It was formerly customary for the liabltual drinker to take the pledge reg ularly, sometimes once a year, and sometimes in every fit of remorse that followed his debauches, and then .break It, But now It Is gradually dawning on tha world that pledges do not stop drunkenness. When a man takes a r 1edg voluntarily, he expects to keep t. Eery man expects to keep his word and every broken pledge costs the drunkard many a heartache. But be cannot help it He fights as long as he can, then succumos to me craving, i ne nervous system of the habitual drinker Is diseased and he must have treatment tiist will our, this condition.

To dispute this the contestant yesterday placed on the stand a Mrs. Egan, who claims to be the di vorced wife of Charles Petterson, an! who saya that Carl Oscar Petterson was born to them In March, 1892. Mrs. Kgan says she has recently discovered that Petterson married her under tha name of Anderson. It was announced that a witness to the mir- flage will testify, but the contestant s unable to produce the record of a marriage license. Mrs. Egan says Pet terson tore up the license. She gives December 23, 1891, as the date of her marriage to Petterson, and she alleges that Petterson deserted her in April of the following year. They were then living in Taeoma, Wash., where Pet terson was engaged in the saloon bus iness. Mrs. Frank O. Anderson, an old friend of Mrs. Egan. testified that she had heard of the m&rri&ira nf Petterunn nnti the boy's mother, then Miss Christina Cioore. She also heard of Petterson s desertion and the birth of a babe. John H- Goora, brother of Mrs. Egan, testi fied that he had been to see his sister and Petterson several times while they were living together, though he did not attend the wedding. He said he had known ever since the boy was born to them, and he identified the youth in the courtroom as the one that occupied the cradle In the Petterson home In Taooma. All of these witnesses Identified a portrait of Oscar Petterson as a like ness of the man they knew in Tacoma as the husband of Christina Goore. The brother and one other witness testi fied that Petterson "treated them" on the birth of the boy, telling them he was celebrating the arrival nf a son. W&ldemar Seton Is representing the contestant. Gus C. Moser, who appears for the executor, asserts that the con test wag concocted to defeat the rightful heirs. Judge Webster Is hearing the testimony in the county court.
