ATTORNEYS FOR THE DEFEND
ANT HAVE ASKED FOR A NEW
TRIAL JURY DEllRERATED
THE ENTIRE NIGHT,

The State ex rel Ida G. Wadsworth
against her husband, John w. Wads-
worth for $500 went to the jury last
evening about o'clock and a verdict
for the plaintiff was not reached until
this morning. little before 10 o'clock.
Counsel for the defendant announced
this morning that motion for a new
trial would be filed. in which one of
the reasons set forth will be that
there was insufficient evidence intro
duced for the jury to reach the YER
dict it did.
First Of Its Kind.
The case was the first of its kind
ever tried in the Wayne circuit court.
The case was started week ago last
Monday, but owing to the prostration
OF Judge Fox on the following Tues
day. the case was continued until yes
tertlay morning. Evidence was pre-
scented by Mrs. Wadsworth to show
that the defendant married her to
avoid paternity proceedings. She
stated that he failed to make reason
able provision for her. However
these assertions were contradicted by
the defendants witnesses.
The amount which the plaintiff is
to receive has not been determined
Judge Fox will fix the amount of
damages which the plaintiff is to re
ceive, unless new trial is granted.

sciousness. Her Willie run overt She
could not grasp the full Significance
Of it One thing she would do-go to
him at once. So she hastily attired
herself and at length reached hel

news. would b able to tell her all
about it.
How is he. and where have they
taken him?'
Her brother stared at her stupidity.

he IS BUSY AGAIN

The bicycle thief appears to be busy
again after period Of brief rest, and
several instances have been reported
to the police recently where bicycles
have been stolen. However in some
cases they are not stolen when
thought to be. One OF the most an
moving things with which the police
have to deal. 1t Is said. is In looking
up lost bicycles. It frequently oc-
ours that an absent minded owner
simply forgets where he left his
wheel and as the quickest way out Of
the difficulty hastily telephones to the
police and notifies them that his BIZ
cycle has been stolen. It is later
found just where the owner had left
It, and 20, forgot left 1t there" is

blue coats to make wry face and
mutter something indistinct under
their breath.
