EFFORT
BEING MADE TO
GET A DIVORCE
■With a record of three divorce
trials decided against them in Mis
souri, one in which tl»e husband was
refused a decree and fwo In which the
wife was unsuccessful, the domestic
troubles of Charles B. Miller have been j
transferred to the Idaho courts. Miller ;
j 8 now seeking a divorce in this coun- |
,
ty. Judge McCarthy heard the case
in part yesterday.
The suit is being bitterly contested
by Mrs. Miller, who. with affidavits
and court records galore, seeks to
show the court here that she te not
to blame for the ship-wrecked life of
the pair, and alleges instead that her
husband is at fault.
WIFE WORKIN GIN STORE.
Miller, who, now resides at Notus,
early last summer tiled a gnmplalnt in
the district court, asking divorce from
his wife on the grounds of desertion.
A little later he received his frst jolt
which came in a etter from Judge
Jones Parker of the St. Louis court of
criminal corrections, which cited that
Mrs. Miller was working in a depart
ment store for a small salary and had
no money with which to fight the case.
Judge Parker sent an answer to the
eomtlaint and asked to have It filed if
any provisions could be made in a
case in which a defendant was without
funds. Later the answer was filed by
Gardner Adams and the case lay dor
mant until yesterday afternoon when
Miller took the stand to give testimony
in his vn behalf to secure a decree.
HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS.
According to the testimony given by
Miller, he was married in 1898, and
there are two children, both girls, now
residing with their mother. He gave
a brief history of their stormy career
for eight years, testifying that hs wifu
refused to move to a farm with him
for the reason that she said fTie girls
were musical and they must live in
the city, where they could be well edu
eated and have music lessons,
Some eight years after their mar
riage. he testified, his wife filed acton
for divorce against him and while lie
did not contest it. she did not secure
a decree. Some 18 months later, he
testified, she tried again and was again
denied a divorce. After both cases, he
testified, he made offers to live with
her f or the sake of their children and
that they tried it again for a time. A
year or so later, he testified, he filed
action for divorce on the grounds o»
desertion and that was denied. Twice,
he testified, he took hs family to a
farm and on both occasions his wife
left him, once afte rbut a few weeks
and the second time after only three
days. She refused to come to him in
Idaho, so Miller stated, and he declared
this was his reason for asking for di
vorce on the grounos of desertion.
