A Bhe-Devil's Maltreatment of nn Eight.Year-0ld Depondent. WIFE-WIHIPPING AND RAPIL, Bpecial Correspondence of The Trilune. Des Moines, Ia, June 19.~The past week has disclosed the villainles of a very devil In- carnate, who has, by the power of hls hrutality, kept concealed his cruelties. The narc of this fiend fs Milton Vansant; and Clarida, Pege County, is cursed with his residence. About three years ago he married the daughter of a bighly respectable famfly. He soon after be- gan to abuse her, and, as time passed, his cruelties fucreased. He has whipped ler and pounded her in every concelvable way. At times hie would take a club and pound Ler; then a switch and whip Ler. Bomething over a jear 8o he threw an eat of corn ut her, hitting” her in the sfde, which caused a_miscarriage. Fome time after this she huppened o the stable, and he knocked her down In one of the atalls, where she ln{ unconsclous for some thne, At last slie tame to, and, when he ob- sarved ft, he remarked, “D—n you, 1 thought ou were dead and In h—1 by this tme!” A ew days efnce he went at ler with the butcher- knifc and cut through her clothes, touching the ekin in eeveral places. Durlng this time he kept her so under bis control that untf] recently she did not tell her own people huw badly she waa treated. Durlng this time, In hls own Louse, he attempled to cummit rape upon a consin of his wif¢, who was stopping over night with them, but she got away and went home, In August lnst o 12-year-old elster of hls wife was stopping with tlicm, and at uight slept on thelounge. - He got out'of his own hed, and, in the presence of his own wife, committed o crime that pales all others. After gratifying his devillsh lust, he took his pgun “aus wmade them both promise they would nev- er tell, atthe same time saying if they did he would not only kill them, Lut ulso thefr futher and mother. The child went home looking budly, oud her mother osked her what was the matter. At last the child fnformed her, aud an examinution showed that her story was too true. Her mother, fearing Vansant, and koow- ing that he had threstened to both kill and Lurn then out, safd nothing to her husband about it until Friday last. On Friday night warrant was made out for brutal treatment of his wife, and placed in the hands of the Sheriff, who arrested Vansant. On Baturday snother writ was taken out, and he was arrested on the udditional charge of rape. Exmmnination of his wife shows that rhe {s scarred all over, and cov- ered with sores caused by the brutal husband, She Is nothing but o skeleton, and has suffered at thig ficud’s hands o thousand deatks.
