LARGE ALIMONY ASKED.

Mi's. Amanda Davis, of Brown Township, Asks for a Divorce from James Davis. Last Monday by Crane .t Anderson, lior attorneys, Mrs. Amanda Davis, of near brown's Valley, tiled application in tho circuit court for divorce from her husband, James Davis. As it was supposed that the defendant would make no defense .he matter was kept suppressed in the belief that everything could be settled amicably and quietly. Inasmuch, however, as Mr. Davis* has employed counsel and a lengthy public trial is to occur it seems best to give a plaiu and fair statement of the facts in the case. Mr. and Mrs. Davis, so the complaint says, were married twontythree years ago raid for the first five years lived together very peacefully.

Four daughters were born to them, and as timo went on Mrs. Davis was greatly shocked at the profanity of her husband who swore constantly and without restraint before herself and children. Not infrequently ho cursed, slapped and choked her in the presence of .lie children, and a week ago last Saturday after such an occurrence, Mr. Davis resolved that she could stand it no longer, and consequently filed the suit. She asks for the children and S-10,000 alimony.

Mrs. Davis is a most excellent lady, and upon the establishment of her charge shoulc. riceive all she asks. .las. Davis is one of the most prominent and wealthiest citizens of Montgomery county,and has retained G. \Y. Paul as hisattornoy, Mr. Paul is not yet admitted to the bar of the circuit court, where the case is to be tried of necessity, and will have to got admitted before ho can conduct the case. This will add anew complication to the nlTair.

The Carter-Hostatter Marriage. The marriage of Clias. Carter, of Denver, Col., and Miss Mattio Hostetter took place last evening at the home of tho bride,ou south Green street.
