Ecegleston for an absolute legal separation. The ground on which Eggleston seeks a decree is cruelty. Charles Eggleston’s matrimonial ven- ture proved a great surprise. While on a visit to friends in the East he met and after a very short courtship took as his bride the young woman he s now suing. | The = place in sas City 3 rom all accounts the of the young couple was quite | piness as short as the courtship, for within less | than one month Eggleston had left his | bride and returned to his home in this | eity.

Noah F. Flood, at one time principal of the Spring Valley Grammar School, ora- tor and lawyer, has been sued by his sec- ond wife, Annie E. Flood, for a divorce. Fallure to provide is alleged as cause of action. Flood twenty years ago was num- bered among the m prominent men of the coast. His brilliancy and splendid presence It was thought assured him a substantial reward in life, and he mar- ried Miss Jenny Dunphy, a wealthy and beautiful girl. Finally Flood's habits be- came such that she separated from him and subsequently secured a divorce. Flood married his present wife in 1885, and now she has found the bonds of matrimony with Flood irksome and has sued for legal separation. Suits for divorce have also been flled by Charles Jellinek against Alice J. Jelll- nek, for infidelity; William Morte against Catherena Morte, for cruelty; Louls F. Melsing against Adele Melsing, for de- sertion, and George F. Peppler against Ella Peppler, for desertion. Decrees of divorce have been granted Barah Wackenhuth from Robert Wacken- huth on the ground of fallure to provide, Lizzie Shade from George W. Shade on the ground of wiliful neglect, Ellen E. Uphoft from Frederick W. Uphoff on the ground of extreme crueity, Louisa Fried- rich from A. H. Friedrich on the ground of cruelty, Annle Taylor from John W. Taylor on the of cruelty and Ja- cob Hirschler from Mary A. ler on the ground of intemperance. T00 STRONG.

The preliminary examination of Thomas J. Carr, laborer at the Union Iron Works, charged with manslaughter in connection with the death of his wife, was concluded before Judge Conlan yesterday, and he was held to answer before the Superior Court, his bonds being fixed in $3000. Lieutenant Anderson testified that when he went to the house, 13 Michigan street, to arrest Carr he was in the kitchen, He was brought to his wife’s bedside and he ““Polly, if you tell the lieutenant not to take me away I will go to bed.” She replied: “Tom, I won't.

A PETR AP T EI DAL 2 2 2 d 2 ddd gl ddd dd dd 2l g d i dddddd Two “mashers” were in the Police Court | yesterday to answer to the charges of in-| sulting yonng girls. Both were still suf- fering from the effects of sound thrash- ings administered by the fathers of their victims. In addition one of the accused was sentenced to ninety days In the Coun- ty Jail, ard the other seems to be in a fair way also to receive the full penaity of the law. | Julius Rufus, a barber, was the first of the tribe to feel the fist of the father and the hand of the law. Edward Han- sen, a private in Company F, Forty-second Volunteer Infantry, has yet to have his case determined. | | Rufus was arrested on a warrant sworn | | out by Daniel W. Saylor, proprietor of a | restaurant at 10 Stockton street. He ap- peared for trial yesterday morning before Lt 24l dddd ddd dad » Police Judge Graham. The testimony showed that Myrtle R. Saylor, who is a High School, | pupil at the Polytechnic was waiting for her sister on the corner [ of Bush and Stockton streets on the after- noon of November 14, just after school had been dismissed, when Rufus came up behind and jostled her. “Hello!” fe said, “are you waiting ior young girl, frightened at the “‘mash- er's” attack, stepped aside quickly, say- ing nothing. ““Well, ain't you walting for me?” he asked again. “No,” she replied sharply, at the same | time starting across the street. Being un- | der necessity of waiting for her sister, and | seeing that the “masher” did not follow, | the girl stopped on the opposite corner | till Rufus began making signs to her, | when she left to report the matter to her | father. He was not at the restaurant when she got there, so she told her story | to one of the waiters, who at once put on his coat and hat and started for Bush street, where he found Rufus, evidently waiting for some other schoolgirl upon whom to practice his wiles. The waiter taxed Rufus with his mis- deed, and the fellow acknowledged it, saying as an excuse that he mistook Miss lor for a girl of his acquaintance. en Mr. Saylor heard of the insult to his daughter he became very angry and | went in search of the barber. He did not | find him until tk :xt day, when Rufus him the y turned in and gav a good thumping, following it arrested.

He has been in San Francisco five years, studying to be a statesman, as he modestly explained " on the witness stand, and he has made good use of his time, for he testified without the aid of an interpreter, his English was faultless in respect to grammar and rhetoric, and there was but very little trace of a for- =3 b7 o gn accent.
