hind the government breakwater.
The men are John Butcher, John Nc
Carthy, Godfrey Day and Frank Frost.

ASKS DIVORCE ANNULED
AFTER HUSBANDS DEATH
Court Denies Woman's AppIiCa-
tion to Be Made a
Legal Widow

DENVER, Sept. 23.-"It is manifest
that the decree cannot be set aside un-
less the plaintiff is given an oppor-
tunity to resist the operation. The
plaintiff is dead, and is either in a
celestial or sub-celestial region, and it
is clear no personal service or notice
can be made upon him. for if the sheriff
attempts to serve him the sheriff will
never get back. 1t is equally clear
that service cannot be made upon the
plaintiff by publication. No angel would
ever think of reading q newspaper. If
this defendant is to be reunited to the
plaintiff, it must be accomplished
through the medium Of some mystic
form. This court is without such
power"
This was the wording of the unique
decision of Judge John r. Dixon in the
court yesterday, denying the ap-
plication of Mrs. Susannah Dubbs to
have set aside the divorce decree Sc
cured by her husband prior to his
death. Mrs. Dubbs alleged that she
could set up a meritorius defense to
the charge Of cruelty upon which her
husband secured the decree, If she was
given the opportunity. Before her ap-
plication could arrive at a hearing by
the court Dubbs died, but Mrs. Dubbs
continued her efforts to have the de-
cree set aside.
Dubbs was an old soldier and pio-
ueer mining man.

Take Money from Bible

Are Still at Large
DYING WOMAN SEES THEFT

while relatives and friends We're
lxneeling at the bedside of Miss Maria
Dominguez at her home at 152S 81
James street, last night, waiting the
arrival of priest, who had been SUM
moned to administer extreme unctlon
TO the supposedly dying woman, two
men. it is alleged, entered the house'
nassed the group Of anxious watchers,
watched their opportunity and stole
silver crucifix belonging to the SICK
woman, and took five one-dollar b1lls
from between the leaves of a Bible.
The theft was observed by MISS
Dominguez, who, because OF her Ill
ness was unable to speak and conse-
uuently could not warn her friends TO
apprehend the thieves. When she saw
the men walk out of the room, she was
so overcome at the loss of her church
relic which had been given to her by
her grandmother, she relapsed into un-
consciousness.
Soon afterward e. r. Dominguez, a
brother of the woman, who had gone
after a. priest, returned. The Catholic
clergyman followed the weeping broth
er into the room and was about TO
kneel in prayer when Miss Dominguez
suddenly raised up in bed and In feeble
tones informed those about her BEDSIDE
of the theft of the cross and the money.
The shock Of losing the treasured ar
weakened condition and soon after she
regained consciousness an apparent
change for the better was noticed.
Dominguez questioned his friends
who were in the room at the time of
the burglary and one woman remem-
bered having seen the two men saunter
into the room and slowly walk out
after lettering for a few minutes near
q table near the foot of the bed.
Dominguez started an investigation
and traced one man who is said to
have been in the room, to a restaurant
in San Fernando street. Dominguez
summoned a patrolman and the sus-
pect was questioned. The latter con-
vinced both men that he had nothing
to do with the theft and was allowed
to go.
The matter was reported to the de-
tectives and the officers are looking for
q man who is supposed to have been
the companion of the person found by
Dominguez.

Judge Monroe of the superior court
yesterday made permanent the tenn
porary injunction granted at the re-
quest of ]. w. Downing, who accused
the directors of the I<londikel Mining
and Milling company of unlawfully
levying an assessment on stock.
Downing, who owns 1896 shares of
stock in the company, valuing his hold
ings at $50 900, asserts that the d1rec-
tors had no right to assess the stock
one cent a share when they had in the
treasury more than 100, 900 shares of
unsold stock and $500 in cash.
Downing also claimed that the direc-
tors were trying to freeze him OUT of
the company and alleged that they de-
manded that he pay his assessments in
cash while other stockholders were
permitted to pay theirs by giving
promissory notes. He asked the court
to restrain the directors of the COM
pany from selling stock for delinquent
assessments, and the temporary in
junction granted several weeks ago
was made permanent yesterday by
