GOOD IN DIVORCE
SEEN BY. GRAHAM
JUDGE GLAD OTUPPV TIES
CAN BE SEVERED.
Real Cure Declared to Be In Elevat
ing Marriage Plane and
Educating Young.
SAX FRANCISCO. Oct. 4. (Special.)
The prevalence of divorce might not
be so great an evil as many sociologists
fear and divorce Itself. If properly
treated by the body politic, might oper
ate to cure the evil of Its own exist
ence, was the view expressed by Judge
Graham, of the Superior Court, In an
address before the California Club.
"All the statistics undoubtedly show,"
aald the Judge.- "that the proportionate
number of divorces Is increasing In all
civilized countries. But this does not
mean that the number of happy homes
is less than it was 20 or 30 years ago.
It merely means that with the growth
of individual freedom the unhappy
homes have found a way to put an and
to their unhapplness, and what was
endured in silence 20 or 30 years ago
in the fear of ostracism by society Is
now speedily terminated In the di
vorce courts, and I em glad this is
true.
, "Our divorce laws may be changed to
mitigate the evil, but the real cure
can only be made by going to the root
of the matter.
"When marriages are made with more
deliberation and forethought; when
girls are trained to expect and take
pleasure In the duties of wifehood and
motherhood and are taught what those
responsibilities are, and when boys are
trained to respect the opposite sex as
a whole, the proportion of divorces will
decline, but not until then."
The Judge said that he did not be
lieve that divorce should be made dif
ficult, but that marriage should be sur
rounded with circumstances which
give the contracting parties better pro
tection. (

STROUSS WILL NOT TELL
Other Man In Patterson Case Would
Protect Woman Facing Trial.
CHICAGO, Oct. 4. Emil W. Strouss,
who was at one time charged with
having alienated the affections of Mrs.
Charles A. Patterson before she shot
her husband in Denver last week, au
thorised fHis statement today:
"Any statement at this time would
not help Mrs. Patterson. The woman
is on trial for murder. Her counsel is
trying to shape up a' defense. It is
not an easy case and to hXve anyone
at this time make refutations or ad
missions would In no way assist the
defendant. So the best thing is silence.
"The public may think whatever it
wishes, but It is only fair to suspend
Judgment until after the trial. Then I
will give a full and detailed statement
concerning my relations with Mrs. Pato
terson, which will take away the pres
ent odium."

12,000 Supporters of Hogan

FOUR PITCHERS APPEAR
Portland Furnishes Superior Play
ing in Field and Proves Ability
,to Hit in Taking First Keat
of Coast Flag Race,
LOS ANGELES. Oct 4. (Special.)
Before 12,000 excited fans, all of them
rooting madly for Happy Hogan and
his Villagers, Walter McCredle's Port
land Beavers this afternoon defeated
Vernon in the first game of the decid
ing series of the Pacific Coast, League
pennant race, and resumed the leader
ship of the league. The final score was
9 to 7, and it required 11 hard-fought
Innings to decide the contest.
Heavy hitting marked the engage
ment from the start and both teams
used two pitchers. Portland got to Roy
Castleton, Vernon's best bet. In the
opening Inning and tallied two runs
on four hits. The Villagers came back
in their half and put one run across
by hitting Seaton, who started for the
Beavers, for a brace of lusty swipes
which netted one run. A speedy double
play pulled Seaton out of the hole la
that inning.
Seaton Not I'p to Form.
Seaton was not up to his usual form,
however, and when Vernon tied up the
game in the fourth McCredie took
Tommy out of the box and substituted
Elmer Koestner, who finished the game.
Both Koestner and Castleton were
found frequently for hits, though sev
eral of the long drives credited to tha
Vernon club wielders were really due
to the overflow crowd, which prevented
Chadbourne, Ryan and Krueger from
getting within reach of fly balls. Under
ordinary circumstances these files
would have been easy catches for the
Portland fielders.
In almc-st every quarter of Los An
geles the result of today's game Is be
lieved to settle the pennant and the
Beavers are picked to win the 1911
flag. Portland showed the "class" and
gameneas of the team in the face of
the strenuous rooting of the big throng
won admiration for the club.
Fans Create Din.
Every conceivable noise-producer,
With the exception of 13-Inch guns and
nltro-glycerlne, was brought into play
by the "bugs" and "buggesses" of this
baseball-crazy town. In a number of
the boxes automobile horns wera
worked automatically by electric con
nection and these maintained a deafen
ing noise. At times It was Impossible
for a fan to make his voice penetrate
to the person occupying the next seat.
The Beavers really had to win the
game three different times.' Vernon
proved dangerous every minute, though
Koestner would have stopped the run
getting had it not been for the over
flow crowd which prevented his out
field support from coming to his relief
on comparatively easy flies.
Chet Chadbourne proved the heaviest
hitter of the Beaver band In the earlier
Innings, while Buddy Ryan starred In
the closing chapter which brought first
blood of the series to the Portland
team. ..
In the first and second Innings. H
was Chadbourne's batting which
brought three runs to the Beaver ban
ner. In the seventh with the score 4
to 8 In favor of Vernon the Beavers
rapped Castleton for three runs, and
this time Ryan's willow counted. Buddy
dented the Vernon southpaw for a
pretty hit. which tallied two of tha
three runs.
Vernon was favored by Dame For
tune in the last of the seventh. fo
Patterson's high fly to left would hava
been a out had It not been for the Jam
in the field and the two runs result
ing tied the game into another bow
knot. .
Tl ravers Retake Lead.
A single by Koestner and Chad
bournes sacrifice, followed by a timely
bingle by Bill Rodgers. gave Portland
a momentary lead In the eighth.
Rapps doubled and Ryan singled la
the ninth, but both were left on tha
sacks, aa Castleton's curves were too
difficult for Krueger to solve In tha
inning.
Johnny Kane was sent In to bat for
Castleton in Vernon's half of the
ninth and he made good with a singl
to center. Carlisle hit to Rapps, wh
tossed Kane out at second, but Peckin
paugh, in an effort to complete I
double play, threw badly to Rapps an
CarliBle reached second. Ross weul
out, Rodgers to Rapps and Carllsll
reached third.
Koestner then perpetrated a wll
pitch, allowing the Vernon Jead-ofl
man to score. This also put "Red
