John Rutherford, a deteciive, had a warrant for the arrest of Epnraim Hat- field, who is wanted in South Carolina. He finally located Hatfleld in Pike County, Kentucky. Watts went with Rutherford and they found Ephraim at the home of his father, Thompson Hat- field, on Blackberry Creek. Rutherford and Watts broke in the door and secured Ephraim, when the father opened fire on them. Both officers and both Hatfields were killed. The wife and little children witnessed the tragedy. The Rutherfords were relieved of “Cap” Hatfield of feud fame. Rutherford was a brother of the two Rutherfords killed at the election in 189 by “Cap” Hatfleld. Watts was well known throughout the southern part of‘ the State. He was wealthy and popular. It is said he could have saved himself had he not stopped firing for a moment when one of the Hatfield children was within his range. The excitement among the feudists is as great as at the time of the burning of the McCoys at the stake by the Hatfields years ago and more trouble is expected. ADVERTISEMENTS.

They contain no cocaine nor oplate, and are given to little children with entire safety and benefit. Dr. J. J. Reltiger of Covington, Ky., says suffered from catarrh in my head and throat every fall, with stoppage of the nose and Irrita- tion in the throat affecting my volce and often extending to the stomach, causing catarrh of the stomach.

Charlotte Davenport has been arrested in Santa Barbara. When the madame was in Los Angeles she undertook to get up a ‘‘class” of fifty | women to attend a series of her lectures | at the Friday Morning Club house. She | did not get quite the required fifty, but she collected a class that satisfied ' her. She promised for the §10 fees to tell the women how they could dispose of twenty or thirty years of their apparent age. Her method was simply to eat plenty of raw carrots. The madame impressed upon her di ciples the need of using grated raw ca rots for the three meals of the day, and feeding the same vegetable to thefr hus- bands. If the husbands would stand for that kind of food it proved their lovi For a time after Mme. Davenport's com- ing to town bankers and merchants and | real estate men were eating nothing but raw carrots at home. At the inception of her class the ma- dame creatéd consternation -by refusing | 10 ace the checks of some of her‘ “‘pupil who, being wives of bank presi- dents and capitalists, had their own bank accounts; but Mrs. Severance ended the { trouble by guaranteeing the entire amount. In that class were Mrs. Mark Sibley_Severance, Mrs. W. Patterson, | Mrs. R. W. Poindexter, Miss Wills and | others. i Mme. Davenport lectured to “circles” in e homes of prominent ladies. She al- | ways did well, for $10 is cheap for the secret of how to turn backward the hands of time with carrots at the prevailing market price. About the time the hus- bands of the madame’s disciples began to rebel against the raw carrot diet and to frequent the ‘“free lunch routes” Mme. Davenport went to Santa Barbara. o e e R o CAUELTY CHARGE AGAINGT HITTELL Young Attorney’s Wife Files an Action for Divorce. Special Dispatch to The Cali. UKIAH, March 2.—A complaint was filed in the Superior Court here yesterday which is the first step in what probably will prove to be a sensational divorce case. It will certainly be so if contested by the defendant. The plaintiff is Mrs. Susan Hittell, a daughter of Mrs. Anna Morrison Reed, who is not unknown to fame in California as a poet, lecturer and contributor to various publications. Sev- eral years ago Mrs. Reed published a vol- ume of poems which received the com- mendation of many of the prominent men of the State. The defendant, Frank T. Hittell, is a young lawyer and is a son of Theodore H. Hittell, the well known San Francisco | attorney, iaw writer and historian. He is now in San Francisco, where he has been for several mbnths past. About three vears ago he opened an office in Ukiah, he and his wife residing here with Mrs. Reed; but some months ago he went to San Francisco, leaving his | wife and child here, presumably until he could get started in business. Mrs. Hittell is a handsome woman and | has considerable musical talent, being tne | pianist of the U Symphony Orchese tra. She brings suit for absolute divorce, $25 a month alimony and $100- attorney’s | fees. She charges extreme cruelty and al- leges that at divers times and piaces the defendant struck and choked her, called her bad names and otherwise abused her. A half dozen specific instances of cruelty | are stated in the compiaint, one of the latest being alleged to have occurred in a Ukiah chop house known as ‘“Jack’s,” where, it !3 charged, Hittell struck and choked his wife in the presence of wit« nesses, who are named.
