POOL AND BILLIARD HALL.
Tonus; M Hall's New Kxuuluhment
Credit to City.
The work in connection with the
new billiard parlor of Brown A Co.
In the new Young A Hall block on
D'AnJou street Is not altogether fin
ished, but sufficient has been done
to show that when it Is completed It
will be without doubt the finest bil
liard and pool parlor in the state
of Oregon, outside of Portland.
The parlor Is 60x80 feet and It
now contains five pool and four bil
liard tables, all of the Brunawlck-
Balke made, which are acknowledged

palms placed between the arches and
hothouse flowers In the front windows.

that this city could support a much

lines. The business don since tbe
new place opened shows that bis
Judgment was right.

conducts the place are such that sev

there, and there la no time that any
lady could not visit the place, Just
the same as any atore, so strict are
the rules In force.
Mr. Brown wishes It to be under
stood that any one Is cordially In
Tited to visit his place at any time
and see the place and the playing,
even If they do not car to play
themselves, and It will be well worth
while for any on to do a.

GOULD'S INCOME DWINDLES.
Suit for Alimony Shows it Dropped
From $000,000 to V40O,00O.
NEW YORK, Oct. 17. That How
ard Gould's income formerly was
$600,000 a year, but since the de
pression of business of last year has
been reduced to $400,000 and that
be bas lost $300,000 this year, was
stated by his counsel In an argument
before Justice Blschoff today. These
figures were given ln opposing an ap
plication by Mrs. Katherlne Clem
mons Gould, who Is suing Mr. Gould
for divorce, for an increase In her
alimony from $25,000 a year to
$120,000. To support her application
Mrs. Gould asserted that her hus
band's income was $600,000 a year.
Delancy Nlcholl, counsel for Mr.
Gould, made the assertion that Mrs.
Gould's course for many years has
been one of unbridled extravagance
and last year she received from ber
husband $220,000. Counsel for Mr.
Gould declared that In 1906 Mr.
Gould told his wife be would separ
ate from her unless she abandoned
her habits, but that Mrs. Gould de
clined to do so.
Clarance J. Shearn. counsel for
Mrs. Gould, said that Mr. Gould had
tried to "starve" his wife out In
Castle Gould and had filled the house
with spies, who watched her every
movement, compelling her to remove
to a hotel.
Mr. Nicho'.l retorted that in seven
years from 1899 to 1906, Mr. Gould
gave his wife $766,500 and that Mrs.
Gould had saved $200,000 of it.
Decision on the increase of ali
mony was reserved.
