In Ohio a divorce was recently granted because "the defendant pulled the plaintiff out of bed by the whiskers." In Illinois a decree was obtained by a long-suffering husband because "during the past year the defendant struck this plaintiff repeatedly with pokers, flat-irons and other hard substances." A New Jersey wife got a divorce because "the defendant, the husband, sleeps with a razor under his pillow to frighten this plaintiff." A Virginia wife was set free because "the defendant does not come home until 10 r.m., and then keeps this plaintiff awake talking." A Tennessee court liberated a wife because "the defendant does not wash himself, thereby causing the plaintiff great mental anguish." A Connecticut man got a divorce because... A New Jersey wife got a divorce because "the defendant, the husband, sleeps with a razor under his pillow to frighten this plaintiff." A Virginia wife was set free because "the defendant does not come home until 10 r.m., and then keeps this plaintiff awake talking." A Tennessee court liberated a wife because "the defendant does not wash himself, thereby causing the plaintiff great mental anguish." A Connecticut man got a divorce because "the defendant would not get up in the morning, nor call the plaintiff, nor do anything she was told." A Michigan wife was released because the husband did not provide the necessities of life, saying "he would not work his toe-nails off for any woman." A New York wife was granted a divorce because her husband threw the baby at her when she hit him with a coal bucket for spitting on the stove. A Missouri divorce was once granted because "the defendant goes gadding about, leaving this plaintiff supperless, or if he gets any he has to cook it himself." In Pennsylvania a hen-pecked husband was relieved from the yoke of matrimony because "the defendant struck this plaintiff a violent blow with her buffle." A Wisconsin man got a divorce because his wife kept a servant girl who spit on the frying-pan to see if it was hot enough to fry. In California a defendant husband was adjudged guilty of cruelty because he did not provide water at his house, neither would be repair the house to make it comfortable. A decree was granted in Massachusetts because "the defendant keeps this plaintiff awake most of the night quarrelling." An Indiana applicant testified that "my wife would not walk with me on Sundays and pulled a tuff of hair out of my head." A Minnesota decree was given to the wife because "the defendant never outs his toenails, and, being restless in his sleep, scratches the plaintiff severely." An Indiana divorce was some years ago granted because "the defendant pulled all the covering off of this plaintiff's bed and she likewise ran a knitting nec. 10 four inches into his arm." In Kentucky a divorce was granted because "the defendant came into the bedroom the morning after the marriage and beat this plaintiff on the head with her shoe heel." A Kansas wife was released from her husband because, as she stated in her petition, "the defendant pined the nose of this plaintiff, causing it to become very red, thereby causing the plaintiff great pain and anguish of mind." A New York man, in petitioning for divorce, pleaded that "the defendant would not saw on plaintiff's buttons, neither would she allow him to go to fires at night," a species of oppression decided by the court to be cruel and inhuman, and therefore entitleting the plaintiff to a decree. HOW EARLY COLONISTS PROCURED WIVES. Colonist day, commemorating the 260th anniversary of the landing of Leonard Calvert of the Maryland colonists, was celebrated at Baltimore on March 26th by the Society of Colonial Wars. The anniversary fell upon Sunday, March 25th. Thomas Marsh Smith was the orator of the evening. Mr. Smith read a copy of a letter, dated London, August 12, 1621, in regard to the exportation of wives to the Virginia colonists. The letter was in part as follows: "We send you in the ship one widow and clean maids for wives for some of the noo bonds and fall accrued interests shall have been paid and discharged thirty days shall have expired attentive to said district shall file in the prior Court of the county wherein there is said district or a portion thereof are cited, a petition setting forth the fact that elected district have abandoned further operations by the district required by this Act, and that all theerty of said district has been disposed and all its indebtedness and obligation any there may have been, including bonds and all accrued interest therein been paid and discharged, and praying a decree be made and entered by said disorganizing said district.

Said decree of disorganization be filed in the office of the County and recorded in the office of the County corder of each of the counties whereof the lands of said irrigation district situated.

Colonist day, commemorating the 260th anniversary of the landing of Leonard Calvert of the Maryland colonists, was celebrated at Baltimore on March 26th by the Society of Colonial Wars. The anniversary fell upon Sunday, March 25th. Thomas Marsh Smith was the orator of the evening. Mr. Smith read a copy of a letter, dated London, August 12, 1621, in regard to the exportation of wives to the Virginia colonists. The letter was in part as follows: "We send you in the ship one widow and eleven maids for wives for some of the people of Virginia. There hath been especial care had in the choice of them, for there hath not one of them been received but upon good recommendation. In case they cannot be presently married, we desire that they may be put with several householders that have wives till they can be provided with husbands. There are nearly fifty more that are shortly to come, and are sent by our Honorable Lord and Treasurer, the Earl of Southampton, and certain worthy gentlemen, who, taking into consideration that the plantation can never flourish till families be planted, aid the respect of wives and children for their people on the soil, therefore have given fair beginning, and reimbursing of whose charges it is ordered that every man that marries one of them give 120 pounds of beat leaf tobacco." CLEVELAND, April 15.—Seymour Newlan, a negro with a bad reputation, committed a criminal assault last night upon an aged woman named Mrs. Knoules, living in Rushsylvania, Logan county, O. He was captured this morning, when the Sheriff arrived from Bellefountaine to take charge of the prisoner, a mob which had collected, refused to give him up. The Sheriff summoned a posse, but still the mob would not yield. A call was then made on the militia and a company left Bellefountaine this evening for the scene of the trouble. The infuriated citizens warned the Sheriff they were determined and blood would flow before the prisoner would be surrendered and an attempt to rescue would be useless as dynamite bombs were under the jail and the prisoner would be blown to atoms. The militia arrived, but, after a parley, the Sheriff decided to do nothing and the troops were returned. Soon after the mob made a raid on the jail and the building was overturned. A noose was put about the negro's neck and he was dragged to a tree about a hundred yards distant. A dozen willing hands grappled the rope and the negro was swung into the air. As his body rose above the mob, the air was rent with the shouts of the men and women who had assembled to witness the lynching. As soon as the work was finished the mob dispersed and quiet was restored. Frank Daniels, of "Little Puck" fame, has been defeated by Comedian Clarke in a suit at Denver to recover damages for summary dismissal from the troupe, and the plaintiff was awarded $100. According to the deposition, Daniels discovered Clarke in a berth belonging to a female member of the troupe and discharged both Clarke and the woman. The question arose by what right Daniels looked in the berth, and jealousy is hinted at. The Judge claimed the contract had not been broken. Sec. 3.—The Board of Directors of said district shall sell and dispose of all property of said district as soon after such vote to abandon further operations as it can be done without sacrificing any of said property; but no property shall be sold without notice to the creditors of such district by advertisement in such newspapers as will best bring the proposed sale to the notice of the creditors, such newspapers to be designated by the Board of Directors, and such notice to be given personally or by mail when possible. Such notice shall describe the property offered for sale, and fix a time and place where offers or bids for such property will be received, and such notice shall be so given not less than four weeks prior to the time so fixed for receiving such offers or bids. No lands bought in by the district for delinquent assessments shall be sold until thirty days after such vote to abandon further operations. The title to any of the property of said district sold by said Board shall not vest in the purchaser thereof until notice of such sale shall have been given by said board by publication thereof for four successive weeks in a newpaper published in each of the counties in which any of the lands of said district are situated; or if there is any such county in which no newspaper is published, then by posting such notice in three or more conspicuous places in such county and within such district. Said notice shall contain a description of the property sold, the price offered, the terms of sale, and fix a time and place within said district for hearing any objections which may be made to such sale by any one interested in said district. Any such objection may be filed in writing with such board or the Secretary thereof at any time after publication of said notice and prior to the day set for such hearing. If no such objections are filed, or if no increased offer for said property be made as hereinafter provided, the board shall confirm said sale and execute a conveyance of the property sold to the purchaser thereof. Such conveyance shall not be executed until the purchase price shall have been paid in full in cash, and sales of personal property shall be for cash only, but sales of real property may be for part cash and part deferred payments bearing interest at the legal rate, and in case of part deferred payments, said Board of Directors may, on receipt of the cash payment, execute an agreement for a conveyance of said property whenever the purchase price thereof have been paid in full according to the terms of sale. If any objections be filed to such sale as hereinbefore provided, said board may vacate and refuse to confirm said sale; and if objections thereto be made by a majority of the taxpayers of said district whose names appear on the last preceding assessment roll thereof, said board must vacate and refuse to confirm said sale. If any person shall at or prior to said hearing make or file with the said board or the secretary thereof a written offer to pay for said property, at least ten per cent more than the price named in said notice of sale, accompanied by a certified check for ten per cent of the price so offered, then said board shall confirm said sale to such increased bidder, and if more than one such increased bid be received, then to the person offering the highest amount. The sale of any of the real property of said district by said Board of Directors, as hereinbefore provided, shall not affect or impair the lien of any outstanding bonds of said district upon such real property. Such sale shall only be of the interest of said district in judgment of the Superior Court actions. Said decree of disorganization will be filed in office of the County and recorded in the office of the County corder of each of the counties whereof it is situated.

The management claims that long time it has been hard work to pence, owing to the importation of Chinese sugar into the province; now enough Chinese sugar in the supply—the whole province; and its sold cheaper than the British C sugar Refinery can sell its production of this is plain. On account kong being a free port, bone charm machinery are produced much cheap here; but the main saving is in wages Chinese coolie works for twelve hours for 15 cents; while the 100 British Columbia Sugar Refinery paid 20 cents per hour.

LATE NEWS OF INTEREST Santa Cruz was visited by a disastrous fire Saturday. The loss is $300,000, only partly covered by insurance. Felix Ward, well known here, was found guilty in the Superior Court last Thursday of cattle stealing. He will be sentenced the 26th inst. The Industrial Army which passed through Anaheim some days ago became stranded at Colton, and the leaders were arrested and Company E of San Bernardino ordered out to assist the officers in maintaining the peace. Madeline Pollard won her suit against Col. Breckinridge, and has been awarded damages in the amount of $15,000. A convention of women at Washington has petitioned Congress to expell Breckinridge. George Hayford has been compelled to pay his wife, whom he is suing in San Francisco for a divorce, the sum of $190 counsel fees, and $25 a month alimony pending the trial and determination of the suit. F. M. Garrett, who was sent up from Los Angeles four years ago to serve a sentence of ten years for an alleged felonious assault upon his adopted daughter, has been recommended by the Board of Prison Commissioners for pardon, as evidence has come to light tending to show that he is innocent of the crime. A German paper published in Valparaiso announces the death of Peter Mannzen, who will be remembered as the captain of the Itata, which vessel almost involved this country in war with Chile. Mannzen committed suicide by shooting himself while at the house of a friend in Punta Arenas. He leaves a widow and six children in Valparaiso. A great sensation was created at Platte City near St. Jo, Missouri, by the action of the Grand Jury, which brought in indictments against forty of the leading ladies and gentlemen of that place for indulging in a game of euchre. One of the leading churches is likely to be disrupted, as its pastor is one of the instigators of the prosecution, and one of his flock is a member of the Grand Jury. At Quincy, Ill., B. F. Miller had his throat cut in William Deerker's saloon for singing "After the Ball." Dierkes had not noticed any outstanding indebtedness of said district, or from the sale of the property thereof, payment of the legal and necessary expenses, and accrued debt on the legally incurred and bona fide property, subject to the lien thereon of undated indebtedness of said district. 4. The Board of Directors of said district shall apply all monies of said district hand at the time of such vote to non further operations, or thereafter and from the sale of the property thereof, payment of the legal and necessary expenses, and accrued debt on the legally incurred and bona fide property, subject to the lien thereon of undated indebtedness of said district, or from the sale of the property thereof, payment of any outstanding indebtedness of said district then due, and any monies after remaining shall be immediately added to the redemption of the outstanding indebtedness of said district, or from the manner provided in section four of said Wright law. 5. The obligations of irrigation discharging which have voted to abandon further operations shall be governed by the same laws as apply to those of all other irrigation acts, and to the same extent as though note to abandon further operations had been taken, and shall be paid and discharged in the same manner and under the laws as the obligations of other irrigation districts which have not voted to abandon further operations are paid and discharged, and all laws governing the affairs irrigation districts have voted to abandon further operation to the same extent as though said vote ever been taken, except where it is twice expressly provided in this Act. 6. Whenever all the property of irrigation district shall have been discharged, and all the indebtedness and obliquity thereof, if any there be, including lands and all acquired interests thereon, have been paid and discharged, and days shall have expired after such an abandon further operations, the District of said district shall file in the Supreme court of the county wherein the lands and district or a portion thereof are situated in a position setting forth the facts thatectors of said district have voted to abandon further operations by this Act, and that all the proposed said district has been disposed of, all its indebtedness and obligations, if there may have been, including the land and all accrued interest thereon, have paid and discharged, and praying that once be made and entered by said Courtanning said district. On the entry of archeologists board and all the officers were bound to the rail of the vessel. The thongs that held them were so tight that in many instances when the flesh began to swell they cut deep into the arms and legs of prisoners. No attention was paid to the appeals of the miserable natives. They were entirely unprotected from the weather, and exposed as they were to the tropical heat, their wounds festored and then they brad maggots. Appeals of the miserable wretches for water to quench their thirst fell on deaf ears or else were responded to with a brutal refusal. The full details of the treatment of these captives are horrible. When the prisoners were half dead they were simply shot down like wild beasts without compunction. A new and rich gold mine, reported on the Santa Maria, in Western Arizona, is causing a stampede of miners. The locaters are C. S. Black, J. Hohmer and B. Breckman. Assays run from $300 to the thousands. The vein is well defined in many places. The offer of $20,000 for a third interest was refused. Four thousand feet of ledge has been prospected, and located. The claim is supposed to be "the Nigger Ben mine," that men have spent thousands of dollars to find and years of labor. The discovery was purely accidental. Years ago thousands of dollars' worth of placer dust was found near the location. A party of archaeologists have returned from the northeast corner of North Dakota telling a thrilling story of the abandoned city of West Lynne. The city is desolate and going to decay, no traffic goes on in its streets or business in its stores; no homes are in its dwellings. The streets are graded, have sidewalks and trees and shrubbery flourish in yards surrounding the residences, but all is silence and loneliness. The town is opposite Emerson, just across the Manitoba line from St. Vincent. There, on two sides of the Red river and within an area of four square miles, are four towns—Emerson, West Lynne, Winston and Pembina. West Lynne is on the west bank of the river. The history of the place is one of the romances of town building in the booming period. A miser named Camp died at Allerton, Pa., and his relatives having captured all the greenbacks and negotiable notes they could lay their hands on, offered all his personal effects at auction. Among these was an old iron safe that opened with a key. Reing of a style that was utterly obsolete, it was knocked down for $3 to a neighboring THE MONTEREY. this great coast defense vessel is now in San Diego bay where she will re-during the Spanish Fiesta. Daily reports will be held on board the vessel to who wish to inspect this great float-tanked ship. The Southern California Railway has made a petition to file in the Superior Court of the county wherein said petition is filed, balances of monies of said district resting in his hands, and each assessment in said district shall be entitled to receive proportion thereof as he shall contribute to the total amount of assets collected by said district. 7—Upon the filing of said petition the Clerk of the Superior Court, the thereof must make an order directing any person interested in said irrigation act may, at a time and place specified, less than eight nor more than twelve days from the time of making such order, and show cause, if any there be, why reason of said Court should not be made organizing said irrigation district. A decision has been rendered which will be of the greatest importance in the enforcement of the Chinese Exclusion Act. A Chinese merchant, in order to enter the United States or return here after he has once left, must be designated by name in the firm. Formerly under the word "Co," any number of Celestials might enter the country, claiming to be members of the firm so designated? This they can no longer do, but their names must appear in the firm name. The result of the court-martial in the case of Commander Heyerman, commanding the Kearnarge, was that he was guilty of negligence in suffering the vessel to run upon the reef and inefficiency in the performance of his duty. He is sentenced to be suspended from duty for two years on waiting orders, but to retain his present number in the list of commanders for long and faithful service. All the members of the court recommended clemency in reviewing the authority. Judge Morrow has handed down a decision in the United States district court holding that so far as Chinese ex-convicts are concerned the Geary act has not been supervised by the McCreary act. In the deportation proceedings against Geary Heong, his attorneys contended that he was entitled to a full six months to register, but the judge held that inasmuch as Chew Heong, an ex-convict, had failed to register under the Geary act, he was not privileged to register under the McCreary act. Riverside is not without episodes of interest in the liquor business, notwithstanding the fact that the county is a prohibition one. The latest excitement occurred last week when a deputy United States marshal swapped down on the Park hotel and seized the beer and liquor in attack because the clerk in charge of the house could not show a federal license when demanded to do so by the officer. The proprietor of the hotel was in Los Angeles and the guest of the house bad to go dry until he returned, and the matter was fixed up with the marshal by the proprietor showing a license, giving him authority to sell liquor. The fruit canners are rejoicing over an unproceded demand for California canned fruits from the east. At present from 2,000 to 5,000 cases are being shipped daily, and canners expect to dispose of their entire stock of last season's goods. The cold soon in war with Chile. Mannen committed suicide by shooting himself while at the house of a friend in Punta Arenas. He leaves a widow and six children in Valparaiso. A great sensation was created at Blatte City near St. Jo, Missouri, by the action of the Grand Jury, which brought in indictments against about forty of the leading ladies and gentlemen of that place for indulging in a game of euchre. One of the leading churches is likely to be disrupted, as its pastor is one of the instigators of the prosecution, and one of his flock is a member of the Grand Jury. At Quincy, Ill., B. F. Miller had his throat cut in William Dierkes' saloon for singing "After the Ball." Dierkes had notified him to quit singing, and when Dierkes attempted to eject him from the place Miller drew a knife. Dierkes also took a knife and a bloody fight ensued. Miller fell, with his throat ripped open, besides receiving other wounds. Dierkes disappeared after Miller fell. The Golden Gate flour-mills, the oldest in San Francisco, will be closed. This is the result of the absorption of the Union mills of Stockton by the Sperry Company, of which Horace Davis, the owner of the Golden Gate mills, is president. Another reason is that the site of the Golden Gate mills has become too valuable for mill purposes. The Sperry Company will build another flour-mill in San Francisco to take place of the Golden Gate mill. A decision has been rendered which will be of the greatest importance in the enforcement of the Chinese Exclusion Act.

C.), April 13.—The Brit Columbia Sugar Refinery here has closed. The management claims that for a time it has been hard work to pay expenses, owing to the importation of cheap sugar into the province. There is enough Chinese sugar in the market to only the whole province, and it is being cheaper than the British Columbia Sugar Refinery can sell its product. The amount of this is plain. On account of Hongbing being a free port, bone charcoal and chinery are produced much cheaper than but the main saving is in wages. The nausee coolie works for twelve or fifteen cents for 15 cents, while the 100 hands in British Columbia Sugar Refinery were 20 cents per hour. Chris Evans has told Warden Aull of some penitentiary that Louis B. McWhirter the Frema lawyer, was killed by Reel Terry, and that Richard Heath, who has been tried for the crime, witnessed the order. Terry says he is not surprised at accusation Evans may make as Evans wants to get even for the part he (Terry) took in prosecuting George Sontag for train robbery.

Jan11tf The latest excitement occurred last week when a deputy United States marshal swooped down on the Park hotel and seized the beer and liquor in stock because the clerk in charge of the house could not show a federal license when demanded to do so by the officer. The proprietor of the hotel was in Los Angeles and the guests of the house had to go dry until he returned, and the matter was fixed up with the marshal by the proprietor showing a license, giving him authority to sell liquor. The fruit canners are rejoicing over an unprocedented demand for California canned fruits from the east. At present from 2,000 to 5,000 cases are being shipped east daily, and canners expect to dispose of their entire stock of last season's goods. The cold soap cast of the Rockies that killed all the fruits has made California canned foods in demand, and prices are going up. Last year's crop in this State was especially fine and well adapted to canners' rules. And the California product now being sent east cannot fail to influence the reputation of California as a fruit growing state. The squabble over the $10,000 reward offered for the capture of Evans and Sontag by Wells, Fargo & Co., is finally settled. The reward for the capture of Sontag was paid to Marshal Gard, but the reward for the capture of Evans was disputed. Deputy Sheriff Hall claimed the reward on the grounds that he made the arrest, and Gard claimed it because he wounded Evans before he reached Perkins' house, and, if Hall had not beaten him, he would have made the capture. Wells, Fargo & Co., last week gave Sheriff Kay and Detective Capella a check for $5,000, which will be almost evenly divided. The State reward was divided as follows: To Gard, $1,500; to Jackson, $1,000, and $1,000 each to Burns and Rapelijs. The United States Department of Agriculture will, in a short time, issue an emergency bulletin treating of the San Jose scale of this State, sometimes called the perennial scale. This insect, which is the most serious enemy of its kind which the fruit-growers in this State have to contend with, has made its appearance in the East—the first time it was discovered there being last year, when it was found in the vicinity of Charlotteville, Virginia, and the State Board of Agriculture of Virginia, with the help of the United States Department of Agriculture, has just completed a series of fumigating operations which it is hoped have practically destroyed it in that locality. It has just been discovered in two other Eastern localities, at Do Funiki Springs, Florida, and Riverside, Maryland, and in the latter instance it has severely injured an orchard of 300 apple and apple trees. How the insect was introduced in these localities is not known, but it is claimed that it was conveyed upon nursery stock shipped from this State and sold by Eastern nurserymen. BERLIN, April 12.—A weekly journal publishes extracts from the diary of a German resident of Cameroone, which fully bears out the charges that have been against certain of the German officials in that country. The diary contains entries showing that Herr Wehlan, the Governor's substitute, who led an expedition against the natives, issued an order to his subordinates directing them to cut the throats of all the old women who fell in their hands. The other natives who were so unfortunate as to be captured were conveyed on shipboard, where they Judge Smith of the Los Angeles Superior Court has decided that to sell deer meat within the limits of this State while the game law is in force, even though the deer might have been killed in some remote part of the country where there was no law, is an offense punishable under the statutes. The decision is an important one and is probably the first on the point rendered in California, for the question as to the rights of butchers in this respect has never before been settled. In explanation of the reasons for ruling as he does the Judge prepared a lengthy decision, which sets forth that the particular clause in section 626 of the Penal Code of California, which reads "Every person in the State of California who shall at any time sell, or offer for sale, the hide or meat of any deer shall be guilty of misdemeanor," is not to be construed as covering only deer killed in California, but means simply that which the words imply. The case in point was against a Los Angeles butcher, who sold meat from a deer brought from Texas. The Heath jury was discharged after being out 80 hours. The vote was ten for conviction and two for acquittal, two being L. Gilroy and Captain Bratton. Gilroy says the evidence was not sufficient to convince him, and Bratton refuses to talk. Two ballots were taken and on each ballot the vote was nine to three. The third ballot was ten to two and remained that way. Heath was in court, accompanied by his mother, sister and brother. Mrs. Heath looked very much depressed until the jury announced they could not agree and were dismissed. Then she breathed easier, and seemed indicted because the Judge refused to consider the matter of bail. Almost immediately she left the room leaning on Mr. Tupper's arm and accompanied Heath to jail. Heath seemed very happy and when the Judge discharged the jury his face wore a smile of satisfaction and relief. Judge Webb announced that there were some matters he wished to consider before he heard the application for bail. "Willie" Wilde, formerly the husband of Mrs. Frank Leslie of New York, was married a few days ago to Miss Sophia Lees by special license in London. The bride is described as young, beautiful and rich and Irish parentage. She is a granddaughter of Thomas Ordo Lees of Merrion, near Dublin. "Willie" Wilde, as everybody called William C.K. Wilde, brother of Oscar Wilde, is a big dashing man of fine appearance, with a persistent proclivity for being out at night and a liquid capacity that made Gotham rounders stand agaist. "Willie" manly form captivated the eyes of Mrs. Frank Leslie while she was in England and he made his first appearance in New York in her train. In London he had been a literary man and a barrister without client; but that did not worry him. When he reached New York he was introduced into convivial society by W.J. Arkell, and it was not long before he had a favorite seat in the Lotus Club, where even after his marriage he could be found almost any time. For laziness "Willie" had no equal. Mrs. Leslie said she never knew him to cut the leaves of her publications, and she did not believe he know his names. Wilde and Mrs. Leslie were married October 4, 1891, and divorced two years later on account of "Willie" habits.
