stltute a , pathetic story. Dr. ' Snapp
was arrested In Ashland, Oregon, . nnd
Is now confined in the city Jail In de
fault of, $2,500 ball. y . .
Mrs, Snapp says she flrstrinet Snapp
in Newberg, Oregon, where he was
practicing medicine. She had a fear
thousand dollars and he married her,
They lived toaether until, she savs.
she , began to reprove him for atten
tions to another woman. He then se
cured a divorce on the" grounda , of
jvaiousy. - ,
Soon after procuring the divorce, she
asserts, he advised her to sell her prop
erty In southern Oregon and agreed
to secure a buyer.' Thia he did. charg
ing her $100 s for services. She - got
$2,300 for the property and moved to

Snapp then advised her, she says, to
buy a house In Ashland, the purchase
price of which was $2,000. She declares
she entrusted the purchase price to
him but he never bought the property.
She , concludes her recital by saying
that to satisfy her he -finally -bought
a house In Ashland but only paid $600
for it. Dr. Snapp will have a hear
