TACOMA. Wash., March (Special.) When Mrs. Bertha M. Bower, the Puyal lup authoress, deserted her home, husband and children six months ago, and left a note stating that she was ''drifting with the tide," she apparently told the truth. It was not. however, on the cold salt seas, but the more troubled and tempestuous one of matrimony to which she must have had reference. This was made evident when she ap peared before Judge Snell today, presented an application for a divorce, went on the stand and told her story, which was cor roborated by other witnesses, and when an answer was presented by the husband, admitting all of the allegations and ac knowledging service, she was granted a decree of divorce and the custody of her two minor sons. By the same decree a daughter. Bertha Grace, was awarded to the care and custody of Mrs. Hattie M. Bower, mother of the defendant In the divorce case. In the complaint Mrs. Bower alleged that ever since their marriage they had been constantly quarreling and that their temperaments were such that they were absolutely incompatible, and that it would be a sin and a crime for them to longer attempt to live together as man and wife. The defendant was represented In court by counsel and made no defense. Mrs. Bower mysteriously returned last night, but refuses to say where she has been.
