G.F.GALLEGLY FACES
SERIOUS CHARGES
Man Who Deserted Wife After
Money Is Squandered Is
Accused of Bigamy.
$7500 LOST" IN BUSINESS
Former. Portland Merchant Arrested
In Ijos Angeles, Returned by
Sheriff, Says He Thought
First Wife Got Decree.
G. F. Gallegly, who dropped out of
Bight last March after the $7500 of his
wife's inheritance had dwindled to
nothingness under his management,
was brought to Portland by Sheriff
Hurlburt yesterday from Los Angeles,
to face charges of non-support. He
was arrested in the southern city last
Thursday.
Bigamy and embezzlement are charges
with which Gallegly is being threat
ened should the non-support indictment
XaiL
It appears that Gallegly is a much
married man, and that, to the best of
local knowledge, he was not divorced
from a St. Louis wife when he married
his present spouse, and is not yet di
vorced.
Wife No. 1 has written Wife No. 2
In Portland and told her of Gallegly's
duplicity, it appears, while Gallegly
himself only says, "I was told that my
first wife had procured a divorce."
In jail last night Gallegly admitted
he had squandered his second wife's
money, but denied that he took any of
it to California with him last Spring,
from the assertions of Wife No. 2
there was none to take.
Marriage for Money Denied.
Hulda Gallegly, the second wife, met
Gallegly in Chicago , in 1911. A few
months after their meeting they were
married in Milwaukee, Wis. At this
time Mrs. Gallegly had Just received
an inheritance of $7500 from her
mother's estate.
"I didn't know she had any money
when I married her," said Gallegly last
night-
The Galleglys came West directly
after their marriage, arriving in .Port
land July 29. 1911.
Gallegly purchased a grocery busi
ness at East Twenty-eighth aud East
Ankeny streets for $1400, and bought
$2100 more of stock. He also purchased
two automobiles, one a delivery ma
chine and the other a touring car. He
admits his wife paid for everything.
The store, fixtures and stock were all
placed in his own name.
There was not a great deal of the
$7500 left after this business venture
had been made, business did not keep
up well and the last of the money Mrs.
Gallegly had deposited in a Portland
bank had been spent by her husband,
ehe says, last March.
In all this time, Mrs. Gallegly de
clared, the wife had to pay household
expenses, not from the profits of the
etore but from her own bank account.
Disappearance Is Abrupt.
Then Gallegly disappeared, without
leaving a note or sign by which he
might be traced.
"No, I didn't tell my wife I was
going, but she must have expected 1
was going to leave her, because we
hadn't got along very well," declared
Gallegly yesterday.
After her husband had left Mrs. Gal
legly looked over some of the effects
he had left. She found a letter from
St. Louis, signed "Ethel," and of fairly
recent date, reproaching Gallegly for
not sending $150 instead of $100. To
find out the identity of the mysterious
Ethel was Mrs. Gallegly's next aim.
She told her troubles to Frederick
Eempsey, Deputy District Attorney. He
Investigated and found that Gallegly
had another wife, a Mrs. Ethel Gallegly,
living at 2022 Clark avenue. St. Louis.
In answer to queries Mrs. Gallegly No.
1 said that her husband had deserted
her and their three minor children in
1U10, and that she was not divorced.
Punishment Is Demanded.
Wife No. 1 said this was the first
Intimation she had that there was a
wife No. 2, and declared she would not
divorce Gallegly now until he had been
made to pay the penalty for his trifling.
Gallegly denied yesterday that he
had ever sent his first wife any money.
The investigation of Deputy Demp-
sey disclosed that, according to H. J.
Jean, a merchant of Anna, 111., brother
of Gallegly's first wife, Gallegly is
wanted in Illinois on an embezzlement
Indictment of two counts.
Lee Gallegly, of Sidon, Ark., brother
f the accused, wrote that Gallegly
had a wife in St. Louis and had been
sending her money.
Before disappearing Gallegly col
lected all outstanding grocery bills,
amounting to several hundred dollars.
it i3 said. Mrs. Gallegly .then found
that the grocery stock had been pur
chased heavily on credit, and the con
cern went into the hands of a receiver
in April, 1916.
STEERAGE STEWARD FINED
Matty Aba r no, of Steamer Kilburn,
Engages in rights.
During an argument between Matty-
Abarno, steerage steward on the
"steamer F. A. Kilburn, and "Billy
Koss, the captain's man, Abarno felled
Ross unconscious. Pie admitted to
Judge Langguth yesterday that he had
struck Ross.
What made you strike a man so
much older than you?" queried Deputy
District Attorney Ryan.
"I lost my temper," explained the
steerage steward.
For an assault upon Theodore Smith,
a waiter, who chided him for striking
Ross, the defendant was fined $20.
Smith offered as evidence his ban
daged hand, which was gnawed by
Abarno in their fight. Ross, upon
whom the first assault was made, de
clined to press his case against a ship
mate. TRAIN SMASHES TRUCK
E. T. Stuerhoff, Driver, Slightly
Injured by Collision.
An automobile truck piled high with
fruit and driven by E. T. Stuerhoff, 19.
of 2S1 Sacramento street, was struck
by a Southern Pacific train at East
Eleventh and Clinton streets yesterday
Mr. Stuerhoff was slightly injured, and
was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital
by E. A. Clark, of 1381 East Seven
teenth street South.
The truck and its freight were owned
by B. Goldberg, a produce dealer of
4-8 Rodney avenue. Mr. Goldberg com
plained that residents of the neighbor
hood raided the scattered fruit. He
estimates this loss to be $300. The
truck was demolished.
Wasco Bonds' Legality at Issue

clal.) The question of th legality of
the $260,00 road bonds recently sold
to the Clark-Kendall Company, of
Portland, is seriously discussed here.
Attorneys for the purchasing company

seining ana set nets in tne Rogu
River below Bagnell's Ferry, six miles
from the mouth, under its provisions,
only gill netting and drift netting
would be permitted.
Tichenor also has a bill that would
abolish all seining, fish wheels and
fish traps in the Columbia. Commercial
fishermen then would be restricted
their efforts to gill nets and drift
nets.
Tichenor Is opposed to the plan of
the Upper Rogue River people, as rep
resented by Sheldon, of Jackson Coun
ty, to abolish all commercial flshin
in the Lower Rogue. Sheldon him
self will introduce a ill tomorrow,
making the third on the subject, limit
ing fishing In the Rogue entirely to

SENATE QUICKLY CXEAVS SLATE
Fonr Bills Passed and T vo Others
Tabled In 40 Minutes.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or.. Jan. 15.
(Special.) It took the Senate Just
40 minutes, all told, at the morning
session to pass four bills, put two oth
ers on the table temporarily, and clean
up all business before it.
Senate bill 37, by Pierce, reducing
the legal rate of interest from 6 to 5
per cent, and on specific contracts from
10 to 8 per cent, drew forth much dis
cussion. Senator Pierce Bald this measure was
designed primarily to aid the farmers
and stockmen, who in certain parts of
the state still have to pay as high as
10 per cent on borrowed money.
Senator Shanks favored the measure,
especially the reduction from 10 to 8
per cent on specific contracts, which
includes notes. He said that In his
section (Gilliam. Sherman and Wheeler
counties), many persons have "gone
broke" because of the high rate of in
terest charged.
Cusick of Linn and Lane favored the
8 per cent part, but objected that the
reduction from 6 to 5 per cent would
subject municipal warrants to such a
heavy discount that loss would result.
Baldwin of Klamath voiced the same
objection. The bill passed, however,
without amendment.

REPORT SENT TO SALEM
FISH AND GAME COMMISSION SUG
GESTS LEGISLATION.
Recommendation Made That Deer Sea
son Be Chanced and Limits an
Number Be Fixed at 2 la Year.
Definite recommendations concerning
the regulation of both sport and com
mercial fishing and hunting are con
tained in the new biennial report of
the State Fish and Game Commission,
ust transmitted to the Governor and
the Legislative Asseicbly. Some im
portant changes in the length of sea
son, bag limit and the like, are sug
gested, which, if put into effect, are
xpected materially to improve the con-
ltions for propagation and protection
of fish and game animals and birds.
It Is recommended that the deer sea
son begin August 15 and close October
15 and the bag limit be reduced from
three to two. Oregon, it is pointed out.
s the only state that has a bag limit
as high as three.
The state law on migratory birds, it
is
suggested, should be changed to
oincide with the Federal law and the
onditions of the Federal law treaty
with Canada, making the season 4rom
October 1 to January 15.
"The bag limit for trout Is too high,
says the report. "We believe that 60
trout or 35 pounds in any one day Is
sufficient for any sportsman. One hun
dred trout or 70 pounds in any seven
consecutive days is ample, for both
portsmen and commercial fishers."

CHILD HELP URGED
Welfare Commission's t Report
.Makes Suggestions.
GREAT NEED IS SET FORTH
Segregation for Different Classes of
Inmates in School for Blind, In
stitution for Feeble-Mlnded
and Boys' School Advised.
SALEM, "Or, Jan. 15. (Special.)
Legislative recommendations covering
phases of the work throughout the
state, as well as reference to state
schools, are 'incorporated in the bien
nial report of the Child Welfare Com
mission, filed with Governor Withy-
combe today.
The commission asks that provision
be made for care and surgical treat
ment of Indigent sick, crippled and de
formed children; that- permanent cus
todial care be provided for feeble
minded children above the age of 12;
that provision be made that the care.
education and support of illegitimate
and legitimate children be identical as
nearly as possible; that provision be
made for state care and supervision for
dependent and neglected children: that
public school kindergartens be estab-
lshed; that a more effective cigarette
aw be placed on the state books, and
that eight months' session be required
in every school district.
Segregation Is Asked,
Referring to the School for the
Feeble-Minded, the commission asks
for segregation of epileptics and Imbe
ciles from the higher grade of the
Feeble-Mlnded, and that hospital fa
cilities be furnished at the institution.
It is suggested that by building a cot
tage for the superintendent to reside
in. room could be made to carry out a
part of the latter recommendations.
At the deaf school a completely seg
regated purely oral school for begin
ners is asked. Extension work to in
sure, earlier and better home instruc
tion of deaf children; day classes for
the deaf in localities where practical
ana centralized organization of all edu
cational work for the deaf in Oregon.
are also among the recommendations
maae.
A board of industrial aid is asked
for the blind school, with state schol
arships for those desiring to enter
higher educational institutions.
Physical Instructor Ursred.
At the Boys' Training School it is
asked that segregation be provided for
the younger boys, that a competent
physical director be employed, and that
a field worker be provided to assist
the boys who are out on parole.
One recommendatloo only is made
relative to the girls' school, and that
is to provide for the extra number of
girls now needing the protection of
the state.
In further reference to the School of
the Feeble-Mlnded the report declares:
"We certainly recommend that the 117
Legislature take some definite action
toward solving the problem of the In
crease of the feeble-minded, as the
present law does not commit or in any
way -restrain this class. The Inmates
of the Institution for the feeble-minded
may come and go without hindrance,
the result being that through the re
turn of previously released girls and
women, births are constantly increas
ing, even In the small colony within
the institution."
Reports Are Different.
The commission disagrees in some re
spects with the special committee
named to investigate the Boys' Train
ing School. It declares that the teeth
of the boys at that Institution have
been treated and a tooth brush given
each boy, while the other committee
commented upon the absence of tooth
brushes among some of the boys.
The commission also recommends
that both physical and mental exam
inations be given in the schools of the
large cities through a school clinic.
Members of the commission signing
the report are: Mrs. Robert H. Tate,

For All Pain
"The efficiency of any drag" says Dr. C. P.
Rohbtns "is known to us by the results we
obtain from it. ose. It we are able to con
trol pain and disease by means of any prep
aration, we certainly are warranted In lis
use. One ot the prlncrpal symptoms of all
diseases Is pain, and this Is what the patient
most often applies to us for, L. e., something
to relieve his pain. If we can arrest this
promptly the patient Is most liable to trust
in us lor tne other remedies wmcn win enect
a permanent cure. One remedy which 1
have used largely In my practice i. antl
kamnia tablets. Many and varied are their
uses. 1 nave put them to the test on many
oocaaions, and nave never been disappoint
ed. 1 found them especially valuable for
headaches of malarial oiiftin, where quinine
was being taken. They appear to prevent
the bad after-effects of the qolnlne. Antl
kamnla tablets are also excellent for the
headaches from Improper digestion: also
for headaches of a neuraUrto origin, and es
pecially for women subject to pains at
certain times. Two antl-kamnla tablet, el ve
prompt relief, and in a short time the patient
Is able to go about as usual."
THE
MAKING OF A
MEDICINE.
FAMOUS
Few people realize that over S50.000
pounds of various herbs are used an
nually In making Lydia E. Pinkham'a
Vegetable Compound, and these herbs
all have to be gathered at the season
of the year when their medicinal prop
erties are at their best.
The watchword In preparing these
herbs Is cleanliness, the process of
percolation Is perfect. All utensils and
tanks are sterilised and the medicine
Is pasteurized, clarified and filtered
before it is bottled for the consumer.
It Is this wonderful combination of
herbs, together with the skill and care
used in the preparation, which has
made this famous medicine so success
ful in the treatment ot female ilia.
