Fake Marriage
Claim to Estate
PORTLAND, Oct. i. Jeanne Des
esmps, stilt petite and vivacious
Hums confessing to 50 years, made
bar first court appearance yester
4ir in the gallant legal battle she
is waging for the $70,000 estate of
th late Ernest Descamps, with
wlom she said she had lived as wife
for tea years. Attorneys for the es
ttt and the administrator, Hector
Moomsl, caused her to he called to
court that tiiey might take her de
position. Toe story of the woman was not
without its touch of the dramatic as
h told of a fake wedding ceremony
In Vancouver, the discovery that she
was not truly married when another
woman sued her "husband" for
breach of promise, the flight from
Portland, the visit of Deaeampa to
ier home in Grand Rapids, Mich.,
and the receipt of news of his mys
terious disappearance.
Ernest Descamps, It will be remem
bered, dropped from sight on Febru
try 5, 1920, and has never been seen
since by Portland acquaintances,
leaving real estate and personal
property aggregating more than 70,-

000 in value. A few days after his
disappearance , grewsome remnants
of a human torso were found in
widely scattered vicinities In Port
land. No definite identification ever
was made but they were believed to
be the remains of Descamps. No
clew to the murderer has ever come
to light.
On February 11, 1920, a petition
for appointment of administrator
was filed by Moumal, friend of Des
camps. Many months later, the com
plaint of Madame Descamps was fil
ed. Even though the marriage cere
mony was staged and a fraud the
woman declares that the common
law made her the lawful wife of Des
camps, and It Is on this basis that her
suit for the estate is made. Mou
mal contends that the only legal
heirs are some first cousins of Des
camps residing in France. The ad
ministrator Is represented by C. Hen
ri Labbe and the woman by Martin
L. Pipes.

STORK 5
The Board of Fire Commissioners
of the City of Rostburg, met in the
Firemen's hall at 1 o'clock last ev
ening, to consider the matter of issu
ing a permit to Herman Marks au
thorizing the repair of the building
at 148 N. Jackson street, which was
damaged by fire on September 23.
The following members of the
Board of Fire Commissioners were
present at the meeting: Louis Kohl
hagen, president- M. F. Rice. 8. K.
Sykea, James M. Fletcher, Jr., secre
tary; also Mr. Marks, owner of the
building, and his attorney, B. U. Ed-
ay.
The board of Fire Commissioners
previously had denied to Mr. Marks
permission to repair the building and
had ordered it to be removed. Mr.
Marks appealed the order of the
Hoard of Fire Commissioners to a
board of arbitration, which found
the damage by fire to be ten neroent.
and the depreciation of the building
to be fully within the provisions of
tne ordinance.
Mr. Marks and his attorney ap
peared before the board and asked
that a permit be granted to Mr.
Marks to repair his bunding. Attor
ney Eddy argued that under the pro
visions or the ordinance the board
of arbitrators were authorized only
to appraise the amount of damage
done by fire, which was estimated at
only ten per cent of the value of the
building, and not of the deprecia
tion, (or decay) which they estimat
ed at forty per cent or more. He
also stated that a section of the or
dinance would be held unconstitu
tional by the courts as it granted a
property owner a right of appeal from
decision of the Board of Fire Com
missioners in case of damage by fire,
but granted no right of apnea! from
the decision of the board In the case
of decay or depreciation. This wap
also the opinion of City Attorney
Wlmberly and of M. F. Riee. member
of the board and also an attorney.
After a thorough discussion of the
matter, the Board of Fire Commis
sioners decided It wu!d be controll
ed to grant Mr. Marks a permit for
the repair of the building and asked
that he submit plans of repair and
If they are satisfactory to tne board
permit will be granted to him.
The Board of Commissioners also
approved changes made In the Con
stitution and by-laws of the Rose-
burg Fire Department.
