DIVORCES GIVEN TO FOUR
Mrs. Anna Mahon Claims Her Hus
band Married Her for Her Moneyf
and Will Not Work Charges
of Cruelty Were Made.
Four divorces were granted by Judge
Frazer yesterday.
On complaint of Esther I. Adler the
bonds of matrimony existing between
her and Isaac L. Adler were' dissolved.
They were married in Portland in April,
3900. Mrs. Adler testified that she gave
her husband money to embark in busi
ness, but he failed. He did not sup
port her and was abusive, she claimed.
Minnie Louise White was divorced
from Elmer Ellsworth White. She tes
tified that he frequently told her ho
would repeat the Belding murder act.
On September 15. 1904, so she said, lie
struck her a violent blow, cutting one
of her ears and bruising her temple
and head. She lied in her night dress
Into the street to seek the protection
of a police officer. On another occa
sion he struck her and pulled her by
the hair along the floor. She then left
him, going to her father's home. Mrs.
"White further testified that ner hus
band has an ungovernable temper, lie
frequently threatened to kill .her, and
she was afraid to live with him. The
litigants were married in Moscow,
Idaho, in 1S92. They have thr;c chil
dren. White Is employed at the Bakvr
Theater and. among his other duties,
operates the moving-picture mufhino.
Two of the children, boys aged 9 r.nd
31 years, have been working at the
theater, one as an usher and the other
distributing programmes. They attend
school by day. The father has had thJ
custody of the children, but as I ho de
cree of the court gave them to the
mother. Judge Frazer ordered Uie
Sheriff to turn them over to her. An
order was also made requiring White
to i:ontribute $7 per week for the sup
port of the children. White's weekly
stipend is 520.
Married for Her Money.
A sensational story was told by Anna
E. Mahon, who was granted a divnrcn
from J. T. Mahon, and was allowed to
resume her maiden name, Johnson. Mrs.
Mahon testified tliat she wa." married
to the defendant at Vancouver. Wash..
Ocfober 22. 1904. She had been ac
quainted with him for a year previous.
and he represented to her that he was
a man of good habits and had a good
position in San Francisco. At the time
of the wedding Mrs. Mahon said Mm
had $1200. Soon after the marrlago
she learned that her husband had no
position, would not work and evident
ly had married her to get what money
she had. When she rerused to give him
money he forced her to do so by beat
ing her. lie compelled her to go to the
London &; San Francisco Bank and
draw money for him. which she d'd
to avoid a scene with him on the street,
so she said.
He accused her of flirting with a man
at the theater and choked her to forco
a confession from her. and threatened
to choke her to death if she did not
admit it. Deeming it unsafe to live
with him, she left the fellow in Novem
ber, 1904. when Mahon went to Salt
Lake City.
Got Married Too Soon.
Rosetta Carter, formerly Rosetla
Ogle, nee Pool, was divorced rrom Alvln
C. Carter because she was married to
him 12 days after she obtained a di
vorce from J. H. Ogle. The divorce
from Ogle was granted in Portland.
September 18, 1895, and she was mar
ried to Carter September 20 at Van
couver, and lived with him until Janu
ary 10, 1905. The law provides that six
months must elapse before a divorced
person may marry again. Mrs. Carter
said she was ignorant of the law when
uhe took Carter for a husband, and
-upon ascertaining the fact that th
marriage was void ceased to live with
him. Under the statute the marrlag
Is void and Judge Frazer declared it so.
Louise M. Mackey, who has sued
William C. Mackey for a divorce, yes
terday filed a petition asking that her
husband be required to pay her $25 per
month and $250 for suit money. She
alleges that he is able to pay, as ha

the value of $3000.

SUES HUSBAND FOR SUPPORT
Mrs. Drake Also Tells How She
Agreed to a Separation for $75.
It developed at the trial of the suit of
Matilda Drake against her husband, F.
P. Drake, an employment agent on North
Third street, for support, that Mrs. Drake,
when on a visit in Illinois last Summer,
wrote her husband affectionate letters,
and in response Drake wrote telling her
he had applied for -a. divorce. Mrs. Drake
returned, Drake induced her to sign an
agreement releasing him from all matri
monial obligations in consideration of $75.
Then Drake offered to obtain her a place
cooking and a position for her daughter
Hazel, by a former husband, and told
her the employment fee" would be $2.50.
Drake wrote a letter to W. Green, a
friend, telling about the place he had for
hfs wife, concluding as follows: "I hope
you will explain to Mrs. D. that the office
fee will be $2.50 for her and Hazel."
Judge Frazer scored Drake for abandon
ing his wife and then having the nerve
to try to charge her $2.50 to get her a
Job as a cook. Drake explained that he
had a partner in business, and it would
not be fair to rob his partner.
The litigants were married about five
years ago, and for a while lived on a
farm near Vancouver, Mrs. Drake fur
nishing the money to, stock the place.
They had a quarrel. which Mrs. Drake
says was only of a trivial character. In
June last she went East to bring her
daughter here. Drake testifies that at
that time they agreed to separate forever.
Mrs. Drake testified that this was posi
tively false. She merely went away on a
visit and had to borrow money from rel
atives to get back.
During her absence Drake wrote her a
letter containing the following statement:
"I will tell you what I am doing and ex
pect to do in the future. I have com
menced suit for a divorce and I expect
to be a single man and you a single
woman within a month, so you had bet
ter make your plan?."
Mrs. Drake consulted a lawyer, who
sent Drake a letter threatening him with
prosecution if he attempted to get a di
vorce. Mrs. Drake returned to Portland.
Drake says he will furnish her with a
home If she will live with him as his wife.
Mrs. Drake answers that she will do so
if he is in earnest about It, and furnishes
her a home she can live in. She jays she
doesn't want to have to work over a
washtub and slave for a living. Drake
replies that he Is a poor man, and was
poor when she married him.
B. S. Pague appeared as attorney for
Mrs. Drake and A. H. Tanner for the
defense. Arguments will be made before
the court today.
New Charge In Arson Case.
An information against A. B. Coon. B.
Miller and J. B. Batchelor. charging them
with arson In setting fire to a building at
the southwest corner of Fifth and Madi
son streets, was filed by District Attorney
Manning In the State Circuit Court yes
terday afternoon. The fire occurred on
the night of November 6. 1904, but did
not prove serious. Coon, Miller and Batch
elor were Indicted by the grand jury. The
specific charge was that they set fire to
the dwelling of another. A demurrer to
the indictment . was sustained because
Coon, the lessee, lived in the house, and
It was therefore not the dwelling of an
other, although the property of another,
F. Westenfelder.
The information accuses the trio of ma
liciously burning and attempting to burn
the property of another.
Administrator for Wilson JEstate.
On petition of Edward Holman and
Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie. Henry Hewitt
was appointed, in the County Court
yesterday, administrator of the estate
of the late Arthur Wilson, deceased.
The estate Is valued at $500. The only

Legal Jottings.
H. J. Slrard filed a petition for a writ
of mandamus in the State Circuit Court
yesterday against N. W. Rountree to
compel him to deliver the property of
the International Manufacturing and
Mining Company. The property consists
of the exclusive right to make and sell
the Rex nut-lock in the United States,
Canada, Great Britain and other coun
tries of the world; also deeds to four
lots In Ilolladay's addition and other
property valued at $465. Slrard says
in his petition that at a meet
ing of the board of trustees of the
company in Washington. D. C, held on
January 10. 1905, he was elected treas
urer of the company. Rountree was
the former treasurer, and Slrard al
leges tiiat he lias refused to deliver the
property and documents under his con
trol. Judge George set the case for
hearing February 15.
Eight Japs and a Chinaman, arrested
by Sheriff Word on September 27, for
playing stud-poker, pleaded guilty be
fore Judge George yesterday and were
fined $10 each.
District Attorney Manning yesterday
filed ar information against Smith St.
Clair, familiarly known as "the King
of Coontown," otherwise "Dollar Bill,"
charging him with running a baw
dyhouse known as the Little Paris.
St. Clair is at liberty on his own recog
nizance. He yesterday signed an agree
ment which he delivered to Sheriff
Word to run a respectable house'in the
future. St. Clair will probably plead
guilty and pay a fine.
