He Discharged His
Duties

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-Police Inspector
Edward Mccain, charged with graft
ing" resumed the stand in his own be-

tory guarantees of future good conduct
being given
The inspector said he had frequent
occasion to make arrests of women

The defendant denied emphatically

to be collected money from owners of
illegal establishments.

lieved his wife had obtained her decree
week before and that a marriage
consummated outside of California
would be valid, despite the law provid-
ing that a year must elapse before
final decree is entered.
Leo denies his second wifes story
that she believed he was single man
when she married him, stating she was
aware of this fact a month after their
elopement, but continued to live with
him until January l, when they finally
separated.
The suit for annulment was first filed
by Mrs. Leo In the courts of Santa
Barbara and transferred to Los An
geles on a change of venue. Another
suit is pending against Leo in Santa
Barbara Involving a large amount of
property decided 1t is said, to his second
wife for the purpose of preventing the
first Mrs. Leo from obtaining it through
a court order when she was granted her
divorce. Later, 1t is said, Leo induced
his second wife to deed the property
back to him and sold it. Mrs. Leo, who
files this suit, seeks to quiet title to
the property and regain its possession.

AMERICAN MEDICAL MEN
AHEAD OF FOREIGN ONES
Exhibits and Testimonials at Internal
tFonaI Congress Prove Superiority
of Doctors of United States

NEW YORK, Sept. 18-Dr. Louis
Livingstone Seaman, one of the Amer
lean delegates to the recent Interna-
tional Medical congress at Budapest,
arrived today on the steamer Cam
pania from Liverpool and spoke very
encouragingly of the showing made
there by America and the success of
the congress.
'"The Americans are far ahead of
other nations in many branches OF
surgery and medicine" said DR.. Sea-
man, "as shown by the testimony and
exhibits at the congress. This Is par
ticularly so in the case of appendicitis,
where we excel both in the treatment
of the disease and the technique of
the operation
Speaking generally, DR.. Seaman said
it was the height of insanity for Amer
leans to go abroad for treatment by
foreign specialists when there were
physicians at home who could walk
all around the European medical men.

COUNT LEO SUED
BY SECOND WIFE
FORMER STENOGRAPHER ASKS
MARRIAGE BE ANNULLED
DEMANDS LIFELONG ALlMoNY
FROM AUSTRIAN
Woman Alleges Nobleman Was Not
Divorced Man When He En-
tered Into Matrimonial
Contract

Infatuation for his pretty stenog
rapher, hurried trip to Nevada and a
hasty marriage, while he believed his
first wife had given him his freedom
in the divorce court, quarrels and 4
separation are said to be involved IN
the suit against Ernest Francis Leo,
Austrian count and wealthy California
land owner, filed by Ada A. Leo in the
county clerks office Friday, in which
she demands an annulment of the mar
riage on the ground that Leo was not
a divorced man when he entered into
the matrimonial contract.
Leo has employed an attorney, George
H. Kelch, to contest his Wife's action,
for, in addition to asking for legal
separation, Mrs. Leo requests the court
to issue an order compelling her hus-
band to pay her 800 month as long
as she lives.
Leo claims membership in the Aus
trian nobility, ranking as a count. He
came to America in July, 1904. and
opened real estate office in the Mason
Opera House building. He needed a
stenographer, and when Mrs. Ada A.
Kirkpatrick responded in person to his
advertisement her nimbe fingers won
for her a good salary while her at
tractiveness appealed to the count
noble and aesthetic tastes. The count $
dIldDlllly anu SOOu lOOho clSO eAPPC"ASN
to Mrs. Kirkpatrick, but that either
was impressed with the other was not
known to Leos wife, whom he had
married at Riga, Russia, in 1891, until
his attentions to his stenographer be-
came too apparent. Then, it is said, she
employed detectives who discovered
that Mrs kirkpatrick was occupying a
pretty Grand avenue home, which, 1t is
claimed, was furnished and maintained
by Leo.
Buys Affinity Homo
Mrs. Leo instituted an action for di-
vorce, and Mrs. Kirkpatrick went to
San Francisco to remain until the
storm was over. A reconciliation be-
tween the husband and wife was later
effected, and a short time after Mrs,
Kirkpatrick returned to Los Angeles.
The count took her to Santa Barbara,
purchasing a home in Mission canyon
for her and giving her the deed to the
property.
Then, It is said Mrs. Kirkpatrick be-
came discontented and demanded of
Leo that he either marry her or make
monetary settlement. He could not
do the former, and was disinclined to
do the latter.
Mrs. Leo again instituted divorce pro-
her husband of desertion. The case
was postponed In the local courts sew
eral times, decree being finally
granted April 20.
Eight days before the legal separa-
tion was ordered Leo and Mrs. Kirk

weigh the local interest in deciding
upon the motives of the senator or
congressman in voting against free
lumber.
There Is nothing more necessary to
the welfare of the people than lum-
ber, and 1t ought to be as cheap as
possible. To put a tariff on lumber
is like putting a tax on salt, and the
salt tax has even been considered a
hardship, and 1t has always been re-
sorted to by despots, for no one can
escape such tax.
But lumber is not only necessity.
1t Is vanishing product and a
tariff upon it simply stimulates fur
ther distinctions II there is any one
product that ought to go on the free
list, it is lumber.
Not only is lumber one OF the
necessarieS OF l1fe-not only do our
timber lands need such protection as
can be furnised them by the free
importation OF lumber-but a tax on
lumber imposes heavy burden upon
all the people for the benefit of a
very small percentage of the people
What proportion of the American
people can possibly be benefited by
a tariff on lumber? The percentage is
exceedingly small. Even in the
states where there are lumber inter
ests, the majority of the people are
buyers of lumber rather than produc
ers.-The Commoner.

Of middle age he said he would give

FINALLY the shah came TO the beauti-

waited in anxious silence to hear the
old heather state her value in sheep,
for che was thought to be the most
beautiful woman In London.

Woman and Her Back.

In Henry Baerlein's novel "Yrivand''
there is n discovery about the express
sion of the emotions which even Oar
win forgot to)record. 1t is to the effect
that woman chiefly uses her back to
convey her sentiments. And, indeed,
any close observer Of the human com.
edy can hardly fail to notice that does
a woman wish to annihilate rival and
cast despair into the soul of a lover
she simply turns an expressive back
upon them. No tears, no wrath, no In
dlgnation, can vie with this maneIver
which has, too, the advantage of being
noncommittal, for no one, In the cur.
rent jargon, can "give Herself away
with her back. The expression of the
emotions by this part Of the anatomy
is dignifed, IL trlfie limited. When
a woman cries she is too apt to make
a deplorable grimace. Does she get
angry. her face will assume an unbe-
coming red. Very few understand the
use of the gesture of the hands and
arms. That is why woman, with her
primordial instructive wisdom, uses
her back, especially when 1t is beauti
full, as one of the chief weapons In the
eternally divertlng war of the sexes.
