TEMPLE STREET BIDS
TO BE READVERTISED
COUNCILS ERROR CAUSES
ADDITIONAL DELAY
Protests Against Paving Proposition
Must Be Heard and New ordi-
nance Passed Repeating the
Former Measure

Because the council overlooked a
technicality the paving Of Temple
street between Belmont avenue and
Burtz street must go back almost TO
the point of beginning.
The contract for this work was
awarded recently to the Barber AS
phalt company, but as soon as the
company's attorney looked over the
proceedings he found a defect and the
Barber company was released from its
obligation.
The city attorney says the council
failed to secure jurisdiction to order
the work done. The statute requires
that protests against the size Of the
assessment district be set for hearing
and notice given by the clerk to all
protestants In this case the council
fixed the time for hearing at o'clock,
September 8. There was no quorum
present at that time and consequently
no council meeting. The matter was
not again taken up by the council.
In order to cure this defect the city
clerk next Monday will advise the
council that the protests against the
assessment district have been filed and
will Law the objections before that body.
II viii then be the duty of the council
to set these protests Tor nearing not
later than one week from the time OF
fixing the date. When the ordnance
ordering the work is passed II will IN
clude a clause repeating the FORMER
ordinance ordering the work and When
all this is done the board again will
have to advertise for bids.

DESERTION CHARGED

FOUR DEGREES ARE GRANTED

Three Husbands Leave Their Help

Two Women ignore Their
Marriage Ties

Five divorce suits. all Of which were
based on desertion charges. were heard
IN the superior court yesterday. Four
DEGREES were granted and one denied.
Mrs. Hattie Wadsworth said her hus-
band deserted her more than year
ago, after telling her he was not the
kind of a man who should have VIE.
HE telephoned me one evening, salo
Mrs. Wadsworth, asking me 10 meet
him In town and said we would go 10

condition and took him home. Wmle

back door"
Mrs Wadsworth said she saw her
husband in the city jail after his arrest
in April, on a charge of indecent con-
duct. A few days later he forfeited
bail and disappeared. A decree was
granted.
mrs. Gertrude Blake said her hus-
hand. Raymond Blake, deserted her
three weeks after he lost a position IN
1905. that he went TO Calaveras county
looking for work and after desultory
correspondence, continuing few
months. nothing further was heard
from him. She was granted decree.

from Cleveland. Ohio, and two years
later Mrs. Chase returned to her east
ern home to make a visit. He said his
wife wrote she could not be happy IN
California and refused to return. Chase
was given a decree.
Al decree was denied to Mrs. Adelaide
M. Walter, who charged Ed Walter,
her husband, with desertion. Mrs. Wal
ter came to Los Angeles two and one
half years ago by order of her ply
sician. The fact that she had corre-
sponded with her husband as late as
March last was sufficient, according 10
the courts ruling, to prove she had not
lived in California the length OF time
required by law before a divorce action
may be flied.
one divorce suit was filed-Elizabeth
Clark against John w. Clark.

UNDUE INFLUENCE IS
BASIS FOR CONTEST
SUIT TO BREAK MRS. MITcHELL's
WILL Is FILED
Case Is Brought In Favor of Lucille
Bedford, the 4-Year-oId crand-
child Of pecedent, Who Was
Cut OF with IS

Undue influence exercised on the
mind Of a dying woman is the allega-
ton on which the contest of the will
of Mrs. Susan Glasswel Mitchell will
be based when the trial begins in
Judge Wilbur's department of the su-
perior court tomorrow morning.
Judge Cyrus F. McNutt, at one time
an attorney for Mrs. Mitchell and now
guardian ad litem for Lucille Bedford,
Mrs. Mitchells granddaughter, Is the
contestant. He charges Mrs. Lucy
Lambourn, the child's aunt and guar
dian, exercised undue influence on Mrs
Mitchell, secluded her from friends and
took advantage of her feeble condition.
Mrs. Mitchell died December 28, 1907.
She had inherited from her husband a
large estate, which increased in value
to nearly $250,000. For a long time be-
fore her death she lived with her
daughter, Mrs. Lambourn, and to-
gether they worked for the welfare of
the little girl, Lucille, 4 years old,
daughter of Mrs. Eileen Bedford, Mrs.
Mitchells youngest daughter. Mrs.
Bedford, just after her divorce from
Charles A. Bedford in 1906, committed
suicide in q Phoenix hotel, and, accord
ing to Mrs. Lambourn, IL was to pre-
vent Bedford from securing any share
in her mother S estate that Mrs. Mitch
ell bequeathed to her surviving daugh-
ter all her property with the exception
of s5, which was left to the child.
After a bitter contest between Bed
ford and Mrs. Lambourn concerning the
guardianship of the girl, in July she
was given into the custody of her aunt,
the evidence showing Bedford was a
gambler, was dissipated and unfit to
have charge of his daughter.
According to Mr.. McNutt, he was
called to the Mitchell home in May to
make a will for the old woman. He
declares he refused to write the tnstru-
ment at that time, owing to the mental
condition of Mrs. Mitchell, and later
was informed by Mrs. Lambourn he
need not return, as his client had
changed her mind.
The will, which is contested, was ex-
.ecuted in October, a month prior to
Mrs. Mitchell's death, and is the third
instrument of its character which was
made by the woman. The second will,
by the terms of which the property
was to have been divided equally be-
tween Mrs. Lambourn and Lucille
Bedford, is the one which the con-
testant claims should be admitted to
probate.

ASKS COURT TO DISMISS
MONEY ExTORTi0N CHARGE
Arguments on Question Are Com
cIuded and Police Justice viii
Render Decision on Motion
Next Week

Argument on motion to dismiss the
complaint charging A. A. Talmage,
manager of the Pittsburg-Sait Lake
on company with attempting to extort
money from Ray d. Robinson, dentist,
was concluded at 1880 o'clock yester-
day morning. Police Justice Selph,
who has the matter under advisement,
promises to render his decision on the
motion Monday. If his finding is ad-
verse to the contentious of Talmage' s
attorneys the latter, it is expected, VIII
begin the introduction Of evidence in
behalf of their client.
With the exception of two questions
propounded to DR.. Robinson, no testt-
nony has been taken in Talmage's de-
fense. In reply to these questions the
dentist said he never had committed a
crime and feared no exposure of his
past acts.
on these replies Attorney Jud Rush
based his argument for dismissal, stat
ing, in substance, that as the dentist
could not be injured by any publication
the charge was not well founded.
Deputy District Attorney John North
argued against this view of the case,
quoting from long list of authorities
covering similar cases.

for $500 damages, but this was denied

The petition for writ of mandamus
to compel the board of trustees of the
Savannah school district to acquire
additional ground on which to erect a
new school building was granted by
Judge Wilbur yesterday.
The petition was filed by c. G. Steele
after a number of meetings, at which
Sherman citizens had voted down the
proposition to move the old building
to a new site. Bonds to the amount of
$4,000 had been issued for the new
site and building, and when the
trustees, after the proposal to use the
old building was rejected again by the
citizens, tried to continue the work.
The controversy was taken into the
courts.
