THE DIVORCE MILL
A Problem the Poor Are Often Called
Upon to Solve

A complicated case came up before
Judge Smith yesterday for adjudication
yesterday. When Mrs. L. Sicily mar
ried ]. P. Sicily she had two children by
a previous marriage. Mr.. Sicily went
his new wife one better, for he had three
children by previous marriage, but this
discrepancy is made up by the fact that
Mrs. Sicily is about to become a mother
again. In this condition of things Mrs.
Sicily wishes temporary alimony while
she is engaged in getting divorce, but
as her husband earns only $40. week
as a finisher in Mr.. Stern's shop, it was
quite a problem in mathematics for
Judge Smith to struggle with yesterday.
Practically there are eight persons who
in some way will have to live on that
$10.50 a week and the services of doc
tor, nurse and medical comforts, soon to
be needed, will have to be paid for. A
really satisfactory solution of the prob
lem seemed impossible, but Judge Smith
ordered Mr.. Sicily to pay his wife during
the proceedings S. per week. He will
now have to provide for three children
and himself on the very slender amount
of $50.

cree yesterday by Judge York divorcing

IN SLAVERY'S CHAIN
A Young Man of Good Family Fallen
From Grace

F. A. Crown, emaciated of form, filthy
and unkempt, stood up yesterday before
Judge Smith and pleaded guilty to a
charge of burglary and was sentenced to
two years at San Quentin.
His slavery to morphine is Crowns
crime. He did commit burglary, not for
money or goods, but to get some sulphate
OF morphia with which to satisfy the
passion which has fiendish posse ssion of
him. He is the man who was found
by Mr.. Voeckell in his drug store, on
the corner of Main and Fifth streets.
on the morning of the 10Th inst.
Crown had broken a pane Of glass and
gained an entrance that way and was
rummag ging the jars and bottles in a
frantic hunt for his drug when discov-
cred. He made wild dash for liberty
and twice nearly escaped. but was finally
run to earth.
All of Saturday and Sunday night his
cries rang through the Jail. Sometimes
he would shrek and yell like q maniac
from the tortures he suffered by not hav-
ing the relief that the drug gave him.
II will give you time to get cured OF
your habit" said the court, but Crown
did not look appreciative

A MINORS MARRIAGE
Refused License Here Annie Cudde-
back Gets One at Santa Ana

Sea marriages for minors may have
been invalidated, or rather their inher-
ent invalidity may have been made ap-
parent by the recent judicial pronounce
ment, but the fact remains that minors
have few qualms of con science when
they contemplate such an act of folly as
getting married.
Last week telegram was received by
Cupid" Kutz from ]. w. Cuddeback,
at Randsburg, asking that license be
not issued to his daughter, Annie, as she
was only II years old. The next day quite
young fellow walked into the office and
asked for a license. When he gave the
name of his fiance as Annie Cuddeback
be was informed that he could not be
given the coveted document. The matter
ended there, so far as this county is con-
cerned, but accident revealed the fact

A HUMAN BRUTE
The Basque Who Imbibed Too Freely
and Tried to Kill Three People

Jean Bachecho, who ran amuck at the
Palms, was yesterday held by Justice
w. ]. Byrant of Ballona township in
$4,000 bail to answer the charge of as
sault with a deadly weapon in the su-
perior court
The evidence disclosed the fact that
when Bachecho began his wild stam-
pede his wife ran from the house and
was not overtaken by her maddened
spouse until she had reached the fence,
about 25 yards away. He then grabbed
her by the hair and dragged her back to
the house, where she contrived to catch
hold Of the door jamb while shrieking g
murder!
t. L. and R A. Machado were at
work about seventy-five yards away,
baling hay. and, hearing the woman's
cry, started to her assistance. AS they
approached, however, they hesitated
about interfering until Mrs. Bachecho
cried to them: "If you are men, and not
towards, you will protect woman
They then demonstrated with the brute
husband, and drew down his ire upon
their own heads. "I'll fix you - quick, J"
he remarked, and, darting inside, he got
his revolver and popped two shots at the
Machado boys as they ran away, and
one for luck at his wife, who had not lost
any time in fleeing for her life after being
released by her infuriated husband.
On September 7 Bachecho will be again
brought up on the complaint of his wife,
charged with simple assault.

Judgment for plaintiff was ordered by
Judge York yesterday in the suit of {

insufficient and the defendant was dis
charged.

woMAN's SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
Her Only Original Work Relates to
Housekeeping Arts


The most notable work undertaken by
college women in their thirty years of
opportunity is one which is still in its
infancy, but which, when developed, is
likely to do more for that emancipation
for which believers sigh than all the
legislation of men and all the oratory of
women. In the chemistry of foods the
science of nutrition, the sanitation of the
house, the economics of the home, their
work has been both original and thor
oughly scientific. 1t has not only added
something to science, but has opened
up certain new departments in special
sciences. That the one original con-
tribution of college women to the thought
of the world should have been made upon
these lines is pleasing and significant,
for l.. puts the most efficient work of the
educated woman in the same category
with the most efficient work Of all other
women-with those humanizing and
conserving and ella borating forces which
add content and extent to life, and
which are-when shall we be satisfied
to learn it?-just as fundamentally i'm
portant, just as dignified, and Gf we
must also be heroic) just as difficult, as
the constructive and creative forces.
Perhaps, also, the suspicion is to be de-
duced that women are contributing most
helpfully to the world when they are
willing to develop those abilities and
possibilities with which custom, or pre-
judice or nature-call it what you will
has made them most familiar; when
they are not working in the direction Of
greatest resistance; when they are not
pulling up Stream.-Helen Waiter son

live with her mother on ranch at
Tropico. He never gave her cent. and
when she asked him to support her as a
husband should he told her to 'go out
and make money from men the same as
lots of other married women did" He
gave vent TO this devilish bit of advice
to his wife in the presence of Mrs. Todd,
her mother. The latter demonstrated with
the husband for talking to his wife in
such a manner, but the talkingto by the
mother-in-law was of no avail, and three
weeks after his marriage to his 23-year-
old wife the husband took himself off.
Attorney Ladd went upon the witness
stand and stated that he had made SER
vice of papers upon the defendant in
the case while he was patient at the
hospital. He then conceded that the facts
as set forth in the complaint were prac-
tically true but if he had only time and
money he could prove that his wife was

was going away and did not intend ever
to return. Mrs. Young, however, did
not tell the same story to all alike. To
Mrs. Swope she said that her husband
had given her disease ten years before
and that appeared to rahkle in her mind /;
and she complained also of his drinking
habits. To Mrs. M. A. Hoosier she said
she wanted nice clothes and other nice
things and she was going away and
didn't intend to live with her husband
again. To the husband of witness Mrs.
Young, it was claimed, said that she
wouldn't go back and live with her hus-
band, and wished he was dead and rot
ten.
That was the case for plaintiff, but
as the defense was not ready to proceed
regularly couple of witnesses were put
upon the witness stand out of order.
Today the case will be proceeded with,
after Judge Van Dyke has called the
probate calendar in department two.

A He.I1hv Bodv and ! Clear Head

If indigestion, constipation and bilious
ness torment the body, che head cannot be
clear. These disorders react upon the
brain most hurtfully, and produce a
cloudiness in the organ of thought not
experienced by a healthy man. Happily,
these brain-oppressing maladies may be
entirely dispelled by that peerless altera-
tive, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
cheers, refreshes and invigorates the brain
and nerves, while it regulates the organs
of digestion, assimilation and bilious Sc
cretion. 1t expels the morbid humors which
poison the system through the bowels and
urinary passages and exerts powerful in
vigorating influence as well. Its cathartic
action is never irritating, violent or pain
full, but even natural and progressive.
AS an appetizer and sleep-promoter the
Bitters is unrivaled; it mitigates the in
firmities of age, relieves the ailments
peculiar to the gentler sex, arrests pre-
mature decay, and builds up an enfeebled
physique.

James Jeffriesr benefit, to take place
next Wednesday night at Hazards pa

sporting circles. The big boxers popu-
larity will be shown by the large attend
ance that is sure to pack the auditorium.
A most interesting program of sport has
been arranged, being two four-round
goes" and two en-round contests on
the bill, besides the chief event of the
evening. This will beth ix-round ex-
hibition between Jeffries and a San
Diego heavyweight, who is said to know
how to handle himself.
Solly Smith, the wonderful little feath-
erweight, is not going to stay on the
coast without giving his old Los Angeles
friends chance to see him. He will give
an exhibition on Friday at Hazard s
pavilion, and promises to make a rare
evening of sport. Archie Levy, Smiths
manager is now looking for some clever
local men to go up against Solly on Fri
day night, one for six rounds and the
other for four rounds. In addition to
the featherweight Levy has Tom Lam
sing, a fast heavyweight from New York.
Lansing will try and get bout with
some local man for the evening. Levy
and Tom O'Rourke, little DiXon's man
ager, have just concluded signing arti-
cles for match between the two little
fellows for a $4,000 purse, a side bet Of
$2500 and the championship of the world.

Growth of Manufacturing

Manufactured articles now constitute
over 25 per cent of the total exports from

within period of ten or fifteen years half
Of the exports will be products of the

strated that the facilities for making
goods of nearly every sort in this coun-
try can be increased much faster than
the home consumption of them can grow.
