Juan cuts an important and pathetic fig

Albert Stencil was a typical Western
speculator on earth, native of Provo,
Utah, with wien face. rather spare fig
ure and sharp swapping eyes that seemed

STOLE HER LOVE.
Donald Ross Accused of
Betrayal.
o. F. Dahlstrom Wants $4,000 for
the Alienation of His Wife's
Affections.

suit has been filed IN the Superior Court
which looks like being sensational in character
when it comes up for hearing
Donald Ross OF the firm OF Ross & Hewlett,
commission merchants, is made the defendant
in the action, and from his prominence in local
circles an added interest Will be given TO the
particulars. he case Is one of woman's frailty
and mans Geartless betrayal ana all that mar
the romantic side of the story is that substan-
tIal damages are asked for as balm to outraged
feelings.
The plaintiff is o. f. Dahlstrom, who accuses
MIR. Ross OF betrayiDg his wife and causing her
to exchange her la ppy home, husband ana Two
children for life OF misery
Dablstrom asserts 10 his complaint that in
1888 he wrdded Miss Matilda Erickson. They
were perfectly happy together, the marriage
being one prom Dted by love- aud had two chill
dfen, boy aud girl, aged and years re-
spectlvely.
zen years after their marriage it Is charged
that blight fell upon Dahlstrom's happiness
in the person of Donald Ross. Dahlstrom at
he time was living with his wife and family at
Point arena, Mend0cno County, and til os-
teDsible object of Mr.. Ross visit there was the
completion OF certain business negotiations
While there TIL complaint alleges Tn al Ross
pu mis- ielsute moments to such purpose that
by means OF arts, wills and false representa-
tIons concerning the plaintiff on the one
band, aud concerning what he Che defendanu
would do Tor Mrs. Danlstrom on the other, he
persuaded Mrs. DahstrOm TO leave her home
with him, thereby accomplishing her moral
ruin.
This hesrtess conduct has so completely
broken up DahlstTom's life that nothing less
