LEAVES HUSBAND
FOR STAGE CAREER
PROMINENT RAILROAD MAN is
GRANTED DIVORCE
James e. Holton Ayers That His Wife
Deserted Him and Joined a
Theatrical COM
pany

His wife's desire to become famous
on the stage induced her to desert him,
and yesterday in the superior court
James e. Holton, travelling passenger
agent for the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul railroad, and one of the best
known transportation men in the west,
asked Judge Allen to grant him a di-
vorce from his wife, Mrs. Anna l.. Hol-
ton, who is now with a theatrical COM
pany in the east.
The couple were married at Spokane.
WASH, December "a, 1899, and they
lived happily together until December,
1901. at which time it is alleged that
Mrs. Holton deserted her husband.
Holton testified that his wife had
been Influenced to leave her home by
excessive reading of theatrical maga-
zines.
At the time of the alleged desertion,
Mrs. Holton, it is alleged, advised her
husband that she was "going home to
mother"
Thomas Jefferson Fleetwood, a
Spring street haberdasher. appeared in
the case as witness, and he corrobor-
ated the testimony of the plaintiff in
every detail.
The evidence was corroborative and
Judge Allen granted the usual inter-
locutory decree of divorce.

ALLEGES CRUELTY,
GRAN TED DIVORCE
LIFE MADE MISERABLE AYERS
WIFE
Courts Are Busy Separating Mismated
Couples on a Great Variety of
Accusations-MayB Be
Going Yet

Because her husband scampered
about the house screaming like wild
man, and at the, same time wearing a
hideous grin, Mrs. Louise Catlin asked
Judge Allen yesterday in the superior
court to unite. the love knot which has
bound her to Calvin Catlin for nearly
twenty years. III"
While the couple lived at Elgin, IL
lnois.. Mrs Catlin told the court that
her husband mended watches in the
factory at that point, but since their
advent into California she declared
that the climate had quite overcome
his desire to perform hard work.
Mrs. Catlin formerly owned the El-
gin hotel, and it was in that place that
her husband, so Mrs Catlin says, made
life miserable.
with weird look on his face he
screamed like a lunatic," continued the
plaintiff, and in a dramatic manner she
told of her escape from her husband
by hurting herself through window
at the Hotel Elgin.
The peculiar antics which were so
vividly pictured to the court by Mrs
Catlin were looked upon by the court
as a mere desire on the husbands part
to be playful, but the divorce was
forthcoming.

HUSBAND MAY BE GOING YET
Left Home, Ayers Wife, and Has Not
Returned

While he did not believe in free si.-
yer, S. l.. Haskins had an opinion OF
his own on the money question, and
when Mrs. Bessie Haskins refused 10
accept the principles of the monetary
platform promulgated by her husband,
argument pervaded the Haskins' home.
To show his utter disgust for the
policy championed by Mrs. Haskins,
her husband left the home, saying that
he was going so far away that letter
would never reach him.
Mrs. Haskins yesterday pleaded with
Judge Allen i'm the superior court to
grant her a divorce.
According to Mrs. Haskins' state
ment, however, her husband absolutely
refused to foot the bills and he told
her she was strong enough and capable
enough to earn her own living.
1t appears from the testimony ad-
duced before the court that Haskins
was close, when 1t came to money. for
he did not even present his wife with
a free policy of life insurance.
When Mrs. Haskins combatted his
views on finance Haskins left for At
lantic City, n. j.
The court judcialy assumed that
Haskins is going yet, and the divorce
was promptly granted.
