DIVOUCE ACTIOXS HERE.
Certain Amount of Popularity Iiwured
the System of Getting Divorces In
Distant Counties, as it Avoids Pub
licity, Whlrli In Many Cases Is Dis
agreeable Havtn vs. Ilaun, From
Portland.
Is Peter West to have a rival In the
divorce business in Umatilla coun
ty? This question Is now seriously
agitating legal circles In this city.
Today Attorneys Grey and Rich
ardson of Portland filed a suit
for Mrs. Mary E. Hawn against
Lewis O. Hawn, and It Is said
that a number of divorce cases
from Portland are now being prepar
ed by the mime attorneys to be
heard In Umatilla county.
By securing service In this county
Portland divorces and unpleasant
family affairs may be kept more se
cret ns there Is not the same degree
of Interest In the cases filed bv
strangers as would be taken In lo-
cnl cases and for this reason It Is
believed that a general policy of fil
ing divorce cases In this nnd other
eastern Oregon counties Is to be pur
sued by certain Portlnnd attorneys
hereafter.
The Hnwns were married In The
Dalles In 1902 and have no children.
The complnlnt filed by Mrs. Hawn
alleges general nlseonduet on the
part of her husband, who la a cook

WAXT MORE SEWERS.
People South of Jackson Street Would
I.Ike a Main Full Length of That
Section.
That portion of north Pendleton ly
ing south of Jackson street, Is not
supplied with a city sewer system,
but a number of private sewers
which empty Into Walters mill race.
As the water Is now shut off from
the mill race sewerage Is not carried
away, but lies In the bottom of the
race and Is becoming a nuisance.
It lp the desire of the residents of
that portion of the city to have a sew
er main laid below the settlement
along the entire length of (hat section
which would furnish accommodations
to everything south of Jackson street
and the matter will be taken up with
the sewer committee of the city coun
cil before any sewer extensions are
started.
Neither Pendleton academy nor tho
north side public school building are
connected with the sewer system, and
II Is hoped that this main may be
laid this year.
Will Rely on Juvenile Court.
Yesterday some of the boys on the
north side entered Professor W. H.
Uleakney's henhouse and broke some
valushle eggs under setting hens. It
is reported that the denizens In that
vicinity are tired of the bad boy nui
sance, and unless the parents stop
their depredations some of them will
come before the Juvenile court. The
hoys live In the vicinity, nnd only a
desire to keep down a neighborhood
row has prevented action before this.
