DIVORCE JUDGMENT WITHHELD

Judge Hanley, after hearing the evidence dr as much of it as he cared to, in the suit of Erastus Peacock for divorce, on Friday afterooou, took the case under advisement, and has so far given out no statement of his decision. Mr. Peacock was the first witness and be stated that up to a year ago Mrs. Peacock was always a dutiful wife and a good housekeeper and that the only criticism he has had of the home life has occuurred within th£ year, but that she had within that time neglected the home, refused to prepare his meals and had not given him proper nursing when he was sick. Mrs. Susau Haskell testlflM s&to her having gone to the home to act as housekeeper and that for a week tbiugs went along all right and theu Mrs. Peacock said she desired to assume the management of her own aflairs. She said Mrs. Peacock was not congenial and that she advised each of them to separate. Mrs. Lorena Bartoo, of Morocco, and Mrs. Dora McClure, of Hammond, both thought the home had been a pleasant one until within the past year. They had always regarded the father as a good provider and thought some outside influence had been brought to bear on the mother to create dissatisfaction. Their testimony was by no means a criticism of their mother and each exhibited the greatest regret that they should be placed in a position to decide) between the two. Mrs. Bartoo said she had beaeeched her mother to give np the home and live alternately with she and her sister but this she had refused to do. f

For the defense Mrs. Angeline Hemphill, who had worked in the Peacock home six years ago, testified to the disgruntled attitude oi the plaiutiff in the home, said lie continually growled aud that nothing satisfied him. Said he spoke sharply to his wife and that she had known of Mrs. Peacock crying because of his harsh language. She Raid Mrs. Peacock never complained. Mrs. Peacock told of her efforts to make home agreeable and ot his unappreciative disposition. She said he would i llow her but $3 a week for household expenses. The judge asked several questions about their differences and stated that he did not care to have the defense introduce other wituessess. The fact that the Court stopped the evidence o( the defense indicates that he will not grant the divorce, and it will not be surprising he suggests some means of reuniting them, or, if this is impossible, establishing a means of separation and maintenance, without granting an absolute divorce. The parties were married more than 39 years ago.

Hickey Goes to Prison.

The cutting scrape in Lake Village last spring in which John Hickey played the leading part, slashing Galvin Cain across the chin, ended rather disastrously to Hickey. The case was tried by a jury Friday, and Judge Darroch made a rather eloquent plea for his client, and suggested to the jury that a nominal fine, in view of the facts, would doubtless satisfy the ends of justice. The jury went out and balloted with seven at one time tor a fine, but some of the members thought this entirely inadequate and a prison sentence was finally agreed upon. By the decree of jury Hickey goes to Jeffersonville from two to fourteen years. Opinions vary in this community regarding the sentence, some thinking it is jnst right and some that it is severe. Prosecutor Graves is prosecuting cases of this character with great vigor, and it is possible that had Hickey been at his home or remained at Conrad and finished up his spree there instead of going over to the Village, that he would now be a free man. Sheriff Stoner took Hickey to Jeffersonville Saturday to enter on his term of imprisonment. —Kentlaud Enterprise.

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN

Take the girl, after ahe has been well whirled around a brilliantly lighted room some scores of time to Strauss, Sousa and Herbert, to a secluded corner of a moonlit veranda. Turning your face so that the moonlight falls across it with good effect, look up into the sky and observe: “It Is very lovely!” I have often studied this with Ihe “spot light” on the stage, and know that it causes the eyes .to come out well. In almost a whisper she Is bound to reply, "Beautiful!” for she cannot help noticing your fine profile blanched into a delicate marble, and your large eyes looking almost like twin Mars. Then sigh as you remark: “This time to-morrow I shall see the moon shining on the Hudson from n»y lonely abode in town.” Look for a shade of disappointment on her beautiful face; however, continue without the shadow: “Yes, I must go back to the office, the dally grind; It would not do for a poor devil likp myself to have too long a spell of happiness; It unfits one for the work-aday world again.” Now heave a 60 H. P. sigmfcfter regaining your breath pursue as fellows, and observe all the directions I give; “Yes; I must go back to the grindstone. (Slap your forehead hard.) I shall think —(put the very quintessence of saddened- melancholy In your voice) —]J .shall think (place hand on back of the settee) to-morrow, when I see yonder light, of this place, of this hour, naturally, (let your voice tremble and remove hand), and of something—l mean some one who—some one else.” —— She won’t answer; so keep right on. The following speech should be memorized and recited before a fulllength pier glass. Be sure to be letter perfect in It. No gestures are necessary; just straight talk: “There are Some days, Miss Goldenrod, which we think of at times as forming oases in our life’s desert. My week end at this house has been one to me. There are hours, too, hours when tears rise in the heart and gather t» the eyes almost involuntarily and feeling is stronger than speech—its very intensity depriving us of giving expression to what —to what the heart would fain utter. Have—have I your permission to call this hour mine? May I think of it, In after days, as I shall think of it, oh, how often —may I then think of it as mine?”

Keep your ears open for a tremulous whisper to the effect that “You may.” You should say, “Thank-you,” or “God bless you!” and It Is natural that you should take her hand in yours to give due force to your word?; natural enough, too, that yq» should hold it there beyond The time necessary to give it a gentle squeeze. Let the moon play an important part in the impressive silence that will follow the aforesaid squeeze. In theatrical parlance, let the moon “do the leading business” and hold the center of the stage for a brief moment. Now, are you ready? “Miss Gold —Gwendolen! for this once—(passion must ring in your sunburned throat) —I cannot bear this, longer. I know how weak it is; but I cannot, cannot help myself. Gwendolen, (or whatever her name is), do you not see that I love you? Forgive me my weakness, pardon it as springing—as springing from the strength of my love. I did not mean to have told you this. How could the struggling, unsuccessful —(I always use “author,” but you may chance to be a bank clerk or a real estate broker) —author, the penniless, disappointed artist who has seen the dream of his ambitious youth fade and die away under the blighting Influence of —of dastard enemies, leaving him almost without a hope, how could such a mam ask you to share his lot? —a lot not on Fifth avenue, a lot not even 25 by 100? Ay, even though he saw in you the realization of his ideal, though since he has known you his thoughts have known none else; even th§n he< could not tell you this. The very pride which has been the chief obstacle to his success in life prevented him. This foolish weakness, which made him forget his purpose for the moment your noble nature will forgive, I know. Gopd-bye, Miss Goldenrod — I had rather not face the people Inside just now. Good-bye! Goodbye! Will you think of me sometimes when in after years, when —when — when you are happy, and I —Will you think of me then as one who staked his all on a vain hope which his sense of honor bade him give up, though it was to drive him forth again into the world a soulless vagabond? Good-bye, summer, good-bye! 'Good-bye for £ver! I cannot stay In New York, fdi 1 I might see you In the autumn, and It— It—wouldn’t do, you know.” You will require a short rest after delivering these lines. You will find the hand that lies in yours quite passive. Look in her face and you will see tears glistening in her eyes. Tenderly kiss her good-bye, and, like the good, honest American you are, inquire, “Will you be my wife?" It Is dollars to doughnuts that the girl replies, “I will.” For the last 15 minutes she has been admiring you as an actor; now she loves you as a man of business.
