YOUHS El ADMITS GUILT

STOLE FROM MEX.
.Refuse to Divulge Identity to Court,
but Tells Police Who Write
People.
OAKIesT. C&L. Feb. 11. (Special.)
Clalra Curtis s, daughter of a promi
nent Portland family, who. while living
with friends In San Francisco and pos
ing: as a bookkeeper with, employment
In Oakland, preyed upon pedestrians,
today pleaded guilty before Judge
Brown to gTand larceny. The crime
to which ne admits guilt Is the theft
of a diamond pin and $60 from Alex

One Man Killed on Billings &
Northern Road.
GREAT FALLS, Mont.. Feb. 11. The
first wreck on the new Billings & North
ern Railroad occurred today at Spionkop,
about 60 miles southeast of Great Falls.

of the train, left the rails and went Into
the ditch. The engineer and regular fire

NO STOP FOR LEMP CASE
JUDGE TVTXIj XOT PERMIT
EARLY CLOSE.
Attorneys for Defendant May Try,
However, to Prevent Lemp'a
Testifying.
ST. LOUI8. Feb. 11. Before the trial
of the divorce suit of Mrs. Lillian Hand
Ian Lemp adjourned today until Satur
day, Mrs. Lemp'a attorneys announced
they will file a motion Saturday asking
that a decree be entered in her favor as
the case now stands. This would bar
out the testimony of W. J. Lemp, Jr.,
and all of his witnesses if granted. Judge
Hitchcock told ths lawyers he would
overrule the motion and would hear the
cas to the end.
At the trial of the Lemp divorce case
today in Judge Hitchcock's court the
reading of the deposition of Mr. Lemp
was continued. Specific denial of most
of Mrs. Lemp's allegations make up the
deposition.
A. H. llandlan. father of Mrs. Lemp,
stifled that on several occasions Lemp
had talked with him with reference to
getting a divorce from his daughter.
"He told me he did not think my
daughter could get a. divorce, because
she was a Roman Catholic, but he was
willing for her to have It." said Mr.
Handlan, who was on the stand only a
few minutes.
G. G. Pabst, of Milwaukee, a brother-in-law
of the defendant, preceded Mr.
Handlan. He was one of the witnesses
to the alleged antenuptial agreement be
tween Mr. Lemp and Miss Handlan that,
if children were born, the mother would
not attempt to influence them in a re
ligious way. He Identified the document
presented In court, but did not state
whether Miss Handlan read it before4at-
taccing ner signature tnereio.

BERLIN, Feb. 11. Intense curiosity is
