HOUND FOR SYDNEY ABOUT MONTH OVERDUE Jiellevctl in Shipping CI it tea Vcaacl 11m Kncounterrd Hoary Bern Left Tori land July 1 and Frisco Few Inys Later No Tiding. Increasing; anxiety In shipping circle la felt far the Rrltlsh steamer Aeon, which left thl port July X and Ban Francisco July 6 for Sydney, Australia. Reinsurance on the m Using- vessels was quoted this morning- at 40 per cent. No word has been received of her arrival at Apia, Bamoa. where she was sched uled to put In for coal, nor have any fa vorable advices oeen received at Sydney from boats crossing her course. The Auon registers 2,759 tons net and loaded here nt the mills of the North I'Hclllc Lumber company and the Pacific Export Lumber company. Besides the cargo she received here she loaded red wood lumber at Eureka until she had on board a capacity cargo. She sailed from San Kranclsoo In command of Cap tain lownle. According to the usual running schedule, trie Aeon Is now more than threo weeks overdue. The distance from 8nn Francisco to Sydney Is generally R li days' run for vessels of the type of the Aeon. Had the steamer been any where near on time he -would have re ported at Apia about July 2i. but over a month has elapsed since then and ad vices are still hu-k'.ng In shipping circles It Is believed that with the heavy load she carried the Aeon encountered a heavy sea and has been disabled, perhaps seriously, al- though all hope of her reaching port has not as yet been relinquished.

Tallman la of a cross, sul len and morose disposition, according to the storv told on the witness stand by Mrs. Katherlne Tallman. his wife, who was an applicant tor a divorce from her unpleasant husband. Mrs. Talltnun recited a long list of griev ances tending to show that life with William J. Is not one long, sweet dream. Tallinun. It appears, has been In the habit of staying out nights, wandering home along about II or 13 or 1 with a grouch on, and when asked where he nau heen. or grumpily telling the wife of his bosom that It was none of her business. On such rare occasions as he did stay home, he. would sit around without saying a word, not even answer ing when spoken to. Furthermore, ha would not go to the theatre with her, or to stroll, or to visit their friends, telling her when she nuked him to a-o. to find somebody else to take her. Mrs. Tallman has two children by a rormcr marriage, and Tallman, It seems, has not been exactly a father to them, except In administering a thrashing oc casionally. He would whip the lu-year-old boy for not keeping the wood box full, and even whipped: the 17-year-old go n supported his ramlly to the ex tent of paying the rent, "so ho would have sonic place to stay," according to ono of the witnesses, hut aside from this has done nothing, and Mrs. Tallman . ... . . boen "bilged to support the family The sailing date of the Alesla has I hv working in rTi,.., .i h. .,,. been moved up to tomorrow In order to keeping roomers und doing her own give her time to complete her flour cargo. Preparations are being made to enter tain the officers and crew of the Italian miser Puglla, now In Seattle, which will arrive In Portland. September 4 and remain here until toward the close of the month to have her machinery re paired. The vessel Is hound for the orlen t. washing at night after he returned home. Judge Gantenbeln said that it was a pretty close case, fie did not want to be thought willing to grant a divorce because the husband would not go to the theatre with his wife, but other considerations. It seemed to him, war ranted the granting of th divorce, and It was so ordered. Minnie K. Hurke, who wa granted a divorce thl' morning from Michael J. Burke, appears to have been unfortu nate, In her choice of hushar.ds. Michael Is the second one She has shed In the divorce court, the charges In both case being the same desertion ana non-support. Minnie Is now Miss Hrandanberg for the third time, being one more al lowed to resume her maiden name. . Ellsworth C. Tabler "wa simply shirtless. according to tha testimony of Mrs. Clark, mother of Maul A. Tab ler, another wife who sought and ob tained a divorce this morning. Tabler lust didn't want to work, eo he left his wife and skipped out over a yoar ago. leaving her to shift for herself. Kllsworth didn't want any cene. It seems, for he gave no warning of, his Intentions. He Just started off ono morning to work ns usual and failed to com home again The divorce was granted and the applicant allowed to resume her maiden name of Maud A. Uorworth The suit for divorce of Susie B. Vance against Alexander Vance was set for trial but there was no appearance of the parties. Vance Is doing 20 years In the penitentiary on conviction of having criminally assaulted his own daughter. VESSELS COME FOR WHEAT. . Queen Amelia and French nark Gael Coming to Portland.

Among the places visited h- the bri dal couple were Taooma, Seattle and other sound cities. In returning they visited North Yakima. Spokane and Walla Walla. Of all the pines visited the travelers were most impressed with Walla YVnJla. which they say is advanc ing rapidly and showing all the charai-" it'ristks of a growing metropolis.
