Mrs. Deacon Gets Fooled
Mrs. Deacon was defeated on the 22nd in her bold move to steal a march on her husband by a divorce suit in Paris. Mr. Deacon was on hand when the case came up and confronted his wife in the tribunal of the Seine. The president of the tribunal not only dismissed Mrs. Deacon's petition, but severely censured her for having made frivolous charges against her husband with the object of procuring a divorce, while herself under charges of the gravest character. The court then gave orders that the oldest child, now in a convent where it has been placed by Mrs. Deacon, should be delivered to Mr. Deacon.
The court's decree was a crushing blow for Mrs. Deacon, who seemed deeply affected and looked appealingly at her husband. It was all the more crushing because entirely unexpected. Mrs. Deacon had supposed that the utmost that would be done by the Seine tribunal in the event of adverse judgment would be to dismiss the case and leave the whole issue to be tried at Aix.
