Anna G. Fawcett has instituted divorce
proceedings against +. NJ Fawcett, a mem
ber of the firm of Fawcett Bros. dealers
in vehicles and agricultural implements at
l507-l507 Pacific avenue. Suit is brought
on the ground of cruel and inhuman treat
ment. Mrs. Fawcett alleges that she has
been loyal wife, but that the defendant,
regardless of marital obligations, has been
addicted to the Use Of foul ,.ithy and
blasphemous language toward her and has
accused her, in the presence of their chill
dren, of infdelity
Mrs. Eawcett alleges further that he u
an habitual drunkard, at times going on
extended sprees, and that he had threaten
ened to blow her brains out. She states
that unless the court restrains him he may
do bodily harm to herself and the family.
She further alleges that on account Of
notices given by him to various business
houses about town her credit Is not good
and she has asked the court to compef
her husband TO give her $3.50 temporary
alimony and $3.50 suit money, besides re-
straining him from interfering with the
family or disposing Of any of the propersy
Judge Huston issued an order yesterday
evening enjoining Mr.. Fawcett from dig

RULING OF POSTAL OFFICIALS
AFFECTS TACOMA FLAT DWELL

"Mail carriers are not reqpred to deliver
mail to the different rooms or suites in
apartment houses Boxes should be pro.
vided in the lower hall near the front
entrance for the reception Of the mail or
arrangements made for the janitor or some
other responsible person to receive and
distribute the mail for occupants of the
building.
'In office buildings not provided with
elevators, carriers should not be permitted
to deliver mail above the second floor
The above was received by Postmaster
Cromwell from G. A. Conrad, acting fourth
assistant postmaster general, in reply to an
inquiry as to whether the carriers were
required to deliver mail to every occupant
of apartment or tenement houses.
Tramping up and down long flights Of
stairs in the apartment and tenement
houses has been the bane of the letter
carriers existence. In some of the larger
houses, occupied by number of families,
the carrier has been obliged to spend con-
siderable time distributing mail to the
different rooms.
As a result of the ruling given above,
a lot of that work will be cut QUO and
the effect will be to extend the free deliv-
cry system in Tacoma Postmaster Crom-

that Burke is the man who recently served
a 33-day sentence there, under the name
of Adams, for carrying concealed weapons.
Besides a pistol of large calibre, there
was found on him at the time of his arrest
in Chehalis skeleton key and some cheap
jewelry. Burke is said to be one of the
gang of "yegg" men who have been operat-
ing between Chehalis and the Sound for
several months past, and is said to have
been in Jail at Olympia before coming
this way.
Burke's career is being traced through
out the country in an attempt to get a
full record of his action up to date. He
is believed to have served term in the
penitentiary at Joliet, ILL.,, on a charge of
larceny and he is known to have been
arrested in different parts of this state on
various charges.

At s o'clock this morning Policeman
Nelson, while making his rounds, looked
into the window at 1850 G street and saw
a man lying PROSTATE on the floor. The
body was that of f. Tringle, am umbrella
mender. who had made Tacoma his home
for the past II years.
Pedestrians who passed lie place of the
umbrella mender yesterday were attracted
by the sight of an aged and emaclated
man sitting in a chair near the window.
Late in the afternoon a Times reporter
passed that way. and the sight so i'm
pressed him that he hunted up the police.
nan on the beat and together they entered
Ihe building.
1t was evident at a glance that the
Heath of the old umbrella mender was
near. 1t was with difficulty that he an
Iwered the questions put to him by the
reporter, and each sentence was followed

On Monday afternoon the attention OF
Inc county commissioners WAS CdliCu "
the fact that the man was very low.
Commissioner Handle called at the place
and endeavored to induce Pringe to go to

man also refused to see physician. He
had suffered from asthma for many years
md old age had aggravated the disease
that finally ended in death.
Although he had lived in Tacoma for
II years. deceased had no intimate friends,
and to those with whom he talked he
had little to say of his past life. He had
said enough to a few however, to indicate
that he had left his former home on ac-
count of family troubles. When he first
came to the city Pringle made money and
saved it. lie deposited his funds in the
Traders National bank, and when that
institution was wrecked he lost $4,000
This seemed to prove a most discouraging
blow to him, and in after years he never
appeared to be so anxious to accumulate
money.
