May Become Reconciled.
VALLEJO, August 14.-Badly wor-
ried over the letter from the Navy De-
partment saying that he must face an
other board of inquiry for his part in
the domestic trouble of Naval Construc-
tor Holden A. Evans and his pretty
wife, Lieutenant Wayne Osburn left to-
day for his father 8 home at Eugene,
Oregon, to secure advice from his folks.
After many weeks of effort, Construc-
tor Evans has secured from President
Taft assurance that another board of
! inquiry will be appointed or that the
board which sat at Mare Island last
May will be reconvened to hear the new
evidence which Evans has been able to
secure in the case.
Mrs. Maud Evans. the divorced wife
of Evans, who gave up her family and
her position in society to become the
wife of Osburn, has been here for two
months, following short stage career.
She has visited the Evans home on Mare
Island daily and is constantly with her
children. That she will testify against
0sburn at the coming hearing is adj
nlltted by her friends. Mrs Evans is
very bitter against Osburn because she
claims that after making violent pro-
testations of love to her, which caused
Mrs. Evans to allow herself to be di-
voreed, Osburn refused to support her
until the divorce laws of the State
would allow them to marry. Osburn told
Mrs. Evans several weeks Ago that it
was all a mistake.
Rumors of reconciliation between
Evans and his wife have been current
here for some time, but are denied by
both parties. Evans was in San Fran
cisco today and could not be seen.
Helped Hawaii's Rife Team.
| When Colonel Jones and the rifle team
| of the Hawaii National Guard arrived
at San Francisco, they were met by rail
road representatives., who escorted them
to their train, and the boys left for
Camp Perry in special car. All along
the route they found they were the re-
! cipients of special attention, and learn
| ed that orders had been received bv
railroad officials from the big men of
| the various systems over which they
rode to treat the Hawaii rifemen in the
| best possible manner. Orders even
came from President Brown of the New
| York Central system. Colonel Jones
found out who was responsible for all
| the good things coming their wav. and
writes to Major B. B. Ray, the local
Army 'paymaster, thanking him for it
alt Major Ray is an oldtime railroad
man and stands high with the leading
railway officials of the country, and he
dropped notes to various official friends
to see that the Hawaii delegation had
the best going. They got it.
