afterward for the
sake of the three little Hulses.
Tt is one Of the most remarkable
cases / ever came across, Miss Day
said yesterday. The Mesdames HuIse
evidently look very much alike except
for the color Of their eyes, and thell
husbands apparently resemble each 9th
er. judging from the description given te
me Of the man | didn't see. The men
have the same names, and their wives
had the same complaint to make against
