New Phase Of I temperance Work,

On Friday evening at the Congre
gational church, at 8 O'Clock, E. j
NJ. Newcomb, national lecturer iOl
the Woman's Auxiliary Kelley
League, will speak ON the aims Ol
the organization. This body is
composed of women whose rela tive.
and friends have taken treatment at
some Kelley institute for the liquor
and drug habits. Thankful for the
recovery Of their friends and kindred
they seek others without friends
and provide means for them to take
the treatment. Many OF it's mem.
bers belong to the w. G. Il. u, and
I. q. G. II. 1t has now q member.
ship of 5000, and is doing work not
handled 1y any other temperance
society. Out of 100000 who have
taken the treatment, 95 in a 100 re.
main cured. The work of the league
is on the plan of the good Samar.
itan, and is doing much good.
Owing mainly to the efforts of the
Womans Auxiliary League, the last
legislature passed bill providing
for treatment OF incbriates by
counties. The bill provides that, a
man desiring to avail himself OF it's
benefits, shall ma Ike application to
the proba tie Judge, setting forth the
fact that he is, through the use 81
liquor. incapacitated for selfsupport.
This claim must be verified by two
reliable witnesses residing in the
same county. After investigation
the judge may order the individual
sent to such institute as the county
commissioners have designated for
that purpose. If he goes and re-
ceives treatment, he is required upon
leaving the institute, to give his note
for the amount of his acknowledgements
which the county has been to in his
case and board, up to, but not ex-
ceeding the sum of 800. In many
states this is straight gift. but in
ours it is a loan, and the note is.
after specified time, collectable the
same as any other note; the business
being en- tirely in the hands of the
probate Judge. The bills of the CON-
mjssioners cover transportation and
expenses Of any sort or kind which
they may have incurred Oh his &C
count in landing him at theinstitute.
The bill of the institute is for treat
ment simple. When these bills have
been examined and passed upon by
the Judge, they are then to be paid
from the county funds to the
amount Of 500 for each individual
case, or as much less us the case may
admit,

bona fide marriage ceremony, to be per-
formed upon the stage in the presence of
the audience. The parties who have
chosen 10 enter life's canoe from this at
mosphere of the artificial are Miss Carrie
Clarke Ward and Carl Berch.
Both are we'll known and popular
members of the profession. The cere-
mony will take place at the new Turner
hall during the comedy of A Country
Girl.
1t has been fully ten years since Miss
Ward made her debut on the California
stage. but it took but short time for her
to win a warm place in the hearts of the
people. She early attracted attention by
her clever soubrette work. her charming
singing and sweet winning manners.
Her name then was Carrie Clarke. At
this time one of the favoritc actors of the
California public was starring in roman
tic drama and Irish plays James Ward
soon heard of the charming little woman
and became attracted oy her cleverness
and beauty. An attachment sprang up
between them--not one OF those cases Of
purely Platonic affection so frequent
among mem beIs of the theatrical profess
sion-but something deeper AM more

For some eight years the dove cote was
smooth and downy and Mr.. and Mrs. Ward
were pointed out as glorious and shining
examples of marriage as success. AS
their marital com bination had proved
such success. they likewise com bined
talents and started starring together.
But it was not for very long that this
Joyous state of marital happiness and
worldly prosperity was to continue.
cloud finally appeared on the Ward hori-
zon in the person of a Young actor who
was engaged to support Mr.. Ward and his
charming wife. This acquisition was am
bilious, handsome and appeared IN juve-
nile roles. His name was Carl Berch.
friendship between Mr.. Berch and
Mrs. Ward ensued. which, as happened
before. deepened into something more
serious. In other words, the star became
interested in the juvenile support. Mr..
Ward finally observed the progress of
this attachment, and his jealousy became
aroused. Quarrels, which are always un-
pleasant, became very frequent between
Mr.. and Mrs. Ward until she decided to
seek recourse in the courts. and about
SIX months ago kreceived a decree OF di'
vorce.
Mrs. Ward became quite favorite here
last year as leading lady in the Lawrence
Hanley stock company at the old Granu
opera house.
Mr.. 8erch is we'll known in the east.
and also on this coast, for his artistic
acting and general good fellowship. He
has recently filled an engagement as lead
