ago today, Fayette Davis, alias Jim
Davis, of Sumpter county, Alabama,
left his matrimonial domicile, like
wise one Ella Davis, whom he had
vowed to support and protect, and hit

vorce himself from his wife, he also
made up his mind that he would an
mex one certain sorrel mare belong
ing to Jim Fuller, his neighbor.
As Jim iourneyed over many and
devious roads he apparently felt that
he had forever lost sight of his bet
ter half, and did not reckon with the
old adage-"Hell hat no fury like a
woman scorned," and felt secure
while soiourning in this city.
Ella appeared on the scene yester-
day. Like a hound trailing a rabbit
she followed Jim, and playing detec
tive herself she traced her derelict
mate to a house in Mill near Cohea
street. Then she acquainted the pc
lice with the whereabouts of James
and poured into their ears the story
Of her blighted romance.
