Penny Earle, the artist, who sent
his wife to France, her old home
to secure a divorce so that he
might marry another woman,
received a sorry welcome when
he returned to his home in Mon-
roe, N. Y., last night after bid-
ding his wife farewell at the
steamer.
Earle was met by a crowd of
villagers as he stepped from the
train, who at first insulted and
hooted him and then pulled him
from his carriage and dragged
him through the mud of the
streets.
Earle courageously faced his
tormentor, exhorted the
in an attempt to vindicate him-
self, and then, goaded tor an
instant by insults of the people,
he seized his carriage whip and
slashed at the crowd. A man

and bystanders state, struck the
artist a stinging blow.
Further trouble was prevented
by the appearance officers who
forced Earle to drive to his home,

receipts have increased to some
extent. Jobbers of dry goods
report sales slightly in excess

prices are fair- In milling there
has been a good, early trade and
a favorable prospect for a

their preparation for the
next spring season and will ex-
tend the territory covered. They
are now closing a favorable sea-
son, with sales equal to expect-
Building is less active
than for several months past and
building material has declined in
price. Retail trade is at the
usual end-season dullness. Some
are displaying fall styles, but
sales are only nominal- Reports
