THIS WIFE TELLS
AMAZING STORY
SAYS SPOUSE GAMBLED, DRANK
AND WAS CRUEL
LONG LIST OF TROUBLES
Mrs. Jessie Plough Ayers That She
Was Dragged About by the Hair
and Otherwise Mis-
treated

Because. as she alleged her husband
kept a quart bottle of whisky on the
mantelpiece, attended dog and horse
races, quarreled with her three times
a weeks regularly, called her an In
dian, dragged her from the house by
the hair of the head and beat her and
then deserted her, Mrs Jessie Plough,
nee Shirley, yesterday began suit for
divorce from her husband, Harry c..
Plough, in Judge Trssk's department
of the superior court
The couple were married in Los An
geles in 1888, and since that time, ac-
cording to the complaint of the wife,
her life has been one of constant mis-
cry. Following their wedding the cou-
pie lived with Mr.. and Mrs. Shirley,
parents of the woman, on Bay street.
They then took up housekeeping and
according to the testimony their trou-
bles then began.
Mrs. Plough testified that her hus
band who has been a clerk in a Los
Angeles store. started to drink and al
ways kept a quart bottle of whisky on
the mantelpiece. She further testi-
fled that he later started to bet his
money on coursing dogs and play the
races at Ascot park with an occasional
game of poker on the side
Say He Beat His Wife
About five years ago, according to
the testimony of the neighbors, Plough
became enraged at his. wife because
She would not sign certain papers and
knocked her down and dragged her out
on the porch, where he slapped her
face. This testimony was also given
by Harry, the 15-year-old son of the
couple. My father and mother were
quarreling nearly all the time and
must have quarreled on an average of
three times a week. said the boy
MY father always kept a bottle of
whisky in the house and when he was
quarreling with my mother called her
nearly all the swear words that there
are. He frequently called her an In
dian and a dago."
Mrs, Plough corroborated this state
ment and further testified that on
Labor day of 1908 her husband packed
his trunk and left her without sup
port and that since that time she has
been compelled to earn her own living
while her son stayed with his grand
parents.
The defendant has filed a cross COM
plant and will contest the action
against him. Witnesses in his behalf
will be heard today and it is under
stood that the defense will endeavor
to show that Plough was supporting
his invalid parents.

OBSERVATIONS or A
ROR-CHURCH MEMBER

The writer is not member of any
church, but is regular attendant.
One could scarcely witness the awk-
ward condition of affairs at one Of the
prominent churches in our city last Sun
day evening without commenting there
on. The hour for the beginning Of
church services is eight o'clock, and at
that hour the pastor was alone In bis
church, and it was almost quarter af-
ter before single member of the church
was there to encourage him in his work
by their presence. To say the least Of it
this is shameful state of affairs in so
respectful and intelligent community as
this is and there is no excuse for it.
How in the world can church workers
expect sinners to come to church when
those who are supposed to lead in this
noble work are not interested enough to
to attend themselves
Had there been crowded auditorium
there could not have been disappointed
one there, and you would have been much
happier for having gone. 1t is hoped that
especially those that are church mem
bers will make the little sacrifice necces
sary to come here after. Come and help
hold up your PASTORS hands, encourage
him with your presence, set the example
worthy the relation you hold with your
church, and you will surely profit by it.

A Point on Bread-Making.

Although l have made entire wheat
bread for years. l have just learned
something new about it. Sometimes
the bread will not be as good as usual.
1t will be tolerably fine grained. but
it will seem hard and clammy, and the
flavor will not be quite what l like.
have discovered that when the bread
is like this it is because it did not
rise quickly the second and third times.
set the bread at night, and in the
morning it will be well risen, usually
then cut it down and let it rise
again. 1t should come up quickly, and
when it does | knead it and put it in
the pans to rise once more before bak-
ing. If it does not rise quickly, but
is slow and sluggish, l cut it down
again end put it in a warmer place,
then it usually comes up quickly, as
1t should. and the result is bread that
is light, soft, tender and of good flavor.
| think this may be the trouble with
many hOusekeepers who do not sue
coed with entire wheat bread.-Rural
New Yorker.

but 3 unable to obtain them, though
there are hundreds of immigrants ard

it may be- There is work and whole

CYCLONES in Jamaica.

Terribly destructive though cyclones
are there are occasions when they
have a beneficial effect Some little
time ago Jamaica was swept by a
cyclone from end to end and the de-
struction it wrought was estimated at
nearly three millions The community
bravely faced the situation, and now
recognizes that even a hurricane is not
without its blessings The fruit sea
sons have been more favorable since
the cyclone than experienced for many
years past. "A hurricane" says the
acting governor of Jamaica, appears
to assist in promoting fertility of the
soil The total destruction of the
banana crop and the attention com.
pulsorily given to clearing cultivation
have resulted in yield in the last few
months of much finer grade of fruit
than had been exported on so large a
scale previously."- Y. Herald.
