Gave Her Husband Two Chances, But He
Would Not Reform.
Sierra N. Watson was yesterday granted
a divorce from James w. Watson, a travel
ing salesman for wholesale linen estab-
lishment.
The marital troubles of the pair have
been aired in the courts several times.
Mrs. Watson secured a divorce once be-
fore because of her husbands habitual in
temperance, but on his promise to reform
and after he had taken the gold cure the
parties were remarked. During the pres
ent trial it was testified that the defendant
only kept his promise for few months,
when he reapsed into his old habits.
While the first suit was pending Watson
spent some time in the County Jail be-
cause of his refusal to obey an order of
Judge Hebbard as to alimony.
The parties were married in San Luis
Oblspo in 1879 and have two children, the
custody of whom was awarded to the
mother. Judge Hebpard also ordered
that Watson pay his wife $75 per month
alimony and $3.50 counsel fees.
Some property in Cayugas, which Mrs.
Watson decided to her husband, is also
in controversy.
