PAYS $3.50 RATHER THAN
FACE FORMER WIFE ALONE

Inianapolis.- c. Bryne was
granted a divorce with an allowance
of $3.50 by Judge Lawson NJ. Harvey
in superior court, room 4. yesterday
The allowance of $3.50 was upon one
OF three propositions stated by Mrs
Byrne, according to the allegations
OF the complaint filed in answer by
her husband, II. Bryne. One of the
proposals made by Mrs. Bryne was
that she be allowed to go into a room
with her husband for five minutes
with all doors and windows locked.
Mrs. Byrne is about six feet tall-and
muscular. Her propositions were:
/. Plaintiff (W. H. Byrne) to pay
her the sum of $500.
2. That plaintiff give her $3.50 and
the family piano.
3. That plaintiff agree to stay in
the room with her alone for five min
utos. with doors and windows locked.
Byrne IS a salesman and his former
wife runs boarding house at 1922
Madison avenue. He steered clear Of
proposition No. and they compro-
missed on Mrs. Bryne's second prop
osition. The piano was thrown OFF,
and the only consideration named,
aside from the decree, is the allow
ance Of $3.50. Byrne in his complaint
for divorce stated that at one time
Mrs Byrne had sailed a hatchet at her
stepson.-Indianapolis Star.
