A sensational divorce suit was filed in
the Superior Court to-day by Anthony
Simous the well-known mining man
against Augusta Simons who before mar
rying him was the wealthy widow of the
late Charles Kramm Sr, the brewer
The grounds stated in the complaint
which was prepared by Attorney ]. ].
Scrivner, are cruelty and desertion, and
the Jrial of the suit promises to create
a stir in the local German colony.
Simons was formerly part owner in
the Anchor Brewery at Temescal, which
is now owned by Councilman Charles
hramm Jr., and his three brothers In
May 1895, the widow of the brewer
created considerable surprise by announc-
Ing her intention of embarking once more
on the sea Of matrinlony. She had but
shortly previous engaged Signor Peano
local sculptor, to fashion in bronze and
gold bust of her late husband, Charles
hramm. which had been duly installed
in prominent niche in the parlor of her
home. and during the same month she
married Simons.
Both parties owned considerable prop
erty and their joint worth was estimated
at over 100000 Mrs. Kramm- -Simons
sons, ranging in age from 16 to % years
were opposed to the match from the very
beginning, but their protests proved of no
avail.
The season of marital bliss. however
ran smoothly for about eight months and
then, according to Simons complaint the
VIE began treating him haTshly and in
humanity. and the sons, who are physical
giants did all in their power to make life
miserable. Simous charges that the sons

In the following March Simons went to
Alaska in search of more fortune When
he returned eight months later his wife
slammed the door in his face and told him
TO get out, because she wanted no more

AS his second cause of action Simons

serted him. He asks the court for a de-
cree of divorce. and that property, located
on Grove street. which he ayers he pur-
chased subsequently TO the marriage. be
decided TO him, and for $500 attorney
fees and costs.
The summons in the suit was promptly
served on Mrs. Simons this afternoon by
Deputy Constable Sullivan. and it is whis-
pered that she will file warm answer.
Some Of her friends say that she had to
use her own funds to support herself
after marrying SimOns, and that the lat
ter refused to spend any of his money,
but had married her solely to get
whack at her fortune.
