Gay Files Another Page.
Jasper Guy has added another solid t>pe-written page to his divorce complaint and this brings him right down to date in the long story of bis marital troubles. He labels the new page as 10£ but it i» long enough to have given it a whole nnmber. This new page reoites that all of bis children have been driven from home exoept a 10 year old son and a 14 year old daughter, the latter an invalid. And that he informed the defendant that his business would keep him away fiom home a good deal this winter. Thereupon he observed she was making preparations for a journey, aud he also overheard her telephone au order for a railroad tioket to Florida. He ex postulated with her for going away and leaving his siok girl without care whereupon, aa he states, she Said she would not stay at home to save their lives and that sue “did not oare a dotnn how they got aloag.” Jasper then says he promised hei a tiip to a summer resort u6xt eunmerjif she would §give up the Florida trip, and says she promised to do so, but instead sent her baggage to Wolcott, and then bid in a vacant house near the railroad, and when the train came along jumped cn its blind side, so to speak, and now she is euj >ving life in the soft swe-tt breezes of the snnny southland.
