A Wife’s Fortune Stolen

MRS. LEWIS MARSHALL, of Peoria, Ill., formerly Ollie Musgrove, of San Francisco, Cal., a bride of three weeks and an heiress, is left to-day penniless, her husband having deserted her, and taken with him her fortune of $9,000. He deceived her into believing that he had a good position with a firm in Peoria, and she deposited all her money in that city to his credit. The best thing that wives can do with their own money, such as this, is to keep full control of it themselves; for no husband who is capable of handling it will ever ask to have it under his control.
