wife through ber open bedroom win
dow is tbe newest wrinkle In Chic
ago divorce court procedure.
This antiserenade injunction will
be tiled today before Judge Honore
by Attorney Sydney B. Meyer, at the
request of Mrs. Anna Prlebe Ryan
wbo objects, she says, to her bus
band, Charles F. Ryan, trying to win
back her love with bis melodious
voice and ragtime songs at 1 a.
After a separation of several
months from her husband Mrs. Ryan
decided to apply for a divorce, and
yesterday Attorney Meyer filed the
petition, in which Ryan was charged
with extreme cruelty.
Mrs. Ryan later went to Mr. Mey
er's office In the American Trust ft
Savings building and asked if steps
could not be taken to keep her hus
band away from her home.
"He sings so often to me," she
said, "I can hear bim in my sleep.
Once I had him arrested, but he
pleaded with me so hard, Baying he
did It only to make me love him
agala, tbat I forgave bim."
' The attorney prepared the injunc
tion papers, which will be offered
Judge Homore today, restraining
Ryan from approaching, talking to,
telephoning, writing, serenading or
in any other manner molesting his
wife.
"What does he usually sing to
you?" Mrs. Ryan was asked.
"I'm afraid he does not know but
three songs, and those are "Home,
Sweet Home," '"I'm Afraid to Go
Home In the Dark," and "Come
Down, My Love," she replied.
"Why, It's Just terrible," she con
tinued. "He comes to the house late
and sings and sings until he arouses
all the neighbors. One night while
he stood singing under my window
they bombarded bim with shoes,
brushes almost anything they could
throw."
'But how did you come to marry
him?" was Inquired.
'It happened so quickly it is hard
to tell, I met hi mat the home of a
friend. The marriage occurred here
Chicago two weeks after I had
been Introduced to him.
"He must still love you."

his drive me frantic; and he was so
