to a baby, and now the plaintiff Is a
grandmother, although only 36 years of
age.
Until four years ago the household
! affairs of the White family progressed
I smoothly, but in 1901 trouble began and
the allegation of cruelty covered Incl
dents happening nearly every month
since that time.
Hand-to-Hand Conflicts
Witnesses testified yesterday that
| White and his wife had engaged In
| hand-to-hand conflicts on more than
one occasion. At one particular time,
according to the testimony, Mrs. White
ordered a gallon of milk and several
quarts of cream, but by accident broke
the vessels in which the fluid was con"
tanned.
She later ordered the same amount,
but before it was delivered she quar-
relied with her husband because he al
legged she had taken the extra money
for liquor instead of milk, and when
the second order of milk was delivered
refused to receive 1T.
White insisted that she keep the milk,
but this the wife refused to do. Ac-
cording to the testimony of neighbors.
Mrs. White carried the bottles of milk
to the edge of the sidewalk so the milk
man could carry them away and then
White carried them back into the
house. The performance was repeated
several times. and at last the milkman'
having received his money and having
become disgusted with the proceedings,
drove away and left the couple to fight
out the difficulty.
At another time, according to the evil
dence brought out yesterday White
seized his wife by the wrist in order to
force her to let go of some money she
held. 1t was alleged that he twisted
her arm until she threw herself against
the wall of the little cottage. The wall
was a party affair. and the pantry of
the next cottage was built against 1t,
so that when Mrs. White bumped
against the wall the dishes in the next
house ratified 30 the floor and the occu-
pants, thinking an earthquake was
uuon them, ran screaming in fear from
the building.
Missed His Calling
Several other incidents of similar
character were mentioned and White
subjected all witnesses to scathing
ross-eXaminat tions, showing a wonder
ful knowledge of the law.
Finally he took up his own Defense
charging that his wife drank to excess
and spent much of her time in the COM
pany of other men. He alleged that on
several occasions she was so intoXi-
Gated that had it not been for the
friendly aid of picket fences on the
way home she would have been unable
to reach her domicile.
Judge Bordwell ruled that the charges
of cruelty had not been sustained and
denied the decree.

The Police Jury has proclaimed
an election to be held on July 10Th
in the Cypress Island Drainage
District, to take the sense of the
taxpayers of that section. whether
they will vote the tax or not. We
are of opinion that the people Of
that section will be unanimous in
favor of the tax, because when that
section will be thoroughly drained
it will become one of the best por-
tion of the parish, and will pro-
duce abundant crops. The lands
of that section are the very best,
but they are lands that must be
thoroughly drained; when this is
established as it should be, there
will no section in this State supe-
rior to Cypress Island.
