Minahan, of Seattle, Who Will Deliver Addres at St. Pat rick's Day Celebration. the land and actually occupied by the entry man, and a portion of the tract cultivated. Lands covered by entries affected by the bill. It is stated by the Department, are generally rough, not easy of access, and chiefly valuable fior the timber there on, and investigation has developed that compliance with the law as to residence and cultivation Is of that character usu ally denied by the Department as a basis for granting patent under the homestead law. Concluding the report, the Department states the conditions under which the lands were entered do not Justify legis lation which would make an exception in these cases, and which would waive com pliance with the wholesome requirements or tno homestead act. The Oregon delegation members re ceived a telegram from A. W. LafTerry to day, advising that he had telegraphed the rresioem to instruct Secretary Ballinger to withhold cancellation of the Siletz cases pending his arrival here-4o present the case to the Department.

In Answering Spouse's Divorce Suit Woman Accuses Him of Cruelty and' Failure to Keep Her and Children. How she was the victim of unfound ed jealousies of her husband, who beat her, had her arrested and her children taken from her on charges of which she was later exonerated by the grand Jury, Is told in an affidavit filed yes terday by Mrs. Lillian A. Huston. The document Is an answer to the divorce suitllled by "William J. Huston. Mrs. Huston's protestations of Inno cence are borne out by evidence pre sented to the grand Jury, the -most Important of which was given by Con stable Wagner, who arrested the wo man on complaint of her husband. With Mrs. Huston C J. Holbrook, a roomer In Mrs. Huston's home, was arrested, the husband alleging intimacy. It was proved to the grand Jury, it is asserted, that at the time the arrest was made Mrs. Huston was simply coaming from Holbrook's room In her answer to her husband's com plaint, Mrs. Huston says that after her arrest she was forced to remain in jail a night and until the next af ternoon, and she calls attention to the action of the- grand jury in refusing to find a true bill, against her. Huston's first serious cruelty to her. she declares, occurred when they were living In Moore's Valley, in the Sum mer of 1904. Then, she says, her hus band struck her a blow that felled her to the flor. In Montavilla, in April, 1908, Mrs. Huston asserts, she was accused by her husband of improper conduct and that he pointed a revolver t her. In July of the same year, she says, he struck her a blow on the head that dazed her for three hours. Huston Is a bridgebullder, and gets $4 a day, bis wife asserts, but in spite of his . evident ability to support her, she has been compelled to sew and keep roomers to provide the greater part of the living expenses for herself and. three minor children. During their 12 years of married life. Mrs. Huston says she and her husband had acquired some real estate. In which she has an equal share with him. The household effects, at present in their home, she asserts, were ptlrchased with money earned by her. Mrs. Huston asks the court to award her $250 attorney's fees and a perma nent allowance of $60 a month for the support of herself and children. John H. Stevenson is her attorney, i Minnie Rosenberg, a bride of less than six months, brought STjit yester day In the Circuit Court for divorce from Don. Rosenberg for cruelty. She accuses him of having accused her of wrongdoing and of refufsing to believe In her veracity. NEW B00KAT GILL'S.

Cms tenner Sharestlie OUR ANNUAL SAVINGS IN INTEREST and TAXES BECAUSE WE BUILT ON THE EAST SIDE We own our own building sad have no rent to pay, but of course the money invested has an inter est value that must be reckoned, which is an indirect rent consideration. Had we bought a quarter block in the central West Side business district the land alone would have cost us 5 times as much as the cost of both our land and building on the E ast Side. We therefore absolutely do not exaggerate when we .claim to save $25,000 annually in interest and taxes, which enables us to save our customers that amount each year, for if we were on the West Side and had to stand that much additional expens e we certainly would have to add it to the cost of Jhe furniture and pass it on to the consumer, who must stand everything in the end you know that.
