AGREEMENT CAME HIGH
Mrs. Gottleber's Stroke of the Pen
Worth One and Half Acres

The suit of Joseph H. Spires against
Max Urbahn and FranZska c. Gottleber
was decided in favor of plaintiff by
Judge Shaw yesterday. 1t was an action
upon an agreement signed by the second
defendant to deed to Spires, a right of
way agent of the Pasadena and Los An
geles Railway company, a strip of land in
her 171s-acre tract on the Santa Monica
line, for right of way of its electric track.
She further agreed to deed to Spires, free
of incumbrance, IL acres of the same
tract, provided the road went into oper-
alton. Afterward, however. Mrs. Cott-
leber transferred her property to Ur-
balm, the latter knowing, according to
Mr.. Spires, of the agreement the lady
had entered into.
Mrs. Gottleber admitted signing the
contract, but pleaded that, by reason of
her lack of acquaintance with the Eng
lish language, she had been entrapped
into giving away IL acres of land when
she thought she was only signing for
right of way, but on the stand she showed
considerable knowledge of the language
and of business. 1t was also made per-
fectly clear that Urbahn, who was pres
ent at the time of the making out of the
papers, knew to a certain extent what
the terms of the agreement We're. The
court decreed that the defendants be re-
quired to execute to Mr.. Spires deed to
the land, and if such were not possible,
that they then pay him $3.50 damages.

The supreme court has decided in the
matter of William and Mary L. Wright
represented by Brooks & Trask, who ap-
piled for u writ of habeas corpus that the
judgment of the justice of the peace be-
fore whom the applicants were tried, is
not void and that habeas corpus pro-
ceedings do not lie. For those reasons
the writ was denied. The Wrights had
1iled an affidavit that they could not OBJ

LOZIER'S TWO WIVES
How Mary Discovered That Sarah
Had Been Laid to Rest

Mrs. Mary M. Lozier was granted q
divorce from Frank W Lozier yesterday
by Judge Shaw, on the ground of his
adultery with woman now in the grave.
The case went by default.
The parties We're married at Houston,
Tex. in May, 1881, and came to Los An
geles several years ago. About three
years ago. Mrs. Lozier. being unable
to bear with her husbands irascible tenn
per, left him and sought housework to
support herself. Lately she has been re-
siding at Santa Monica.
A little over a month ago Mrs. Lozier
was sitting in Central park and a gar
rulous old gentleman occupied the seat
beside her. Lozier happened to pass by
with companion, and the old man,
pointing at him, said: Look at that poor
man; he has recently lost his wife, This
staggered Mrs. Lozier very much, be-
cause she was absolutely aware that she
was not dead yet. She set about max
ing inquiries and found out that her
husband had not remained disconsolate
and alone when she left him.
She learned that Lozier, who is a Jour-
neyman painter by trade had taken
rooms in the spring of the year at 91S
South Los Angeles street, kept by Mrs.
Z. j. Eeffner, with woman whom he
introduced as Sarah e. Lozier, his wife.
There they remained, living quietly and
lovingly, until the beginning of October,
when the woman sickened and died. and
was buried by Booth & Boylson, the
South Main-street undertakers 1t is
said that Loziers grief at his loss was
quite pathetic
When the true Mrs. Lozcr heard all
this she instituted divorce PROCEEDINGS
and had the summons served upon her
husband. lie returned it to her with q
message written in pencil upon it, which
began: We'll, Mary, you have made a
fine lot of trouble for Yourself" Then

was true, although he admitted that he
and Sarah had dwelled in the same room.
He concluded thus: Il hate to see you
give all of your earnings to the lawyers,
but you have willed it so, so suppose
you will feel better when you are Bust
ed. When 1 saw you the last time l
thought you looked Grossly. Now 1
know you are"
Although Mr.. Lozier hated to see his
wife part with all her earnings to the
lawyers, he had no hesitation in getting
once S110 from her himself, after they
had separated. Mrs. Lozier said.
