Judge Gilmor, in the circuit court, granted Martha Ann Jeter a divorce a mensa et thoro from her husband, Thomas R. Jeter. In the bill of complaint Mrs. Jeter alleged that Mr. Jeter bad failed to 7 herself and children, deserting bis family for months ata time. In bis answer Jeter admitted he did not support his family, but urged that he was a “sportin: want of mouey. He patible were the views and opinions of him- self and wife that they scarcely ever met —— ee It was impossible for them to live together in any comfort. Mrs. Jeter also asserted that her husband was in the habit of associating with lewd. women. Jeter denied that he associated with lewd Women or other improper characters any further than his character and occupation as @ sporting man rendered necessary. Intem- perauce and quarreling in his cups were also | P®. cosrgcd. Though this did not seem to con- flict with Jeter’s idea of a “sporting man,” he denied the charge of intemperance, but admitted that he quarreled sometimes when in astate of greatexcitement. In short, it appeared from Jeter’s own admissions that, though @ “sporting man” might be corsid- ered a good fellow by all the world outside his family, be would never make a good husband. There is @ morai in this for the ladies—never marry & “sporting man,” if you al! bave to die old maids. Mrs. Jeter was awarded the custody of the children.— (Batt. Americon, 22d.

A WOMAN CHARGED WITH KILLING Hier INFANT DAUGHTER.—Mrs. Mary J. Healy, @ married woman living at 1i2 D Street, South Bostun, was arrested on Tours- gayfor the murder of Mary Healy, her daughter, aged two years and eight months, | with a pairofscissors. The wound was in- | faeted on the second day of May, bat in what manner or by whom remains to be proved. One fact is certain, and that is that the child died from the effects of a wound in the abdomen. Dr. Proven was first called toattend the child, and he summoned other physicians for consultation, but their skill Was useless, as the child lived but a few hours after the infliction of the wound, dy- | ing the next day, May 3. The mother satis- | fled the doctor as to the cause of the child’s | death, apparently, for he granted a certifi- cate of burial, and the child was buried in | the Calvary at The matter was then | apparently settled, but the mother, either | from an uneasy conscience or other reason, | talked the matter over repeatedly until rumors of Lawrd ged ieached the ears of the | Police, followed almost immediately by four Anonymous letters to Captain Graves and Officer Clough, and one letter signed “J. R. B.” giving information where the facts of the | case could be learned Officer Clough was | therefore given the case, and secured suffi- | ¢lent evidence to warrant the arrest of Mrs. | Healy on_a charge of murder, which was done on Thursday by Officer Clough and Ham. An investigation was at once ordered, and Coroner Osman requested to prosecute it. At the time the affair happeaed the woman is reported to have told several peo- ple that she struck the child with the scis- sors ina fit of anger, and this statement the | officers claim they can prove. Mrs. Healy | Will be fully committed to-day for examina- tion by the grand jury.

The Laramie Chronicie now comes out with @ sensational story, in which it is claimed | that the Metzes and the who accom. ied were murdered by white vil- | lains, who followed them from the Black | Hills. According to the Chronicle story, the | bodies of the victims were despoiled of | morey, jewelry and clothing, and some of the latter is now being worn by white men | about Fort Laramie, while the jewelry has changed hands several times.
