"COP" FLINT MUST
PAY HER ALIM0NY
Half of His Salary a.
Policeman Goes to His
Wife.

Judge Humphreys heard testimony
on a motion for temporary alimony
Saturday in the Flint divorce case, and
as result Captain Harry was ordered
to pay $40 out of the $50 which he says
is the extent of his income as captain
of the harbor police besides $40 costs
and $50 temporary alimony.
Mrs. Flint appeared in court together
with her small child and told of her be-
lief that her husband earned in the
neighborhood of $3.50 in connection with
his duties on the waterfront and on this
showing Judge Humphreys ordered
Flint to pay out the alimony.
Flint filed counter affidavit to that
presented by Mrs. Flint on Saturday in
which he denied that his income
amounted to more than $50, the sum
paid him by the police department, and
as a reason for not paying her alimony
4 he alleged that his wife had become a
/ hard drinker and was in the habit of
staying out late at night and consort-
ing with people of bad reputation. He
also said that when he had left his
home it was because Mrs. Flint had
made life there unbearable and that he
nad pald the rent III advance ana RELY
$25 with Attorney w. A. Henshall for
her. telling her of this fact both orally
and by letter. With F'lint's affidavit is
one from High Sheriff Brown in which
he says that Flint receives from the
police department the sum of but $S(
per month for his services as harboi
policeman.
After hearing the statements of the
parties in interest Judge Humphreys
thought Flint was able to pay his wife
at least $40 per month out of his earn

Ship Erskine NJ. Phelps sailed for San
Francisco on Saturday with perhaps
the largest cargo of sugar ever taken
from the Hawaiian Islands in sailing
vessel She carried carried 500 tons or
81. 900 bags of the sweet commodity.
Notwithstanding the fact that Captain
Graham had great trouble in securing
a crew. he nevertheless managed to
ship twenty men without the aid of
the crimps. The captain was terrible

required these necessary articles.

Graham will before very long be the
master of vessel even larger than the
Erskine NJ. Phelps.
