RICH WIFE TRIES
AGAIN FOR DIVORCE
Mrs. V. de Latirner, Daugh-
ter of Late Millionaire,
Brings New Charges

Renewal of an attempt by Mrs Viola
Jane. de Latiner to obtain a divorce
from Walter J. de Latimer will be made
before Judge Graham today. Her second
complaint indicates that she has re-
ceived some of the inheritance of the
late Peter Kimberley, a millionaire of
Sharon, Pa, and is preparing to spend
1t obtaining a decree. Desertion is the
latest charge.
Mrs. de Latimer, widow of John Webb,
Los Angeles real estate dealer, mar
ried De Latimer on November 4, 1909.
She had received a payment of 5000
from her fathers estate, and alleged
that under De Latimer's persuasions she
gave 1t to him and that he invested a
portion of ii in the Valencia garage, at
Valencia and Seventeenth streets. She
charged that her husband had made her
Intoxicated on the day before the mar
riage and that she did not know what
she was doing.
The case was dismissed by Judge
Mogan in 1910, and later Mrs. de Lati-
mer was declared incompetent and De
Latin1er became her guardian. She was
restored to competency recently upon
representing to the court that her in
competency was bar to her being able
to appear in the courts of Pennsylvania
to collect the remainder of her fathers
estate that was due her.
Complaints filed:
Agnes against Edward A. Colbeck cruelty: :
Nilsson against Warren Anderson cruelty. Lii
lian against Fred p. Nelson neglect: Oda against

From Sweden came Albusta Syensen.
Is years old to marry Gustav StilIer.
II years. who was clerk In a Southern
Pacific railway freight Office in Los
Angeles. Soon after the marriage Gus
tav lost his position, and the couple
made their way to San Francisco. The
rest of the story developed yesterday
in Judge Graham's chambers, when they
besought a. divorce.
Il don't want to leave my husband but
what can we do?" said the girl bride.
He has no work and can get along
better If they don't know I'm married.
think would better go to New York,
where l can get work, and I think 1t
is better that we be not married any
more"
Gustav nodded his head and added
that he thought so too, although he
loved Albusta
Il have got $40. It is all have but
she can take 1T and go to New York.
Maybe I can make enough money and
send for her again.. And tears were in
his eyes.
Don't do It, advised Judge Graham.
Absence may make the heart grow
fonder. and then again it may not.
Stick together as long as you can. I
can't give you divorce unless you ap-
ply in the regular way; besides you
have no grounds for divorce
SO the couple left the chambers. They

FIST FIGHT NEAR
COURT OVER GIRL
Spates and Frerichs Clans
Come to Blows in Battle
for Child

The troubles of the Spates family and
of the F'rerichs family--houses allied
by marriage and divided over the care
and custody of IL year old Nita Spates
caused noisy session in Judge Gra-
hams court yesterday and reached
climax In the corridors of the city hall
after the court hearing. when deputy
sheriffs were compelled to interfere
with belligerent male members of the
warning clans.
Judge Graham postponed further
hearing until Judge Murasky shall, to-
day, decide whether the juvenile court
has any jurisdiction over the little girl,
who is the victim of the divorce system.
The outcome of the row in the corri-
dor was the departure of Mrs. Emma
Frerichs with the girl TO her home at
SO Ramona street where the child has
been housed for the last year. and of
Mrs. Robins Spates Won Alkmar, the
girls mother. to the home of her son
in law, Harry Spates, at 1413h Guer-
rero street to await the courts action.
The clash occurred between j. M.
Spates of the Hotel Henry, father of
Nita and former husband of Mrs. Won
AIkmar. who divorced him two years
ago, and Harry Frerichs, a grocer. who
is the husband of Mrs Fannie Frerichs,
a daughter of Mr.. Spates and Mrs.
Won Alkmar and the elder sister of
Nita Blows were exchanged by the
father and his son in law, when Deputy
Sheriff Doyle hustled the younger Mr..
Frerichs into an elevator and Deputy
Sheriff Lemcke escorted Mr.. Spates to
another car A considerable crowd,
attracted by the noise of the women
in the party, followed them to the
street, but hostilities were not re-
newed.
In court Mrs. Won Alkmar renewed
her plea to take the child with her to
Redding. where she has her son, boy
of 16. When Judge Graham continued
the case Mrs. Won Alkmar renewed a
previous objection to having her
daughter remain at Emma Frerichs'
home another day, declaring that the
influences surrounding the child were
bad Mrs. Frerichs Indignantly denied
the accusation, and both women talked
at once until silenced.
Judge Graham suggested that the
little girl be placed in a good home
for children, and the mother said she
was willing, il necessary, but added
that she preferred having her little
girl with her, now that she had estab-
lished a home in Redding.

RED BL00DED IS
PLAY, THE WOLF
Plenty of Action in North
west Drama, Now Run
ming in Alcazar
Bessie Barriscale and How
ard Hickman Make Hits
in Piece

Deviltry meets a bitter defeat at the
hands of virtue In the Alcazar this
week. where Bessie Barriscale and
Howard Hickman are closing their en-
gagement with the presentation Of the
powerful drama THE Wolff There is
plenty of red b1ooded action in this
play of the Canadian northwest, which
is one of the best Eugene Walter ever
wrote. Not a slow minute occurs in
the entire three acts. it arouses the
passions, and when the curtain falls
one feels that something true to life
has been portrayed behind the foot
lights.
Last nights audience held it's breath
as Herman Cripps, the hero, and Bessie
Barriscale and Howard Hickman
played with vfgor their stellar roles.
Cripps was nothing less than superb
as Jules Beaubien. the young French
Canadian. He assumed his part natur-
ally and without any apparent effort
and his reward was storms of applaus
His English was really better than
1t would have been had he been a real
son of Canada. His acting earned him
a deeper place in the hearts OF Aicazar
patrons.
In the third act, when he engages
II,
takes the part of William Mcdonald, g
mining engineer who proposes to breai
the heart of Hilda McTavish, Miss Bar
riscale's role, Cripps rises to the
heights of genius. The scene is rathe,
melodramatic. but 1t is convincing. ant
one can hardly realize that it is merel.
play acting.
Miss Barriscale, who has the onl.
female role, has little opportunity to b.
more than a nominal parsonage. Sh'
cries in a particularly heartrendint
fashion and she makes you believe tha
she is badly abused little woman, g.
she is--in the play. Nevertheless. sh
