Tho prbhlbl tlon bill passed the senate Tuesday by a vote of 29 to 1, being adopted sub stantially as it camo from the bouso. A disputed clause limiting to fixed amount tho ulcohollc beverages that may bo purchased outside of Oregon by a family, regardless of tho number of adult members in tho family was retained.

Hepro- IS HOFFMAN LOSES DIVORCE CASE In n decree, handed down In tho circuit court this morning by Judge F. M. Calkins, Graham Hoffman Is granted a full and complete divorce frotn his wife. Florence Hoffman, and given tho eustody of tin two chil dren, ago four and sl cars, In the finding Mrs. Hoffman Is re buked by the court, one passage read ing, "How any normal woman can um pect the court to give her tho custody of two small children, to tako out of tho Jurisdiction of tho court to San Francisco In the faco of admissions she tins made on the witness stand Is beyond comprehension." The call of the big city Is upon Mrs. Hoffman for In another paragraph the court says, "It also appears from the evidence that she Is (Unsatisfied with her lot In life, that she yearns for city life, nud Is arbitrary and unreason able." The allegations of Mrs. Hoffman that her husband wns cruel, and re fused her medical attention, the court holds have not been sustained. The third allegation that "ho did not love her, and wns sullen and morose." the court holds, may have been tho result of her own conduct. The allegation of tho husband "that tho wlfo was Intoxicated In the office of n Medford business man," and that sho wrote an endearing letter to one Clifton O'Drlen," arc sustained. Tho divorco suit was of particular Interest to Medford people, owing to a number of local people being di rectly and Indirectly Involved as wit nesses. Mr. Hoffman Is a traveling man. The couple separated onco be fore, nnd re-marrlcd. T Tho city council at Its regular meet ing Tuesday night turned down tho request for the expenditure of $7o a month for a pollco matron, as asked by tho W. C. T. U. and Greator Med ford club, upon tho plea that It was "too heavy n burden upon tho tax pa) ers." Those who voted against tho measuro compromised, by offer ing to put It up to the people at a spe cial election. It was also argued that Medford was too small for a police matron. It would have been her duty to care for women arrested, and to adviso young girls. Mrs. T. A. Howell made a plea for tho appointment of a pollco matron, holding that one girl saved from way wardness warranted tho "burden" on the taxpayers. Chief ot Pollco Hltt son said that there wero plenty ot theories as to tho causes of wlldness among young girls, but that parental Indifference was tho main cuubc. Tho city pnrk was held to bo a meet ing and trystlng placo for men and girls. Councilman Mcdynskl opposing tho appolntmont of a pollco matron said "Medford was painted blacker than she was," nnd that tho expense would not bo Justified by the results Colonel Sargent and Mr. Maun fav ored a police matron.

Phlpps against tho city for tho non-collection of as sessments of scwor district 13, which embraces the district adjacent to North Hivcrsldo avenue, will bo ap pealed to the stipromo court. Tills decision was reached at tho meeting of tho city council Tuesday night. Tho suit has been a thorn in tho side of threo previous councils, and will bo tho same in tho present ono. In tho meantlmo tho assessments are hold up, and the interest accumulat ing. No action was taken by tho coun cil on tho lighting proposition of tho Koguo Itlver Public Sorvlco corpora tion of Gold Hill to furnish power to the city upon n wholcsalo basis, un til the suit of tho California-Oregon Power company against tho city in tho federal court Is sottled.

On this phase of tho question much tlobate cen tered. The measure now awaits the slgnnturo ot tho governor.
