MATRIMONIAL
ADVENTURER
ConfeSSeS to Have Welded
Twenty Women.
Got Their Money, Then Skip
ped---Is "a and Good
Looking.

San Francisco, July 21.-It is all
over with Christian Johnson, the Ger
man horse buyer and bigamy expert,
champion to date of all his kind.
johnson was taken to-day from San
Jose, where he was convicted yester-
day, to Sam Quentin prison, to serve
sentence of seven years. When he
has served his term most any city
or village in the country can claim
him at will and send him away on
another charge of bigamy. He says
that he has married 50 many women
that he cannot remember them all,
He was able to-day to recall twenty
of his victims but as his list consists
with only two exceptions of Western
women, and as he is known to have
operated heavily in marriage vows
in New York and New Jersey and
New England it is believed that the
twenty represent less than half of his
actual wives. He does not include
Miss Julia A. Frederick, of Freeport,
L. a., whom he married in 1900, de-
camping next day with $1,000 of her
money.
Johnson is sixty-four years old,
portly and fine looking and despite
the handicap of years, is known TO
have married eight women since
November, 1905. His lovemaking
has been on even more generous
scale and according TO his own state
ment he courted ten Portland Ore,
women at ore time but married only
one Of the lot. In probably hundreds
of instances he merely made love
to women and skipped away with
some of their money varying from
5000 to several thousands.
Johnson dates the beginning of his
criminal career three years back, but
as the marriage with Miss Fredericks
took place nine years ago, and he
came 10 this county In 1871. there
is 10 telling how long he has made
a living by the role of lover. Gin
1906" he said, Il quit my business Of
buying horses, and from that day to
this time | have been making MY liv-
ing by marrying making love to wo-
men, ge ting their money and desert
ing them"
Johnson was known as John Mad
son, John C. Anderson and c. o.
Moeller, and it was under the name
of Madison that he married Miss Fred
ericks. He said that at first he was
a woman hater, having been separa-
ted in Germany from a sweetheart
who later died. 81 married only one
woman under the name of Madison"

remember rightly-Ada Jones. got

deserted with. being his first and only
