f COURTS OF WASHINGTON
i UPHOLD MRS. MARSTO,
An Olympia, Wash., special to the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer, dated Sept
10, says that the Washington supreme
court has decided that Mrs. M. H
Marstori, of Seattle, was within hei
rights when she seized an automobile
she says her husband gave to anothei
woman. The Marstons, while living
in Alaska, it appears from the rec
ords, agreed to separate, and dividec
Marston’s mining properties in Alas
ka.
Later they came to Seattle and liv
ed apart. Mrs. Marston soon made
the discovery that another womar
was driving around Seattle in a $2,50C
car she says she learned was a gifl
from Marston. Marston, she says, ad
mitted he had placed the car at this
i woman’s command and had authorizer
her to pass as Mrs. Marston.
Mrs. Marston did not like this, anc
she seized the car and sold it. Mars
ton brought a replevin suit against
Olaf Rue and others, doing business
as the Rainier Auto & Machine Works
to recover the car. Judge Frater, ir
the King county court, said he could
not recover it, and the supreme court
sustains his ruling.
The decision holds that the wife had
a right to sell it the same as she
. would eggs held in storage foi
. months, stocks when the market is
falling, or a cow to get cash for the
farm when the head of the family is
absent, and it is necessary to act. The
court holds, in brief, that an auto is
listed as “perishable.” The court
says:
“But had she a right to sell it? If
we class it among perishable things,
undoubtedly. It requires insurance of
various kinds, and cannot even be
stored without expense. It deterior
ates in time from mere loss of style.”
Many lAiners are trying their luck
on the Nome beach, but with little suc
cess.

TOM BOYD, MAIL CARRIER,
TELLS OF IMPROVEMENTS
(Iditarod Pioneer)
Tom Boyd, of Tokotna, was a visitor
in the city this week. He states that
crops this year in the Kuskokwim val
ley will not be as abundant as former
ly. Mr. Boyd is one of the sub-con
tractors on the winter mail service,
and he states that he has not been in
foi’med as yet as to any intended
change in the route during the com
ing winter.
Mr. Boyd states that arrangements
have been made which will insure a
much speedier delivery of mail during
the coming winter than heretofore.
It will be the duty of carriers to con
tinue their journey with the mail until
the connecting carrier is met, even
though they should be compelled to
pass the customary meeting place. In
this manner the mail will be carried
through without delay, and Mr. Boyd
expects that a service of 21 days be
tween Seward and Iditarod will be
possible.
Another innovation will be the use
of dogs instead of horses on this end
of the route, and also at the coast end.
Horses only will be used between the
interior stations.
CORDOVANS ORGANIZE
BUILDERS’ ASSOCIATION
(Cordova Times)
The Cordova Building association
met last night and effected a perma
nent organization by the election of
the following officers: President, Mal
colm Brock; secretary-treasurer, Na
thaniel Greene, who with H. A. Slater,
A. J. Adams, and George C. Hazelet
will form the board of directors. A
meeting of the directors has been cal
led for Friday night, when plans will
be outlined for the erection of more
home in Cordova.
This organization is a timely one,
As there is a demand for houses here,
which it proposes to supply. These
will be erected by the association for
people who desire to purchase them on
easy payments, thus giving them an
opportunity of owning their own
home by having the monthly rental
apply on the purchase price.
A number of persons have already
signified their intention of taking ad
vantage of this public-spirited move
ment to plan and have built for them
the kind of home they desire to occu
py as permanent residents of Cordova.
