VICTIM OF CRUELTY.
Aentzler's Complaint Against Her
Ex-Husband.

Ex-HUsband.
On complaint of Mrs. Mile KentzIer
justice Neagle issued a warrant Yesterday
ior the arrest of Joseph Kentzier, her di.
sorced husband, upon a charge of assault
ana battery. Mrs. Kentzler complained
that when she went to Kentzler's home at
the loot OF Market street, to see her two
children yesterday. Kentzler took from
her her third and youngest child and
after assaulting her, kicked her out into
the street. Kentzler will be arrested
today.
The history of the Kentzlers' troubles
dates back over a year. Mr.. and Mrs.
hentzer formerly lived in Montana. A
year and half ago Mrs. Kentzler OBJ
tanned divorced from her husband
IN Montana. on the grounds of cruel treat
ment, and was awarded the custody of
ner two children, little bog and girl. A
lew months later the father made his an
pearance and stole away his children by
night. Mrs. kentzler learned that they
had been brought to Seattle, and followed
immediately. Having left at home babe
out q few months old, she was unable to
earn living for herself, and wandered
ABOUT the city in a half-dazed condition
looking for her children. The third night
after her arrival in the city atender-hearted
lawyer found her crouched in a dark
doorway OF closed store, sobbing and
crying. She had had nothing to eat since
her arrival in the city, and was almost in
sane Inc lawyer learned her story and,
taxing pity on her, secured a room and
PAID Tor her board. He afterward located
.he children and then succeeded in secur-
ing from Judge Lichtenberg an order
citing kentzler to produce the children in
court. Kentzler, who is an expressman,
was defended by one of the best lawyers at
the bar, but the judge awarded the chill
dren to the mother.
The case was appealed to the supreme
court, and, pending its decision, the
mother remained in the city. Her health
improving, she secured work as do
nestle. She was finally taken sick, how
ever, and for several weeks was in Proyi-
dence hospital. suffering from typhoid
fever, and for time was not expected TO
I'VE. The supreme court finally decided
that the father should take the children.
In the meantime the mother recovered
and was joined in Seattle by her mother.
who brought Mrs Kentzler's younger
child with her. Mrs. RENTER and her
mother were preparing to leave for Mon
tana in few days, and before going away
the former secured permission to see
her children. She went out to their faith
er's home yesterday afternoon and brought
her youngest child with her.
She returned to the city shortly after
and called ON the prosecuting attorney in
IN excited frame OF mind and wanted
kentZler arrested. She said that she had
been in the house but few minutes when
he seized the child which she held in her
arms, and, after abusing her. kicked her
out into the storm and closed the door
with slam.

THE RULE DISCHARGED.


an Administrator.
Judge Lichtenberg has rendered an opin-
ion in the matter of the estate of John q.
Ssgeiisn, deceased, In which he decided
tina: III cases where an administrator has
paid ont the moneys of an estate prior to
an order of the cour: requiring him to nav
the moneys into court, that the rule re-
curing the administrator To be attached
and imprisoned should be discharged.
The tndse's opinion was as follows:
Ire administrator o. said estate having failed
and refused 10 pay over to the clerk CT this
court, IN complianee with the order OF the court,
sae money specified in said order, rule was is
sued 10 show cause why ''he should not nav the
said money, as provided for in said ord n: upon
his failure 20 DO SO, why he should not be at
tached and imprisoned until such order was
compiled with" Upon the return dsy
the administrator fled his answer setting
s-rth inter ALA, "tha. he gave
god and sufficient bond duly approved"
I'd that "the sureties are abundantly able 10
Pet all demands and liabilities OF the principal
- sad bond" and "that he Ia a poor man aud
has no property subject to execution; that he has
raais every effort IN his power, by argument
eatrsaties aud persuasion TO induce the parties
&c whom and on whose claims he paid out the
money Of said estate, to refund the same, but
shE' they have neglected and refused so TO do"
and that she neither used nor con-
Te:t.d TO his own use any of the
money or property of the estate;
tast lie has paid all of the moneys in his posses
s:on belonging to the estate into court; having
neither money nor property he cannot comply
with the order OF the court" These facts as
we'll as the entire answer of tho respondent are
admitted. Under this state of facts the rule
must be discharged, the remedy being TO dis
charge the administrator, appo.n. new admin
is;rstor and he to commence proceedings against
the saretics. See sections LIS, i,432, Code ST.
And now iowit: December 20. 1891, the rule is
DISCHARGED
