MERELY TO SCARE HIM.
Sophie Olsen's Scheme to Make Her
Husband Return Home and
Be Good

Sophie Olsen applied at the Police Court
yesterday, asking to be furnished with a
spurious writ of arrest for her husband on
the charge of desertion.
She was informed that she could swear
.out a charge against him if she chose,
but that all the warrants issued there
against recreant. husbands were in dead
earnest, and not for purposes of intimida-
ton.
On hearing this Sophie absolutely refused
to swear at all, but she repaired to General
McComb to see if he could not intimidate
her julius.
The story she told was pathetic one.
Julius Olsen was her second husband,
and during their married life he had at
divers times given her two split heads and
four black eyes, but she loved him as
if he had been the most indulgent of hus-
bands.
Its not being beaten. / mind" said
Mrs. Olsen, shut he says now he cannot
waste his time any more with an old bag,
and since Monday he has refused to come
to our home, 749 Brannan street."
She added that julius was in work, but
it was not his money she wanted, but his
return home though she would rather
lose him than see him arrested. General
McComb detailed an officer to demonstrate
with the recreant Julius.

The Central Free kindergarten and the
