One man was SJ years oiu and the other T8. James Amis, the elder or tne two, sas that he lived In his little cottage near Riverview Cemetery until two days ago. when it caught fire and was Durnea to the ground. He slept under a tree near his destroyed home Thursday night, he said. He asserted also that he had eaten nothing for three days. tmltn saia ne had been employed at various odd Jobs at Riverview Cemetery. He arose yesterday morning from tne Dlace beneath the tree where he had slept a,nd walked down to the cemetery, where he hoped to find friends In the Immediate neighborhood who would give hira food and help him to reach the city. He found no food and also found no one to aid him in his Journey. So he started out alone, with no car fare, and walked to the City Jail. There he was given food and turned over to the City Board of Charities. At his arrival at the star tlon he was almost frozen. A. C. Smith. 78 years old, was found In an extremely uesiuuie conoiiioii m a room a 270!3 Front street. The old man lived In a room poorly shelters from the cold. Wind and snow blew through the broken panes of glass. The only way he could keep warm was by a Bmall oil lamp. In tho room there was nothing to eat except salt and a small bag of oat meal. He had subsisted on this for three days. The old man stated that he had come from The Dalles recently. It is believed he Is mentally afflicted as a result of his exposure and suffering. He was turned over to the Board of Charities. Frank B. Riley and His Committee Overwhelmed With Offers, and Succe?!, Financial and Social, Assured by Local Talent. It Is a far cry to far-off Messina, yet the great charitable heart of the people of Portland has heard the cry. Some are contributing money to the earth quake sufferers, and society Is preparing to offer Its services so that money may be raised by a concert, which promises to surpass anything of Its kind ever given in the city. Unlike other events of a company in the famous American drama. "The Great Divide." Seats are now selling at theater. WILL SING AT BENEFIT FOR ITALIAN SUFFERERS. 1 A M 1 t 1 Mrs. Rose Coarsen Reed. charitable nature, It has not been neces sary for the committee who has charge of the benefit concert to solicit people to serve. Quite the contrary. When it wa known that a benefit concert was to be given to raise funds for the stricken suf ferers of Sicily, Frank B. Riley and the rest of the committee In charge of the concert, were overwhelmed with offers. As a result the entertainment will b not only a social success, but best of all, a great financial success. The musical numbers alone would hav been sufficient to have carried the con cert through with brilliancy, for four of the best voices In the city will be heard Mrs. Rose Coursen Reed, without whom an event of this sort would hardly be complete, Madame Norelll, Doni Zan and Stuart McGuire will furnish the vocal part of the programme. In addition to this splendid display of musical art, Mr. Riley has arranged with the various vaudeville houses to donate to the concert their top-liners from the new bills of the week. There will also be a number of people, with splendid talent added to the programme. One dls tlnctlve and amusing feature will be Leo Shapirer. a brilliant and eccentric piano player. Mr. Shapirer is a teller In the First National Bank, but if Just for once he could be a vaudeville star, his playing on two pianos at once would make a hit. He has been seen twice In Portland, once at the Minstrel show given by the Span ish War Veterans, and again at the mid night matinee. His act was considered scream. W . A. Coughlan will do novelty turn. He Is a ventriloquist and 111. it Is said, furnish something sensa tional. While It Is not definitely settled, the muslo for the concert will probably be furnished by De Caprlo. If this can be arranged, all the vocal numbers will be sung under the leadership of the well- known directorship of De Caprio. Mr. Riley also announced yesterday that every florist In the city had willingly come to the front and would contribute flowers to be sold through the audience by well known society women.

Joseph W. Dean's frequent and vio lent fits of passion, during- which Mrs. B. E. W. Dean testified yesterday that she was shamefully abused, were made the ground for a divorce, which was granted by Judge Gantenbein in the Circuit Court yesterday morning., Mrs. Dean said that her husband pushed her against a stump last January, Injuring her back, and threatening to kill her, Two months later, she said, he pushed her over, so that she fell and struck her head violently on the floor. Her husband's fits of rage, she said, were accompanied by a superfluity of curses. Although Dean had filed In the Circuit Conrt an answer to his wife's com plaint,, he did not appear yesterday to contest her suit, and It went by de fault. She was permitted to resume her maiden name Bessie E. Winter. She married Dean January 6, 1907. Judge Gantenbein granted nine di vorces yesterday, only two of which were to husbands. The most frequent charge was desertion, although cruelty, drunkenness and non -support figured in the trials. Nathan Fullerton said that Ethel Ful Ierton left him for no other reason than that she could not live happily with him any longer. He said she left In July, 1907. They were married Sep tember SO, 1899. W. E. Wren said he had provided Cora E. wren with a comfortable home ever since their wed ding, but that she deserted him and would not return.

She said she had not only been abused, but had suffered for the necessaries of life. Upon her state- ment that Her husband earns $80 a month, the court -ordered that he pay her $20 a month for the support of their child, of which she was awarded the custody. The couple were married July 17, 1905. Nellie E. Weniff also told of the in dignities heaped upon lier by a drunken husband. She said he at last deserted her. They were married at Astoria, March 25. 189G. She was given the cus tody of their child, and $25 a month alimony. Bertha M. Smith said R. B. Smith, a saloonkeeper, spoke disparagingly of her character when they were living at Seaside, and that many times, when, he was brought home drunk, he had threatened to shoot her. She was given a clear title to her Seaside property, $25 alimony, besides a lump sum of $2000, and $75 attorneys' fees, which the husband must pay. They were mar ried at Vancouver, Wash., June 6, 1901. Anna K. Cassidy said William F. Cas- sidy struck her with a srick, while they were living In Eugene. They were married May 11, 1907.

NEW ATTORNEY FOR FINCHJ John A. Jeffrey Appointed to Cas of Convicted Slayer. John A. Jeffrey was appointed by Judge Bronaugh yesterday morning as attorney for James A. Finch, the convict ed murderer of Ralph B. Fisher. The appointment was made in open court at Finch's request. The time allowed by the court for filing a motion for a new trial would have expired today, but an extension of five days was allowed that Attorney Jeffrey may have an opportun Ity to examine the records In the case. Finch has intimated that one of the grounds for a new trial will be the al leged mismanagement of his case by his attorneys. He said that Charles F. Lord, who made the opening statement to the jury, had not studied the case sufficiently to tell what Finch's testi mony would be, although Finch says he took the pains to write out what he in tended to say on the witness stand. Lord has said that he gave his best endeavor in behalf of Finch, notwithstanding that he was compelled to act without remun eration. BUY BLANKETS NOW.
