Also Hurled Cabbage and Lamp Chimney at Her Besides Slap- ping Her Face and Choking Her. What married life can be with a min- ister Was brought out in Justice G: nor's court to-day in Brooklyn, when Edyth Colby Dorr, wite of, Rev. Henry A, Dorr, formerly assistant pas- tor to Key. Dr, MacArthur, of the Cal- vary Baptist Church, took the stand. For more thay an hour she told a tale of such marital infelicities that all who heard her looked to see {f some of the brulses had not remained. “We were married in January, 1900. said Mra. Dorr. “My folks did not know of it at the time, but a few weeks after that we told’ them. My husband went to Vermont to accept a position, and [ followed him there, His first assault oceurred there soon after we got set- ued. He threw a lamp chimney at me and slapped my. face. Then he knocked me down. “On another occasion he took my rings from me, and when I resented it he sald, ‘I'll give you something to about.’ He ended that scene by pulling my hair. I had to run out of the house for protection “In October we moved to Brooklyn and he took a position in an apartment- house. He got angry over a letter one dav which I had found, He tried to choke ine and after that I had him ar- rested. “One day in criticising certain things I had been doing he threw a vudding @t me. Then he said that no decent woman evor wore crimps in her halr, Because I put salt on the cabbage he threw it at me. “On one occasion when he did_not ask a blessing after having sat cuwh he table, he called me a — fool for reminding him of it. I cried and he sald, ‘I'll blow your roof off if you don't stop crying.’ He sald that he knew he was going to hell, but that he would take me with him." After the defenaant had put five min-| isters on the stand and one, the Rev. | George 8. Rotes, had unexpectedly tes: tifled that at one thine he nad had Dr. Dorr arrested on a charge of embezzling 3300, Justice Gaynor allowed Mrs, Dorr | @ separation and $2 allmony. monthiy. rs. Dorr was also allowed $10) for MBounsel tees. Field & Crittenden, the attorneys for Dorr, admitted that in the face of all athe evidence they couldn't ask for any- thing. They asked the Justice to be al- “lowed to quietly withdraw. without fur , ther protest. aren the Justice read iminister a lecture for deluding his | olients as well as being such a heartless creature, | NEAR DEATH CURIOUS ERROR /foung Physician Named Rosen- baum Left a Bottle of Chioro- form Open as He Was Attend- ing a Child Patient. Dr. Rosenbaum, of No. 649 East Fifth Arest, was called to-day to the flat of Mra, Edna Schueler, at No, 60S East Fifth street, to attend her two-year-old boy. The doctor opened a bottle of chloroform while treating the Infant. In a few minutes not only the child ‘and its mother, but also Lena Davar, her sister-in-law and the doctor himself became unconscious. Bernard Karts, janitor of the fla had summoned Dr, Rosenbaum tn the first instance. Wher. he returned to the Schueler flul to see how the child was getting along he found the four lying around the room. ‘The St. Franc! Hospital is across the atreet and Kar:s made a wild dash there for help. On the way he met Firemen Ed Curley and Joseph Traen- Ale. of Hook and Ladder Company No. UM. With Dr. 8. A. Beal, of St. Francis, to assist them, the three men packed the f6ur unconscious persons to cots in the hospital, ‘They were then subjected to some drastic treatment, and after awhile revived.
