When Charley Blmms, a teamster, of St. Johns, went home Wednesday night and found his wife gone to a dance he became Indignant. Then he became angry and the more he thought of It the angrier he became until he was real mad. He started over to the dance hall and accosted her on the way rn front of a neighbor's house. He talked violently and she talked back, and the words ended in a fight. He slapped her and she scratched and pulled hla hair and ac reamed. She swore to a complaint charging him with assault and battery and he appeared before Justice Clark of St. Johns yesterday and pleaded guilty. He was fined $10. the least penalty that could be Imposed. There was Intense excitement In the suburb when the. assault took place. There was talk of doing violence to the man who had struck his wife, but wiser council prevailed and the Incipient mob was dispersed before Injury wss done. The trouble originated over the charge of Slmma that his wife had be come "daffy" over dancing. Indeed he Inaisted that during the past three weeks she had spent only two nights st home. Simms and hla wife hsve sep arated because of the dance and the subsequent encounter. She vows that she wouldn't live with a man Who ob jects to her dancing and he swears that she couldn't coma back If she so desired. After visiting In Spokane for severs! weeks.
