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 lloimeiiialds.
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
