PURSUING A CKIPFLK.
Not Sat Bad With Uesartlat Plm
he Wanted HI Maaajr.
Sackamento. . Oct. 6 Mrs
Helen. Wolfrom. formerly Mra.
Wagner, got a divorce from John
Wanner, a crippled mechanic in
the railroad shops here who can
earn ouly half wage, several
mont ha ago. after four unsuccessful
attempts, the simple statement of
the husband having been sufficient
to foil ber attempt for liberation.
Wanner showed that he had no
d sire to sever the tie, that he had
aiwavs i. one his best to be a good
husband and that tho unwilling
nartner of his loya and sorrows ap
peared to be thinking of something
else, lie iinaiiy ureu ui. uguuuic
and tht fifth tuit went against
him, the usual penalty of the ali
mony being attached.
The day after iter divorce tne
woman married a 10.0 county
rancher, worth $300,000. Notwith
standing tbia, she baa continued
to pursue Wolfrom, insisting on
alimony and the coats of the liti
gation. Attorney Hiram John
ston said the woman ought to be
satisfied with the rich buabandebe
had got. Judge Catiin remarked
that that waa the way it -loosed to
him. Attorney McKeene became
excited and wanted to know if the
case waa going to be decided with
out giving hia aide a bearing.
"Oh. 1 know all about tne case-
replied the court. "I remember
when the teatimony waa Deing
taken and am familiar with it.
This man is a cripple and not a
round workingman. She has mar
ried a man who ia more than able
to pay all of her litigation ex
penses." Mr. McKeene insisted that the
fact that the woman's laathnaband
was wealthy had nothing whatever
to do with the case, but Judge
Call in held to hia opinion and
denied the application for alimony.

Are Arrested on Suspicion of
Being the Perpetrators.
N.apa Oct. C Sheriff George
McKenzie has returned here with
two men who are suspected of be
ing the murders of Mrs. Green
wood in February last. Teu days
ago he left here armed with a rt q
uisition from Governor Mark ham
for the men who were then de
tained i.i jail at Glendive, Mont.
They give the ttamea of George and
J. C. Dawson and say they are
brothers, but the authorities are
satisfied they are not brothers.
They are held on a confession
raid to have been made in a jail
in North Dakota.
The crime for which they are
held is told as follows: A way
farer on the road from Vallejo to
Napa City early on the morning of
rebruary 10, this year, in passing
the Home Captain John U. Green
wood, a wealthy rancher, found
him lying in the road, his hands
tied behind him and his person
covered with blood from two pistol
wounds in hia bead. He told a
terrible tale of an assault by rob
bera on the night previous Two
men had attacked him, lit d him
hand and - foot and drugged
him. lhey had then compelled
his wife to drink a potion of the
same drug, after which they bad
bound her hands and bound ber
to a bed in an adjoining room.
This done, they ransacked the
houre, displacing every piece of
lurmture in their search lor gold,
but li tiding only $14 in silver.
They then appeared to leave the
house, for all was ailent, and
Greenwood endeavored to free
himself. He succeeded in break
ing the cor J that bound his feet
and crept to the bedside of his
wife and called to her, bnt she did
not answer, no donbt being under
the influence ol the drug.
After some efforts to arouse her
Greenwood sank down exhausted
by the bed and lay there until
the clock struck 11, when he was
aroused by voices out aide. The
robbers had returned to complete
their work, lhey took the cap
tain out in the hallway, gagged
and retied him and then shot him
twice in the head. Believing him
dead they left him and returned
to where hia wife lay and shot her
dead. They then left the house
for good. Greenwood managed to
crawl to the road and was there

Another
to Be Given
Severe Test.
Washington, OcL 6. The most
interesting and important armour
plate test, so far as the country is
concerned, will take place this
month at the naval proving ground
at Indiana Head on the Potomac.
Last year the rosults were in favor
of nickel steel as against all steel
plates, and tbia year the attack
will be mainly on the former, al
though all steel plates will be fired
at that noopKrtunity for practical
comparison may be lost. There
have been prediction that no
foundry 011 this side of the Atlan
tic could supply armour plate for
the new United States vcssela of
war, and that the navy department
would be forced to go to Creugot,
in France, where the victorious
nickel steel was manufactured, or.
all else failing, to Cammel & Co. in
England, where the destroved
compound plate of the Annapolis
triala waa made. Almost within
one year from the time of those
triala, however, two companies
have produced eight platea which
are to be made the subject of tbia
month a teat at Indian Uead. it
will be interesting to note whether -these
initial productions of do
mestic foundariea equal or excel,
iu all those qualities which go to
make up a psrfect armour plate.
the manufactures of more experi
enced English and French foundar
iea.
There is no reason to believe.
say ordnance experts, that tbia
equality at leat-t fchall not be at
tained, foreign processes ot man- -ufacture
have been purchased by
two domestic companies, and with
improvements in the method of
treat-sent suggested by the prover
bial American ingenuity and in
ventiveness, the expectation that
better general results will be ob
tained is not unreasonable. Such
trials as have been held with email .
plates of domestic manufacture
have been eminently satisfactory,
and the testa of the three-inch
nickel plates of the Harvey process
at Annapolis last May suggested
the line of subsequent opertUon.
