Robinson lived happily together as man and wife, and there was no legal reason why they should not do so. However, after a while there was a change, and the happy home was broken up. The wife had gone with a handsomer man, who is the defendant in the case just insti- tuted. Raymond and the ~Robinson woman, it is asserted, have been living together for some time on East Pierce street, and there was not the slightest indication of an approaching storm. Wednesday Mr. Robinson came to this city from Omaha, and quite by ident met his wife. She stated that she had been anxious to return to him for some time, but was deterred by fear of Ray- mond, The couple visited the court house, and the husband preferred a charge against Raymond.
