PROSECUTION IS THREAT Violators Will Be Adjudged in Con tempt and District Attorney Will Act Besides Judge Makes Meaning Clear. After hearing six divorces yesterday, Judpre Morrow made formal announce ment that persons who are divorced in his court and remarry within six months afterward will be punished for contempt. Their cases will be reported to the IMstrict Attorney for further action, besides. Judge Morrow made himself clear tipon that point. Heretofore the re striction upon the marriage of divorced persons within the time specified has not always been strictly obeyed, though It has been the law. The court did not grrant decrees in any of the. cases he heard yesterday, although it is prob able that he will grant all of them after he has checked over the evidence. He warned the plaintiffs not to consider themselves divorced until he had taken final action. Clarence K. Littlepage had .a habit of abusing his wife on Christmas day, according to her story. She was mar ried to him at Powell Valley, January 17, 18S8. But for 20 years she was sub jected to drunken abuse, she said. She started divorce proceedings, but dis missed them twice on her husband's promise to do better. On Christmas day, 1907, she had returned to live with her husband after an absence of a year, but she said he beat her in the face, and threatened to take her life. "He would take off his hat and hit me in the face." she declared, "and sometimes used the razor strop." Wife's Keepsakes Burned. On Christmas, 1908, she said, he threw a part of her wearing- apparel out of the house, and burned her keepsakes, breaking the furniture and calling her names in the presence of the children. He had a hammer in his hand, with which he had been breaking the furni ture, and ordered her to leave, which Fhe did. They divided the furniture -which was lefts but after she had moved, her husband brought a replevin action against her and. took it away from her. Maud Littlepage, the complaining wife, was very nervous as she took the witness stand, and Judge Morrow had cleared the courtroom of a curious crowd of men Just before hearing her testimony. Joseph Rove is a drunkard and a petty gambler, according to the testi mony of Minnie Bove. She was married to him in Minnesota, November 18, 3 903. The wlf e is now cashier at the Vienna Bakery.

They lived in Se attle six months afterward, coming Jrom there to Portland. She loft the Van Noy Hotel, whore they were room ing, to go down town one day, she said, nd when she returned found her hus "band had taken his personal belong ings and left. Irene M. Wymore testified that her liusband. Walter S. Wymore. went home drunk January 22. and threw a chair t her, threatening that he would mur der her and then commit suicide. She bad forgiven his misdeeds frequently, she said, on his promise to do better, :but to no purpose. They were married October 3. 1903. She asked for $25 a month alimony. W. E.

WIRE XOT HIGHLY IXSCTiATED Jury Hears Suit of Guardian of Youth Killed by Electricity. Frederick Bater is suing the Portland Hallway, Light & Power Company for J7600. The trial is on before a jury in kludge Bronaugh's department of the Cir cuit Court. Bater is administrator of the state of John Bater, a 14-year-old lad who was killed by electricity August 30, 3908. when, after eating his lunch he nepped out on the fire escape of the Western Baking Company's plant at Twelfth and GUsan streets, and came 'In contact with a high voltage wire be longing to the defendant company. It Is She contention of the plaintiff that the wire, carrying 10.000 volts, was not prop erly insulated. J. W. Aspland, a lineman in the em ploy of the company, testified that this -wire was insulated In the same manner .s all high voltage wires. None of them Jias insulation which will prevent electro, cution, he said, but only a wrapping of cotton dipped in a solution put on to .protect the wires from the weather. Judge Bronaugh denied a motion by Eater's attorneys to amend the com plaint as to the distance between the building and the wire, the complaint stating that it was three feet, eight inch es. They maintained that the distance -was less than this, that at the .time of the Coroner's Inquest, when the distance was measured, the wire had been "kicked over" from one glass on the crossarra to anotheu farther from the building. The judge also denied a motion by counsel for the power company that the Jury be instructed to return a verdict for the defendant. The judge said that as the company had admitted that the electricity coursing through the wire was sufficient to kill a person, it was a ques tion whether there was negligence in placing the wire o close to the build ing as to be.' dangerous. The case prob ahly will go to the jury today. MRS. PATTOX LOSES HER" CASE Jury's Verdict Exonerates Owner of Auto That Ran Her Down. A verdict In favor of S.

Packers Pay That Price for Three Carloads Light Trading in Other Lines. That the position of the cattle market continue strong was shown -by the sale of three carloads of top quality steers at the stock yards yesterday at $5.75. This Is an advance of B cents over th6 former top quo tation. Other sales of steers ranged from $4.63 to $o.lo. No business was reported outside of the cattle line. . The report has reached the outside press that cattle could be bought In the John Day Valley for $5 a head, this condition belnft due to the scarcity of feed. Accord ing; to the Baker City Democrat, there Is not a Vord ofx truth In this report, and, as Mr. Bayley. cashier of the Grant County Bank, states, ' If there are any snaps like that there are plenty of people here who would pick them up. There Is ltttle danger of the loss of stock from the . scarcity of feed. The Winter has been severe, it is true, but with any kind of an ordinary .break-up there will be little loss of stock. Those who are short of hay are Isolated cases, and it is by no means a general condition. Receipts at the Portland, yards yesterday were 233 cattle, 47 calves, 201 sheep and 418 hogs.

The steamer Shoshone cleared at the custom house today for San Francisco with a There Is but one way to cure an old sore or chronic ulcer, and that ia to remove the cause that produces and keeps it open. No matter where located, any sore that remains until it becomes chronic doe3 so because of impure blood; the circulation constantly discharges its polluted matter into the place and it is impossible for nature to heal the sore. S. S. S. heals sores and ulcers by purifying the blood. It removes every trace of taint or impurity from the circulation, and thus completely does away with the cause. No local application reaches below the infected fiesh. at the spot, and for this reason can have no curative effect on a sore or ulcer; while such treatment is being used alone, the germs, and impurities are constantly increasing in the blood and the sore is bound to grow worse. When S.S.S. has cleansed the blood and enriched and purified the circulation the place begins to take on a more healthy appearance, the different symptoms show improvement, the flesh around the ulcer gets firm, new skin and tissues are formed, and aided by pure, rich blood, nature provides a perfect and lasting cure. Under the tonic and blood-purifying effects of S.S.S., the system is built up, and those whose health has been impaired by the drain and worry of an old sore will be greatly benefited by its use.

You don't need to be a trial horse" for anybody, but it is a safe conclusion that the man who shuts his eyes and buys a horse on the seller a estimate will not always get what he pays for. The same is true In selecting a physician. There may be plenty of good ap ples in the "top talk layer," but you can't always be sure the wtiole barrel is sound without looking through them, and that is what you ought to do with every proposition. Tou csrtalnly can make no mis take by letting a doctor cure you first and then pay him for "goods delivered." Many doctors advertise this plan, but are not always sin cere In the proposition. I advertise not a dollar need be paid unless cured, and "that goes." I correct unhealthy conditions the same as a shoemaker would mend a pair of shoes. I made men strong enough to succeed because my whole time and study for years have been in this one line of thought, and my knowledge and experience have brought me to a point of. proflclency that the average doctor has found it Tmpossibls to reach In the general practice of medicine and surgery. These ait the ailments that wreck men: Blood Poison, Varicose Veins and the Af ter math of Infectious Ailments These are the things in the life of men that MAIM, CRIPPLE AND KILL, and the thing that gives them more power than they would have otherwise is neglect and Indifference of the Individual. Neglect rusts the mind, is the mother of poverty, and the root of all evil. Habitual neglect shows not only a weak head, but a faint heart. If you intend to succeed in life get "The Today Habit" of doing your duty. I want every man who feels that he Is not up to the proper stand ard of health to come to my office and have a confidential, heart-to-heart talk with me. This will cost you absolutely nothing, and you do not place yourself under the slightest obligation to take treatment from me by so doing any more than you would be expected to buy a suit of clothes that might not suit you simply because you had asked the price. I will cheerfully give you any Information concerning your case free of cost, and If your condition Is one that I consider curable I will make price and terms tlrat will unquestionably be perfectly satisfactory to you.
