Leonard Gross, baggagemaster at
the Southern Pacific depot, went to
Newport Sunday and after a day's stay
with his family, who have been there
for a couple of weeks, brought them
home with him yesterday. They are
delighted with the place and would
like a permanent home there. 'They

DISOBEDIENT WIVES
Sheriff Gellately of Benton county
passed through on the noon train
with Mrs. Lulu Smith of Corvallis,
who was committed to the Oregon
training school for incorrigible girls,
this morning at Corvallis.
It seems that Mrs. Smith who ap
pears to be about 17 years old would
not obey her husband in regards to
company she kept and otherwise, and
her mother with the consent and ap
proval of her husband applied to the
juvenile court to have her adjudged
incorrigible, which was promptly done
this morning and the alleged incorri
gible wife was placed in charge of
Sheriff Gellately who took her to that
institution this noon.
