SIXTY DAYS FOR A WIFE-BEATER
Brutally Beat Wife and Drove Family from Home.
In Spite of the Fact That His Wife Has Legal Separation from Him He Has Repeatedly Annoyed Her.
Convicted in the Police Court and Sentenced to the Penitentiary by Judge WHITE.
     William KEHOE was convicted in the Police Court to-day of brutally beating his wife and was sentenced by Judge WHITE to serve sixty days in the penitentiary. The assault committed by KEHOE was a particularly brutal one. The couple have been separated for sometime and the wife is now endeavoring to get a legal separation from her husband. It is not the first time that KEHOE has been sent to the penitentiary. When they were living together he frequently assaulted her and many a time the police were called to the home of the family to protect the woman from her husband.
     Mrs. Mary KEHOE has, since the separation, been living at 62 Berlin street and her husband has been boarding on Brown street. On more than one occasion he has gone to the home of his wife and annoyed her and whenever he could succeed in getting into the house he has assaulted her in a most brutal manner. Last Friday night while KEHOE was drunk he went to the home of his wife and before she had time to lock the door and prevent him entering he succeeded in getting in and he at once attacked her. She tried to get away from him, but he is a powerful and athletic man and she failed to escape from his grasp until he had dragged her through one of the rooms by the hair. The woman screamed for help, but if any of the neighbors heard her they were afraid to go to her assistance, knowing the character of KEHOE and fearing that he would attack them, should they endeavor to protect the woman.
     Mrs. KEHOE, however, finally managed to escape from her husband and she ran screaming into the street.  The children were obliged to flee from the home to escape the wrath of KEHOE. The latter then had full possession of the house and he proceeded to smash much of the furniture. Before he attacked his wife in the first place he threatened to kill her and when he caught her she feared that he intended from his actions to carry out his threat and she considered that she was particularly lucky in escaping from him.
     After holding the fort at the house for some time and threatening to kill anyone who tried to enter he concluded that he had had sufficient amusement for one night and he left the house and went to the place where he boarded.
     The following day Mrs. KEHOE called at police headquarters and swore out a warrant for the arrest of her husband. It was served on him on Saturday afternoon by Officers STEIN and MURRAY.
     After hearing the testimony in the case to-day Judge WHITE was about to pronounce sentence when KEHOE made a plea for mercy and said that he would promise to remain away from his wife if he were released.
Patrick DOBSON, who appeared for the prosecution in the case, stated to the court that KEHOE's actions in the past had demonstrated the fact that he is a dangerous man and that he should be sent to the penitentiary to show him that such actions as he had indulged in could not be tolerated. Judge WHITE then sentenced him to serve sixty days in the penitentiary.

SHOT IN THE LEG.
Mrs. NOTHAFT Accidentally Wounded at Her Home.
     Mrs. Minnie NOTHAFT, aged 35 years, who lives at No. 28 Weaver street, was accidentally shot in the leg by Louis NOTHAFT, her brother-in-law, who boards at the house. He was engaged in cleaning her revolver, which he did not know was loaded when it was accidentally discharged, the bullet striking Mrs. NOTHAFT in the right leg just above the knee.
     The Homeopathic Hospital ambulance was called and the woman taken to that institution. The bullet was imbedded in the (fl)esh and yesterday an X-ray photograph of the limb was taken and its location discovered.  It was removed this morning. The patient is doing well and no bad results are feared from the accident.
