WFE ISIE UKE THE VT WA HUGO NOVEL Mrs. Leo Hicox Must Go, Through Life Resembling “The Man Who Laughs.” SLASHED BY HUSBAND. Keen Blade Cut Comers of Her | Mouth—He Is Held for Trial. Bn one of Victor Hugo's great novels, “fee Man Who Laughs,” the hero while @ boy was captured by vagabonds and Mratilated in sith a way that hie face wore a hideous grin. The effect was achieved through slashing each corner of the mouth. When the wounds healed the scars drew the mouth up at the | corners and whatever the victim's emo. tlons—whether sorrow, anger or pain— fig mouth remained twisted upward in that fearful smile, Tae only case on recom of such a mutilation in our times came up to-day before Judge Malone in Part I. of the Court of General Sessions, when Leo Hicox, son of Mrs. Jennie Crapo, who conducts a linen shop at No. 41 Fifth @venue, was brovht forward to plead to an indictment charging him with as- gauit in the first degree for attacking his young wife, Caroline Hicox. The young man is charged with @adhing both corners of his wife's mouth almost back to the ears. The Qileged assault took place two days be- fore Christmas. Mrs. Hicox, once a Bretty girl, {9 still wearing bandages anda her physicians say she will have to @o through life as ‘the woman who laughs," for when her wounds heal the @isfiguring ecars will draw her mouth into a perpetual, pitiable grin. Hicox wae arrested after the assault on his wife in her apartment at Nq. 541 West One Hunldred and Forty-fourth street. The case did not impress the District-Attorney’s office even after the young man wag held without bail by Magistrate Krotel ang he was let out on $1,000 ball. % The case might not have come vefore the Grand Jury for months had not O. attorney, of No, 20 Interested himself in the case and brought the seri- ousi.ess of the assault to the attention of Assistant Disgrict-Attorney Dele- hanty. The Distriat-Attorney's office took immediate action and yesterday se- cured the indictment. Mrs. Hicox came to the Assistant Dis. trict-Attorney yesterday and asked that Hicox be arrested. She said he had threatened several times to kill her since the assault and his Ifberation on bati, Delehanty secured a warrent and Hicox Was arrested, He pleaded not guilty to-day and was held for trial. The Court, at the in- stance of Mr. Delehanty, raised the ball to $2,500 end Hicox was placed in the Tombs. “Now that the District-Attorney has recognized the importance vo! 11s case," said Attorney Campbell to-day, “the trial will be pushed, This is one of the most atrocious acts I have ever come tm contact with. “This poor girl's husband, from whom he had separated, went to her apart- ment late the night of Dec. 23, forced fle way to her bedside and declared that fhe bad ‘come to fx her good and plenty.’ MMe took up @ razor and deliberately \@ashed her from each corner of her meuth outward.
