Ontario Democrat. Seattle, Oct. 8. Henry B. Beecher, son of the late Henry Ward Beecher, the noted pulpK orator, nnd nephew of Hnrrlet Beecher Stowe, the author or "Uncle Tom's Cabin," has Institut ed divorce proceedings in the superior court ot tnis county against his wife, Mrs. H. B. Beecher, of Brooklyn. N. A. The ground alleged Is desertion for five years. Mr. Beecher, who Is a middle-aged man and has children grown, came to the Pacific const five years ago. Dur ing the past year he has established n legnl residence In Seattle for the pur pose, It Is snld, of securing a divorce, and if possible, avoiding any notorie ty. He has made every effort to con ceal his identity, but It wns discov ered yesterdny. The divorce complnint filed Is de void of sensations, and the title of the suit is "H. B. Beecher vs. H. B. Beecher." There is absolutely noth ing In the papers to show that the plaintiff is the son of a distinguished father. In his complaint Mr. Beecher al leges that when he came to the Pn ciflc coast his wife refused to come with him, or to follow him here, but remained In their home at Brooklyn much against his will. He claims that he does not know her exact where abouts, not having heard from her for some time and the service of the com plaint was by publication of the sum mons. Mrs. Beecher has so far made no appearance in the case and un order of default was recently entered. Ad vices from New York, however, state that Mrs. Beecher Is aware and may contest his Butt. Mr. Beecher has so carefully cov ered up his Identity that even IiIh at torney, Frank B. Snyre, claims that he did not know of his client's ante cedents. He stnted this morning that he knew little nbout the case except thnt Beecher bad come to him nnd asked him to get him a divorce and showed that he had a clear cause of action.

Men for general housework Is the latest development of the domestic service problem. In answer to the old, old complaint ot Inability to ob tain servant girls who do not pretend to be specialists, the Women's Do mestic guild Is replying: "Try n man. They are willing, at least." Six men actually have been placed In general housework positions by the guild within the last two weeks, and In every case the housekeeper has re ported herself satisfied with the re sult of the experiment. Colored men prove to be the most adept In this as sumption of servant girl duties. "The men cook, wash dishes, sat and wait on the table, scrub, wash windows, everything that the general housework girl does, except wash clothes and make beds," said Mrs. A. M. Wadsworth, manager of the culld, yesterday. "In addition, they nro nvallable for heavier kinds of work around the house which a girl would not uudertnke, such as cleaning snow off the walk and mowing lawns. It may be the solution of the domestic problem at last. Who knowa7" Chi cago llecord-Hernld.
