abusive. twisted her arms, slapped
her and many times chOked her. She
described ather acts of violence when
her husband would crush her month
between his hands and cut the flesh
upon her teeth so that she was un—
able to eat for three and four day
periods. -.
The petitioner said her husband
had much ability as a. mechanic, but
worked at it but little. She often
was obliged to lend him money. she
said. When her baby was born she
said her husband stole her jewels. in-
cluding a diamond ring given her by
her father on her graduation from

sent fromr her‘room. .' she said. and
when she later charged him with
having it he told her to search his
clothing. As she did so. she told the
court. he dropped the ring upon the
floor. and when she stopped to pick
it up he stamped his foot upon her
hand. inflicting a. painful injury. .
Pratt. she said. visited the Nor-
walk women every Monday, Wed-
nesday and Saturday night without
fail and when she asked him to give
her up and stay home. he replied
that the Schaefer woman could play
and sing too entertainingly for him
to remain home.
Mrs. Pratt unfolded many in-
stances of finding her husband in
the other woman's company. and of
her appeal to the girl to give Pratt
back to his wife and child.
Pratt was arrested in February,
1919. for the theft of an automo-
bile and held for the disappearance
of the owner of the car, Charles
Copolla. a Norwalk jitneur. who has
never been heard of since. Blood
‘ w found upon the. car when locat-
c in New York in the possession of
Pratt. On December 9. 1919. Pratt
was sentenced to state‘s prison for
ihrec to five years for theft of the
automobile. She state police worked
for months on the disappearance of
Copolla. without solving the mystery.
Mrs. Pratt testified she worked
hard to save her husband during
his trial for the sake of her boy. and
was responisblc later for his being
paroled from prison. After being pa-
roled. Pratt. she said.'visiicd her and
threatened her life if she persisted in
going through with her action for di-
vorcc.

thrills in rapid succession at the Geno;
Conference that everybody. delegates

The Italian statesmen. as sponsors
of the conference. were joined by Mr.
Lloyd George. M. Barthou. 'M. The-
unys. and the leaders of the lesser
states in. fervently hoping that'the sen-
sations had come to an end. and that
something might really be done about
Russia. To that. of course. should be
added Lloyd George's ambition for the
blrthyof an all-European accord that
the nations shall not attack one an-
nggrgssion which
would excite attack; ‘ 1 --.
The allied and neutral powers seem
