Couple Venture Twice
Matrimony Won't Go
i
Mean Man Described
Here we have the meanest man in
the world, bar none. That is, it we all
look at the husband ot one Mary
Kline as she has described him In
her complaint tor divorce filed yester
day. Away back in 1900 Mary said
vet" to George B. Kilne't fervid dec
laration of love, and they were mar
ried in Spokane. After five years ot
not gettimj along together at all, they
were divorced. In 1916, at Vancouver,
they again doubled up in the canoe of
life, and according to her charges,
the second venture wat beset with
even more rongh going than the first.
They have tlx children, the two
eldest girls, Helen and Edna, aged 17
and 15, leaving the little home near
Molalla not long ago to seek a differ
ent life in the city. They secured work
at Portland, and the mother clalmt
that the father"! cruelty was the ag
ency driving them from home.
Among the multitude of charges
upon which the complaint Is based,
the plaintiff states that her husband
in exceedingly cruelboth to her. the
children, and to the livestock on their
farm. As an instance, the complaint
describes one event, which If It were
not for the seriousness of the case
at hand, would be laughable. She
charees. that upon endeavoring to
wean a calf, and forcing the animal
to drink from a bucket, with which It
was not familiar, the calf bit his
finger and as a result he flew into
an uncrontolable rage, and mauled
and beat the animal, and ended by re
taliating with a bite oa the salt's
note with his teeth. And the wife
sayt that tie often beat up tbe horses
and cattle, until he wag fatigued with
tbe exertion,
H made the children work harder
than their years justified, says Mrs
