Each week has brought new builders
from other alluring realty spheres or the
city to join the ranks OF the makers OF
this big manufacturing territory.
Millions have been poured into the dis

SURPRISES PLANNED FOR
FULTON COUNTY PICNIC
Illinois Natives Preparing for Big
Time at Sixth Annual Gathering
Washington's Birthday

Reminiscent talks of boyhood and
girlhood days in Fulton county, ILL.,,
coupled with a brief historical sketch
of the county which included Chicago,
then Fort Dearborn, when it was first
mapped, are among the scheduled fea-
lures for the entertainment of the
members of the Fulton County society
of Southern California, who will hold
their sixth annual picnic and reunion
at Long Beach, Washington's birth
day anniversary. The program for the
entertainment of the picnickers is in
charge of Me-dames Joseph Merrill, G.
X. Barrere, w. L. Sherwood, c. L.
Whitman, c. E. Bacon, Ruth E. Snive-
ly and L. d. Ashton and Miss Carrie
Ingersoll.
The program makers have prepared
several surprises for the members of
the society, which they have refused
to divulge to the officials of the So
ciety. Their program to call for his
torical, reminiscent talks from former
residents of each of the twenty-siX
townships in Fulton county, forms a
new departure in the entertainment
line and on that promises to remain.
Long Beach has rendered the society
the use of it's auditorium and cornet
band and a committee of it's citizens
and the mayor have informed the So
ciety of their intention to make the
visit a memorable one.

DIVORCE ENDS
HUPP ROMANCE
SUIT OF HUSBAND IS NOT CON-
TESTED BY WIFE
ALLOWANCE OF $500 MONTHLY
CONSIDERED SMALL
Testimony Introduced by Attorney
Shows Defendant Pointed Revolt
yer at His Head and Threat
ened to Shoot

Allegations of cruelty and, eXtrava-
gance were made by George S. Hupp,
well known attorney, in Judge Huttons
court yesterday in his suit for legal
separation from his wife, Elsie Hupp,
the divorced wife of Samuel Schenck,
formerly a member of the Los Angeles
police commission.
Mrs. Hump did not contest the action,
not even being represented by an attor-
ney, and a decree was granted after
several witnesses had given tstimony
corroborating the story told by the at
t. IN y.
The Hupps were married in San
Francisco December 8, 1S98 and two
months after the wedding Mrs. Hupp,
her husband testified, told his relatives
and many of his friends that she was
dissatisfied with his financial condition,
and that unless he made more money
she would leave him and apply for a
divorce.
"She told them she would not live
with man who could not earn all she
wanted, despite the fact that was then
giving her $500 a month"; said the law
yer plaintiff.
After leaving the witness stand Hupp
produced a bundle of checks bearing
the Cancelled stamps of several banks.
These checks, he asserted, represented
$32. 500 given by him to his wife from
the time of their marriage until Octo-
ber 10, 1909, the date when he was at
tackled by his brother-in-law, Carl
Sandgren, in his own home.
Strikes Him in Face
April 8, 1909, Hupp said, his wife
struck him on the face and threatened
to shoot him, aiming a loaded revolver
q bic hand GT aSpaHnd death DV leaV-
ing the house." said Hupp.
"I gave my wife $500 month from
June until October, last year. said
Attorney Hupp, "but she told many of
my friends that I did not support her
and that 1 had spent great deal OF
her money"
In october, last year, he continued,
Mrs. Hupp insisted that her brother,
Carl .Sandgren, should live with them,
and her wishes prevailed over his OBJ
jections.
1.-THE morning after Sandgren took up
his abode with us my wife asked me to
help her set the table, but I refused to
help her while Sandgren was in the
house." said Hupp. Il went downtown
and returned home about $50 o'clock,
Sandgren was sitting at a window, and
when I asked him to unlock the door
he refused 1 broke the door down and
told him to leave the house. He said
he proposed to stay where he was.
II tried to put him out, and while we
were fighting Mrs. Hupp came in and
held me by the hair while her brother
pounded me-
Hupp said his wifes stories concern
ing their domestic life caused his busi-
ness to fall off 75 per cent in the last
four months of last year, and when
asked how the gossip affected him he
asserted it carried him to the verge of a
nervous breakdown.
"It was usually 2 or 8 o'clock in the
morning before 1 would go to sleep; a
man cannot keep from worrying in a
case of that kind,'' said the attorney. o
Hupp's testimony was corroborated
by his mother and sister.
