HAMPTON IMPROVEMENT MOVE.
There is Concerted Action Toward
Making Of a "city Beautiful"

Special to -RepuDliCan.
Hampton. Oct. 23-Many years have
passed since there was such a con-
certed action among the residents of
Hampton, looking to the making of a
city beautiful here.
First, was the talk among residents
of East Fifth street. to curb and park
the thoroughfore and have a driveway
in the middle, in some way perhaps
with Tilford. No active steps have
yet been taken in the matter. but it is
likely to be taken up later.
Soon after, came the paving propo-
sition, and this met with almost in
slant favor. Ten blocks Of brick paw
ing will be completed within a few
days. The last public step toward
substantial inprovemen which all
may enjoy, is the creation Of q fund
known as the city park improvement
fund. The surface of the park has
been raised by dumping much of the
dirt there from the streets that are
paved, and now it is proposed among
other improvements, to provide cement
walks, a fountain, and other things to
add to the attractiveness of this place.
A number of the young people of
the city organized some weeks ago as
the yankee Doodle Club" and started
the fund by holding ball, the pro-
ceeds of which amounted to about
500. Wednesday evening, a supper
was served at the Congregational
church under the auspices of the Gem

ENGLE ACQUITTED
Justice Scores Newton Mans Wife for
Bringing Acton-sensationaI Trial
Comes to End.

Newton, Oct. 23.--By decision of
Justice ]. w. Allfree, DIR. Perry Engle
accused Of adultery by his wife, was
declared entirely innocent and Mrs.
Engles prosecution was stigmatized
as malicious. With DR.. Engle's exon
GRAFTON came also the exoneration OF
with him, Miss Mary McMannus. Miss
McMannus was not placed on trial. but
it was agreed after the submission of
evidence that the two defendants
should be adjudged upon the testimony
in the DR.. Engle trial.
Immediately following the decision
of Justice Allfree it was announced
by J. c. Hawkins, attorney for the
defendants that suits would be brought
at once against Mrs. Engle. He made
no further statement, but it is pre-
sumed that one will be brought by
DR.. Engle for divorce and another by
Miss McMannus for damages for de-
famation of character and malicious
prosecution.
In giving his decision, Justice Allfree
declared that while the discovery OF
Dr. Engle and Miss McMannus to-
gether in the haymow of the Engle
barn was a suspicious circumstance,
it had been fully explained by the
evidence presented and that the cir
cumstances did not preclude DR.. En-
giles innocence. He declared that DR..
Engles past record had been above
reproach and that there was but one
course for him to pursue--to declare
DR.. Engle innocent of the charges
brought OF Mrs. Engle he said he
found it difficult to place her in the
light of malicious prosecutor. be-
cause of his long acquaintance with
her and her family. He declared that
he believed that she had allowed her
jealous suspicious nature to overcome
her better judgment and that her ac-
tions had been biased thru malice.
BY the finding of the court, the costs
of the prosecution will be placed upon
Mrs. Engle. They will be very heavy,
amounting to hundreds Of dollars. The
trial began a week ago last Monday
and the arguments Of attorneys were
closed only yesterday. Fifty-six wit
nesses were examined, and the type
written transcript of the evidence COW
ers 365 pages.
