A. r. Hauter Secures Divorce From
Wife Who, He Says, De-
serted Him

According to the matrimonial COM
plant of A. r. Hauter in Judge Con-
rey's court yesterday his spouse failed
to meet his expectations, as she had
failed to please her two previous hus-
bands.
According to Hauter's story it APP
pears that Mrs. N. Adele Hauter, the
feminine side of the matrimonial COM
pact, cared little, if anything, for her
home.
Hauter objected, when his spouse
packed her grip and proceeded to ped
ole wares on the road, but his argu-
ments had little effect on Mrs. Hauter,
and becoming dissatisfied with her line
of business she decided to forsake the
avenues of commercial industry, and
accordingly made her debut on the
stage.
Hauter asked for dissolution of the
copartnership of love, and his request
was granted.

WOMAN 'S|DENT|TY
REMAINS MYSTERY
COMPANION OF BENTLEY CAN
NOT BE FOUND
Widow of the Preacher Who Dropped
Dead in a Lodging House Re-
fuses to Testify at
Inquest >,

An inquest over the body of Rev.
G. E. Bentley. who dropped dead in
cheap lodging house on South Los
Angeles street Saturday night, was
held by Coroner Trout at Bresee Broth
ers' undertaking establishment yester-
day. No clew tending to explain the
mystery surrounding the woman who
accompanied the preacher at the time
of his death was developed.
DR.. Campbell was the first witness
at the inquest. He testified to the
condition of Bentley's body and said
all indications pointed to a pure and
wholesome life on the part of, the
minister.
The autopsy on the body showed that
Bentley had suffered for the past sew
eral years from leakage in one of
the walls of the heart, from which
the blood had slowly seeped into the
cardiac cavity, forming a clot of blood.
Mrs. Mary Douglass, landlady of the
lodging house, was the only other wit
ness, Mrs. Bentley refusing to take the
stand.
She testified that Bentley, accom-
panied by a woman of good appear
ance, had applied for lodging and had
dropped dead as he entered the room
assigned to him. The woman who ac-
companied the minister was said 10
have screamed when she saw the man
fall to the floor and cry out that sha
had troubles enough and did not wish
to be identified with the death of hey
companion. She escaped from the
house while Mrs. Douglass was get
ting assistance for Bentley.
The man known as Haines was said
to be cook in a grading camp. He
was the only person left with Bentley
after the death and the police are
looking for him to secure an explana-
ton of the missing gold watch, which
is thought to have disappeared from
the body of the dead man while it was
in the lodging house.
A number of the friends and rela-
tives of the minister have taken charge
of the body preparatory to sending it
east for interment.

FORMER OFFICER GETS
FIvE-YEAR SENTENCE
No Appeal Is Expected to Be Taken
In the Carpenter
Case

G. NJ. Carpenter, after having been
assisted to his feet by Attorney Luther
Brown, was yesterday sentenced to
five years in the penitentiary for kill
ing Christian David Frey at a cooking
main on May / last.
Attorney Brown, on behalf of the
convicted officer, read the affidavits of
several members of the society who
charged Jurors Rowley and Kilburn
with improper conduct.
Ex-Governor Gage in behalf of the
prosecution replied to the brief argu-
ment made by Carpenters attorney
Jurors Rowley and Kilburn filed af-
fidavits. in which they denied the
charges contained in the affidavits filed
by the humane officers in behalf of
the convicted officer.
Attorney Brown briefly replied to the
remarks of Ex-Governor Gage. at the
conclusion of which Judge Smith or
dered Carpenter to stand up for SEN
tence.
The officer was apparently suffering
great mental pain, and 1t was only
after an unsuccessful attempt to rise
that he managed to stand before Judge
Smith.
In passing sentence upon Carpenter
Judge Smith said:
1T is conceded on all hands that
the defendant had no right to use his
pistol there. That is the law. No Of
ficer has a right to use firearms In
making an arrest for a misdemeanor,
or even in preventing an escape from
an officer who has made an arrest for
misdemeanor.

deal Of feeling In this case on the part
