V VJVJ 'IE COMES BACK Mrs. Charlotte Hoover Re turns to Husband. WILL DROP DIVORCE SUIT Asks Court for Separation From Husband In Afternoon, but by Mght Agrees to With draw Proceedings. DMertin hM- home In the Sheffield apartments Saturday, her nunband aearcn 1nt the city lor her and offering a re Svard for her discovery on Sunday, filing a auit for divorce Monday, returning home Monday night and agreeing to withdraw divorce proceedings today these are the scenes In the little do mestic comedy, or tragedy rather, of Mrs. Charlotte Hoover and her husband. U J. Hoover. The husband said last night that the suit would be quashed today and that the disagreeable incident was over. "My wife has been nervous and 111." said Mr. Hoover last night, "and this condition caused her to leave home and bring this suit for divorce. She haa come back home and has agreed to-drop the whole thing. She had no cause to com plain of her treatment and had she not been ill she would not have done such a thing." The complaint In the divorce case filed by Mrs. Hoover's attorneys alleges cruel and inhuman treatment and was filed shortly after noon yesterday. The plaln tix represented that life with Hoover had become an unbearable burden be cause of his 111 treatment of her and that she 6?slred the marital bonds severed. The happy outcome of the Hoovers' troubles clears up what was believed to be the mysterious disappearance of the woman, who left home wearing six dia mond rings and carrying almost 1000 in money. Instead of meeting with violence from thieves, as was feared, or trying to commit suicide because of her trou bles, real or Imagined, Mrs. Hoover went to the home of a friend in the city Sat urday afternoon and remained there that night. Sunday Mr. Hoover offered $50 for news of his wife, but the city, police could not earn the reward. Yesterday Hoover was served with the papers in his wife's divorce action and he forthwith hunted up her attorneys If 4 4, A I. . . . . i.

TWO ARE HURT IN WRECK Conductor Jumps and Saves His Iiife, "While Motorman Is Thrown From Box Accident Due to. Flimsy Timber Work. More than 100 feet of trestle" suddenly collapsed and precipitated an entire train of seven loaded cars of dirt a distance of 18 feet into the gully yesterday after noon about 4 o'clock, on East Third street, between East Washington and East Alder streets. At this point the Pacific Bridge Company is making a fill extending on East Third street from East Morrison street to East Washington street. For this purpose a temporary trestle has been erected, on which trains are being hauled with dirt and gravel. On the loaded train when it fell were Jonas Young, motorman, of 781 Savier street, and W. W. Witherbe, of 800 Lowell street, Montavilla. ' Both are em ployes of the Pacific Bridge Company. Loaded trains had passed over the same spot where the accident occurred many times during the day without developing the fact that the structure was unsafe. Motorman Toung backed his train in from East Morrison Btreet, he being at the rear end of the train and Conductor Witherbe being at the front. When they reached the trestle between Bast Wash ington and East Alder streets, at a point little more than half way across, the tim bers instantly and without any warning cracks or creaks toppled over and the train and its crew of two were hurled into the gulch. Witherbe, being out on an open car, saw his danger before the tons of earth and metal struck the ground and jumped. His action no doubt saved his Ufa. tar Dortiaa of the train where he had been riding was telescoped into a mass of wreckage when it struck. He escaped with a few bruises and a bad wrench to one of his legs. He was con veyed to his home. Young, however, was not quite so lucky. Hto duty as motorman confined him in a little box-like inclosure on the motor car, and he was unable to get. out in time to Jump. He was thrown out through the doorway to his work box and struck his head on the sill as he went flying through the air. He landed on a pile of dirt out side without further injury. His wound In the head proved to be a serious one, and he was taken to Dr. Alan Welch Smith In the Red Cross ambulance. After his wound was dressed he was also re moved to bis home. Some of the cars in falling broke their connecting pins and turned a somersault in the descent, while others turned turtle. The damage to the cars and the trestle work will probably amount to J1000. The accident was due to the flimsy construc tion of the timber work. Those in charge of the work for the, bridge company said that the large piling suporting the track had merely been stood on end and had not been permanently fastened, because it was planned to fill in about these sup ports at once. Instead of making the fill at once, however, it was used for many trips where the loaded cars bore great weight. i MUST PAY OR GO "DRY" Tacoma Judge Rules It Is Unlawful to Sell Liquor Without License. TACOMA, Wash., Aug. 24. (Special.) "A mighty thirst" will reign In the prom inent clubs In and about the city for some time to come. Judge Reid today overruled the demurrers filed by the clubs to the informations filed against them by the Prosecuting Attorney. This means that the clubs will either have to stop selling liquor or pay a license fee every year of J1O00, and the amount of in toxicants sold by - the clubs does not amount to nearly enough to enable them to pay this fee. The clubs affected are the Union Club. University Club, Com mercial Club, Country Club and the Elks Lodge. The bars have been maintained as a convenience for members.

One of the unique features of the coming regatta will be held at the City Hall on next Sat urday afternoon, when the members of the Scandinavian singing societies, who are to participate in the sangerfest on Saturday and Sunday, will present Queen Hattie with a golden cross of honor, a facsimile of the emblems which In olden times were bestowed by the Viking mon archs upon their war chiefs on their re turn from winning any signal victories.
