Albert Lavalee, S2 years old, and
Mrs. Alice 0sier. rs years old, were
arrested in a Worcester hotel late Fri
day night. They were arraigned in
the Worcester municipal court Satur-
and the case was continued to Mon
day morning. Mrs. Osier put up a
bond of $500 with her sister as surety,
but Lavalee was unable to furnish a
bond, so spent Sunday in Jail. Mon
day morning they were both held for
the superior court, and Lavalee also
secured a bond. Both are now back
in Putnam.
Mrs. osier is the wife of John j,
0sier, and the family has lived on a
farm in Harrisville in the town ef
Woodstock for the past six years.
They have an adopted daughter.
Lavalee married Miss Florence 0sier,
sister of Mr.. 0sier. They have one
child, a daughter, and have been liv-
ing on Woodstock avenue.
The first that Mr.. Osier knew that
his wife had eloped was when he went
home Friday evening from business.
He has plumbing shop on Providence
street. Mr.. Osier says that he found
his child at a neighbours and also
found long letter from his wife in
which she told him she had gone away
with his brother-in-law, Lavalee, be-
cause she loved him better than she
did him. her husband. The letter told
him not to look for her as she was not
coming back.
Mr.. Osier says that, acting under
advice. he decided to locate his wife
that she might be stopped In her pur-
pose. He discovered that she had
stated she was going first to Worces-
ter, and also found that her trunk had
been checked to that city at the Put
nam railroad station. He notified
Captain Bulger of the Putnam police,
who notified Worcester officers to
apprehend the pair. 1t is the belief
of MIR. Osier that his wife and brother
in-law were headed for Montreal.
In response to the information re-
eeived from Putnam, Sergeants James
| F Swan and John A. Sharry of the
Worcester police located Lavalee and
Mrs. Osier at Front street hotel and
, placed them under arrest. They were
| locked up at the police station.
Mr.. Osier was married in Putnam
| eight years ago to Miss Alice Dupre.
| For some years his brother-in-law has
been frequent visitor at his home,
but it was not until recently that he
became suspicious that things were
not as they should DE. Even then, he
SAYS, he could not believe there was
ANYTHING wrong and the elopemen'
came as a complete surprise to him
Mr.. Osier says that his wife is nov
at the home of her parents in Putnam
and that he has started proceedings
for divorce When Lavalee came
home Monday, Osier says, he went tc
his own home to sleep but his wife
would not let him in the house, clos.
ing the door in his face.
Mr.. Osier has lived all of his life in
Putnam. He learned the plumbers
trade and some time ago opened 9

AND THEY ALL DO III.

Funny things happen among sports
that are hardly reconcilable. They are
great boys to put up a "holler', and
then will turn around and do exactly
the same things that they were "holler-
ing against. 1t is another case where
it makes difference whose bull is
gOred Take for instance the Penticton.
Oroville ball game played here during
I the spring. Dad" Castner, catcher Oh
the PentictOn team, veteran ball
lplayer and an all around good fellow,
by-the-way, put up an awful roar be-
cause Moe pitched for Oroville, man
who is making his home in Oroville,
and then dragged his team off the
field. Last week there was series OF
games on at Vernon in which Pentic-
ton is taking part. Now this same
Dad" Castner comes to Oroville and
secures the services of Moe, the Oro.
Vile pitcher, and Frank Snider, one of
the classiest infield amateurs in the
state, who would be in professional
ranks if he minded his ps and as.
Dad" also drew Tom Daily and other
clever players for his team. That is all
right and we are not protesting. Oh
the contrary we congratulate Dad. on
his excellent judgment, but we would
like to know how his present mental
attitude, or change of heart sizes up
with the position he took in the case
of the Oroville- -Penticton game.
