KENT CHARGED WITH
BIG LIQUOR PROFIT
Donor of Muir Woods and OPP
pOnent of Saloon Taken
to Task

SAN RAFAEL Jan. 6.-That William
Kent, donor OF Muir woods and an act
i've opponent of the existence of saloons
at Kentfield, makes a profit himself by
the sale OF liquor at the tavern on Mt
Tam alpais, West Point and Muir woods
tavern was publicly charged today by
Attorney James Keys before the county
board of supervisors
The declaration on the part of the
attorney was the outgrowth of warm
fight being waged by Kent and num-
Der of other persons in the fashionable
suburb against the granting of saloon
license to John Ferris, proprietor Of
the Senate saloon, about block from
the public school at kentheld.
Though no charges were made against
Ferris or the manner in which he con-
Quoted his saloon, strong petition was
presented to the board asking that the
license be not renewed because of its
proximity to the school
Kent had just finished his address,
in which he averred that the saloon
was a detriment to the town, when
Keys took the floor and said: mo
charges have been brought against the
applicant whom 1 represent However,
| because he runs a small saloon at
Kentfieid and is not stock holder in
the giant corporation that runs hotel
with bar attachment on the top OF
Mt. TamalpaiS 1t is made to appear
that he has no right to make his living
by the sale of liquors Because he is

poration that owns a tavern right on
the edge of Muir woods where liquor
IS dispensed run around in automobiles
and get a petition against him to de-
prive him of his means of livelihood
Kent Is a large stock holder in the
Mt Tamalpais scenic railroad. After
the supervisors went into executive
session Kent explained the matter by
saying II am a stock holder in the
corporation, but 1 am not director.
Besides, the taverns are not saloons
but hotels. and liquors are served in
the same manner as in the hostelries
in San Francisco"

CHURCH DIVIDED BY
ATTACK ON TRUSTEE
fractional Fight Follows Charge
of Improper Attentions to
Woman Delegate

BERKELEY, Jan. Ga factional
fight. as a result, it is alleged, of the
relations between N Dematty, a trus-
tee OF the Bethany Congregational
church of this city, and Mrs. L. r.. Har-
rington, wife of one of the most promi-
nent supporters OF the church, during a
recent visit to Sacramento, where they
represented the church In annual con-
ference, has divided the congregation
into two camps.
NJ. Dematty, who was ono of the or
ganizers OF the church at Carlton and
California streets, claims victory for
his faction. as the Harrington family
have withdrawn their support, al
though some OF that faction still stand
by it's colors.
Rev. r. Evanston, the new pastor of
the church, refuses TO be drawn into
the controversy, which may be aired
in court, as Dematty insists that he
has just grounds for a suit for slander
against the Hsrringtons and their sup
porters.
Harrington and Dematty were chosen
as delegates from the local church to
the conference OF the Congregational
churches at Sacramento, but at the last
minute pressure of business forced the
former TO send his wife as a proxy.
She travelled In company of Dematty
and they had rooms at the same hotel.
Demetty is accused of improper atten-
tions TO Mrs Harrington at that time
Mrs Harrington refrained from men,
tioning the subject to her husband un-
til recently, when she told OF the al
legged advances, and as Dematty made
strenuous denial the local congrega-
ton took sides in the fight and Har-
rington withdrew.
Harrington refused to make a state
ment for publication tonight, but De-
Inatty talked freely. He said that Har-
rfngton was insanely jealous OF his
wife, with whom he said his relations
had been perfectly proper. He con-
.tinusd:
AT no time did 1 act otherwise
than as q gentleman L have been mar
ried for 25 years, and my sfriends re-
spect me for my actions, which have
