The attention of Mayor Bryan was
absorbed yesterday in the police court
In the tale of woe recited by Cora Car
roll, a colored woman. .The woman's
husband, Albert Carroll, was the de
fendant in the case and the technical
charge was disorderly conduct but the
thing the woman wanted to develop
wa ..the man's general : cussedness.
Evidently the cup of conjugal happi
ness had -all been spilled out, leaving
nothing but the dregs.
In giving her testimony the woman
stood at the table before the mayor
and told a long tale of the woes she
had suffered at the bands of her hus
band. She said that her life had been
threatened and that she hated to have
night come for tear that he taking
advantage of the quiet hour might as
sail her and do her great bodily harm.
Her troubles seemed to multiply as
she went on and It became clear that
Carroll was a bad man. He sat and
listened to the arraignment of .his
character with stolid Indifference. He
admitted the woman's statement that
he shot a man in Kinston the wo
man's brother and that he had never
been arrested for the crime. The
wound was not serious. Various'other
things were charged against him.
Carroll's statement shewed that love
for his wife was not any noticeable
element In his thoughts. He thought
it strange why she should make, ob
jections when he paid attention to
other women and said she was jealous.
Both of them seemed to be pretty
much "sot against the othetnut the
preponderance of the evidence was
against the man. The mayor re served
his opinion and in the meantime com
municated by phone with the chief of
