She is not pretty, yet she .s far from being a plain woman, and to an or- dinary observer there is no evidence of “toughness” in her make-up. Mrs. Adams says she was married to John C. Adams, a soldier at the Presidio, on March 10, 1893, when she was a girl o 18. They kept a rooming-house on Ches- ley street for a while, and John W. Gray, an ex-soldier, was one of her roomers. “My husband did not provide for me or the children,” she sald yesterday, “‘and when he deserted me and went to Oregon in 1896 Gray offered to provide for me, and I accepted his offer. We got along Yery well for some time, although he of- ten came home drunk and abused me. He gave me his wages to save every week, and the first serious trouble we had was last July. I then had $165 of his money, and when he came home drunk one night and demanded it I refused to ive it to him until he was sober, as I new he would spend it. He finally got a revolver and threatened to kill me. He got the money and drove me and the children from the house and wrecked the furniture. 1 had him arrested, but he offered to pay_for the things and behave himself, and 1 withdrew the complaint. Several weeks ago some one broke into the house and stole $60 we had saved, and Gray accused me of taking it. He threatened to kill me and drove me away. I then went to live with my father. “I did not kill my baby, and I do not see how they can accuse me of such a thing. I sent for Mrs. Kenney as soon as 1 discovered him in convulsions at the foot of the back steps, and she said he had spasms and for me to give him some whisky, which I did, although I told her he never had spasms.
