CHASED WIFE IN SNOW.
Mrs. Albert Rolle5 Claims She Was
Thrown Halls naked Into the
Cold

MILWAUKEE. Wis, Jan. II, 1908.
Bare footed and half-naked, Mrs AL
bert Roller, ITS Lincoln avenue, was
fleeing down the street through the snow
and over icy sidewalks Monday night,
looking for shelter from the wrath Of
her husband, who had thrown her out of
the house.
The five children of Roller had also
been forced out into the cold by the an
CRY father, it is alleged, and stood shiver-
ing in the snow. They were permitted
to return, however, but the door was
calmly locked by Roller upon his wife.
This morning Deputy Sheriff Chris
Thorsen arrested Roller and took him
to the county Jail. He will be taken be-
fore Judge Neelen in the morning. Mrs.
Roller stated to the deputy that her hus-
band is in the habit of taking a drink
from a whisky bottle during every hour
of the day and night.

Yeames, his mother and Bax edging to-
wards the door, ION this evidence l ask
you to commit Lynn Yeames for conspir-
acy."
Aye, I'll commit the whole batch, and
you Mrs. Bates, as WELL Send for my
clerk, and the papers,"
But we could not detain any one of the
batch while the commitments were being
procured and so Lynn, his mother and
Bax got clear off. And we have neither
seen nor heard anything of them since
which is the best thing that could have
happened for them and for US.
What is there to add? Nothing but
what should conclude a tale of struggle
between right and wrong. DR.. Audrey
married Gertrude, and lost no time over

when his innocence was proved, and they
looked into each others eyes dimmed
with the tear of joy, it was understood
between them that hand and heart were
joined forever
They live with Laure in the pretty cot
tage on the hill. Audrey gave up his
practice and went heart and soul into
farming, and when he found the land
could be worked to pecuniary advantage
he bought it out, divided it into portions,
and let it to the men who labor upon it
thus making them Independent. l fear
ed the scheme would not pay, but it has
to marvellous extent, thanks to Awdrey's
wise and practical counsel to his tenants.
Yet, though he has given up practice,
there's not a day in the week but some
one calls to benefit by his skill in med-
cine.
Laure is now verging on womanhoode
and good many young fellows in Coney-
ford wedge themselves into the circle Of
acquaintance with which DR.. Audrey
and his wife are surrounded for her sake.
| have my eye on one who | think may
be found worthy of her hand. Laure pre-
tends, with a blush that she does not
want to marry, and would rather stay for
ever with Gertrude and her children. One
fine day she will pretend that her heart
will break if she cannot marry. The
Awdreys have three boys, and fine, sturdy
fellows they are.
''They make me feel that | am getting
older" said Gertrude.
And so much the happier" l replied.
1t seems to me that Audrey himself is
positively younger for the lapse of time.
I never knew a man more cheerful and
bright. 1t is a treat to see him with his
boys in the shed he has fitted up as a car
penter's workshop. Whether he intends
putting them to a profession one of these
days, I don't know; but it is certain that
every one of them will be a good carpen-
ter, which is something. But what most
pleases me is to see him with his wife.
Sure no young lover, no knight of old,
could be more chivalrous; no gentleman
of to-day more generous!

If ever the phase 'fat Of the land'
meant anything, it does so in the case
of the Astor family. Land! That is
the keynote of this wealthy organiza-
ton, the solidest aggregation of self
increasing wealth in America, says the
New Broadway Magazine. The Aston
millions, invested in New York real
estate are absolutely intact and i'm
pregnabe. By the most insidious
methods of Leasing, subleasing, pur-
chasing, renting (but rarely ever inn
proving property themselves) the AS
tor heirs, ensconced in a plain, stout
little tWo-story brick building just off
Madison square, are gradually pick
ing I'D acre after acre of priceless land
on Manhattan island.
There are more than fifty heirs,
many in the fourth generation, to the
Astor millions, but upon the shoulders
of William Vincent Astor, lad OF l6,
will probably fall the management of
the bulk of this enormous estate. At
st. Paul's school and Elton, England,
he showed himself to be a good student
with a bent for mechanics. Young
Waldorf Astor is a level-headed man
of 81, who recently married Mrs. Nan
ME Langhorne Shaw, one of the three
beautiful Langhorne sisters of Vir-
ginia. He and his brother, John ia
cob, nephews Of Col. John Jacob AS
tor, are sons of William Waldorf AS
tor, the expatriated American. They
have never renowned their American
citizenship, and should they return,
may divide the management of the es-
tate in this country with William Vim
cent. John Jacob, second Of the name
living, is unmarried, and lives with
his father at historic Cliveden, one OF
the finest estates in England.

NEW RECORD IN HOGS.
Today's Arrivals in Chicago Break All
Previous Marks-Due to
Corn.

CHICAGO, H., Feb. 10.-Receipts of
hogs at the Union stock yards in Chi
cago broke all previous records today.
Before noon more than $4,000 head
had been unloaded and more We're ar
irving, the highest run previously re-
corded was February II, 1895, when
1861 We're received. The average re-
ceipts for Mondays and Wednesdays, on
which days the runs are customarily
larger, are $4,000 to 10000 head. The
high price Of corn is said to be the cause
for the marketing of the animals in such
great numbers.
The immediate effect on the Chicago
market was break of 1Oc to l5c in
prices.

Raymond Hitchcock Must Appear on Feb
ruary "a or His Bail Will Be
Forfeited.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE trial of
Raymond Hitchcock, the comedian, was
set today for February 81, despite the
objection of his counsel. An affidavit
was presented to the court stating that
the district attorneys office consented
to allow Hitchcock to go on his road
tour and that his detention would cause
great financial loss to his managers.
Justice Bowling ruled that the financial
loss to the manager was an extraordi-
nary reason to advance for a delay in
the prosecution of criminal case and
notified Hitchcock counsel that his
clients bail of $500 would be forfeited
if he were not in court February "A.

that the day has twice as many gold en hours as those of other men. He is to be pitied, whose house is in some
 valley of grief between the hills, with the longest night and shortest day.
 Home should be the center of joy equa- torial and tropical, the whole force of life and experience goes to prove
 that right or wrong doing. whether in relation to the physical or spiritual nature is sure, in the end, to meet it's appropriate reward or punishment.
 Penalties are often so long delayed, that men think they shall escape them
 but some time they are certain to follow. When the whirlwind sweeps through the forest, at it's first breath, or almost as if the fearful stiffness that precedes had cherished it, the giant tree with all its boughs falls, crashing. to the ground. But it had been preparing to fall for twenty years. Twenty years before the wa ter had begun to settle in at some crotch and from thence decay began to reach in with it's silent fingers to- ward the heart of the tree. Every year the work of death progressed, till at length it stood, all rottenness, only clasped about by the bark with sem- blance of life and the first gale felled it to the ground. Now, there are men who for twenty years, have shamed the day and wearied the night with their debaucheries, but who yet seem strong and vigorous, and exclaim,
 "You need not talk of penalties, Look at me! l have revelled in pleasure 20, years, and am as hale and hearty to-day as ever." But in reality they are full of weakness and decay. They have been preparing to fall for 20 years. and the first disease strikes them down in moment. Ascending from the physical nature of man to the mind and character, we find the game laws prevail. People sometimes say, Dishonesty is as good as honesty, for aught l see. There are such and such men who have pursued for years the most corrupt courses in their busi- ness, and yet they prosper, and are getting rich every day. Wait till you see their end. Every year how many such men are overtaken with sudden destruction. and swept forever out of sight and remembrance.

Postmaster E. c.

This practice imposes undue hardship on rural carriers in re- moving loose coins from boxes and de- lays them on the service of their routes. The postmaster, therefore, urgently requests that patrons of rural delivery provide themselves and keep on hand a supply of stamps consistent with and in advance of their needs. It is also very desirable that rural patrons place in their mail boxes small detach- able cups of wood or tin in which to place coins, when necessary, in pur- chasing supplies of stamps.
