THE SUNDAY OREGONIA PORTLAND, JUNE 17, 1917. 11 if ARREST IS SURPRISE Seattle Boilermaker Walks Into Clutches of Law. LIBERTY LOST BY OWN ACT Frank McGill, Trying to Prove His Wife Guilty of Perjury, Finds Himself Locked Tp on Charge of Threatening to Kill. Ufa cam all the way from Seattle jooaingr lor trouble and. found it. His name ia Frank. McGill, a boilermaker by trade, and a vindictive husband by Inclination. He aDDeared yesterday In the office of Deputy District At torney Delch and) wanted the state to tiacK. nim in his efforts to prove his wife a perjurer. Husky Frank wasn't roiriK to let a frail littl woman, get ib oest or Aim not by a long: shot. But Frank went to the wrong man. Mr. Delch has a penchant for two things he remembers names and faces, and he always has a few good old nomely sayings at his tongue's end. That little motto about people who Jive in houees spudded, with plate- glass windows shouldn't be caught throwing pebbles was revolving about In his mind when Husky Frank, from eeatue stepped into the room. Mr. Delch Remembers. Then as Frank began to unfold i ntory of his wife's alleged wrong' doing Mr. Deich tegan searching his memory in an effort to recall where he had seen his visitor before. Sud denly a somber day of last March was revived and he remembered talking with a little woman who had come to hlra in fear to have her husband ar rested because he had threatened to kill her. In a trloe he reached for the tele phone and called police headquarters. -A, few minutes later that Seattle boiler maker, Frank McGill, was headed to ward the City Jail to await trial on a charge of threatening to kill. In looking for trouble Frank had certainly gone to the right man. Marriage leasts Ten Years. The facts are these: Frank and Lydia McGill were married at Bremer ton, Wash., 10 years ago. They have a son, aged eight years. About a year ago Mrs. McGill left her husband at Seattle and brought her son to Portland. She claimed that her hus band treated her cruelly and refused to support herself and child. Dast March Frank came to Portland from Seattle to visit his wife. At that time he is alleged to have flourished a re volver and threatened to exterminate the beter half of the McGill family. This alleged assault was witnessed by a Mrs. Mary Hindman, of 1344 Macadam street. - PATRIOTISMS BETOPIC SUNDAY SCHOOLS WILD OBSERVE JUX.V 1.
