March 7th 1906. W. A. Buchanan,, Treasurer Benton Co. Or J For Convng Term of Court New Cases Were Filed Yesterday. The coming term of the circuit court promises to break all records in the matter of divorces. Two new cases were filed' yesterday, which in addition to the four al ready mentioned in the Times raises the total up 10 six. In view of the fact that it is less than three months since there was a term of circuit court, the grists at the di vorce mill show more than the usual amoutt of domestic infelicity. One of the new cases is that of Mrs- E. W. Fawver versus John W. Fawver. The defendant is the man who eloped with 18 year-old Lilly Howard, residing a few miles east of Monroe. They left their homes at midnight and journeyed down the Willamette in a row, boat to Salem where they were appre hended by ' the authorities and Fawver put under $500 bonds on a charge of adultery. This happen ed December nth, and the incident is cited as grounds for the divorce. The wife asks for $30 a month for the maintenance of herself and the four children in the family. In the other divorce filed yester day V. R. Moore, is plaintiff, and the wife, Mrs. M. A. Moore is de fendant. The charge is similar to that in the Fawver case, the co-respondent being Charles Mulkey. An arrest of Mrs. Moore on a war rant from Linn county, transpired Saturday, but the casebasbeen dis missed, the husband having been the only person who can appear as prosecuting witness. He .declines to prosecute on a criminal- charge rand is content with the divorce proceeding. - , Gordon Hats are within the reach every man in this town.
