Lowell said life had been trying to civiliza him for more than seventy years and had met with but little UL s.

LEGAL SKIRMISH "IN HEWITT CSE Defendant, Through Coun- sel, Pleads for Time to Answer. Allowed Until Friday Next in Which to Prepare to Prove Plain- tiff Is Not His Wife, e John B. Hewitt, the wealthy ofl land speculator of Bakersfield, who has been sued for divorce by Mary E. Hewitt, was not ready yesterday to proceed with the hearing of the motion to dissolve the in- junction issued restraining him from dis- posing of any of his property interests during the pendency of the litigation. The motion was set for hearing before Judge Hunt and a large audience gathered in the courtroom yesterday morning, expecting that the first gun in what promises to be a long and sensational legal battle would ed. When the case was called, Attorney J. C. Campbell, who represents Hewitt, asked for a continuance on the ground that he had not been given sufficient time to answer the affidatit filed by W. Grady, of counsel for Mrs. Hewitt, in sup- port of a motion that the defendant be ordered to pay preliminary alimony, coun- sel fees and costs. “My client is in Bakersfleld,” sald Camp- bell, “and I have not an opportunity to confer with him on the matter. We dls- pute the marriage and clalia that the agreement on which the plaintiff rests her case is not a valid marriage contract. ask that a continuance of, say, two weeks be granted, so that we may be able to pre- pare a counter-affidavit. [ am satisfled to let the injunction stand until that time.” “We object to any continuance,” replied Attorney Grady. ‘“The motion to dissoive the injunction was set for hearing to-day at the request of the defendant’'s counsel. On behalf of Mrs. Hewitt, 1 now state that we are ready at this time to prove the marriage beyond the shadow of a doubt. My client is without means and it there is going to be a continuance she should be allowed alimony and costs. We want to bring witnesses from Bakersfleld and also from Shasta County, where the }-nardrlage took place, but we are without unds."” “We dispute the marriage,” sald Camp- bell. “I am inclined to allow the plaintiff a reasonable sum for prelimin: costs,” interjected Judge Hunt, “if the plaintiff is without means sufficlent to secure the wit- nesses necessary to prove her case. ° defendant is reputed to be wealthy and on the proper affidavit I will make the neces- sary order.” A lengthy argument followed, at the conclusion of which Judge Hunt continued the hearing for one week. In the mean time Grady will prepare an affidavit show- ing just what expense money his client will ‘require to secure the attendance of the witnesses from Kern and Shasta counties. Mrs. Euphemia E. Poulsen of 1318 Sev- enth street, Oakland, who is vice president of the charitable society to which the three children born to Hewitt and the plaintiff were entrusted, was In court. She had with her Gladys, the second oldest child. The other children have been ! placed with private families in Sausalito. | Hewitt came to me In_January, | said Mrs. Poulsen yesterday, “and | t a_story of his wife having deserted | him.

Her opera- tions, they say, are confined to hotels. Her name is May Mills, but she is also known as May Bonner. She was arrested last evening by Detectives Dinan and Wren, while in her room in a lodging- house on Geary street. In her possession was found over fifty keys belonging to the Palace, Grand and other hotels.

Last Thursday evening, it is said, she went to_the Pleasanton Hotel and pre- tended that she wanted to see one of the guests. As her actions became suspicious the clerk started to question her, when ghe became alarmed and promptly left the hotel. Satisfied that she was the dar- ing hotel thief who had been systematic- ally robbing rooms in various hosteiries the clerk lost no time in notifying Captain of Dectectives Seymour. He detailed De- tectives Dinan and Wren to run her down, and after considerable trouble they locat- ed her last evening and took her into cus- tody.
