IS, AMUSE STASDEB III CUT
The Seattle Star gives the following
interesting details of th? Si de/ di
? vorce case? Antone Stand' r, well
known Klondiker, de( ndact.
Divorce from a business standpoint ;
mi^ht have been used to fitly express
the proceedings before Jud,;a Morris n
the superior court yesterday afteru on
by which Violet Stander secured a le
gal separation from her mill on?lr?
miner husband, Antone Stander.
The hearing was very quiet, almost,
prosaic, exempting for the atmospheric
disturbance created by the wife's fa
mous earrings, four-karat sir-, which
scintillated fiercely a- she tos?e l her
head reci'.Ing her tale of mu*ltil un
happiness.
Stander was not present. A privious
agreement respecting adivis'onof the
million-do'lai (.state w?s introtlu.ed
through the med.um of a lawyer una
incorporated in the decree.
The Stauders were marri d in San
Francisco. Th?y had previoi s^y met
in D^wso", during the early fc ?v? of the
Klondike boom. After the honeymoon
the couple returned to Dawson and it^(
was there that the trouble tarted. On
one occasion Antono returned to their
c.bin during a "jainboree" and corn-)
pelled hiw wife auJ h r sis'ter to fl o for i
their live s They spent the entire
uigut wandering about on tho snow
covered hills, clad in scanty gtrb.
Ordinary tiffs, during which Stander
would take his wife and throw her over
a trunk, or .tmu<o himself by beating
her with -> loaded c*ne and soraatimes
his fists, were of too frequent occur
rence to be of detailed consequence,
the wife explained. During all of
which tim" the aforesaid four-lcarat
diitnond e.?rriaj?s blinked vigorously.
Despite their matrimonii 1 dirtieu.tUs,
however, the Standers p*ospered, An
tone striking a rich pay-stieak on his
claim, and iater investing money with
his wife in Seattle property, which Is
exceedingly .valuable.
Uoder the terms of the agreement
incorporated into the di%*orce decree
the couple will each get about one-half
of tho property.
