There is more in the question of this channel than the mere fact that Rensselaer pro|»ei ty is to be assessed for its construction We ask for the article referred to a careful reading, and urge upon tb» people, a full discussion of this subject before it is everlastingly too late to remedy matters.

Mrs. Sabina May Richards has begun suit for a divorce from Wm. S. Richards, better known as Sherman Richards. She charges Sherman with having developed an incompatibility of temper, and also with calling her opprobrious names; the example epithet cited in the complaint being, in polite society limited strictly to the females of the canine species. Incidentally, the complaint also remarks that Sherman has been guilty of the scriptural cause for divorce, and what seems to have hurt worse, he bragged about it to the plaintiff. The other party mentionedln this part of the complaint is one Mary Wilson. The parties live in Rensselaer, were married in 1888, and have a three year old son. The p laintiff’s maiden name was Sabina M ay Peterson and she wants it all back again, together with the custody of the child, and “all other proper relief.”
