/. FOR A CHORUS GIRL
DIR. c. @. Southard Makes No
Defense and Wife Secures
Decree With Alimony


OAKLAND, April 22-Frieda Wisher,
a chorus girl and stage acrobat, was
named in the divorce suit of Mrs. Min
ME z. Southland as an affinity in the
domestic affairs of DR.. c. Q. Southard,
professor of chemistry at the College
of Physicians and Surgeons of San
Francisco and an oculist and aurist
with Offices in the Phelan building and
at 2l07 Dwight way, Berkeley.
The Wisher girl was invited by DR..
Southard to their home as a boarder,
said Mrs. Southard, and she found
them in fond embrace, with arms
interlocking and faces close together.
Efforts to secure secrecy in the
Southland divorce were successful until
today, when an interlocutory decree
of divorce was granted by Judge Har-
ris.
MANY PHOTOGRAPHS FOUND
Thirty-eight photographs of Miss
Wisher in stage and street costume
were found in DIR. Southard's desk.
Mrs. Ross. a house keeper, said she
had told friends that she would never
allow such a charming young lady
about the house on general principles,
but Mrs. Southard. however, had no
suspicious until she found the girl in
her husbands arms. Then she went.
Though DR.. Southard asked his wife
if she would forgive him, things went
from bad TO worse, she said.
Mrs. Southard testified that her hus-
band had failed to provide her with
clothing since April. 1906, and had
permitted his father to order her from
the house on a rainy night.
DR.. Southard offered no defense. The
interlocutory decree carried with it an
order for $40 a month alimony, there
being no children and no community
property.

Married when they were IA years of
age, Mrs. Elvira Feldmann and Mrs.
Stella P. Miller figured in the divorce
courts today. Mrs. Feldmann was given
a final decree of divorce from Edward
Feldmann for neglect, but Judge Muir
ply held that Mrs. Miller had not
proved her charges of failure to pro-
vide against Walter L. Miller.
Interlocutory DEGREES of divorce for
cruelty We're granted Sylvia J. Hester
from Frank G. Hester, and to Lubena
Joost from George Joost.
Edith R. Shaner got an interlocutory
decree from Eugene NJ. Shaner, who
deserted her after his suspicion had
become unbearable and he had her
watched constantly.
A final decree was given to Thad-
deus Mason against Martha Mason for
desertion.
Mary Kelleher sued Cornelius Mason
for divorce for alleged desertion.
Mrs. Carmen p. Schwartz, an incom-
petent, sued William Schwartz for di-
vorce through John J. Naegle, her
guardian. Failure to provide was the
ground.
