Divorced from MiIlison.

Jennie Millison was yesterday granted a
divorce from Theophilus Mllison and the
custody of their daughter. The case, which
was of rather sensational character, came
up in Room 1, Superior Court.
Millison lived with his wife and child on
Broadway The evidence showed that he
became infatuated with woman named
Minnie La Dana, and declared that he did
not care to live with his wife longer He
made no attempt to resist the proceedings
for divorce There was charge that the
husband of the La Dana woman threatened
to sue Millison for damages. but finally
agreed to give UP his wife to her new adj
mirer for $500. The money was raised and
La Dana made himself scarce. The Milli-

ON A TECHNICAL POINT
INSURANCE POLICY TAXATION CASE
GOES OVER TILL OCTOBER.
Attorney General Did Not File His
Brief i'm Time-GeneraI Harrison
in Federal Court.

The oral argument which was to have
been heard by the Supreme Court yester-
day morning on the question of taxing life
insurance policies was thrown over to Oc-
tober next by technical point brought up
by the attorneys for the life companies.
Having obtained an injunction in the lower
court preventing the tax officers of the
State from assessing the policies, they be-
lieved that this would prevent the work of
listing them this year. They therefore in
sisted upon a rule of the court that is sell
dom observed, requiring the appellant in
case to file his brief at least ten days
before argument AS the case was only
appealed few days ago, the attorney gen
eral did not file his brief until yesterday,
and the argument thus went over as this
was the last day of court before the sum-
mer vacation.
The Supreme Court, however, upon the
application of the attorney general, granted
a supersedeas modifying the injunction
granted by the Marion Circuit Court so
that, while auditors are still enjoined from
placing policies on the duplicates, the as
SCISSORS are still permitted TO list them so
that they can be placed upon the duplicates

Rebecca A. Hooker, who was married to
Henry H. Hooker in 1878 in Morgan county,
has brought suit for divorce in the Marion
Superior Court. Hooker is charged with all
sorts of bad conduct. The couple have four
children, the eldest of which is eighteen.
The plaintiff alleges the first six months
of their married life was very happy and
that the defendant began to abuse her.
She says he has beat her and the chill
dren, and flew into a rage and struck her
once because she would not chastiSe their
infant child for crying. Two years after
their marriage, she says, defendant fell
into the habit of talking to the servant
girl of a neighbor and when the plaintiff
spoke to him about it, he became enraged
and struck her. The plaintiff ayers Hooker
left her several times, but always came
back penitent and full of promises to do
better. She gave him opportunity to mend
his conduct. but he failed in each instance.
Hooker it is claimed has accumulated lit
tie money and has refused his children edu-
cational privileges. He has been especially
cruel, she AYERS, to their eldest child AL
bert Two weeks ago the plaintiff says
Hooker attacked her with a handSaw. She
asks for the decree of divorce and an order
restraining Hooker from molesting her.

LOS ANGELES THEATER-There
unity that govern the giving of good
operate performances. There are times
when principals, chorus and orchestra
move together to the admirable present
ment of a delightful production. These
conditions, and this symmetry was strik-
ingly manifest in the exploitation of the
Black Hussar last night.
Of all Milloecker's operas, the Black
Hussar will stand favored for it's rich
suggestions of waltz music, it's colora-
ture, and it's rich harmonic combinations
ing tone pictures. The fantastic alli-
ance of religious theme with the
dreamy witchery of the waltz in the
first act, together with the broad, So
nOrous. swinging, rhythmic progressions
Of the opening choral movement are ever
welcome and delightful when adequate
ly presented. We feel that we but ex-
press the judgment of the large audience
at this theater last night when we say
that the Grau company gave us the best
production of the Black Hussar 1t has
been our pleasure to hear in many years
1t was, by far, the best work as whole
this company has yet given us, and
its artistic merit commends it most
strongly for repetition later in the week
The only point of criticism lies in the fact
of the orchestral brass mistaking the
broad latitude allowed by the composer
for unreStrained liberty to tOOt their
horns with a wild, fiendish inspiration,
in season and out of season.
The third act of the Black Hussar was
written simply to give mere license to-
its being called a third act. For this
reason it has even been adopted for in
terpolations, and the songs of Alice
johnson, Alice Carle and the funmaking
of Field. Clayton and Miss Lodge gave
most jocund and rounded body to the
skeleton last night.
We like Mr.. Dunbars Helbert very
much. In mary essentials he is super
ior to Wilkie in the part. He looked,
acted and sang the role His love duo
with Minna was beautifully rendered
His opening aria too had all the grace
of high artistic finish and feeling. Alice
Johnson as Minna was an impersonation
that delighted. There is pure, limpid
quality in Miss Johnson's voice that fas-
cinates the fancy. Her execution is ar
tistic, there is flood of feeling-and
the sequence is the soul of melody. Alice
Carrie as Rosetta gave us piquant and
original conception in which her high
dramatic talent was most happily allied
with her sonorous dramatic voice, rich
with its suggestions of deep feeling.
Miss Lodge admirably presented the
oddities of Barbara and was a potent
factor in the comedy. Mr.. Felch scored
his best work in Hackenback-a trying
role, and Mr.. Clayton made notably
clever and unctious Pifr Row, Mr.. Lett

The Times Raw Assertions Con-

THE OFFICIAL BOARD MEETS
And Declares Its Relation to the

Resolutions of Cordial Support Passed.
Deliberate Misrepresentation by
the Buzzard-Some Disclosures

There was a meeting of the official
board of Simpson tabernacle at the par
sonage last evening. OF the seventeen
members of the board fourteen were
present and they took some most sig
niticant action. One thing they did in
formally was to denounce in unmeasured
terms the fake story the Times printed
about DR.. Mclean last Saturday, and the
resentations the same paper pub
lished Sunday concerning certain men,
bers of the board. Informally the
board members who were named in the
second article declared that they had
garbled shamefully.
The formal action of the board was of
more Importance. That was the passing
Of this resolution by unanimous vote:
Resolved, That the cordial relations
existing between the official board of
Simpson church and DIR. C. C. Mclean,
our pastor, and the esteem in which we
have always held him, remain un-
changed, and that the rumors of his re-
moval from the pastorate are absolutely
false. F. LEE FULLER,
Secretary.
Thus is one of the latest of the Times
fakes ripped wide open, and that papers
disregard of truth is again exposed.
Meanwhile DR.. Mclean feels as joyous
as the racking pains of his rheumatism
will permit.
Some exceedingly interesting disclos-
ures regarding the true inwardness of
the Times attitude toward Dr. Mclean
and the Parkhurst movement are prom
ised in the near future by those who
know all the facts. The revelation of
the Times infamous treachery to those
whom 1t had pretended to take under the
shelter of its buzzard wings may make
spicy reading, but 1t will be nothing new
to those who are familiar with the meth
ods by which such birds befoul even
their own nests.
