Of THIS FATHER
James O'Rourke in Jail for
Driving His Family Out

FIRED SHOT AT WIFE

Because he drove his wife and two
little children from their home at
Twentieth and Alabama streets at the
point of a pistol Sunday afternoon
James ORourke, horseshoer, was
taken into custody yesterday on a
charge of cruelty. The inhuman hus-
band had been drinking very heavily
and was still in an ugly mood when ar
rested by Policeman Young yesterday
This was not the first time that the
cruelty of the horseshoer had been
brought to the attention of the police.
O'Rourke on one occasion fired a shot
at his wife.
After being forced to leave their
home on Monday the wife and little
children sought refuge at the home of
Patrick O'Rourke, brother of the hus-
band and father. at 1854 Nineteenth
street. The condition of the husband
from excessive drinking was such that
Mrs. ORourke feared to return to the
family domicile yesterday and she no
titled the police.
When the police visited the shouse
they found that O'Rourke had a varied
assortment of deadly weapons with
which to inspire terror in the hearts
of his family. His room contained large
knives of murderous aspect, several
small firearms and two hatchets. The
neighbors also feared the burly horse
sheer when he was intoxicated

One Of the leading tenors In Moscow
was called upon 70 sing an opera In
which one note was much too high for
him. but he got a man i'm the orchestra
to come in Just at the right time and
supply the note. In exchange the
tenor was TO take him TO supper. The
plan answered well, the applause was
loud. but the tenor forgot all about the
supper Next time he sang the opera
he went TO the front OF the stage. put
his hand on his heart and opened his
mouth as wide as be could. His dis
