Tbe plaintiff sought a divorce on no particular ground, but alleged gross neglect of duty sod two pr three sepa rate acta of cruelty. The Court thought from the testimony that there waa collusion -between the plaintiff and defendant.

Smith waa restored to ber maiden name, Anna Dean, Emmanuel Plankenton aaainat Mary Plank uton waa th next case decided. The husband sought a divorce ou tbe ground of willful absence for more than three years. The testimony ahowed that the defendant had left her husband three different times, and seemed to have no regard foe her child. Tbe Court said from the peculiar actions of Mrs. Plankenton he bad some doubts ot her sanity, and he would pass the case to his successor.

but would allow th partlea to rurniah audi' tlonal testimony. Msry Street against Henry Street was a suit lor divorce on me grounasoi wiiitui eosence, gross neglect and fsllure to support. Tbe hnaband wss a worthless, drunken fellow who left his wife and remained away for eight years, and when he returned, a abort time before the petition waa filed, he had, in consequence of hla habitual drunkenness, tbe appearance of a crank. The wife was shown to be a sober, industrious, virtuous woman. She refused to take her husband back, as he evinced no disposition to reform.

Tbe Court granted a divorce on the ground of willful absence. Begina Eckert (ought to get a divorce from Michael Eckert on the ground of gross neglect of dutv, failure to support and willful absence. Granted on the charge or willful absence. The custody of the ohild was awarded to th Ella Smith against George Smith. Thia ras a claim for divorce, alleilng gross neglect of duty and extreme cruelty.

The Court held that tbe charge of gross neglect of duty had not been made out, and although the hue-band had treated bla wife unfeelingly and badly at times It was not such cruelty aa Intended by the statute. petition was dismissed at plaintiffs cost, but without prejudice to a future action. In the case of Tenesber against Tenesber the wife sought a divorce on the ground of extreme ornelty, gross neglect and fraud In the marriage contract. Tbe parties were married on May 7, 1880. and ou October 7th ot the same year tbe defendant left hla wife.

The charges of extreme cruelty on one or two occasion were not sufficient to obtain a decree of divorce. Tbe case waa diamlased without prejudice to another action. Clara Talbot agalnat Charles A. Talbot waa a suit for alimony. Th case came up on a motion to dismiss the petition.

The decree of tbe Hancock County lomnton Pleas Court was produced to show that a decree of divorce had beengrantcd in that county. A auit was filed in this Conrt previous to the one in Hancock County, and thequestion was as to which Court first obtained jurisdiction. Judge Conner held that wnlie tb decree of another Court of concurrent jurisdiction must be respected, yet tha questions of alimony and tbe custody of tbe child were still at issue, and the Hamilton Common Pleas first obtained jurisdiction. The motion to dismiss was, uereiore, overruieu. vTerklacBBea'a Ewsertetamewt.

Sons cf ths Schemes of People. How iiey Attract Crowd of Cus-- tomers. 1 PttncU and Judy Luns and Lift Tests The Dentist Fakir. Experience of a Reporter With a Tooth i Butcher. Spring having opened bright and warm the streets are thronged In the afternoons and evening with an ver-chaaging atowd of pedestrians.

Some are out for pleasure. Som are out for th sake of being seen. Some are out on business. Some are out because they have ae, place else to go. The street fakir Is ripe, and is oa the look out for stray nickels and dimes.

How often have you passed the street fakir and wondered bow he manages to liver" How often have you congratulated yourself that you are not a atreet fakir? How often have you wondered what tne crowds can find to entertain thj In tb rig' marole poured forth by tb atreet akirr How often hav you declared to yourself that the atreet fakir I a fraud? How often have you swked yourself where do Street fakir come from? How often baveou tried to imagine where tbey go to when they are done yelling them' selves hoarse? Haven't you always thought a street fakir one of the mysteries of th age? Did you ever know a street fakir person ally? Did yon ever know th name of one? Did you ever know where one of them lived? Did yon ever aee one any place-but mounted on hia little throne or his buggy? Did you ever buy any thing front on of tbem? Did yon ever speak to one? Did you ever stop to listen to one of them? If. yon did, did you aver aee one Of them mad? Did you ever see one of them taken aback or abashed? Did you ever hear any body ask on of tbem a question that he didn't have a ready reply for? Saturday afternoon and evening Is a har vest-time for the street-fakir. Every body in this country baa money more or lesson Saturday afternoon and eveuing, people out of a hundred In thla country spend their money as soon as possi ble, and It matters but a llttl In th most of cases what thev attend It for. Aiayoe irs aon Know any tning spout Daman nature. Maybe they aont realise the fact that a dime or a nickel la not considered any thing oy nearly every-poay in America.

So bezin with them, the fakir knows that a thousand or fifteen hundred sales, the profit upon each oi which la three cents or six cents, according to whether he has a nickel or a dime snap, is nothing 10 pi customers. He knows equally well what a comfortable day's work it is to him. If yon happened- to pass Fifth and Main streets Saturday afternoon, doubtless you no ticed the throng of several hundred people tnat surroundea a man wno wa selling truck ss fast aa he could hand It out and clutch the money offered lo nlm? He had a Punch and Judy show. He held the little flxures In his hand or under hi arms, and he made them perform so many comical trick and ny so many funny things that he kept on attracting new customers all the time. The weather was pleasant, the fakir was in defatigable, and the crowd was easily pleased.

The fakir knew that bla audience was all tha time changing, and he could Play the same trick over an.d over agsln. He gave hi auditor a free Punch and Judy how, and then rung in hi wares. Ltk all fakir, all be wanted waa to get a crowd around him. It ia easy enouah for the fakir to land hla suckers if he once get them within earshot. Then there i the giiD-tonguea oratorical fakir who telle hi audience delightful but often inelegant stories about any thing else than the article he hss for sale; but aa anon as the lakir excites tne curiosity oi a snmoient number of persons to form a corporal's guard he knows full well that tbey in turn will draw more people into the circle to hear What's going on.

and his stock of anecdote always lsrge enongh and sufficiently amusing tohold hla chumpa until the corporals guard become a regiment. -l ne ooject i to get a crowa. It Is a common -scheme for a fakir to begin by boldlng up a t-JO-blll and crying out: bo will give me S19 for this S20 bill. It's good and lawful currency ot the realm." Probably there will be some Hesitation in the crowd about dickering with tbe fakir. bot he vociferously assures his hearers that the money 1 genuine, and proposes that Somebody examine It closely.

Tbe bill is resiiy gooa money, oat ai nrst It look so foolish for a man to sell 120 for S19 that the crowd doesn't understand bow such a thins can be done without some trick being behind it. Failing to sell a twenty -dollar bill on the proposed terms, the fakir then offers to sell a ten-dollar bill for $9. Possibly the acheme-doeant work yet, and, after yelling out his proposition for fifteen nilnutes, the fakir puta up a five-dollar bill, which he offers to sell for si. Directly somebody examines the money, and, finding It genuine, buys It at the fakir's terms. The fakir then offer, to aell 4 for S3, and finds a customer for the money.

He next put up S3, and declare will sell tbem forW 60. The sale Is made, snd 1 followed by the offer of 92 for $1 60. Then SI Is sold for ninety cents, and ninety cents for eighty cents, and so on down untU a dime is offered for nothing. All this ha taken time, and before It is over several hundred persons are around the fakir. Every body- is excited and wonders what will be done next, Then ia the time for the fakir to get hi work in.

He haa advertised himself, and haa paid for it. There ia tbe fakir who swallow mile of ribbons, and (flows Or from hia mouth to entertain his audience. He baa something for sale which he swears will remove stains from any thing and every thing, and makes you believe you have thrown away enough clothing that 'might have been saved to pay the National debt. Hare I one of the critters with a lung tester. He dilates upon th necessity of knowing whether your longs are in good condition, and vow that a doctor will charge1 you 85 to examine your lungs, whil you can make a better teat ot your own lung Dy paying only Ave cents.

Each particular lung fakir has the only accurate lung tester In America. All others are bogus. Mis ia tbe most costly apparatus in the country, and was Imported bv himself. You blow intotbe tube and pay your nickel, and the fakir tells you that you have done well, but. you don't know any more about your lungs than you did before.

Next you come across a fakir with a lift-test, The fskir says that every body ought to know bow much dead weights fellow can left You don't know why yon need know any thing of the kind, but you pay your nickel, lay hold of the machine, and yank tha pointer around to figure 000 on the dial. You are surprised to. learn that you can lift 000 pounds dead weight, or any other kind of weigbt. but tu owner of the "lift" Inform you that hi I he only accurate lift In tbe United State. Nobody else can afford to pay the money that his lift coat, and that he imported It.

But the dandy fakir is th fellow who rigs himself out la red velvet ana spangles and rides around the streets in a carriage. This is a dentist fakir, and he Just simply coins money. i He pulls oat teeth for nothing, merely to how bow easily it can' be done. If you caliat his office he charge yon a dollar for the first tooth and fifty cents for eacb subsequent tooth. Poor people flock to his carriage to have tbelr snaga jerked oat by the free dentist, and the other day one woman had a dozen row palled as fast aa you couM count tbem.

The street dentist has a pstcnt medicine for sale that he guarantees will care toothache, backache, headache, earache, stomachache, heartache, or any other kind of ache. A tew days ago an Eaot'lRaa reporter went to the King's office and found about twenty-five women there waiting to have their teeth palled. The reporter pointed oat a bad tooth in hla own head. 'and asked the dentist to experiment on it. The first thing thereportev knew the dentist had flipped out two teeth, several onucea of meat, a good portion of hia jaw-bone and a lice of tongue.

Tbe amputation of an arm wouldn't bave been a marker, and it was some time before the poor devil of a reporter eould realise that aa eight-story hotel had not fallen oa him. The reporter fluttered ar-rand tbe room like a beheaded chicken for ten minutes, with tbe dentist Insisting upon It that it would be all right soon, and when the butchered reporter attempted to leave the room the dentist hauled him back, endeavoring to persuade him that if he'd aifdown a while It would be all right, Tbe dentist declined to take any money for his work, and pressed a botilaof hla medicine upon tb reporter free ot charge, although be did not know him from Adam's off ox. It la said thst ths dentists of New York paid one of these fellows a good round sum to leave tbe city, as hi street tiractii-a waa an in. Jurious io th legitimate trad that It became alarming. Unlca(jo-s demist alao hired him to leave for the tarn reason, patsajt Kxaa.
