SaIoonkeeper Denied Divorce From
Wife Charued With DRINKING.

Kansas City, Jan. 26.-"When man
Is engaged in the business of making
drunkards, it doesn't lie in his mouth
to complain If the effects Of that busi-
ness come home to him"
With the foregoing words Judge
Park, of the circuit court, refused to
grant Cornelius Daily a divorce.
Daily keeps a saloon. His wife is
in the state asylum for the insane.
He sued her for divorce, alleging that
she drank to excess. In refusing the
divorce the judge said, in part:
He married her when she was a
mere girl. 16 years old, and soon after
went into the saloon business. His
testimony was that his wife drank be-
fore he married her, and that she
loved alcohol so well that she used 1t
in her coffee. The testimony of wit
nesses for the wife tends to show that
the husband is not entitled to di.
