Newtown Sept 10.-That Mrs. Julia woichowslzy ,forsook her husband and three children because of the startling revelation made by his aged mother that her husband. Frank Wotchows,ky. a teamster, was her own uncle, was the startling disclosure in the court of Justice P. H. Mccarthy when Mrs week for abandoning her husband. and taking up with another man.
 Woichowsky, when past 40, claimed as his bride a girl of 16. Both lived in Bridgeport. The marriage took place 16 years ago. Three children were born to thems and they lived in ap- parent happiness until something more than a year ago. Then returning home one night the teamster discovered his wife and children gone. A, boarder, a bosom friend of the(fan1i1y, was gone as we'll. The grieving husband came to this town to work for his brother Mamet Woichowsky. A few days later his II years old son, bedraggIed. walked into the, brothers home, with the news N that his mother was in Bridgeport living with the boaEder. The husbands search availed nothing, until four months ago the two were discovered living in Waterbury. He succeeded in getting the children to Bridgeport and then tEnportuned the woman to return to him and the chil- dren. She refused, but this fart had given him no reason for her abandon ing her home and family.
 On Saturday last he went to New town with the children. to spend the week end and holiday, and he learned that his wife, too, was in the town, visiting two miles away. The chill dren, who heard the proximity of the mother, stole across the fields to see her, while he hastened to the town off, (ia s7e a fa6 as no evidence could be produced in court, she was exonerated5 of the >a1- leged offense Then, for the first time, she told in the court room of the dis covery that she said had precipita ted her leaving Frank
 ' Pointing to a shrivelled old woman, her mother. she said that wt1fn the woman came from Russian Poland to live with her, just before her break with Frank, her mother recognized in Woichowsky the soldier brother of her dead husband.
 Frank Woichowsky admits x that there is a tang1e in the family tree of the WoichowSkys but did not admit that the blood of his wife is, kindred blood to his own, though at the time of his marriage to Julia he was un- aware of even family connection. Hel says his father was married twice He was of the progeny of the first wife. His father in later life married a ser want of the household who had prevt- ous to her marriage a natural born sons>by an unknown father. By the law of the landt or by custom this youth took the nbnne of woichowsl<y. He was the father of Julia Woichow- sky, but so far as Frank nows he did not have the same strain of blood Frank did not like his stepmothera so went away as a soldier and never saw his home or kindred in the old land again.
 He offered to take back Julia as wife. but to every appeal she turned a deaf ear. even to the pleadings of her three children. that she had not seen for months.
