Catherine Hurry of 1444 Folsom street is tired of the cruel aid inhuman treat- ment she alleges she has received at the hands of her husband, James 8. Hurry, and is suing for a divcice on the ground of extreme crueclty. She filed her com- plaint yesterday, and j{ her allegations be true she has put up with abuse enough almost to cauise her to zo gunning for hor spouse. They were married in 18%4, and, com- mencing in the fall of that year, Mrs. Hurry claims, she has recelved a punch- ing or a kicking at least once & week up | to the early part of the present month. In 1894, alleges Mrs. Hurry, her husband struck her and dislocuted her jaw and kicked her so brutally that she suffered intense pain for days. The weekly beat ings that Mrs. Hurry claims she received were evidently varied in their severity, for she makes po mention of any one of those administered from the time that her Jjaw was dislocated until October 18 of this year. On that date, alieges Mrs. Hurry, her husband came home to dinner, and finding that she had sct the table for the meal in the kitchen insiead of ‘the dining room got very angry aand commenced de molishing the dishes. He drove his wife out onto the back porch, she alleges, punching and kicking her, and then grabbed her by the hair and dragged her and jerked her all over the porch. On this occasion, alleges Mrs. Hurry, she took her two little chilidren and went to the home of her mother. Mrs. Hurry returned to her home the mext day and enjoyed veacs untll October 23. On the night of October 28, she al- leges, Hurry came home, broke open the door of the bedroom in which she was sleeping with her bables, brandished a chisel over her head, beat her and then hacked the furniture with the chisel. Mrs. Hurry wants a divoree, the cus- tody of the two children " and alimony enough to enable her to clothe, feed and educate the children. She clalms thkat :g husband has an income ranginz from to $200 a month and is the owner of 500 shares of stock in the Cypress Lawn Cemetery Association. Janet Arzner, wife of Louls Arzner, a saloon-keeper, whose piace of business is located at 16 Market street, is suing her husband for maintenan-e, alleging in her complaint that on November 14, 1901, he deserted her, and that since that day he has failed to provide her with the com- mon necessaries of life, The Arzners have two children, one aged 9 years and the other 4. The plaintiff wants $500 a morth to clothe and provi€e food for herself and little'ones. She claims that her hushand is able to provide this sum without in- jury to himself or his business. She al- leges in support of aner demand for this sum that he is possessed of property worth $48,000, which she claims is com- munity property. The Arzners were mar- ried in Detroit, Mich., ir: 1885 David Jacobs, a tallor. got the worse of an encounter with the Jaw in Judge Sloss’ court yesterday morning. He was denied a divorce .from his wife, Htelle Jacobs. Instead of a decree he received an order to pay his wife $20 a month. Mrs. Jacobs sued her husband for maintenance, and ‘he answered her compla‘nt by filing a suit for divorce om the ground of cruelty, al- leging that because his wife accused him of supporting three other women he suf- fered great mental anguyish. When ths case came up yesterday Mrs, Jacobs was in court ready ‘to face the charge, but Jacobs fafled to appear and in conse quence lost his suit. Charles Redling, who was married at New Orleans :n December, 1899, is suing for a divoree on the ground of desertion. He alleges that his wife, Estelle Redling, is at present in the .Crescent City run- ning about with all sorts of disreputable characters. Suits for divorce were filed yesterday by Louisa Lippe against Louls Lippe fori cruelty, / and Flora Zacharias "against Charles Zacharias on the pame ground. | department yet URGES THE USE OF SALT WATER Commissioner Hecht Fa- vors Utilizing It to Fight Fire. Bvery effort is about to be made by the Board of Fire Commissioners to take up the plan of an auxiliary salt water sys- tem for fire extinguisking purposes, as suggested by Chlef Sulifvan. At first the system would be extended only to the business portions of the city, and wouid be owned and contro by the munici- pality. The proposition may be voted upon at the coming bond election. Speaking of the matter yesterdav Colonel M. H. Hecht ot the Board of Firs Commissioners said: I am in, perfect accord with the rest of the Board of Fire Commissioners and the chief engineer on that question. It is not a new idea by any means, though it has been very much neglected. When 1 became a member of the Board of. Fire Commissioners one of the, first things I did was to gather data on tRis subject from the varlous Eastern cities and found that where i§ was In use it was en- tirely satisfactory. I had plans and data sent to me, which at the request of his Honor, the Mayor, I turned over to him and he has them now. He is entirely with us in this matter. Situation Is Favorable. There is not another city in the United States that is more favorably situated to_establish such a plant than San Francisco. New York does most of this work through very powerful fireboats, but the system proposed by our chief :| engineer is far more certain and always ready. Boston, I believe, has a system of mains. We here have practically no more protection for our water front than anywhere else, except by pumping water right from the wharves and delivering it as far as our hose can carry. It is true there is a fireboat; I am not familiar with its power, but do know that it is prac- tically not in service, being used frequently for excursions and. inspections by the State officers and often would be hard to find if available at all. I believe the Spreckels Bros, Company has a tug fitted up as a fireboat, but it is private property and is intended only for their own protection. This of itself is a strong argument that we should do something in this direction.” A ‘plant should be established at once that could take in the whole water front and extend as far as Market and Fifth strests and take in everything east of that for many blocks. The chief engineer says the cost is a mere bagatelle to thig great city. It could be used also for street sprinkling purposes, for which use salt water is said to be much better and healthier than fresh water. Apart from all other reasons why this system should be taken up at once is the fact of the present inadequate water supply in many it not in most_places. Ever since my conmection wath the Board of Fire Commissioners it has been a constant fight for larger mains, more water and more hydrants. The latter we can always get, for the city is sufficlently generous in that particular, but what use are the hydrants when the mains are not put in place? The records of the commissioners will show de- mand after demand upon the water company for what is urgently nesded, but very little is ever done. I do not know if anything more Desds to be sad when I quofe Chief Engineer Sullivan, ‘who says that thers been any large fire at the same time as the Baldwin conflagration the city would have been at its mercy for want of water, Hopes Public Will Take Interest. 1 sincerely hope the public will interest itselt in this matter and not leave it to be out alone by the Board of Fire Com: lhnlt chiet “lntixn w.:gl the mflolld ot writers. o ore, or. favorable to the system. ing Mayor can be easlly convinced and if the general public will urge the establishment of such a system'I am quite certain it can be brought about and if it is we will have made the greatest improvement the city has had for Toaru € Sobaver R i t has been suggested that restern por- tiorf of the city can be supplied with salt W:?‘rr from the pumping plant and mains now being operated in a limited way by the Olympic it Water Company. That may be 8o, but un- s some equitable grrangements could be made for many years, it would be better for the eity to own its own works. San Francisco should not be at the mercy of any corporation or company “or"tte wnter gunply. for Any purnose: While we have reason proud of our fire it must have proper facilities to maintain its efficlency. T do mnt helieve the people know how rapidly the eity i Ing, nor do they realize how much more ing our future growth appears to be, ce we must make changes and improvements to keep pace with our prosress. , ———— = Lettered in Gold.
