Sulllvan in Judge Cofféy’s court yesterday, as she shook her fist at her offending brother. Taking advantage of every technicality of the law, Sullivah sought to defeat the effort of his mother, an aged woman, to establish hér right to a family allowance from the -estate of her husband, the late Jeremlah Sullivan. Time after time Judge Coffey beratéd the unnatural son for his hostility toward his mother, but without CEIVED FAVORABLE Ci WAS OPENED-LAST E TWO SPLENDID PAINTINGS THAT ATTRACTED MUCH ATTENTION AND RE- MMENT AT THE MEMBERS' NG IN THE ROOMS OF THE SEQUOIA CLUB.

Othelia obeyed.; Taking- asmall por- tion of the community gold, :she started for home and enjoyed a pleasant’ visit with her parents.. After six months’ she .returned. to this, city to find that John had vacated the apart- ments they occupléd before her depart- ure. She instituted a search for him and her life’'s happiness fled when she found him comfortably established in a suite in the Palace Hotel, another Mrs. Peder- son by his side. Without taking the trouble to obtain a divorce, he had re- married- After a stormy scene Pederson agreed to divide his wealth with his legal wife, which he did. Then she sued for di- vorce. Yesterday she presented her proofs uickly reli i before Judge Murasky and he granted e {;y ‘hgv::lezr;d INMOSt Cases | yer g decree, infidelity being the ground | upon which it was Issued. The second | Mrs. Pederson, who recently had her | marriage annulled, was an interested epectator during the hearing. Decrees of divorce were also granted to Minnie from Frank H.

Hall, for cruelty; Lillian M, from Michael J. Sulli- van, for neglect; Thomas E. from Ida M. Gibson, for cruelty, and Bertha from Ernest Lucan, for neglect. Andrew J. Weir was adjudged guilty of contempt of court by Judge Hebbard and ordered into the custody of the Sheriff untfl such time as he obeys the order of court to pay his wife Margaret $5 a month for the maintenance’ of her- self and two children. Weir is suing his lefe for divorce, and pending the hear- |ing of his-charges, which his wife de- inies, he was ordered to maintain her. | He refused, with the resuit that he is now in custody.

Notable are the portraits, miniatures and large oils of Lillie V.

P. Neilson’s “Street Scene in Mexico" and the landscapes revealing a deep poetic interpregation of nature; Will Sparks’ moonlight (the one in the corner) is a fine study in the mystery of the moonlight; Bertha Stringer Lee introduces an indi- vidual phase of work—paintable places on the water front. These she gets with a fine fidelity to color and septiment, leaving out jarring features and saving| the poetry. “The Hillside’” of John M. Gamble, a bit of hill near Willits, o’errun with wild heliotrope and lupines, is a gem—by far, the best of his wild flower pictures shown. | Lgu Mersfelder’s little children are at- tracting a lot of attention, the “Little Girl and the Cat” my fervid choice. * The club has Issued many hundred cards for next Saturday and Sunday after- noons, for Wednesday afternoon and evening, and Sunday afternoon, Decem- | ber 3.
