Mrs. KniiDu Weatherly Charge? Hus iMind With Absenting Himself 1 Vom Home und Failing to Support Her, und Pending Triul of the Case Ih to RaoehrC $50 Per Month and M200 for Counsel Fees. Columbia, Dec. 16.?Charging de? sertion on the part of her husband, and naming in her complaint a se? ries of offences against home life, Mrs. Emma Weatherly, of Bishop ville, appealed to Judge Memmlnger through her attorneys for alimony pendente lite this afternoo^y tond her husband, Ike W. Weatherly, will have to pay her $50) ijer month and $200 counsel fees under Judge Mem mlnger's order. ' v ,, The case on its merits has not been tried, the action taken today being merely preliminary, but when the whole matter is aired in the courts there may be interesting and sensa? tional testimony.' Mr. and Mrs. Weatherly were mar? ried twenty-four years ago, and up to a recent period have lived togeth? er as man and wife. According to the complaint, Ike Weatherly, t of I Bishopville, has for the past three or four years "constantly and con? tinuously absented himself from home, and neglected and failed to properly support, maintain and care for" his wife It is also stated in the complaint that Weatherly has con? stantly associated with other women, not only in this State, but also in Florida and Georgia. Mrs. Weather? ly claims that her husband defiantly stated to her that he would associate with these other women as long as he liked, and that Weatherly has "so far lost the sense of decency as to offer to pay plaintiff a trifling sum of money to say nothing about his go? ing with and associating with some other woman." Bringing the matter close home to Columbia, it is alleged that Weath? erly spent large sums of money "In the purchase of cloaks and furs for women In and around the city of Co? lumbia." Also It is alleged that Weatherly "has left and deserted the plaintiff, has refused to enlighten her as to where he Intended to go, leaving her without means to support herself, sold his automobile, carried away his horse and buggy in the night time, threatened to go to the State of Flor? ida for the purpose of freeing himself from this plaintiff." Mrs. Weatherly claims her hus? band is worth $12,000 to $15,000, while the husband's attorneys claim that his wealth does not exceed $3, 000 to ^$4,000. Mr. Weatherly, so the complaint alleges, was going to dis? pose of his property in Bishopville and leave town. But Judge Mem? mlnger, In an order issued upon ap? plication of plaintiff's attorneys, re? strained Sheriff Robert E. Muldrow, Jr., from turning over to Weatherly the proceeds from the sale of his property on December 6. It Is from this money that the alimony granted by Judge Memmlnger will be paid. Mrs. Weatherly claimed that she aid? ed her husband In accumulating this property, and is now unable to take care of herself. The matter that came before Judge Memmlnger was solely upon the granting of alimony pending the final determination of the cause. Judge Memmlnger stated that Inas? much as such suits were usually fought out in the courts, going final? ly Into the Supreme Court, counsel fite should be provided for the wo? man. He named $200 to be paid in four Instalments of $50 each, $50 per month alimony to be paid on the last day of each month, pending the determination of the suit for perma? nent alimony. The Messervey case was cited and a numbr of other cases touching the alimony question in this State, There were ? number of affidavits in the case. The plaintiff was repre? sented by State Senators John Clif? ton, of Sumtcr, and B. Frank Kelley, of Lee, and the defendant by Attor? ney McLaughlin, of Bishopville. It was claimed by the defense that the husband merely wished to go to Florida to engage in the lumber bus? iness, and that the wife should have gone with him, that he was support? ing his wife now, while plaintiff claims by affidavit that only small sums of money had been given and provisions. The cause is very unusual in this State, where divorce i3 not recogniz? ed, but where there are three grounds for alimony, desertion, cruel? ty or indecent conduct. Emma \\?atherly, the p.uititiff. In the pres? ent suit. Is a native of Lee county, and all her people reside In that community. Dr. John Teiry Pool, a prominent physician of Laurents, is dead at his home in that place. Mr. M. F. Emanuel, died at his home In Bennettsville Thursday night of heart disease. ROSEXWALl) IX CHARLOTTE. Charlotte Chronicle Comments <>n Collins Wire-less Promoter's Doings In Columbia. "Much interest has developed here In the case against If. L. Rosenwald, who is charged with some sort Of malpractice in connection with his work as fiscal agent f,r the Collins Wireless Telephone Company. Head? quarters for this concern is in this city, the offices being located in the Realty building. Rosenwald was given the work of representing this company in Columbia, S. C, and re? ports from that city indicate that he skipped town, leaving behind some debts, and according to the allega? tions, failed to deliver certificates of stock to those who purchased shares in his concern. "Rosenwald, it is remembereS^is the same man who was held In the county jail here some months on a charge of crookedness in connection with a book agency he operated. The chief prosecuting witness did not ap? pear against him in court and the case was dismissed. He is a man of pleasing address and smooth man? ners and one would take him for a wealthy citizen from a mere judg? ment upon his appearance."?Char? lotte, X. C, Chronicle. YAWNING TO FILL THE HOL? LOWS. The secret of being well rounded and having the hollows filled out Is not to be padded with fat, but to have a good muscular development such as may be acquired by persist? ent exercise, says The Delineator for January. A perfect chest and bust depend upon the lung ?capacity. As singers advance In years they develop su? perb chests because of the tremendous lung expansion that the forced breathing cultivates. We will go in? to this some other time for those who wish it, now I want to ask my 1 readers if they know the value of I yawn and a good stretch for devel- I oping the chest, shoulders and neck? Xo? You've never thought of It, have you? Do so?and see what happens. All breathing exercises are based upon the yawn, and the yawn is na? ture's means of ventilating the lungs. Now, If we bring our imagination to plav upon the yawn, we can improve It. For instance, stimulate a yawn? let it be an exaggerated, long-drawn out yarn. The ichest elevates itself, the abdomen distends Itself, the should? ers raise themselves, the muscles In the neck grow tense, even the nos trials are dilated; in short, the en? tire breathing apparatus Is tremen? dously stimulated. Xow hold the Inhaled air while you throw the arms out and stretch! vigorously; bend the elbows until the clenched firsts rest on the shoulders, then flap the elbows back and forth while slowly exhaling the breath and relaxing generally. Xothlng can equal the yawn and stretch practised and repeated in this way to develop the muscles and fill out the hollows of the neck, shoulders and chest. King Leopold Dead. Brussels, Dec. 17.?-King Leopold died at 2:25 o'clock this morning, his aged and wasted body being unable to stand the strain put upon it. The collapse occurred suddenly and at a moment when the doctors seemingly had had the greatest hopes for his recovery. Throughout yesterday bulletins is? sued from the sick room Indicated progressive improvement. The bul? letin posted at 6:30 p. m. gave the king's temperature, pulse and respi? ration as practically normal. Ap? parently the drainage of the wound was perfect, as no fever was present, and during the day the king had been able to take nourishment.
