OCCIDENTAL FASHIONS
PART ORIENTAL PAIR

American styles in the way of
hobble skirts, picture hats and suede
pumps which were being continually
adopted by his wife, Maray Ho Leong,
proved to be the undoing of Leong Fat,
who was yesterday granted divorce
in the circuit court, on the grounds OF
desertion.
In April, 1910, Leong Fat and Mary
Leong came to an agreement whereby
they decided to live together as man
and wife. 1t was just to be an expert
ment, of course, and it was further de-
cided that if it was found that the two
were not ideally mated, they would
separate, and that would be the end Of
it. Extreme peace occupied the first
few months of their married" life,
and then the wife" slowly but surely
began to fall into the ways Of her Occi-
dental friends. Hobble skirts, Partisan
hats, and other expensive articles of
dress played the leading roles in this
part of the drama, and Leong Fat soon
found that such eXtragagance on the
paFt of the woman whom he had mar
ried according to his own custom, was
making great rents in his bank roll,
besides shocking him.
This went on for some time and then
an attempt on the part OF Leong to
demonstrate with his wife" led to a
quarrel, and the naughty spouse left
home, and has not returned since.
Then Leong learned that under the
law he had become the husband of the
woman by cohabitation, and this neces.
Stated his getting a divorce on the
grounds of desertiOn. A decree in ia,
vor of the husband was issued in the
circuit court yesterday by Judge Whit
ney, which will become effective on
the first of next month.

liquor.
This Remedy may be taken in your
own home while you attend to your
usual work, and you need not go to
a hospital and need not be sick
He also has remedy that is taste
less and odorless, that wives and
mothers can give to their husbands
and sons in their drink or food, SO
that they do not even know they are
being cured, but leaves them think
they quit of their own accord. II you

co SIX STORIES
Addition to New England Build
ing Be Full Height.
Owners Decide Two Stories
Not High Enough.

Decision has been made by Horace
Hall and W. A L. Thompson, the
owners. to build the addition to the
New England building to the full
height of the present structure-six
stories The improvements will cost
between $50. 900 and $4,000
The original intention was to build
two stories only at the present time
Immediately south of the present build
ing. In speaking of the change in plans
Mr.. Hall said today: We got our feet
wet and thought we might as we'll go
ahead 1t will cost 10 more in CHE long
run to build the addition up to the full
height of the present structure even if
some of the rooms should be vacant for
some time to come. The first floor will
extend back to the alley-150 feet
while the remaining floors will extend
to the light court only.
The building was planned originally
with the idea that an addition might be
built at a latter date. The elevators
at present in use will serve the entire
building
Work is now in progress on the addi-
ton which will have a frontage of fifty
feet. Henry Bennett is the contractor
The improvements are expected to be
completed by October 1.
The first floor will be occupied by the
Western Union Telegraph Co.. the
United States Express Co, the Postal
Telegraph Co, and the Santa Fe Tele-
graph school.

ENGINE HIT AUTO
Drivers Shoulder DislOcated-
Passenger Through Shield.
Missouri Pacific Crew Didn't
See Machine.

A switch engine on the Missouri
Pacific struck an automobile on
Eighth street last night and threw
one man through the wind shield and
disiocated the right arm at the elbow
and at the shoulder of the driver The
car is practically a total wreck The
accident occurred at I o'clock
M. c. Wells and T. j. Williams were
in the car and were driving west or.
Eighth street when the engine struck
their automobile as they were cross
ing the track. Wells was driving at
the rate of not more than 10 miles
an hour. The switch engine was run
ing at about the same rate of speed
and was unaccompanied by any
switchmen or train crew. The engin-
eer and firemen, in the cab were the
only persons with the engine.
Mr.. Wells did not see the engine in
time to stop his machine but sweryed
the front wheels in an effort to reduce
the force of the collision. The engine
knocked the car forward and then
struck IL again and even a third time.
Mr. Williams was thrown through
the wind shield and struck on the paw
ing He was painfully bruised about
the body, his right arm and three
fingers were cut when he went
through the glass and he has a num-
Der of bruises on the face.
Wells suffered two disIocations to
his right arm. He was not thrown
out of the car and this alone is be-
lieved to have prevented more serious
injuries.
The car belonged to the Gilmore Au-
tomobile company which has garage
at SIS. Quincy street. Both rear
wheels are broken. The body of the
or will be a total loss excepting the
cushions. Messrs. Wells and Williams
were taken to a physician for treat
ment and the car was taken to the
Elmore garage. Both men are out
on the street today but not able to
work.
The car was knocked or dragged at
least 20 feet by the engine.
