PERJURY CHARGE
IN DIVORCE SUIT
HUSBAND Is ACCUSED OF
SWEARING FALSELY
Mrs. Arthur Dickey Is Granted a De-
cree-Judge Advises District
Attorney to Prosecute
Defendant

Numerous have been the domestic
troubles of the Dickey family and the
climax was reached yesterday in Judge
Conrey's court, when the judge ordered
Mrs Dickey's attorney to take steps
toward the prosecution of Dickey on
the charge of perjury.
Several months ago Arthur Dickey
secured divorce from his spouse in
the superior court at San Francisco.
At that time Dickey swore to an affi-
davit, in which it was charged that the
whereabouts of his spouse was a mys-
terry, but three days prior to the grant
ing of the decree, it is charged, Dickey
mailed letter to his wife, who was
then in Los Angeles.
Subsequently Mrs. Dickey employed
the services of an attorney. The decree
was set aside and the case was trans
ferred to the courts of this county.
Mrs. Dickey filed a suit in the supe-
rior court Of this county, charging her
spouse with desertion.
Yesterday she declared that Dickey
had left about three years ago. for the
ostensible purpose of purchasing an
electric lighting plant in the north,
Time passed and no word was re-
ceived from her spouse until one day
about six weeks ago.
Mrs. Dickey was planning for a
touching reunion when word came
from San Francisco that her spouse
had proved unfaithful to her and had
dissolved the matrimonial union in the
courts of that county.
Judge Conrey asserted that from the
facts in the case it was apparent that
Dickey was guilty of having sworn
carelessly, recklessly and negligently
to an affidavit. upon which he was
enabled to secure a service of the pa
pers by publication and thus keep the
subject ''on the quiet"
The court instructed Mrs Dickey's
attorney to take the case up with the
district attorney OF San Francisco

blocks that were not well done and sub
stituted good work. Now, according
to Garrett, the property owners stu
object to the work on the ground that
different blocks are of different colors.
Il should be very glad, gentlemen,
said Superintendent Hanley, addressing
the board, ito pass this responsibility
up to you"
Chairman Kern allowed twinkle to
appear in the corner of each eye. and
then he made a speech. You are the
gentleman," he said, addressing Han
ley, that the people have selected oy
a comfortable majority to look out for
their streets. The board feels that you
are entirely competent to deal with the
situation"
Hanley accepted the solution of the
difficulty with the best grace possible
in the circumstances and will try to
reach decision that will satisfy all
parties. Meanwhile the contractor is
waiting for his money.
Bids awarded for street work were:
F. w. Whittier, improving Brooklyn
avenue, $5SSS; r. II. McCray, Thirty
eighth street, $1,191.SO; j. P. McCor-
mick, Boylston street, $1,0S4.SO.

SAYS HUSBAND ROBBED PANTRY
Old Soldier Forces Entrance to Family
Larder

1t was not easy for Mrs. Elizabeth
Lovejoy to supply the. household culi-
nary establishment, and when her
spouse, Lewis T. Lovejoy an old
soldier, skirmished about the front
gate il a suspicious manner her sus-
picions were aroused.
Finally Lovejoy executed flank
movement as he had done at Gettys-
burg and Missionary Ridge, and he
managed to gain entrance to the
pantry
The feminine side of the copartner-
ship of love could think of nothing
more satisfactory than the courts, and
as a result she asked Judge Conrey
yesterday to grant her a divorce.
She asserted that her spouse was
capable of putting two or three gin
mills to the bad, all of which caused
her considerable chagrin.
From the story told by the witness,
however. this did not satisfy her
spouse, and he then deserted her, all of
which tended TO crate upon her nerves.
AS Judge Conrey is not a military
man. he was not able to see any par
tlcular virtue in the tactics employed
by Lovejoy. in absconding with the
butter, eggs and cheese, and the di-
vorce was granted.

HANLEY MUST ACCEPT
OR REJECT STREET WORK
Is Compelled to Become Responsible
for Improvements Made During
Term of His Predecessor

The fate of the acceptance of street
work done on Darwin avenue, between
Griffin and Thomas under former
Street superintendent Werdin now rests
with Street Superintendent Hanley.
The board of public works so decided
yesterday afternoon.
Attorney l.. r. Garrett, representing
Contractor M. S. Cummings, who did
the work several months ago, appeared
before the board 1t seems that the
work was not well done in the first
place and that Hanley made some re-
pairs.
Hanley's repairs included the rails
ing of low places in the pavement and
the patching of weak or thin parts Of
the work. The property owners then
protested that the work was of differ
ent colors and did not present har-
monious appearance.
Hanley then undertook to remove this
objection by removing some entire

WOULD MAKE AN
AMERICAN VENICE

A sarcastic letter, addressed to the
council, has been filed in the office of
the city clerk. The communication,
which is anonymous, calls attention to
the watery condition of West Pico
street, and by implication reflects
upon the administration of city affairs.
The communication states that as
distinguished and influential citizens
we are deeply interested in the welfare
and development of the city. We de-
sire to call your attention to a natural
attraction, which, with small expense
could be made the chief feature for
pleasure seekers and tourists"
This great attraction is then ex-
planned as a plan for making use of
the food waters now alleged to be
flowing down West Plco street. The
suggestion is made that as the street
is now natural waterway, 'ff few
gondolas were placed thereon with
bands of Italian music, this portion Of
the city would become attractive and
thereby the city would become more
celebrated than Venice.
1T might be of some inconvenience
to people living along the shores of
the waterway, but some of them have
already provided themselves with
boats and the rest will undoubtedly do
so In the near future.
1--WE therefore petition your honor
able body that the name of West Pico
street be changed TO Grand Canal; ;
that a bridge of sighs be constructed
at each crossing with grandstand for
Italian musicians, and that a number
of gondolas, both male and female, be
placed along the canal for the pleasure
of tourists and the relief of those liv-
ing along the shore and who are not
able to paddle their own canoe"

chants and Manufacturers association
expressed the opinion that all collec-
tlons of garbage should be placed under
the jurisdiction of one department and
the powers of the inspectors should be
greatly restricted.
President Norton of the Good Gov

Of segregating the garbage in New
York, and said that much of 1t was
finally converted into fertilizer. DR..
Powers explained the operation OF the
present system.

OF commerce described some garbage
wagons he had examined at the s..

A MERCANTILE CHaNGE.
General Robert Bullock Baco meS a
Member Of the helvan ston- Glitch
Pssteur Company

1t will be seen from the subjoined
letters that a change has been made
in the Helvenston-Biitch- Pasteur Co.,
General Robert Bullock having pur-
chased the interests of DR.. Bitch and
Mr.. Maloney and is now partner in
the new concern.
General Bullock is too well and
duction or words of commentator at
our hands.
In making this move it may be
news to some of our readers that the
general is not taking up new bust
ness, but is simply going back to an
old one. When the Ocala Banner
was first established, now nearly
forty years ago, General Bullock was
already merchant, and the firm of
4. Bullock & Company did pros
porous business and was recognized
as the largest house south of Jackson
vile.
In returning to his first love we
pope that he will become even more
prosperous.
we see no reason why the new
m should not mount high the lad
uer OF success for it seems to us that
all winds are favorable for its doing
so.
Mr.. Helvenston, the senior member
{ OF the firm, has been all his life a
merchant and has studied the trade
IN all its phases. and has thorough
" mastered it and no chemist is
more familiar with his laboratory.
The same thing can be said of the
Junior member, Mr. Pasteur.
Both these gentlemen are not only
conscientious business men, but they
are industrious, sober and attend
strictly to business, making it a rule
Vi their life to be business, and
nothing else but business, first, last
and all the time
with these facts and factors in their
lsvor 1t seems to us that it goes with
vue saying that their enterprise will
nave excelsior written all over it.
We invite the attention of our
uers to the following letters, which |
