A sun-burned party OF campers ar
rived in from Lake PAMELA on yes
terday evenings train. They were
Mr.. and Mrs. j. S. Wyant, Mr. and
Mrs. Jim Wilson, Mr.. and Mrs Sam
Morgan, Dr. Roy Byrd, Louie Josse
and Billy Prunk. Most of the party
left Salem for the Mt. jefferson
country three weeks ago and they are
all enthusiastic over that section as
an outing place. The scenery is
grand, the beautiful lake almost at
the snow line of Mt. jefferson. and
the fish almost inviting themselves
to jump at a fly. Billy Warner went
out with the party but owing to busi-
ness had to come in a week ago.
NJ. A. Goethe, a fine amateur pho
ographer, who furnishes pictures for
Sunset, Outing and other magazines,
was with the party for week. and
secured a number OF beautiful views.
What success the others had as
fishermen the scribe does not know,

he brought out fine lot OF
the speckled, and they are fine ones
too.

MATRIMONIAL WOES
Count George L. de Troost Says
His Wife Heaped Insults

Former San franciscan Seeks
Divorce and Does Not
Want to Pay Alimony
Especial D,,poich TO The Calll

LOS ANGELES. Sept. 20-Count
George L. de Troost, formerly of San
Francisco has begun suit for divorce
against Margaret Elizabeth de Troost
in the Los Angeles county superior
court. He alleges cruelty and deser-
tion and asks that he be absolvd from
paying alimony.
De Troost says he was goaded to
desperation by opportunities and in
suits heaped upon him by his wife.
who, he says, caused his arrest several
times on trivial charges and caused
him continual annoyance and discom-
fort by her eccentric conduct
The complaint sets forth that the
couple were married in San Rafael
January 1. 1897. 1t alleges that the
woman was treated with the greatest
consideration, and even extravag gance,
but that she,. in return for home and
all the comforts that money could buy,
was cruel and neglectful in her duties.
Count de Troost says she accused him
openly of shameless conduct with other
women and so maligned and harassed
him that he was forced to leave his
home in the north and come to Los An
geles. Here, he says, she followed him
and caused his arrest on foolish and
trumped UP charge, much to his annoy
ance and to the detriment of himself in
the business world
Count de Troost's attorneys declare
that he always sought peaceful ,rela
tions with his wife and that she is
sensation monger and seeks to adver-
tise herself.
They cite as an instance the alleged
fact that recently in San Francisco she
reported to the police that anonymous
letters had been tied to her door handle
and left on her pillow. insulting her.
She also caused somewhat of sensa-
tion in Los Angeles not long ago when
she brought about the arrest of her
husband on charges involving another
woman Mrs. de Troost's side of the
story has not yet been heard here.

and she sat. with her face hidden on
the shoulder of the matron. When Miss
Younger, trembling with eagerness and
with her eyes filed with tears, told
her that she was free she asked, "Oh,
Laura, aren't you glad it is all over?"
But the young mother, bereaved of her
beloved child and with the dreadful
consciousness that 1t was through her
own act, shook her head sadly and
said, 1T doesn't matter very much"
HAS RECOVERED SANITY
Then there was formal order from
the court to free her from custody
and Attorney Hanley assured Attorney
Barnes that there would be no question
in the matter of her sanity, is the ma
tron of the jail had declared she was
now recovered entirely.
Miss Maud Younger has taken Mrs
Macdonald to her own home and will
keep her until she has regained her
strength. when plans for her future
will be formulated. Just now it is the
intention of Miss Younger and the
other friends of the girl to brighten
her life as much as possible and make
her feel that life has something worth
while for her. In parting from Mrs
Herman she kissed her and said, THANK
you LOT. all your klnOneSS, you nave
been so good to me. can never forget
YOU"
She promised to go again to the jail
to get some of her belongings And
your kitten" said Mrs. Herman, would
you like to have your little black kit
ten that you had out there?" And with
her first little smile she said, Il would
like to have my kitten" Miss Younger
had called a taxicab. and by the rear
door from Judge Cabaniss' chambers
she took Laura Macdonald away to
begin life anew.

There have been many sums of
money sent Miss Younger for. the un-
happy girl. and substantial financial
aid has been promised The witnesses
called by the defense were Doctor Rem
nell, Doctor Hoffman and Doctor
Eidenmuller, assistant surgeons of the
emergency hospital who testified as to
her condition after she was brought
10 the hospital and that they considered
her insane at the time of the shooting
of her child.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Sept. 20.-With
New Orleans entirely stripped of wire
communication and reports coming
from points along the gulf between
Pascagoula. Miss, and Pensacola, Fla,
of high tides and winds of hurricane
velocity, it was apparent tonight that
the gulf storm which struck that sec

The gulf waters at the mouth of the
Mississippi river had caused rise of
three feet at New Orleans at O'Clock
this afternoon, a result unprecedented
The present stage of the river and the
height of the levee will admit of much
greater rise without much damage to
New Orleans, but the large number of
villages scattered between the city and
the gulf coast likely will suffer Sc
verely.
At Mobile. Ala, the situation was
serious, the waters of the bay piling
along the water front at an alarming
rate.
Railroad communication with New
Orleans by way of Mobile is entirely
cut off, a great deal of track being
washed ont
