Woman Comes from Germany to

mo ROOM FOR YOU,' MAN SAYS
judge Monroe Grants a Divorce
from Anarchist Who De-
rides All Law
NO ROOM FOR YOU MAN SAYS

After working hard to secure money
for her passage, and following her
husband from Berlin, Germany, to Chi
cago, Mrs. Hedwig Szczodry found that
he had become an anarchist and was
living with another woman of the same
belief in the windy city, according to
her story before Judge Monroe yester-
day, when she went on the stand to
testify in her divorce action against
Franz Szczodry.
The plaintiff spoke in broken English
with a pronounced German accent
She said her husband had come tC
America about eight years ago and
lived in Chicago. He kept telling her
that he would soon send money to
bring her over, she said. Getting tired
of waiting, she went to work and saved
enough just for her passage, coming
over unannounced to give him pleas
ant surprise.
two, she said, because when she
knocked at the door of his home in
Chicago he said:
"What do you want?"
She was thunderstruck for a minute,
and when she recovered her tongue
she replied:
"I have come here to live with you,
because this is my home"
"You can't live here" replied he. "I
no longer care for you. Besides, 1 have
become an anarchist and have another
wife,"
The other "wife" had come to the
door to find out the cause of her hus-
bands absence. She heard the latter
part of the conversation.
eyes, you had better go away" she
said. 1--WE are married by stronger ties
than the laws of the country. We be-
leve in no law but that of love"
Turning to Szczodry wife No. 2
handed him her purse.
"Give her $50" she said to him.
"That will he enough for her to buy
a ticket back to Germany"
The spurned wife from Germany
grew angry.
81 wouldn't touch your filthy money"
said she. 81 have only 81 cents in the
whole world, but I am going to stay
in America"
The plaintiff testified that her hus-
band and his companion, who had
also left a family to join Szczodry. dis
appeared the same night and she has
not heard from them since.
Mrs. Mary Renning, formerly of Chi
cago, who conducted the rooming
house in which Szczodry and the
woman lived, corroborated her testi-
mony. She said the deserted wife had
come to live in Los Angeles four years
ago and was a hard-wOrking woman.
Judge Monroe quickly granted the
plaintiff an interlOcutOry decree of

City Directory Publishing Com
pany Gives Its Idea of the
Towns Population
26,788 GAIN IN THE PAST YEAR
Dramatic Incident Occurs During
Compilation of Names
for 1910 Book
26,78e GAIN IN THE PAST YEAR

According to figures compiled by r.
c. Devereux, manager Of the City
Directory Publishing company, from
statistics gathered by the city direc-
tory canvassers, the population of Los
Angeles is near 325,000. The figures of
Mr.. Devereux are 1888, 1888, which he esti-
mates is between 10000 and $4,000 more
than the actual census because the city
directory enumeration includes num-
ber of persons living outside the city
limits in sections which lie so close to
the line that it is proper they be given
a place in the lists of the book.
Last year the city directory figures
were 3O7, ,OOO which is 26,7SS less than
this years figures. The increase is re-
markable, even for Los Angeles
The canVasSers, as they gathered the
names for the city directory, made a
record Of the number Of persons within
each house AS every possible effort
was made to have the statistics accu-
rate, the figures may be considered as
almost correct.
Another reason that the city direc-
tory estimate Is higher than the census
figures will show is that there are in
business in the city a large number of
persons who hold residence elsewhere.
Work on the city directory for 1910
is almost completed. Only the proof
reading and printing remain to be done.
After the book is out the City Directory
Publishing company will arrange and
publish books for Santa Barbara
county, San Luis Obispo county, Ven
tura county, San Diego county, River
side county, San Bernardino, Cotton
and Santa Monica, Ocean Park and
Venice. The local staff will be taken to
those places to assist in the work.
Many interesting things have oc-
Cured in the making of the 1910 book.
A member of the publishing companys
force was working in the office re-
Gently with a pile of the yellow slips
on which the canvassers make their re-
ports. other members of the office no
ticed him faint. Upon reviving, he said
that he had found the name of his sis
ter, whom he thought dead, and whom
he had not seen for twenty years. I'M
mediately he called her by telephone,
and found that he was supposed by her
also to be dead. That afternoon he de
clared a vacation, and he did not go
to the ball game.
