ANDREWS GETS MAD AND
RAPS PREDATORY WEALTH
Raues Because 1t Is City'S Turn
to Pay for Ornamental
Street Lights

My! myi my! But Josias jeremiah
Andrews did Jump on" some nice
people yesterday. They were Gilbert
Wright, F. w. Blanchard, Joseph Mes
mer and some others who appeared be-
fore the streets committee to take up
the subject of the city paying for the
Juice in the ornamental lamp posts on
Hill, Broadway, Spring and Main
streets for the coming year.
Its not a square deal for the city
to pay for the Identification of your
Broadway property" said Andrews.
Square deal!' is Andrews cuss word.
IT'S not right that the poor man
who gets 50 day should be made to
pay taxes so you rich people can have
lots of light in front of your property
when he hasn't even one little arc lamp
out in his neighborhood. If you want
these lights, you should pay for them
yourselves"
The ornamental lamp posts were
erected on a "gentlemen's agreement
with a former council that the prop
erty owners would pay for the posts
and the light every other year, the city
to pay for the light on alternate years.
The city must pay for the next year,
and it will cost more than $4,000 to
light the four principal main streets.
That's why Andrews objected so hard.
The members of the committee
chewed on this light business until
they were all pretty warm under the
collar, then they passed the buck to
the board of public works for recon-
mendatiOn,

WIFE'S HIGH JINKS TOLD
BY HUBBY; Gets DIVORCE
Joy Rides and Absence Nights
Make Beatrice Again
Single

H. L Griffith secured an interlocu-
tory decree of divorce from Beatrice
Griffith, on the ground of desertion
yesterday in Judge James court, the
testimony indicating that the defen-
dant preferred late hours, automobile
rides and conquests over a wider
range, than the confines of a comfor-
table and sedate home allowed.
The plaintiff testified that his wife
had frequently stayed away over night
and on returning had explained that
she was visiting her mother, when tele-
phone messages to the latter revealed
that she had not seen her daughter
during the time involved.
Frances Griffith, sister of the plain
tiff, testified that on one occasion Mrs.
Griffith came up to their home in an
automobile with other men and asked
her to go out for a Joy ride" She
had refused. saying to the defendant
that it was unbecoming a married wo-
man to run around with other men.
Mrs. Griffith, the PLAINTIFFS mother,
also testified against the defendant,
declaring that she had frequently been
missing over night and was known to
be out with other men. Her daughter,
Frances, declared she had seen the
defendant on the street after an alb
sence and that she looked as though
she had been in a fight, the indica-
tions being that she had been celebrat-
ing to an unusual extent the night
before.
The husband testified that after he

that she was an adopted daughter and
was only 16 years old, when she rep
resented to him that she was is years

HOORAY! GARBAGE PROBLEM
is NOW UNDER AMUSEMENT
Loading Station Probably Will Be
Moved to New Site

The streets committee of the council
got as far with the solution of the
garbage problem yesterday as taking
it under advisement. That the matter
has been under advisement for several
weeks didn't seem to bother the COM
mittee at all.
The ultimate solution of the PROPOSE
ton seems to be that the garbage
loading station will be located at the
old incinerator site, where it will be
out of everyone's way. But to do this
will require either that the garbage
must be hauled in cars through the
main portion of the city or that a third
rail must be laid for a mile along Santa
Fe avenue to make the tracks on that
street standard gauge. One of these
alternatives probably will be de-
cided on.
Fifty or more men and women who
object to the present loading station on
Also and Anderson streets appeared
before the committee yesterday and
made a mighty protest against its
further continuance at that place.

TOO MANY R0MANCES COST
CITY FIREMAN HIS POSITION
A. D. Patterson Fails to Repay
One Woman $500

A. D. Patterson, a fireman of engine
company No. 8, was dismissed by the
fire commission yesterday morning be-
cause he was naughty. Incidentally
Mrs. NJ. c. Husman's heart is plumb
busted" for she says Patterson prom
ised to marry her and didn't do it.
According to testimony introduced at
the hearing yesterday morning, the
mere fact that the marriage ceremony
was not performed didn't appear to
make much difference. Both of them
said so to the commission.
Mrs. Husman claims that while they
were on friendly terms Patterson bor-
rowed $500 of her to go into the busl-
ness of buying and selling horses. Some
time after she found out he was mar
ried legally, and then she demanded
he return her money. He gave her a
note for the amount and promised to
repay it $40 a month. He made two
payments and then stopped, threaten
ing to blackmail her, she says, if she
pressed the claim. But she took a
chance and presented the claim to the
fire commission.

SECRET SESSIONITIS is
EPIDEMIC AT CITY HALL

Will some one please fumigate the

system of the fire commission yester-
day morning and that body spent
nearly half an hour behind the closed
doors of the mayors office before it

wanted to put through at the public
session.
Nearly every department in the city
government is catching the secret ses-
sion malady. The board of public
works and the health department still
do all their business out in the open.
Perhaps the health department is i'm
mune from the disease because it is

a whole lot of people who would like
to have the health department give
the other departments "A shot of some
kind of dope that would cure them and

SAYS GOLD BRIQUETTE
is BEING HANDED CITY

The fire department is being buncoed
on it's purchase of briquettes, accord
ing to a statement made to the fire
commission yesterday by Commissioner
Hawley. He declared that every sack
of briquettes delivered to the depart
ment is at least 10 per cent short in
weight and that the city is paying
$3.50 a ton for the fuel while the con-
tract price is $3.50. The difference in
price was explained by Acting Chief
Todd, who said that the rebate was
to have been made on the return of
the sacks and the sacks were not re-
turned.
Hereafter every ton of briquettes
purchased for the fire department will
be weighed on the public scales and
the department will receive a "bill Of
scale" with the goods, The fuel is to
be dumped promptly and the sacks re-
turned at once, for the commission has
set it's foot down and will not pay
more than $3.50 ton for briquettes.

WIFE DENIED DIVORCE SAYS
HUSBAND TOLD HER TO GET 1T
Mrs. A. L. Sturges Tells Story as
She WeepS in Court

With tears running down her
cheeks, Mrs. Aimee Louisa Sturges
explained to Judge Conrey yesterday
that she was trying to secure divorce
because her husband requested her to
and because she loved him enough to
comply with his request.
The defendant was Varney Knight
Sturges, and the plaintiff In the case
charged him formally with desertion
and non-support. She said he had
suggested that she get a divorce from
him on those grounds, and he gave
her $50 to pay the expense Of the suit,
she told the court.
The situation was a pitiable one for
the plaintiff, who has an impediment
in her speech. Never was there a
plaintiff in an action who was less
anxious to win than she was and on
hearing her story the court dismissed
the case, the plaintiff leaving the court
room with tears streaming from her
eyes and undecided whether to feel re-
lieVed or otherwise.
