Sijuire James Kelly, of Huntingdon, disentangled a somewhat knotty matrimo nail difficulty to the satisfaction of all the parties at interest. A married woman and a married man—uot her husband—boarded the stage coach at Cassville and made love d-iring the whole trip to Mill Creek. The coupie embraced each other tenderly at the latter place and parted. The woman's husband was a witness to the amatory leave taking. He took his wife home, leetnred her soundly and thrashed her with the family switch. The enraged wife sued her husband for assault and battery and the hearing was productive of much amusement. After the testimony had all been heard 'Squire Kelly aro.-e, and with great deliberation, said: The"vcrdict of the court is that the platiniff retire to her usual place of abode and lock the doors so that no strangers can be ad mitted for a pel iod of six days: that the husband, for the same length of time, board with his best neighbor and sleep in the barn, and that each party pay half the costs and stand committed until the sen tence is complied with." Tho large crowd of spec tators nearly raised the roof from the office by their vociferous applause when the sentence was pronounced. The girls of a neighboring town have formed an organization and pledged them selves that not one of them will ever marry a man who is not intelligent, houc*t, industrious, good natured, clean in person and apparel, healthy, sober, and a church member and a total abstainer from liquor, tobacco and profanity.

The authorities are somewhat doubtful il the sender can be arrested for sending obscene literature through the mails, but if the postofiiee inspector decides in the attirmative the arrest will soon be made.
