Oregonion Sues for Divorce.
W. H. French, of Forest Grove
has sued Catherine French for
divorce. He alleges in his com­
plaint that the wife has been
guilty of cruelty and inhuman
treatment, and that while she is
a good housekeeper she has many
times refused to keep the house
in condition, and has also been
negligent about getting his
meals. He also says she has sev­
eral times said she would take
poison, and altogether, her con­
duct has caused him much an­
guish. They were married in
Pendleton in 1910.—Argus.
