"SACRAMENTO WOMAN SUES FOR DIVORCE
AUBURN (Placer Co.), December 9—Mrs. K. KHOUMRIAN, of Rocklin, has begun the preliminaries for a legal separation from her husband, who is a young machinist, employed in the railroad shops at Rocklin. The Khoumrians have been married a little over a year, but the marital relations seem to have been stormy and tempestuous. An ungovernable temper on the husband's part is said to have figured conspicuously in the domestic dissensions that have estranged the parties.
The affair has been kept quiet and but little is known of the suit, as all parties connected with it are maintaining a strict silence. It is stated, however, that the plaintiff will set up some unusual allegations in her complaint.
The plaintiff was formerly Miss Edith SACKETT, of Sacramento. It is not known whether the husband will contest his wife's suit, but it has been intimated that he will not appear in the action."

VENICE OPENS SUMMER SEASON
RECORD-BREAKING CROWDS AT BEACH RESORT
Silhouette Artist Interests Children in Behalf of San Francisco's Needy by Unique Scheme of Collecting Books
Sackett's Unique Scheme
A novel method of contributing to the cause of relief in behalf of San Francisco has been devised and put into most promising operation by X. Ackley Sackett, the local silhouette artist. Mr. Sackett, who has been one of the leading spirits in the relief work effected here, several days ago caused to be announced at the public school that to every child bringing him a school book, regardless of subject matter or condition, he would present a profile cut to order. Already the books have commenced to come in and the silhouette craze among the youngsters is assuming alarming proportions. Grammars, geographies and spelling books are spread over arithmetics and readers, some of which were undoubtedly in use before California was settled, in the none too large quarters of the artist; and the end is not yet.
Yesterday a woman promised to donate a soapbox full of books, and others have made known an intention to contribute in smaller quantities. Mr. Sackett says he knew what he was about when he undertook his contract, and claims to be immune from scissors paralysis, which complaint the undiminishing activity of the youthful population of the town seems bent on making his portion.
"Bring 'em along," is his slogan, and locally it's a three-cornered pool and take your choice on whether the kids lose interest or the supply of books or Sackett gives out first."

"THREATEN ARTIST WITH TAR COAT
X. Ackley Sackett, Known as "the Cuttist," Forced to Leave Venice in a Hurry to Escape Violence
Special to The Herald.
VENICE, Oct. 30—Information secretly conveyed to him, to the effect that a number of men had planned to give him a coat of tar and feathers tonight, caused X. Ackley Sackett, the Windward Pier cuttist, to hurriedly close his studio this afternoon and depart for Los Angeles.
Before leaving Sackett made the statement that he understood it was part of the program to have a charge of his having committed a vicious act trumped up against him to be used by his assailants should they be arrested or if he did not leave town quietly after the proposed assault had taken place.
Sackett, who lives in the rear of his studio, is generally credited with having brought to public notice the activities of card sharps here and the alleged neglect of duty of the local police force. He said he had been warned previously and was not taking any chances, as he feared the gang and could not depend on the police for protection."

CUTTIST PROVES INK SLINGER
Venice Pier Artist Arrested for Throwing Bottle at a Man Who Said Things
Special to The Herald.
VENICE, Nov. 4.—On complaint of Pat Bulger, a bartender, X. Ackley Sackett, the Windward pier cuttist, was arrested tonight after Sackett had thrown a bottle of ink at Bulger with the evident intention of hitting him.
Sackett was brought before Justice of the Peace Wheat at the latter's residence and was allowed to go on his own recognizance. His hearing was set for 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. His action, Sackett claims, was occasioned by Bulger, who with two friends, was standing in the center of the walk before his studio and making insulting remarks concerning his morals. Both men as well as several bystanders received a liberal splashing of the black fluid.

Wedding News
Amidst the standard amount of clatter and ado that inevitably accompanies his big moments, whether they be marriages or mergers, Sheldon Sackett, radio station owner and publisher of an Oregon newspaper, was married again early this week. His first wife, Mills College Grad Beatrice Walton, had died several months previously.
The new Mrs. Sackett was formerly Mrs. Evelyn Schwabe, the divorced wife of a Portland attorney. Sackett has three children of his own and the new Mrs. Sackett brings him three more, thus increasing the population under the Sackett roof to enough to make two tables of bridge, with the parents.

Hillsborough Man Killed in Nevada Snow Accident
Percy Sackett Dies on Road West of Elko
Car Hit Icy Spot and Overturned, Throwing Driver Out.
A prominent bay area certified public accountant, Percy E. Sackett, 52, 457 El Arroyo road, Hillsborough, was killed instantly last night when his car skidded out of control in the midst of a heavy snowstorm near Elko, Nev., overturned and threw him to the pavement.
Associates at Sackett's company, the Percy E. Sackett company at 105 Montgomery street, San Francisco, said he left Hillsborough about 9 a.m. yesterday to drive to Salt Lake City for medical treatment. He had planned to go to Las Vegas on business and had expected to be away about two weeks.
Members of the accounting firm reported that they had contacted Nevada state highway patrol and learned that Sackett, who had planned to spend the night at Elko, had apparently been trying to reach Elko after leaving Reno when he became trapped in the midst of the storm, during which 10 inches of snow fell.
Although there were no witnesses to the accident, officers theorized Sackett's car hit an icy spot on the pavement, skidded around and overturned several times, throwing him out. He apparently was killed instantly when his head hit the pavement.
Other motorists found the wreckage and Sackett's body when they came upon the scene.
Before moving to the bay area about 10 years ago, Sackett practiced in Washington, D.C., where he was also registrar for Stroyer college.
A director of several large corporations, Sackett was a leading income tax expert and held accounts with many large concerns.
A Phi Beta Kappa, he was a graduate of University of Washington at Seattle.
Active in Masonic work, Sackett was a member of Burlingame lodge No. 400, F. & A. M.; the Islam Shrine in San Francisco and the Royal Order of Jesters. He was a past president of the Islam Shrine club of San Mateo.
Other organizations of which he was a member included Lodge No. 1112, B.P.O.E. of San Mateo; the Press and Union League club of San Francisco and the Accountants association of San Francisco.
Survivors include his widow, Dorothea, and two children, Jeanne Anne, 15, and Geoffrey A. Sackett, 13.
Funeral services are pending the arrival of his body Sunday at Crosby-N. Gray chapel in Burlingame.
