Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Gaffney, March 2.-Upon the
opening of court this morning
Judge Aldrich sentenced Ed
Rainey, colored, to be hanged on
April 18th next. Rainey was con
victed last June of having carnal
knowledge of and abusing child
under Ia so severely that she
afterwards died.
Mr.. Hardin of this bar, who
was appointed by the court to
defend Rainey, gave notice of
intention to appeal, but the same
was abandoned.
Owing to certain testimony
which came out during the trial
large majority of the people do
not believe that he should be
hanged and it is very probab e
that the trial judge and Solicitor
Sease will both recommend that
his punishment be commuted TO
life imprisonment.

MAYOR CONSIDERS AN
ADVISORY CABINET

Mayor Harper is giving some thought to
a plan of holding weekly joint meetings
of all his commissioners and board ap-
pointees to discuss municipal questions
and to get united opinion on pending is
sues.
He has been asked to hold Friday morn
ing sessions at which live municipal
questions may be discussed in open meet
ing at the council chamber.
The idea is a new one for municipalities,
though it has been tried in different forms
in some places.
Some of the commissioners asked in
reagard to the suggestion yesterday say
it q good one; others say 1t will do no
good, as each board holds its own dis
cushions.
1t is possible, however, that the plan
will be given a short trial to see what
the public thinks of it.

A suit of clothes was taken by thieves
Yesterday who broke into the room of w.
c. Rath at the Hotel Senate, sol East
First street. Rath told the detectives he
supposed some one had used pass key
to admit himself to the apartment.
Clothing seems to have become favorite
form of booty for many sneak thieves who
have been operating in the rooming houses
in this city Whenever they find clothing
of value they take it. along with cash and
jewelry. The secondhand clothing shops
are not kept under surveillance by the
police as are the pawn shops, and hence
there is not so much danger of detection.
Though the booty may not be as valuable
it brings IN considerable money to the
robbers.

DECLARES WOMAN
ENT|CED HUSBAND
MRS. MAE PEOPLES SUES FOR
DAMAGES
Tells Story of Humiliation Caused by
Desertion of Home After Ten
Years of Welded
Bliss

With a tale of humiliation, mental pain
and extreme anguish that has seldom If
ever ben heard from the lips of a wronged
woman, Mrs. Mae Peoples, the beautiful
wife of Charles, Peoples, former manager
of the lakewood hotel at Arcadia, yester-
day flied suit in the superior court against
Mrs Abbie Treadwell Hall, asking $4,000
DAMAGES for the alienation of her hus-
bands affections.
After nearly ten years of welded bliss
Mrs. Peoples charges that her happy home
was wrecked and her husband abducted,
enticed and persuaded to leave her and
live apart by Mrs Hall.
The Peoples were married at Youngs-
town, O., November IL, 1897, and came to
California about three years ago. Until
April 9 last, the complaint charges, Pee
pies was a loving and affectionate hus-
band and not so much as cross word
ever passed his lips.
On that date he first made the acquaint-
ance of Mrs Hall. and sne caused him to
spend his spare time in her company, go
riding wiz ler and take her to the
theater.
In paragraph five of the complaint it is
further alleged the defendant caused the
PLAINTIFF husband to go to Venice with
her, remaining away from home all night,
and to come to Los --ngeles, where it is
alleged they occupied the same room at
prominent hotel.
On these and other occasions, it is
charged, that Mrs. Hall enticed Peoples
to spend his money and that of his en-
ployer, without the knowledge or consent
of the plaintiff, and otherwise alenated
his affections rn.-- May l, when she alb
Quoted enticed and persuaded him to
leave and live apart from the plaintiff.
From all of which Mrs. Peoples alleges
she has suffered extreme humiliation,
mental pain and anguish, and asks that
judgment be awarded

of his second venture in matrimony, when
he married widow with three children.
At that time he was widower likewise
with three children, and he hoped that
by joining forces with the widow they
together might be able to have happy
home.
But ne reckoned without his host, FOR
within a very few months after the wed
ding he discovered that his wife, Ida, was
giving his children the husks to eat, while
she fed her own on the fat of the land.
Besides this, she compelled his S-year-old
daughter Ruth to do all of the house
work. while she took her own children
to the beach or gossiped with the neigh
bors. All he asked was chance to take
his children from the unfriendly roof, and
the court granted it.
In far away New Zealand Ethel and
William Franklin were married three
years ago. Franklin was a prominent
official there but even his high position
did not make him immune from detec-
ton, and one day his wife entered his
office just in time to see strange woman
embracing him.
The couple at once agreed to separatae,
Mrs. Franklin agreeing to go to Queens
land, Australia, and thence to San Fran
CISCO wheare her recreant spouse prom
sed to meet her and make amends for
his rash conduct, and at the same time
they would avoid all possible scandal.
Mrs. Franklyn waited eight months,
getting a position as companion with Mrs.
DIR. Wilbur of the University of California
at Berkeley, to provide means for her
support Dr. Wilbur is a brother of Judge
Wilbur of the superior court here.
Despairing of ever hearing from her
husband, Mrs. FRANKLIN came to her
mothers home in Los Angeles and has
ho,. in, bo hirci
ness. She will wait no longer in hope of
possible reconciliation. for she left the
with decree tightly clutched
in her hand.
