wish to continue with his mother-in-law and asked his wife to remove witli him to annother dwelling. Upon her refusing to do so he removed a!ami uod after tho proper lapse ol time brought suit for a divorce on the ground that his wife bad deserted him and remained away for more than three years. Under tho laws of Maryland l|ps is sufllciect ground for a divorce. The wife did not defend. A decree has now been refused, the court holding that the wife’s conduct did not constitute the desertion contemplated by law, and intimating that the cose looked liko one of collusion, "If this were desertion,” it says substantially, “a man and wtfo desiring a divorce cculd agroo to separate, and after three yiars the husband, alleging desertion, could apply for a decree. That would be a state of things more fit for the atmosphere of Utah than that of Maryland." F.lla Higgins, the young daughter of a poor miner, at Dunmore, Pa„ desired to dress as well as her companions at a forthcoming party and therefore purchased some fineries at a storo saying they were for the wife of a neighbor, who would pay for them. The merchant, on ascertaining how ho hail been tricked, made arrangements to have.the girl arrested. When tho officer went to get her she was found hanging to a beam in the garret of her home. Public opinion on tho subject of faitbhushands is very strong in Somerset, Ky. Mr. Lover was that kind of an offender. TIis wige fed a tnoh against him. Ha fled hastily, without coat, trouseres, or boots, witii tfie crowd in dole pursuit. At the end of a mile he was overtaken, and left suspended head downward from a tree. He was almost frozen to death when two hours afterward, a human prea-

cher cut him down.
