In Granting Decree to Woman Judge
Declares That William W. Steph
ens, of Seattle, Treated
Her Like Brute.
LOS ANGELES. OeX, March 15.
(Special.) Because she wore a peek-a-boo
waist and could not make as good
fig; preserves as her neighbor. Mrs.
Lola Stephens testified In Judge Con
rey's court today that her husband,
William W. Stephens, of Seattle, humili
ated her. These, with other allegations,
were the basis for her suit for divorce
on the legal grounds of extreme cruel
ty. She was given an Interlocutory
decree.
The couple married tn Berkeley, No
vember 18. 1908. They came to Los
Angeles soon after their marriage, but
since their separation. In August. 1810,
Stephens has made his home in Seattle,
where he Is manager for the Cudahy
Packing Company's branch.
Mrs. Stephens alleged that after she
hsd been trying to drees In a manner
which would please her husband he
taunted her before friends about her
"see-more" waist, and he told, accord
ing to her testimony, that he had his
opinion of any one who would wear
such a garment.
Woman Greatly Distressed.
TMi remark caused her great dis
tress of mind, she said, which was
equalled on another occasion when they
were dining at the home of Mrs. Clare
Gibson. Mr. Stephens, It waa stated,
requested Mrs. Gibson to make some
fig preserves for him, remarking of his
wife:
'She can't do anything."
Regarding the waist, Mr. Stephens
explained on the witness stand that
he might have made the remark, but
if he did so he was only Joking. As
to the preserves, he declared that Mrs.
Gibson had a reputation in Glendale
for making the best preserves in the
country, and he had asked her for some
that his wife might learn how to make
them.
. Neighbor Is Witness.
Mrs. Gibson was placed on the stand.
When asked how Mrs. Stephens treated
her husband, she declared, very well.
"Not as an angel, perhaps, but then,
none of us are angelic," she said.
In granting the divorce. Judge Con
rey bitterly scored Stephens for his
treatment of hie w'fe.
"The remark the defendant made yes
terday, unguardedly, has, to tell the
truth, more weight with me." said
Judge Conrey, "than her testimony. He
said that when he gave her the wed
ding ring, he told her that If ever he
got dissatisfied he would take back
the ring. That Isn't the way we get
married here."
Judge Conrey also declared that
Stephens had treated his wife like a
brute, and was not deserving the com
panionship and help of a good wife.

LABRADOR PEOPLE STARVING
Fisheries Fail and Ice Shuts Out
Relief Vessels.
SYDNEY. C. B- March 15. That the
rigorous Winter Just closing has
cauaed extreme suffering and probably
many deaths among the people in the
barren Labrador peninsula, who have
been cut off for months by great Ice
fields from the possibility of securing
food and clothing Is the one fear felt
here and in Newfoundland.
The last reports from the North which
were received last last Fall said the
food supplies were almost exhausted
and that hundreds of the natives, mainly
fisher-folks and their families were on
the verge of starvation. Supplies were
Immediately sent to relieve the situa
tion then regarded as extreme, but
months have passed since then, and the
atricken Labrador people have had no
help, nor has word come to the outside
world ss to how they are faring.
Repeated efforts have been made to
carry succor to the starving people.
Vessels, laden with supplies of food and
clothing, have failed repeatedly to
pierce ice-floes which choke the Strait
of Belle Isle, the narrow stretch of
water which separates Labrador from
the Northern Coast of New Foundland.
The present misfortunes of the Lab
rador people had their beginning in the
failure of last seaaon's fishing catch. It
was the poorest -in years. As a result
there was no money on hand to buy
food and clothing. A bllxxard which
swept over New Foundland and Labra
dor last week is believed to have caused
much damage. The interior of New
Foundland was completely Isolated for
several days, scarcely a telephone and
telegraph wire being left standing.
A blanket of snow reported In some
places as being from . 20 to JO feet
deep, covered most of the colony.
