WIFE ACCUSES HUSBAND
In His Answer to Complaint, G.V.
Dow Charges Her With Reward
ins His Kindness With
Curses and Abuse.
"No 40t4 Eugene, Or. I am 48 years of
nge, weigh 145 pounds, and I am 5 feet
4' Inches in height. I have blue eyes,
dark brown hair. I am a German. My
occupation Is that of music teacher. My
appearance Is rather good. I do not use
tobacco or liquor. I am very healthy.
My education is very good. I expect an
Inheritance of $10,000. .1 have been mar
ried, but my husband is dead. I have no
children. I would marry a good man,
who is temperate in his habits, and will
make a home for me, and who will treat
. me kindly, not younger than B0. I do not
cure how old he is If he is healthy."
This advertisement in the Matrimonial
Register, published by the Interstate In
t i nducing Company, was answered by G.
tv. Dow, a widower, 73 years old. and as
a result he was marrted to the advertiser
nt" Eugene, October 7. 1905.
Several days ago his wife began suit
a gainst him in the State Circuit Court for
a divorce. The title of the case is Min
nie Dow atfaiust U. W Dow. The de
fendant lives in Linn County, where he
has a farm, and he alo follows the
cooper trade at time
Mrs. Dow In her complaint charges
Dow with cruel treatment. She says
the food he provided was fat pork and
potatoes and sometimes she went hungry.
She alleges that she was compelled to
cut all the stove wood, and that he did
not treat her kindly. She says he Is the
proprietor of a cooper shop which earns
him $100 a month, and he also owns a
farm worth $4000; and has an income of
over $1300 a year. Mrs. Dow asks for
$12S attorney's fees and $250 alimony.
Mr. Dow has filed an answer and affi
davit through his attorneys. Weatherford
& Wyatt. of Albany. He tells of the
matrimonial advertisement and his sub
sequent meeting with the fair one at
Eugene, and of their wedding. He says
he was lonely, and wanted a companion to
comfort him during1 his remaining years,
but says she proved a snare and a delu
sion, and rewarded his kindness with
curses and abuse.
Mrs. Dow avers that all the money he
ever gave her was $1, and the husband
admits that he was careful In financial
matters, because, he recites in his answer,
once she asked him for SO cents and he
inquired what she wanted to do with so
much money, and called her attention to
the fact that he worked hard for his
means. She replied with curses, he says,
and he gave her the money.
Mr. Dow denies that he makes money in
the cooper business, and asserts that he
earns' $20 or less now and then making a
few kegs, and his earnings on trie farm
are small. He further states that he
owes money secured by mortgage.
' Affidavits signed by two of his neighbors
have been filed reciting that he has a
comfortable home and has always pro
vided a good table.
THREE LADS ARK SENTENCED
Given Liberty on Parole and Lec
tured by Judge Sears.
"Ton ought to feel ashamed of your
conduct," said Circuit Judge Sears : yes
terday, in passing sentence upon Larry
Hyland, Fred Haynes and Charles May
hew, three lads 18 years old, each of
whom was charged with contributing to
the delinquency of Ruby Potts, 15 years
old. They gave her whisky to drink and
afterwards took her to a lodging-house.
Their plans were Interrupted and Ser
geant of Police X W. Cole,. Harry Par
ker, William Carr and Mrs. Minnie Potts
ppeared as witnesses against the three
lads before District Attorney Manning.
A plea of guilty was en'tered in each
case, and Judge Sears pronounced a sen
tence of six months' imprisonment in the
County Jail, accompanied by an order of
parole. Judge Sears warned the three
young men to behave in future, and told
them in the event of failure to obey the
court's injunc'tion that the sentence
would be enforced.
The three mothers were present, and
promised to see that their sons would
heed the warning.
B. S. Pague, who was appointed by
Judge Sears several days ago attorney for
the defendants, advised with them and
secured their promise "that they would
redeem themselves. Deputy District At
torney Adams has been told the name of
the saloonkeeper who sold the. whisky,
and he will be arrested and prosecuted.

Put a Monarch Malleable Range Into Your Kitchen
$1.00 Down and $1.00 a Week will do it
The price of a Mon
arch Malleable is a
little higher than of
the general run of
ranges, but the Mon
arch is in the lead,
because economical
housekeepers know
that the first cost is
warranted by the su
perior advantages of
the Monarch Malle
able Ranges. They
last longer, require
less repair, bake best
and consume less
fuel.
The use of malle
able iron makes the
Monarch a range
that will not crack,
warp, break or open
up in the seams. Con
sequently there is no
increase during the
life of the ransre in
the amount of
fuel required.
The amount of
:uel necessary
the first year deter
mines the amount it
will use any other
year.
Write
booklet.
for
free
Any range lacking the essential elements of strength given the
Monarch by the use of malleable iron will increase in the amount of
fnel required as time goes by.. It will crack, break, warp, the stove
pntty gradually burn out and the seams open and admit the air di
rectly into the flues. This may not and seldom does take place all
at once. It is gradual. At the end of the first year's use the range
may require a gallon of coal each day more than was used to do the
same work in the beginning without the housekeeper being conscious
of an increase; yet this single gallon (10 lbs.) wasted each day would
at the price of $7.50 per ton for anthracite coal make the waste 3
cents per day or a total of $13.69 for a year. If the comparison b
made where soft coal or wood is used the same proportion of increase
would make the loss amount to nearly, if not quite as much, as is
shown for hard coal. Thus the difference in first cost cannot in any
case be enough to offset the waste resulting from the first 15 months'
use of any range that can be purchased at a lower price than a)
Monarch Malleable Prices $49 to $135. We pay $30 for any
Monarch Malleable Range, bought here at any tim.

plank. In some way Copley fell to the
ground, a distance of several feet, and

hurt, and that the Southern r-aclflo Com

CLEARANCES FOR MONTH
Show Good Increase Over May of
Last Year.
The figures issued by the Portland
Clearing-House for the business passing
through the clearing-house banks during
the month of May do not show such a
large Increase over the corresponding
month of last year as was expected from
the big Increase of the earlier months
this year. However, the growth of Port
land's trade during May indicates steady
advances In all lines of business and is
encouraging.
The figures for May are $22,060,277.94.
which is an advance of $3.308.811.9 over
the business transacted by Portland banks
during May, 1905. when the figures were
$18,751,465.98.
The principal reason for the smaller In
crease over last year In May than dur
ing the earlier months of the presenfyear
Is believed to be the temporary loss f
business In realty that followed the San
Francisco disaster. Local real estate deal
ers have been Inactive since the earth
quake and have not yet regained the vol
ume of business they ; were transacting
before the shock. ! In this respect the de
struction of San Francisco caused heavy
losses to Portland dealers.
Other lines of business have been active
during the month, as Is shown by the to
tal amount of business passing through
the Clearing-House. Each month of the
year has shown a substantial growth
over the same periods last year, and the
start that has been made is so encourag
ing that it indicates . the totals will con
tinue to increase each month as the year
progresses.
