Mrs. Botkin the past conviction is swept
aside and the ground is still wanting.
The final decision of the court is the only
thing which will set these matters at rest,
and 1t will be expectantly awaited.
Outside the immediate suit of Mr.. Bot
kin for a divorce, interest divides with
that of Mrs. Clara Arbogast, one of the
most important witnesses against the de-
fendant murderess. Only a few days ago
Mrs. Arbogast secured a divorce from her
husband Mrs. Arbogast was a conspic-
uous figure in the Botkin trial, and 1t was
stated during this case that Mrs. Botkin
had told Dunning that her husband want
Mrs. Arbogast Mrs. Arbogast is now
free and Botkin seeks his freedom. Will
they wed when time sufficient has passed
or are the stories told on the witness
stand based on fiction and not on fact?

A GRASS WIDOW
Husband Brings Suit
for Divorce.

Mrs Cordelia Botkn's troubles are
many. Imprisoned for murder, she mas
but few joys, and now her handlcapped
welded bliss is to be taken from her- es-
terdav afternoon Melcom A Botkln nieu
suit for divorce from his notorious Wl1e'
alleging as a cause OF action thdI MIS-
Rotllin has been convicted of felony.
Mr.. Botkin refrained from setting forth
In his complaint his wife's questionable
relations with John 2. Dunning, huspaho
of the woman for whose death Mrs. BOT
kin stands convicted and for which she in
all probability must do penal serVltuoe
during her remaining days.
Mr.. Botkin AYERS in the complaint that
he married Mrs Botkin on September 26.
1872. December 80, 1898, he continues, Mrs.
Rotkfn was convicted of the crime or
murder in the first degree. and on tebru-
arv 4 1899 was sentenced to life lmpr1s-
onment in the State prison at San Quen-
tin. The issue of said marriage is one
son, Beverly Botkin, aged 20 years. Hence
the plaintiff asks that the bonds of mat
rimony now existing between nlmselt ana
Mrs. Botkin pe dissolved.
A peculiar question Of law arises from
this suit Although Mrs. Botkin has been
convicted of a felony, and the statute
makes such a conviction grounds for di-
divorce on this ground prior to the deter
mination of the legality of the conviction
by the Supreme Court?
Yesterday Mrs. Bothn's attorneys filed
their bill Of exceptions to the judgment
heretofore entered in the Superior Court.
Judge Cook granted the District Attorney
twenty days in which to file his proposed
amendments to the bill When this is
done the matter will be carried to the
Supreme Court for final adjudication, and
in event the higher court orders Judgment
suspended, which will practically kill the
effect of the conviction temporarily,
doubtless lengthy argument will follow
regarding the right of Botkin to secure
a divorce on the ground named, even
though no opposition is expected from
Mrs. Botl1in. If a new trial is granted

the Non-Partisans had determined to con-
test the validity of the primary law much
surprise was OccasiOned. 1t was gen
orally presumed that they would be the
first to give such law their earnest and
united support. Those who can see
through political milestone when there
is a hole in it now assert that the Phelan
cause was seen to be in danger through
the compulsory primaries. If they alb
jured the primaries the Non-Partisans
would simply become an indorsing con-
Vention and would lose all the power and
prestige that accompanies the appearance

ballots. Hence the prompt determination
to take action to have the primary law
annulled.

have to meet such adversaries as Colonel
James F. Smith Of the Fighting First of
California or Assessor Dodge, or possibly
both.

SCHOOL BOARD
HOLDS A VERY
BUSY SESSION
Attention Given to
Many Matters.

At its regular monthly meeting last
evening the Board of Education made no
move toward further economy by looping
off the heads and salaries of teachers in
the department, and every one breathed
easier when It adjourned. The meeting
was one of the quietest and most busi-
ness-like held for some time. The mem
bers did not go into executive session, as
the various recommendations and deci-
sions were settled the night before, when
the different committees met.
Only once during the session did the
proceedings attain any degree of excite
ment. It was upon the introduction of a
resolution by Chairman Brandenstein Of
the committee on qualifications Under
the resolution special teachers in the de-
uartment would at the annual examina-
ton held on March "a be compelled to
take the examination and take out spe-
cial certificate in the branch she was
teaching.
Directors Head and Gedge opposed its
passage and the latter moved that the
resolution be laid on the table. On a vote
being taken the result was to g. In the
hurry TO complete their business no FUR
ther action was taken on the resolution,
which read as follows:
Resolved. That all teachers in the San Fran
cisco School Department holding regular teach
ers' certificates but engaged in teaching spe-
cial subjects without special certificates en-
tifling them 10 teach such special subjects,
must secure necessary special certificates at the
regular semi-annual examination OF teachers
commencing March "A, 1882
The board modified its rule that a pri-
mary school must have fifteen classes
in order to be entitled to a vice principal
by reducing the limit to fourteen. Ihe
effect of the modification IS to permit the

board that she had been appointed to the
