PARENTS INTERFERENCE
IS CAUSE OF DIVORCES
Judge Crow Declares Fathers and
Mothers Responsible for Do
meStiC InfeIiCity

Because neither the plaintiff the de-
fendant could agree on their place OF resi-
dence, Joseph z. Wooderson was granted an
interlocutory decree of divorce yesterday
afternoon from Dolly A. Wooderson by Judge
Crow of Santa Barbara in department one
Of the superior court. In rendering judgment
the jurist declared that about half the divorce
actions filed in court caused by the
parents of either husband or wife interfer-
ing in their manner of living, and he believed
the best thing for a young couple for
their relatives to leave them alone.
Mrs. Wooderson had complaint
against her husband for desertion. She said
he left her and refused to live with her.
Ivy Ransom, who secured a hearing of his
divorce action against Stella Ransom on the
ground of desertion three months ahead of
the date on which it was set on the calendar,
in view of the fact that he has a position
awaiting him in Denver, granted an
interlocutory decree by Judge James yester-
day
Ella II. Sawdon was granted interlocu-
tory decree of divorce from Henry ]. Saw
same from b. Jensen by Judge Hutton yester-
day afternoon, both actions being on the
ground of desertion.
The divorce action of Mrs. Grace B. Beard
against Pearl A. Beard was continued because
the principal witness, Mrs. Edward Ditmars,
mother of the plaintiff. injured in a
street car accident on Sunday and was
able to be present.

duCtor Tells of Husbands
Unexplained Departure

decree of divorce from Logan z. Grimes in
Judge Hutton's court yesterday morning on
the ground OF desertion.
It am going to leave you now" was what

oordng to her testimony, and she has not
seen him since.
What was his buness?" asked Judge
Hutton.
He was a conductor in Los Angeles" she
replied.
Ibid you not have words or some kind of
trouble before he left?'
mot in the least" she replied.
"But," said Judge Hutton, there must
have been some reason for his leaving"
'He just made up his mind to leave, and
then left" she insisted.
Finally Judge Hutton forced her to admit
he had been in the habit OF drinking, gam
bling and loafng from his work
why did you not tell me that before?' he
demanded Of the plaintiff.
''I had arguments with him over his habits,
and did not consider that troublesome" she
replied.
Lecanna Jones secured an interlocutory de-
cree of divorce from Albert r. Jones. Both
are negroes, and she said they were ''bohn"
in Arkansas and married a year after the
close of the civil war because a marriage
before that time didn't count for much. She
charged her husband with excessive intoxica-
ton and warning her that ''thuh undahtaker's
wag'n IL be used TO yo' all directly" He
often threatened to give her an early funeral,
she said
Laura Weber was also granted an inter

ing her property in his name. She was granted

note was introduced in court and was to
the effect that Mrs. Brown would be glad
to find a home for the baby provided that

ORDINANCE TO COMPEL
DAIRYMEN TO COOL MILK

The board of health, at a meeting yesterday
afternoon. instructed the city attorney to draft
ordinance requiring dairymen to cool all
milk to a temperature of go degrees imms-
datey upon milking. DR.. Cole suggested that
the ordinance become effective not later than
August 1, in order that the dairymen have
sufficient time to install apparatus to meet the
requirements Of the proposed law.
It hinted that at some future date a
tuberculin test Of all cows supplying milk to
this city would be required, but the board was
not willing to ask for such an ordinance until
the state legislature has passed law COM
pensating the dairymen for animals destroyed
being tuberculous, a law similar to that
of Pennsylvania.

LEGAL FIGHT FOR
MONEY Of ANOTHER
Children of Aged Mrs. Caroline
Huff in Contest to Be
Named Guardian
PROPERTY VALUED 100000
Mrs. Addie DonneI Seeks to Be
Appointed, as She Is
Named in Will
PROPERTY VALUED 100000

That Mrs. Caroline Huff signed
checks to anybody who asked her for
them was the testimony given by JEFF
ferson p. Apple in Judge Rives' court
yesterday when he was called to the
stand to testify as to her incompetent
cy to manage her estate of 100000.
The hearing is for the purpose of pass
ing on the application of Mrs. Addie
Donnel, wife of DR.. T. c. Donnel of
Long Beach, to be appointed guardian
of her mother, who is alleged to be in
competent.
Under the provisions of a will Mrs.
Donnel has been made sole heir of her
mother, Mrs. Caroline HUFF, who suf-
fered a fracture of the hip some time
ago and appeared in court yesterday
in q wheel chair, attended by nurses.
Mrs. Donnel alleges that she is the
only one of the children who has taken
care of her mother, but that her broth
er, S. e. Huff, moved into her moth
er's home on April 20 and took charge,
replacing the help by others who had
used her with great rudeness when she
attempted to visit her mother, she al
1eges.
WANTS To BE GUARDIAN
She charges her brother with at
tempting to make her visits to her
mother unwelcome and with influence
against her in her feeble minded con-
dition. In view of the fact that Mrs.
Huff made q will in her favor she seeks
to become her mothers guardian and
that the aged woman be declared in
competent to manage her own affairs.
The petitioner has three brothers,
Will A. Huff of Santa Ana, Charles S.
Huff, a real estate dealer of Venice,
and Stephen E. Huff of Los Angeles.
1t is claimed that the latter proposes
to be appointed his mothers guardian
and that he is supported in this plan
by his brothers, against the petition of
the sister.
PROPERTY IN ESCROW
The property has been placed in es-
crow by Mrs. Huff and is to be given
to Mrs. Donnel at her death. During
her lifetime Mrs. Huff is to use an
income of 5000 a month from the prop
erty. Consequently, Mrs. Donnel is
contesting the petition of her brother
to be appointed guardian of her mother
in her enfeebled state of mind, for
fear it might result in the property
being diverted from her.
The mentatl condition of Mrs Huff
has steadily declined since the acci-
dent according to physicians on the
stand yesterday. Attorneys for the
brother are endeavoring to show that
her mental incapacity dates back prior
to the accident and to the time when
the will was made in favor of the
daughter. Following the presenta-
tion it is expected that another con-
test over the validity of the will may
be entered
