NOW COMES
 THE DIVORCE Troubles of the BacOnS to Be Brought Up in
 Court. Moyoxy YAoro oP MonpioI
Many Years of Married Life Have Been Passed in
 Quarreling.
The Future Welfare of Six Children Is Also to Be Legally
 Arranged.
Oakland Office San Francisco Can,

sos Broadway. Jan. IS.
 Mrs. Mamie c. Bacon has determined to force matters in the family litiga- ton. She has asked to be divorced from her husband, Frank P. Bacon, and charges him with desertion and failure to provide.
 The Bacon family troubles have been in the courts for a long time, and clearly show that the various members of the family were unfitted to dwell to- gether in marital unanimity. The first time Mir. and Mrs. Bacon went into court was because of a fight between them as to how much it should cost to run the family household. The case was bitterly contested and all the de- tails of butchers bills and candy bills and all other trifies were aired before the court and the task was imposed on the judge of finding out how much a mother and six children should devour with normal appetites. During this trial 1t was shown that almost from the wedding day the house had har- bored two people of belligerent natures rather than a couple dwelling together in unity
 About five years ago H. D. Bacon, the father of Frank P, died and left an estate valued at nearly a million dol lars. The heirs were his widow, Mrs. Frank Soule, Miss Ella Bacon and the man now defendant in a divorce suit. Soon after Bacon's death Frank P. and his wife separated and she was given separate maintenance, but little by lit tie her husband reduced the amount until she went into court and again the needs of the wife and her family were all aired before Judge Ellsworth.
 About this time Mrs. Bacon executed peculiar movement. Without inform ing her husband she dismantled the Bacon homestead and moved to other quarters, and when he went to the house he found it deserted and even the furnishings and fittings had gone. Mrs. Bacon declared at the time that it was necessary for her to rent a smaller house and try to increase her income by leasing the larger one. Up on her showing in court Bacon was ordered to pay her s250 a month. He defaulted in this and week after week orders of examination and similar pro- ceedings added to the family scandal and the affidavit mill was set to work until all the secrets of the Bacon troubles were made puofic.
 Now that divorce suit is filed some definite distribution of property must be decided upon, and should Frank F. Bacon file a cross complaint>the family difficulties will be delved into more deeD1v

A ClOthier Suffers From an Unex- pected Visit Last Even
 ing.

The police were notified last evening that old-time window smashers and pocket "dippers'' had visited the premi- ses of M. Cohen's clothing store at 22S Sixth street, but were fortunate enough to have escaped without arrest
 About midnight a crash was heard in the neighborhood and Officer Cooney hurried to the scene. He discovered that a large plate-glasS window, valued at $500, had been smashed in, presumably with the idea of stealing some slight ar ticles, which shows the desperate char acter of the men.
 The proprietor of the store lives up> stairs, and after hearing the crash ran downstairs, but his efforts were without avail, as the culprts had fled. The police are now Investigating the case.
