Michael and Ann Ruane were married by Alderman Kasson on Sept. 2, 1898 and went to live in Jessup. Two months afterward, the wife alleges, he began abusing her and would leave home for days at a time, making no provision whatever for her comfort and welfare. Mrs. Ruane also alleges that Michael is addicted to drink, and during the blizzard last March he chased her through Jessup with a knife in his hand, threatening to kill her.
When the temperature was below zero the man drove her from the house and it was necessary on one occasion for her to find refuge in a coal shed. Many a night she spent with her mother when the ungallant husband put her out of the house and now she seeks
legal separation.

P. J. RUANE ASKED TO BE THE CASHIER
Deputy City Treasurer Wanted by the Proposed North Scranton Bank.
Deputy City Treasurer P. J. Ruane is being discussed as the likely cashier of the proposed North Scranton bank. It is understood he has been invited to take the place but hesitates to leave the position in which he has served so long and successfully, it is to be hoped for the city's good that Mr. Ruane will continue in the treasurer's office. He has the city's financial affairs at his fingers’ ends and when it comes to a question of nice financiering in emergencies which often arise; his suggestions invariably prove of great value.
No legislation bearing on municipal or school district finances is projected without Mr. Ruane's advice first helm; sought, and it is quite safe to say hint practically all such legislation now on the city's books would find him its father if it went to trace its actual
parentage.
Mr. Ruane is also accredited with being one of the most expert accountants in the city. Ho can rend a column of figures quite as readily as another could read a paragraph in it newspaper and be has the book-keeping of the office so systematized that with in five minutes after the office closes the books are balanced and everything ready to "be locked up for the night.
