leges Unfaithfulness.
Three tales of domestic unhapplness
are unfurled in as many divorce suits
that have Just been filed In the cir
cuit court. In each Instance the wife
is plaintiff and makes sensational and
unusual charges against her husband.
In a complaint filed yesterday by
Attorney C. T. Godwin of Milton, Mrs.
Dora Christensen charges that her
husband. James Christensen, forgot
hie marriage vows within a few
months after his marriage at Milton
on May 1. 1905. By July he had
changed completely In hli attitude to
wards his better half and became a
fault-finding spouse. Among other
things he objected to his wife enter
taining her reiatly?' visitors though
ney were uyjn.j, j her father's house
oh the ground that they ate too much.
Refnses to See Cousin.
Upon one occasion when a girl fcdus
in visited the family, Christensen re
fused even to see her and thereby
caused his wife much humiliation. In
December the defendant is said to
have left home and since that time
the plaintiff declares she has lived In
a state of happiness such as would
have been Impossible with her hus
band around.
Mrs. Christensen has two children
by a former husband, and she asks
for the return of her former name,
Mrs. Dora Hunt
Says Hubby Steals Cattle.
Sarah E. Ferguson, throueh her at-
torney, S. A. Newberry, seeks a di
vorce from Ells F. Ferguson, and her
most sensational charge is that while
living in New Mexico her husband be
came Involved In the "larceny of cat
tle" and with his wife went to Texas
for a time and while there lived un
der the name of Lewis.
Aside from this Mrs. Ferguson says
her husband would at times be very
brutal towards her and would fre
quently beat and choke her half to
death.
In a suit filed by Peter West In be
half of Mrs. Bertha Balcolm, the lat
ter charges her husband, Frank Bal
colm, with being untrue to her and
names another woman as corespon
dent. They were married here July
24, 1904.

SILVERTON SALOONMEN
LOSE IN CITY ELECTION
Good Government Ticket Elected by
Safe Majority.
Sllverton, Ore., May 6. One of the
hottest contests ever occasioned in
this city by a municipal election oc
curred Monday, and resulted in the
election of a good government ticket
by a majority of 37. On the good gov
ernment ticket W. S. Jack was elect
ed mayor, Lew Ames, G. H. Hubbes
and J. D. Drake, councllmen for two
years; Millard A. Seltz, recorder, and
M. J. Adams, treasurer.
The good government ticket was
nominated more than two weeks ago
at a primary, and the following plat
form was adopted and printed 00 the
tickets! "It elected we pledge our
best efforts to give the city of Sll
verton a fair, econpmlcal and impar
tial administration. We will oppose
all forms of graft and useless litiga
tion, will Insist upon strict enforce
ment of the law and wll at all times
work for the best Interests of the
people and Improvement of Silver
ton." Two days before election the saloon
men made up a ticket and L. H.
Fisher was placed at the head; W.
Bowser, L. F. Mascher and J. M. Wol
fard for councllmen, and A. Whltlock
for recorder. Every poslble effort
was made to win, but with no suc
cess. The vote was looked upon as a good
criterion by which to Judge the result
of the local option vote June Scotts
Mills and North Sllverton, two 3ry
precincts, have been connected with
Sllverton for the June election, and it
Is almost certain that the saloons will
be moved out of Sllverton at the June,
election. , - .
The hew council will probably make
a change In police officer and street
commlsoisner at Its first meeting, to
be held 10 days later.
Three Members of Whitman Con'
servatory Are Rare Artists.
Last evening the music lovers of
this city were especially favored by
the concert given in tne Methodist
church, under the auspices of Pen
dleton aendomy.
It Is very seldom that the people
of Pendleton have tho opportunity of
listening to artists of such rare abll
Ity as Miss Branscombe. pianist, Mr.
Williams, violinist, and Mr. Jackson
vocalist, of the Whitman conservatory
of music.
Miss Branscombe is not only
brilliant concert pianist but is also
a composer of high reputation and
uhilltv. Her beautiful rendition of
each selection make it almost Impos
sible to single out any one number
for especial mention, though she was
heard at exceptional advantage in her
own compositions, and was enthusi
astically encored by the highly appre
ciative audience. Her marvelous
ability was also shown in the artlstle
and sympathetic way in which she
accompanied Mr. Williams and Mr,
Jackson.
Mr. Williams as a concert violinist
annot be eaualed In the northwest.
e played with wonderful sweetness
and power. ;
Mr. Jackson has a voice of excep
tional range and strength. The best
rendered and most appreciated of his
numbers was perhaps, '.The Two
Grenadiers," by Schumann.
The program throughout was of
high excellence. Every number was
received with enthusiastic applause.

Haafoctl Country Will Re Fine for
, Fruit Growing.
I. W. Fox, representative of the
Hanford lands, who Is In the city,
says that the company, Spencer, Fox
& Gregory, are selling lands to many
people all over the northwest. The
soil and the climatic conditions of
that section will make It a great fruit
growing section, as they ripen earlier
than In many localities In Washington.
Mr. Fox expects to leave th first of
next week with a party from Umatilla
county,' who will look over the lands.
Mr. Fox is a rustling real estate man.

A Freak of Nature.
A year ago last fall the Milton
Nursery planted a peach pit that
grew and was budded during the fol
lowing summer. Last fall Mrs. C. T,
uizentanner bought the tree with a
number of others and planted them
in Pasco. Up to this tlme there was
nothing unusual noticeable about the
tree, but the genial climate and warm
sands of Pasco caused It to put forth
three blossoms. Now there are two
pairs of twins and triplets on the tree
where the blossoms were, making
seven peaches in all, and all growing
rapidly and are in good health, and
the mother acting as though nothing
had ever happened. The tag has been
removed from the tree and the name
lost, but the madam has rechrlsten
ed it, and it is now known as "The
Roosevelt Peach." Pasco Express.

city, one of the best platform orators
on the Pacific coast, has engaged with

thnt several prominent members of
congress from the east will be brought

tne close of the campaign.
'SOONERS" GET HEARING
IN TIMBER CLAIM FIGHT.
Men Who "Squatted" Will Re Given
a Chance.
Officials at the land office at Lake
lew have had another complication
added to the litigation accruing from
the land rush of last fall. The new
complication Is in the shape of an or
der from the commissioner of the gen
eral land office Instructing the regis
ter and receiver to grant the "sooners"
a hearing, and the date for the same
has been set In June. The sooner.''
are the parties who went Into th.
woods about a year before the lands
were opened to setlement, posted no-
Ices setting forth that they had appro.
prlated the lands and began building
homes thereon. The restoration order
opening the lands to selection and set
tlement 30 days before they became
subject to filing, and prohibiting all
parties from settling on the same be-
fore the time set by the order, was
not made until some months after the
so-called "sooners" had made settle
ment upon the land. This being the
case It Is argued by their lawyers that
their settlement was not In conflict
with the order, as It did not exist at
the time the settlement was made. The
fact that the "sooners" were granted
a hearing by the commissioner Is con
sidered a concession that they have
some rights In the premises, ost of
the lands known as "sooner " claims
have several timber and stone home
stead filings on them, and In many In
stances contests have already'bcen de
cided by the Lnkevlew office. The
"sooners" were not considered In the
past.
Several Important land decisions
have been received lately, and In every
Instance they have been adverse to the
homesetader In the timber belt, and ns
a result of these decisions many par
ties holding claims In the timber are
relinquishing the same and placing
timber and stone filings.
FUNNYMARK UNDER BOND.
Former Prmllolon Rntchor Charge!
With Forgery.
An interpretation of the terms of
partnership existing between J. Fun
nemark and L. E. Brown, doing a
butcher business under the name of
L. E. Brown & Co., may decide the
fate of the former In the superior
court when he Is tried on a charge
of forgery, says the Wallu Walla
Union.
In the municipal court yesterday
afternoon, Funnemark was tried be
fore Judge J. J. Huffman and bound
over to the superior court under
bonds of 1200.
In the terms of the partnership, the
rights of the two parties were de
fined In rather general terms. Fun
nemark It was conceded, had the
right to .Issue orders for the purchase
of supplies, although whether he had
a right to pass checks In the com
pany's name or intended the money
secured for use in getting supplies
were questions In doubt. In view of
other similar troubles In which Fun
nemark has appeared, the court was
Inclined to put the prisoner's actions
to a severe Interpretation.
The check offered in evidence was
for $15 and had been passed upon
George Mottett. Other checks for
other amounts were alleged to have
been passed on several local saloons.
Funnemark was arrested last
Thursday by Patrolman George Roff.
