WILTSHIRE AND HIS WIFE
PROFESSOR OWEN THE Ex-HUs-
BAND NOT UNHAPPY.
He and Wiltshire Still Do the Damon
Pythias Act-Owen Calls at His ex-
wife's House and Teaches His Daugh-
teri

Henry Gay Wiltshire was last year and
before familiar figure in Los Angeles.
He was a congressional candidate on the
Nationalist ticket and he had for a part
ner al several outside ventures Profess
sor Owen, who had a beautiful wife.
At tie close of the political campaign
Mrs. Owen secured divorce from the
professor by his consent and married
Wiltshire.
"No one knows" says a socialist
friend. "and none ever will know what
it cost Owen freely to give up to his
friend the woman he had loved. 1t was
better for her, however, and he argued
that if she could not love him he had
no right TO hold her. He found no fault
with Wiltshire for his part in the matter,
and declared that he would continue
their friend after the marriage. Shortly
after the campaign last year, just when
they we're most prominently before the
public, Mrs. Owen became Mrs, Will
shire by contract. The bride and bride
groom left Los Angeles for the east i'm
mediately afterward, and Owen and his
1O-year-old daughter remained behind.
They followed to New York in few
days, and after further conferences the
daughter was put in charge of the
mother. Before the Wilshires left New
York for the summer, Owen went to see
them regularly, teaching the little girl
French and German and looking after
her education generally. The industrial
question and the marriage question are
closely allied, argued Mr.. Owen, and no
woman should be kept in bondage by
any man, either as wage-worker or as
wife. When for any reason husband
and wife cannot agree, they should sepa-
rate openly and honestly. Women
should have equal rights with men, but
the men today do not agree with this
proposition. A time will come when
they will"
This transformation of Mrs. William
G. Owen into Mrs. Henry Gaylor Will
shire, it may be remarked, has not been
attended by any disturbance of the
Damon-Pythias relations that have ex-
listed for many years between the men
who are now her first and second hus-
bands.
Mr.. Wiltshire is at present sojourning
in the Adirondacks, accompanied by his
wife, and is seeking rest and recreation
and paving board to the summer land
lords after the conventional fashion OBJ
served by the ordinary everyday human
contingent. But Mr.. Wiltshire is an in
terestipg personality outside of the fac
that he offers in himself the uncommon
union of bloated bondholder and an
enthusiastic champion of socialistic
theories. He illustrates in notably di-
rect and startling fashion the most "ad-
vanced" nineteenth century ideas re-
specting the marriage relation. and yet
at the same time offers the illustration
without raising any issue between him
self and the state. ,-ya

ON THE LANKERsHIM RANCH.
No Ejectment, No Government Agent,
No Explanation.

@sS INPAaAA&tAOhs
A number of men who had been
among the claim-takers on the Lanker-
SHIN ranch were in town yesterday, and
were in an extremely dissatisfied frame
of mind. They were in the position of
a man who starts to take step at the
top of stairway and finds no step to
take, and they are mad. They report
that some of the settlers have already
tired and left their claims to take care
of themselves, while those who are hold
ing out are alternately kicking because
they paid out fifteen dollars for nothing,
or objecting because Mr.. Lankershim
does not turn them off his ranch. They
went there expecting to be first elected,
then to have an exhilarating legal fight
and finally to settle down on their

BUSINESS SLACK.
Abolition of Constables' Fees Materi-
ally Reduces the Arrests.

There are only forty-two prisoners at
the county Jail. This has been the aver
age in the past six months. A couple of
years ago there were never less than
three or four hundred prisoners. In
those days the deputy constables and
there were scores of them-received a
certain amount on every arrest made.
Since that was done away with, arrests
have not been so frequent and poor un.
fortunates are not any longer thrown in
on the slightest and flimsiest excuse.
The saving to the county in feeding the
prisoners alone would aggregate many
thousand dollars.
