Sauberlich Returns Home.
aciaI Correspondence OF The Star.

EVANSVILLE, December 25 1903.
About 8 o'clock last evening Detective
Trumbo OF Washington returned to Hy-
attsville with Mr.. Charles F. SauberItch
whose absence from home since De-
cember i last has caused his family and
friends great deal of anxiety Friday
Mrs. Sauberlich received a letter from her
husband indicating that he was in a Baltf-
more hospital and the letter was at once
turned over to Detective Trunbo. who Went
to Baltimore Saturday, and yesterday To-
Gated the missing man. The detective and
Mr.. Sauberlich were met at the electric
railway station here by Attorney Robert
w. Wells, and the trio went to the Sauber-
Itch home, outside of B1adensburg The
scene that greeted the return of the missing
husband and father was affecting. and
there is a joyous Christmas at-the Sauber-
Itch domicie today.
Mr.. Sauberlich did not have anything to
say concerning his mysterious disappear
ance, except to reiterate the statement
made in his letter to his wife. that a col
ored man stepped from stable door in an
alley Tuesday morning, December II, and
struck him d blow the head. He knew
nothing until he found himself wandering
about the streets of Baltimore without a
cent and in very weak condition. He
was cared for by the Salvation Army. and
later taken to a hospital.
Attorney Wells stated that he is about
convinced that Mr.. Sauberlich's story about
being knocked senseless is true, and init
mated that the party or parties responsible
for Mr.. Sauberlichs disappearance will be-
prosecuted.

to resume its normal condition.
The same busy atmosphere prevails in
the express offices. The employees worked
until daybreak this morning loading their
wagons and getting ready for the early de-
livery which began about o'clock. There
were many complaints from persons who
knew there was a package in the express
office for them, or who knew the package
was being wilfully, delayed etc, and So

their Christmas good temper. and only IN
rare cases did the complainant fail TO get
'satisfa ction''-that is. they either got the
package, or they received a nice. soft bit Of
conversation that made them fell better.

William Carter's Second Exploit az
Wife Beaten

When William Carter, colored, stepped
before the clerk IN the United tSjates branch
of the Police Court this morning TO be ar
raigned on a charge of assaulting his wife.
Judge Kimball looked at him intently.
when did send you down the last time
for assaultins your. wife?'' he inquired.
You gave me six months some time ago.
was the reply.
"Of course. II is some time ago. because
1t took you six months to get out. ! have
sent you down several times" commented
his honor.
When Mrs. Hattie Carter took the stand
she exhibited eyes swollen, nearly closed and
battered face. Those marks she ex-
planned were the result OF Carter's efforts
on saturday to make an impression on her.
After the trouble with his wife Carter
started on run from the alley on D
street between 9th and 10th streets north
west, where the trouble occurred Crossing
Officer Croft saw him running and suspect
ing trouble he stopped him. Carter fought
ike a tiger against the arrest.
The sentence of former occasions was re.
peated again today. and for disorderly con.
duct while under arrest he was fined $40.
with thirty days in jail as the equivalent.

seen around the wagon at the time. were
suspected of the larceny. Precinct Detec-

carriers, who dislike extra work (either at
Christmas or any other time) opposed the
idea, and brought the question before the
first assistant postmaster general. They
said they did not think the Sabbath day
should be desecrated by extra mail deliv-
cries, and Mr.. Hitchcock agreed with them
to a certain extent. for he issued an order

tute carriers to report for duty Major Bell
has not quite figured out why it would be

work and not a deSecratiOn to let the SUBJ

make further than that because of the order

packages until tomorrow. while If his Or

have had their Christmas packages today.
The carriers started out this morning with
the delivery of letter mail AS fast as this
