Dec.7. | According to the answer filed by Ed- | ward R. Perrin to-day to the suit his wife, Sarah Perrin. has brought against him for desertion the usual obligations of man and woman in the matter of court- ship and marriage were quite feversed. | To cap the climax Perrin winds up his story of abuse by asserting that he is | without funds whatever, and asking that the court make an order directing his wife to pay him alimony at the rate of | $5 a month. | Perrin asserts that he met Sarah John- son, or, rather, she met him, in 1889, when ucting a littie store in_ Ala- Though she was 70 years old and he took a fanc him After a short w demanded that he art she marry Perrin said he was content to_ live on his | pension and his little store.

There was a promise that there were to be no_more boarders kept by the bride-to-be. Perrin consented to marry after all these prom- | ises were made. i But, Perrin_alleges, his wife began to | abuse him a few days after the wedding, which took place in October, 1899, She made him work at menial labor from morning until night, and then nearly starved him by giving him food that was not fit to eat. He winds up his statement with the assertion that, “fearing his mar- riage misery would hasten him to his grave, he quit plaintiff in disgust one month after the wedding.” ————— HIS MUSTER ROLLS | WERE NOT PREPARED Lieutenant Morrison Did Not Make | Ready for Inspection—His ’ Parade Report. Matters became mwore interesting at the | inquiry into the affairs of the Naval Mili- | tia last evening, the testimony turning | upen the muster of the First Division last month and the parade reports for the 10th of September parade. It was shown by the testimony of W. G. Morrison, lieutenant commanding the First Division, that the order calling the muster was dated for one day and an- other date so it was impossible to tell | whether the muster was to be held on sday, November 20, or Wednes: ovember 21 November order called for Tue It was shown, too, Hewes, the there were no ready, no muster _roils | as the properly of the division in any condition to be inspected. The night of Wednesday, November 21, for which the muster had been ordered by General Dickinson, there were but ten men and two officers of the division pres- ent. It was shown that when the officers of the division were told to line up their men they lined fourteen; and two of these were members of the other division % 21 the testimony of Major inspecting officer, that by property made up no rolls nd two more were not members of the militia at all. irding the parade report for Sep- tember 10, it shown that Morrison | reported thirty-seven men present when he had not sufficient men to man a platoon that required at most thirty-six men, and that ten men from other organizations in the parade were detalled to him to make w v.{w( e necessary complement for his platoon. The incident in the wardroom of the Marion, in which it was charged Morri- | son used insuiting language, was ex- plained by Morrison with the statement | that he had a right to object to the pres- | ence of all the guests in the wardroom, but that probably he had expressed his objections in more forcible language than he should have used The Investigation will go on again Mon- day. RAILROADS PLANNING TO CARRY MANY DELEGATES E. 0. McCormick, Back From East, Says Epworth Convention Will Large. O. McCormick, passenger traffic manager of the Southern Pacific, returned yesterday afternoon from St. Louis and Chicago, where he attended meetings of the Transcontinental Passenger Associa- tion. A matter of considerable interest to Californians which came up at both meetings was the fixing of a special transportation rate for delegates who will attend the Epworth League convention, to be held in this city in July of next year. irom 25.000 to 30000 visitors, from ! all parts of the United States, are expect- ed, and special trains to the coast will be run from every large city in the East. It was practically agreed that a round- trip fare of $0 snould be offered from Chicago to this city, and the holder will have the benefit of a generous number of stop-over privileges. Mr. McCormick says that the railroads are planning to carry as many, if not more, delegates as were | handled during the Christian Endeavor | convention here three years ago. Another important matter taken up by the association was the fixing of colo- nists’ rates, which will go into effect Feb- | ruary 12, 19 and 26; March 5, 12, 19 and 25, | and April 2, 8, 11, 23 and 30. “The idea of having colonists’ rates, said Mr. McCormick, “is to attract vis- itors to the West—men who have small sums to invest in real estate and who would have come out here long ago If | | transportation had been within thelr reach. Exceptionally low rates will be oi- fered. From Chicago the fare will be $30; from St. Louls, $27 50; from points west of the Missouri River $25, and from Memphis, $27 50.” The matter of tran | in baggage-cars was |1atd over until the January meeting.

It required ardent application of hammer and chisel to remove t then the Chinaman found generous quan- tities of excelsior, underneath which was some felt packing. Layer after layer of all kinds of packing was removed. until suddenly the China- man emitted a yell that would have done | eredit to a Berkeley rooter when the ball | was almost over the Stanford goal line. -+ | His pigtail stood up straight in the air | e e top, and | | and he ran shrieking through the house, “Heap dead man’in box!" shouted the | xcited Celestial.

Glacier Disappears From the Side of the Volcano. VICTORTA, Dec. 7.—According to ad- vices recelved here R. B. Dunn, a New York newspaper man, who has arrived at Dawson from the Copper River district, says that the copper finds there are un- doubtedly very rich. United States Geolo- gist Schrader, who was in the country, told him that the mines were the richest in the world. They are located on the Kosckina and Cittynar rivers, tributaries of the Copper River, south of the voleano, Mount Wrangel. Tin ore assaying 10 per cent has been discovered in the same re- glon. Dunn reports a fresh eruption of Mount ‘Wrangel on the evening of the 4th and the morning of the 5th of October. This time, unlike the last two outbreaks, there was no shock whatever and all that indi- cated an outburst was two steam Jjets throufh the envelomnfilondn. Later, on the side of the mountain where a glacier had been the night before, zrodund could be seen to be perfectly bl an Dunn says the Nicolai mine is the prin- cipal discovery thus far and considerable work has been done on it this year. The company owning the property was formed in Minnesota. e ore from this mine as- says $27 to the ton in gold, silver amd cop- per and twenty men have been kept at ‘work on it all summer, e ack RACES FOR PORT WITH WATER IN HER HOLD Steamship Alpha Springs a Leak at* Sea and Puts Back to Victoria.

The vessels were chartered to the Northwest Commercial that the services rendered by the Centen- nial clearly entitle her to salvage, and ac- cordingly demand their share.

If the amend- ments carry it will center the fight upon the one office of Ma T, because he will have the appointment of the new Board of Public Works and Police and Fire Commissioners, which are made separate organizations. The entire patronage of the city will be dispensed by those boards.
