Dunsmuir, a well known mining man of British Columbia, had an experience last Monday night that he will not soon forget. He was the victim of two_of the cleverest card sharpers known to the police. Dunsmuir was mulcted out of $9000, and only recovered the amount with the assistance of Captain Seymour and his detectives. Dunsmuir' is a guest at the Palace Ho- | tel. He has been staying there far the past_week with his wife and daughter. On Monday night Dunsmuir went out alone after dinner, and in the course of his ramblings dropped into the Cafe Roy- al, on the corner of Market and Fourth streets. Dunsmuir was aware of the rep- utation of the place, but had a natural curjosity to see the victims engaged in tkeir efforts to lure fortune to their side. He became interested in the game and when invited to take a hand was not loth to de so. Two wily bunko men were given the “tip” that a rich stranger was in their midst and a plan was made to deprlvg him of hi§ money. Dunsmuir was plied with liquor that was ‘“‘doped” and was soon playing with a recklessness that could only end in loss. ‘“Pat” hands were dealt to him and he won. When the stakes were large enough the schemers would deal themselves high hands and gather in his money. The bunko men did not allow him to leave the place until he was completely shorn. He returned to his hotel in a dream. The fact that he had been ‘“shak- en down” did not dawn upon him until yesterday morning. He remembered that he had left the Palace with-$1000 in gold and $8000.in checks.. A search of his pock- ets failed to reyeal the small sized for- tune. Dunsmuir immediately stopped payment of the checks at the bank and then notifled the police. Detectives werc detailed to find thie two men, and within a few hours they were taken to the Hall of Justice. They were forced to return thelr ill-gotten wealth. Dunsmuir gained possession of his checks and most of his gold. He was glad to get his money back and declined to prosecute the men. The two card sharpers were allowed to de- part, ‘but were ordered to leave town within twenty-four hours. Christmas Holidays in Mexico.

UNHAPPY WIVES SEEK DIVORGES John Donnigan, ‘Krown as Lee Johnson, Song Wrriter, Is Sued. John Donnigan, musician, better known as Lee Johnson, song writer, was made defendant in a suit for divorce yesterday by Nellie A. Donnigan, to whem he was married in February, 1852. His wife alleges that since the marriage her husband has treated her in a cruel and inhuman man- ner. Mrs. Donnigan alleges that the month following the marriage her slapped her violently on the face, that in the month of April, 1882, he fre- quently came home under the influence of liquor, and on numerous occasions while in that state applied vile and abusive lan- guage to her, and struck her. Once, she alleges, when her husband was about to leave for Santa Cruz, he removed all the food from the house and the oil from the lamps. On another occasion at 1135 Oak street he pursued her about the house with a razor, threatening to kill her, she avers. The Donnigans have one child. Mrs. Donnigan is at present living with her mother, with whom she has been stay- ing since August last. Mrs. Cross Wishes to Be Single. The angel of peace, supposed to be hov- ering over the nome of George H. and Lo- retta Cross, whose marriage last July caused quite a stir, owing to the fact that the groom was an unwilling party, has evidently taken flight, for Mrs. Cross is | suing her husband for divorce for cruelty. The complaint was filed yesterday and contains a recital of many mean things alleged to have been done by Cross. Cross applied to the Superior Court for an annuliment of the bonds of matricony about two months ago. He claimed he ‘was forced into the marriage by his wife's brothers and sisters and a policeman, | who, he claimed, threatened to do him b(:fdlly harm uunless he made the girl his wite. The tles were nqt severed, however. The young couple met again and reconciliation fouov;ve:d Croa: sheddconh:l\u tears and promis to be good, and Mrs, zafinted Cl:x his fima. o o rs. Cross alleges that her husband on the night of the marriage left her to ‘:go care of her sister and went to keep an en- gagement with some women to whom he telephoned in her presence. She further alleges that when her baby was born he refused to take any interest in the child and advised her to “give it away.” Some Husbands, Too, Want Liberty. Mary A. Stone is suing Charles for ‘divorce on the ground of exirone cruelty. They were married last April at Sacramento, and three months afier they became husband and wife, Mrs. Stone ai. leges, Stone commenced treating her in a cruel and inhuman manner. Stone, she alleges, in June, 1901, at their home in Sacramento, drove he: from the house at the point of a pistol, firing a shot at her as she ran. rs. Stone alleges that her Fusband followed her to the home of a Mrs. Cox, to whom she fled for protecs tion. and threatened to kill her. ary. en, who was marri Louls Brien in this city last July, eaniy the marriage ties severed and has ap. plied to the Superior Court for a divores on the ground of cruelty. She alle; es that her husband said he had marrieq hes in order to secure a housekeeper.
