fections case is being enacted in the
district court at this place. Mrs. Mary
Flinders is suing her husband, Samuel

OF cruel and inhuman treatment, and

noon.
She told of the alleged cruel treat
ment on the part of her husband. She
was followed by Dr. Edward Horni-
brook, who has been her physician
since 1899. He told of the state of her
health at that time and of how she had
grown nervous He said that a woman

Davenport, June 14.-At Upton, Ia,
Mrs. Laura Miller, now Of Independ-
epce, was arrested under circumstan-
ces that caused an even greater SEN
ago accompanied her arrest and trial
on the charge of throwing lye in the
face of Mrs. Gail Campbell, of Upton.
Mrs. Campbell is an estinnable young
lady who for years has been in charge
of the office of DIR. X. S. Bandy. of Tip
ton. A theory of the prosecution
against Mrs. Miller was that she had
become infatuated with the physician
and insanely Jealous of his office at
tendant. and hence DESTROYS OF de-
stroying her beauty.
These suggestions are revived by
Mrs. Miller's return to Upton Monday
night from Independence, where she
moved last summer. Heavily yelled
and carrying a satchel, she alighted
from an evening train and was seen
and recognized by several people dur
ing the night. Considering her con-
duct suspicious officers started on a
search for her and found her at 3 a..
m. hiding in cellarway at the Bandy
home.
She had broken into the refrigerator
and removed lard, jam and other food
which she had with her when found.
In her valise she had a bottle of
strychnine, another Of wood alcohol,
and lot of matches.
In the talk of the affair, and every
one in Upton is talking of it, the gem
eral opinion is expressed that inter-
ruption by the officers prevented the
possible poisoning of the Bandy fam
lily.
Mrs. Miller will be given a hearing
before the board of insanity commits
sioners, as it is believed that she is
insane.
Justice H. r. Porter also issued a
warrant charging her with burglary, to
be prosecuted if she is not found to be
insane.
