! cmcuunoK. 3!WILL NOT FORGIVELandolin Munz Refuses to Receive His Wife.SHE WENT WITH A DRUGGIST.Three Months Ago Mrs. Mnnz and Drag-gist Ohesley Skipped the Town and Now They Return—The IndignantHusband Wants a Divorce.I never want to see her face again.She Is dead to me forever.This was the manner in which J^andolinMunz of Roslindale received the news ofhis wife’s reappearance in Boston from a Post reporter last night.On the morning of Saturday, Jan. 23, Mrs, Munz, the wife of the proprietor of the Roslindale Hotel, left her home with a prettily moustached young druggist of the same village, Arthur A. Chesley.Since that time they have been in the [ Queen’s Dominion. Monday night they secured passage on the steamer Halifax, and yesterday afternoon Chesley and Mrs. Munz arrived at the wharf on Commercial street.Where they went and when they made every effort to keep secret, and succeededin a measure.Chesley tried to shake Mrs. Munz when he came to Boston, but she would not have it. Her reason was that the husband with a broken home at Roslindale would not take her back.She has often regretted her ill-advised step, and although she loves the exdruggist of Ward 23, still she realizes how she had wronged her husband.This fact dawned upon her mind when two weeks after she had skipped the town, her sister, who was a permanent resident at her home, was told by the indignant husband that she wras not wanted there.The sister went to Halifax to see the runaway wife and persuaded her to return. Efforts have been made since to patch up the affair, and Landolin Munz was disposed to give in, but the wife had become tired of Chesley, so the attempt at reconciliation was given up.Last Sunday a brother of Mrs. Munz called at the house and had a talk with the hotel proprietor, but he would not listen to any proposition looking toward a reconciliation.Chesley and Mrs. Munz travelled under the name of A. J. Bailey and wife, and on the boat they attracted much attention by their actions.A Post reporter a few days after the elopement asked Munz if he would take her back.He said: Yes, the sooner the better. It was for the sake of the 5-year-old boy which she had also deserted that he saidthis.Now it is a different story.“I don’t want to have anything to do with her. The boy has forgotten that she ever lived. As for Chesley, if I see him, it will not be a pleasant meeting, I assure you. My boy has forgotten her and I am trying to.Since they have been down there I have j procured a photograph of both, with their k I autographs, and I have instructed my j lawyer, John P. Wyman, to make an ap-' ! plication for a divorce, which he will do las soon as possible. It has been a hard t case for me to lose the woman I loved and k respected, but such is fate, and I propose : to make the best of it.; j Chesley proposes to settle down in Bos-* | ton, and when Mrs. Munz is divorced they J | will be married. That is the plan he unfolded to a friend in Halifax.Mrs. Munz, on being told her husband’:, ultimatum, was heard to remark:r' i If he does not want me to come back, ; that's all right. I love Arthur and I propose to stand by him.
