first Lazy Husband Gets Six Months

Geo. C'Red") Riggs, widely known
in automobile circles in Seattle, is the
first lazy" husband to suffer the sting
OF the statute which recently went into
effect, prescribing for the punishment
of spouses who fail to provide for those
dependent upon them.
Justice OF the Peace Fred c. Brown
last week sentenced Riggs to serve six
months in the county Jail for failure to
support his wife, Mrs. Freda Riggs,
and their baby boy. Under the lazy
husband" law, Riggs will be COM
PEELED to work for 81 day, the money
to be paid to Mrs. Riggs from the
county funds.
Riggs will start to work on the new
stockade which is being erected north
OF Ballard.
When brought before Justice Brown
for trial Riggs denied that he Jailed to
support his wife and baby. He was
arrested last Saturday on complaint of
his wife and lodged in the city Jail.
The bail was fixed at $1,000, which he
was unable to furnish.
Riggs said the trouble which led to
his arrest started when he had unpleas-
ant words with Mrs. Riggs. Riggs
left home and took a room in West
lake Boulevard hotel.
In his plea before Justice Brown
Riggs said he had not given Mrs.
Riggs as much money as was her due,
but promised to do better in the fu-
ture. Justice Brown remarked that
Riggs should have made good before
forcing Mrs. Riggs to bring about his
arrest.

Kelley Co. Declares Engi-
neer Is Working on the
Plans at Present


Strenuous denials were made, yester-
day fro nthes offices of Kelley company
that the proposed street railway line of
the Kelley interests would be abandoned.
A franchise has already been secured
for that work. The Kelley interests have
until May Is to begin work. The em-
ployes of Kelley company said that one
engineer had been in the field for the
past month making estimates, while a
oaughtsn1an had been employed making
plans for crossings and other details
that could be handled inside
II was added that George c. Kelley was
in New York and had been there three
weeks trying to get plans arranged at
that end OF the line for the beginning
of work in accordance to the franchise
agreement 1t is understood that Steiner
brothers are interested in the financial
details of the project and will assist
in getting the money to build the line
1t has been persistently rumored at
the city hall for two days that the Kelley
interests would announce their declina-
tion to proceed with the work as author
lied by the city commission However.

CHANGE OF CHURCH
NAME DISCUSSED
Protest Against Elimination
of Protestant" by the
Episcopalians

New York, March 3f.-The recent agi-
tation in the Protestant Episcopal church
and its press to eliminate from its name
the word Protestant" or adopt a new
name, has called forth a letter of pro-
test from 10 prominent rectors of New
Rev. Daniel $. Tuttle of Missouri, pre-
siding bishop of the church.
One of the names suggested, to which
objection is found, is the American
Catholic church." Those who favor its
adoption propose to submit it for con
sideration at the next general convention
of the church in this city in October.
The letter was made public in New
York. tonight. In part it is as follows:
I'VE believe the time to be inoppor-
tune for changing the name, because
the great number opposed to the change
will be sincerely disturbed by such ac-
ton; because 1t seems quite evident that
those who desire a change cannot agree
upon name, and because church unity,
of which we are becoming more hope
ful, cannot be advocated by church
which deliberately destroys its own
peace.
I'VE do not undertake to discuss here
in the adequacy of our present name
though we insist that there is a vast
difference between the question of the
church's wisdom in its original selec-
ton and the proposal to drop tho name
which the church has honorably borne
since our people became a nation"
