ROBERTS HAS
ONLY ONE WIFE
Libel for Divorce Dismissed as
Result of Curious Legal
Mix-Up.

The libel for divorce against Jack
Roberts brought by Jennie Williams,
who claimed to be Jennie Roberts, on
the ground of common law marriage,
was dismissed by Judge Robinson yes
terday afternoon on the ground that
Mrs. Williams divorce from her former
husband, Williams, was illegally OBJ
tanned and therefore void and she could
not legally have married Jack Roberts
or anybody else
And when the pilillia was all over,
Roberts marched proudly out of the
courtroom and down the stairs with his
newest wife clinging affectionately to
one of his arms and the wife whom he
divorced about two years ago clinging
just as affectionately to the other. while
the woman who claimed TO be his wife
and wanted divorce came after ON the
| arm of her attorney.
The dismissal of the libel came on the
motion of Lorrin Andrews, attorney for
Roberts, who on cross.examinatiOn of
| the libelant, made her admit that she
obtained divorce from Williams in
| Judge Lindsay's court here in Homo
lulu on her representation that she was
a resident, of Honolulu although she was
really resident of Hilo. The woman
admitted that she had not told the truth
in the former divorce case.
Andrews promptly moved for a dis
missal; claiming that the woman had
perjured herself and had shown herself
ready to commit perjury on any provo
cation.
Attorney Biting fiercely opposed An
drews' motion, arguing that no man
had the right to come into court and
bring forward as his defense the fact
that he had been guilty of the commits
sion of crime. Roberts, he said, was
trying to get out of his marital troubles
by claiming that he was never married
to the woman but had been living with
her in open defiance of the law.
The judge, however, ruled in Roberts
favor, supporting Andrews contention
that the libelant had never been legally
divorced from her first husband ant
therefore could not have married Rob
erts legally, and her claim of common
law marriage fell to the ground.
Roberts various wives, except th'
one who wanted the divorce, appeared
pleased at the result of the trial, ana
two of them fastened TO congratulate
him and To accompany him down The
stairs. The decision leaves tho Salom'
dancer Roberts legal wife, and the,
may begin housekeeping whenever the,
} get ready.
One result Of the trial is TO show thai
Wlliams-who is floating around unde
tho belief that he Is free divorce,

panese government, according to the
purser of the boat. Mr.. Kirkwood and
his wife went Immediately to the Mo

is supposed to be for the purpose of
keeping an eye on the developments in
the Thetis incident. The Asia left
Yokohama on the 25th, Immediately af-
ter the news of the Thetis capture was
wired TO Japan, and it is thought that
he was dispatched Immediately on the
Asia to follow the matter up as there
is big gap in the steamer service that
would have held him until the prelim-
mary investigations were finished. The
officials at the japanese consulate pro-

WANTS DIVORCE
FROM DEAD MAN
Honolulu Woman Files Action
Against Husband She Thinks
Has Killed Himself.

Hilda Frances Soderberg has filed
suit for divorce in the circuit court
against her husband, Charles Herman
Soderberg, whom she believes to have
died the death of suicide. Mrs. Solder
berg is not sure that her husband is
dead, but she has not heard from him
for two years and therefore believes
that he has shuffled off this mortal coil.
At any rate, she wants to be sure that
she is free from him, although in her
complaint she expresses the belief that
he would not willingly have deserted
her. Indeed, that is one of her main
grounds for thinking that he must have
killed himself
Mrs. Soderberg alleges in her com.
plant that she was married to Charles
Hartman Soderberg in London in 1000
On December %, 1906, they moved tn
Sydney, Australia, where they lived
until May 10, when her husband re.

send for her or join her here as soon
as possible.
But since that time she has not heard
from him, except for two letters she
received, one written September 20 am
| the other October IL, 1907. In eacl
of these letters there were certain ex
pressions which, when read in the ligh
of the libelant's knowledge of he
husbands views on suicide, couple,

search for him made by her relatives il

and has destroyed himself. The libel

WASHINGTON, February 4.-There
will be more hearings before the senate
committee on the Curtis bill, providing
prohibition for Hawaii, the first vote to
report the johnson bill favorably hav-
ing been reconsidered when it was pro
posed to substitute the Curtis bill, which
is stricter in its terms. The next hear
ing will be on Friday next, when those
opposing the proposed legislation will
be heard.
The result before the committee at
the present time appears to be very
doubtful.
A favorable report to the senate will
ensure the passage of the bill by the
senate.
The opposition expected before the
committee will take the form of pro
test against the taking away from Ha
waii of the local right to legislate or
the subject of prohibition.

If the biggest meetings in its history
and steps to strengthen the hand of
John G. Woolley, the league agent at
Washington, were taken. The members
of the league appeared to be very san
guine of the ultimate success of their

The members of the wholesale and
retail branches of the liquor dealers
association were busy calling upon
members of the chamber of commerce
to urge them to vote against the in
vasion of the principle of home rule
embodied in any possible action by con
gress touching the liquor situation.
Swift and Unexpected Jolt.
The liquor dealers received swift
and unexpected jolt in their canvas for
funds to finance their antiprohibition
campaign, this being not only refusal
on the part of Hackfeld & Co. to con
tribute, but withdrawal on the part OF
that firm from the association alto

TEMPE ENJOYS ITS
 SHARE OF PROSPERITY
New Buildings Going Up and Few Un-
 occupied Old Ones.

That Tempe is enjoying its share of the period of prosperity that has struck the valley is very evident from the amount of building that is now in progress and from the further fact that there are today fewer unoccupied busi- ness houses on Mill avenue than there have been in some time. There is really only one. Just opposite the postoffice, the new Tempe garage for A. J. Ahlquist & Co. is fast assuming shape. The walls are all up and the roof will be on in a day or two. Work will then be started at once on the ce- ment floor. little further down the street the new garage that IS being built by c. F. Finch for the Strong Felt Nichols firm is beginning to show up. Mir Finch has let the contract for the building to Charles Murphy and is sparing no expense to make the building a substantial and modern one in every way. A concrete foundation is being put in now, the pit is being dug and material is being fast hauled onsto the grounds. It is expected that the building will be completed and ready for occupancy by the 18th of September.
 Someone yesterday got the idea that MT. Finch was going out of the livery business from the fact that he was building garage on his property, but MT. Finch told him that just as long as machines cross the river here, he could make expenses in the livery busi ness by pulling them out of the stream now and then.
 Rumor has it that there is to be a still further improvement in that end of town in the not far distant future in the nature of the removal of the old Parry blacksmith shop, the site to be occupied by a building of more modern character.
