JOMELLI'S FATE IS HARD
OXCE FAMOUS SINGER XOW OB
SCURE MUSIC TEACHER.
Husband, Indicted for Non-Support
or Former AYife, Critically Hi in
California Sanitarium.
Once a favorite here and admired by
thousands of music lovers throughout
the country, Madame Jeanne Jomelli
row is an obscure music teacher in San
Francisco, and her husband, Orrin
Backus, lies critically ill in a California
sanitarium, said Deputy Sheriff Chris
tofferfon upon his return yesterday
from the south, where, among- other
things, he served a summons upon
Backus for failure to support his first
wife and child in Portland.
The husband of the ins;cr was too
ill to be removed to this city. Almost
penniless, he told the deputy that he
did not ttop payment to Mrs. Myrtle
A. Backus from choice but from neces
pity. He va indicted by the Mult
nomah county grand jury for non-
support in June, 101S.
Madame Jomelli and Backus were
both married when they met for the
l irst time at a concert in San Francisco
in Backus was then a civil ensi
peer of some prominence. It was said
to have been a case of mutual infatu
at ion. Shortly after the meeting- Mad
am Jomelli filed suit for divorce in
Columbia county, Oreron. Coming- back
to Tortland Backus begin proceedings
against his.wife, rharging her with de
sertion. In an answer and cross-com
plaint Mrs. Backus accused her husband
of infidelity and cruelty and divorce
vas granted her July 26, 191o, with $10
a month for the support of their son.
William Henry Backus, ajred 3. In 1917
Mrs. Backus secured an increase of ali
mony to $35 a month.
Popularity of Madame Jomelli waned,
and she was accused of commercialism
in her art. After her marriage to
Backus, early in 3 916, they went to
California, her husband acting as her
manager.
Since the first of this year Backus
has been in a sanitarium, and his wife
has continued teaching, but the deputy
sheriff says her pupils apparently have
dwindled to a small number and that
there were no signs of affluence in her
home.

For Itching Torture
There is one remedy that seldom .
f ?iis to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, dear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
Zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Eczema, itch, pimples,
rashes, blackheads in most cases give
way to Zemo. Frequently, minor blem
ishes disappear over night. Itching us
ually stops instantly. Zemo is a .safe,
antiseptic, liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an ex
tra larpe bottle, $1.00. It will not stain,
is not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.
