AYcDEATJfOUR WIFE Lower Tribunal Gives Such a Decree and Now Supreme ' Court Must Decide.
WIFE ASKED $10,000 BALM Washington, D. C, Oct. 29. Whethdamagea for Injuries received In domestic encounters, Is to be determined by the Supreme Court of the United States. The question will be decided in a suit growing out of the laws of the District of Columbia, but the outcome will be of interest In Illinois and other states where Bimilar laws are la force. ' in the case argued before the Supreme tribunal today Jessie E. Thompson la suing Charles N. Thompson, principal of the Jefferson school,, for damages for seven beatings she alleges she suffered at the hands of her husband In 1903. She wants compensation at the rate of $10,000 per beating. The suit was brought under the District of Columbia law, wbich provides that a wife may bring suits in ber own right. The District Supreme court decided tbat Mrs. Thompson could not sue her husband for personal injuries or for any other reason, and that the district law merely Intended to give a wife the right to sue persona other than her husband. The court held that the common law by virtue of which "husband and wife are one" prevailed over the district law. This decision was upheld by the Court of Appeals. Mrs. Thompson appealed to the highest tribunal to grant her damages. Try Mrs. Austins Famous Pancake Flour, sure' to please, all grocers? PICKED JJP DYING Captain on Wrecked Schooner Was Deserted by Crew and Was Delirious. HAD A CARGO OF LUMBER Galveston, Tex., Oct. 29. After having been abandoned by his crew of seven men, and refused or at least not furnished with food or water, Captain E. E. Walls, of the schooner Holliswood, was picked up 100 miles off the Cam pec he banks last Thursday, October 20, by the steamship' Parkwood, Captain - RT Falcon, which brought the wrecked schooner, with about 680,000 feet of cypress lumber below decks, Into thia port yesterday. Almost dead from exposure and delirious from hunger and drinking salt water for 84 hours, he regained consciousness when aboard the Parkwood and threatened to go back to the schooner unless the Parkwood would bring the dismantled ship into port. Captain Falson feared to tow the rudderless, mast less, sparless and dilapidated storm-cracked schooner with all but 110,000 feet of Its original cargo of lumber, but he finally decided to make the try,- and for one week he battled with the tow .while the old Captain watched from the rail of the steamer. The voyage to Galveston was without a chart, this being the steamer's first trip to Galveston, and with only a scant supply of food aboard. A HOVEL JIOIIEYMOOII Bridal Pair, Crated Like Live Stock and Shipped in a Baggage Car. WAS A JOLLY GOOD "JOKE" Lima, O.. Oct. 29. Crated like live stock and shipped In a .baggage car was the experience of H. A. Kellar, of Columbiana and Miss Hazel E. Holderman, society belle and daughter of Editor Holderman, of Letpsic, who were married In that city recently. The couple had arranged a honeymoon to be spent In the East and were to come here for the midnight Man hattan Express. While they were on their way to the station friends of the bride seised the newly 'wedded couple, bound them securely with ropes and then forcibly conveyed them to a spot where a huge wooden crate had been prepared. It was similar to that used In shipping live stock, with the exception that chairs had been secured In each end of the same. The bride and groom were firmly bound in the chairs about three feet apart. At the Ohio Electric Railway station the friends Insisted that the crated couple be weighed and shipped as live stock, being marked aa "not perishable." They demanded that the crate be billed In accordance with the usual rules and regulations of the express company, but the express agent refused to be a party in the affair, and It finally ended by the party buying two full fare tickets to Lima. . Arriving here at midnight the couple were released and at once left for the East. For years It baa been the custom of Lelpslc to bell - all newly wedded couples and to give them a rousing send-off. but this la the first time that the affair ever vent to such extremes. : '
Ancient Bell From Seville Breaks Its Century Silence
(American Nws Service) San Antonio, Tex., Oct. 29. Scenes of nearly two hundred years ago, with all the picturesque settings of the early Spanish settlement In southwest Texas, were enacted Sunday at the ruined mission on the banks of the San Antonio river three miles from San Antonio which was erected in 1716 and named for Its patron saint, San Juan Caplstrano. Sunday was the feast day of this saint and early in the morning the old bell made in Seville and still banging In the crumbling tower, breaking its long silence, called the faithful to early mass. Once a j-ear on this day the ancient rock and adobe church is again filled with life. Many candles light the gloom on Its dim and mouldy altar and from morn till night the thick walls built by Indians under the supervision of the Franciscan monks echo the prayers and hymns. It is a dramatic link with the past. Solemn high mass is sung by the chancellor of the diocese, the responses being sung by a choir of orphan children; priests in both Spanish and American extol the life of the saint. The masses of the morning are followed in the afternoon by the recitation of the rosary and the benediction of the blessed kcrament. There Is a large procession, the majority taking part being the descendants pf the Spanish settlers, though there are many Americans ' in the brilliant line. It is witnessed by great crowds of.spectators and is an annual event which brings visitors from far oft points, since the long line of priests and acolytes clad in their robes, adds color with the. bright garb, the gay rebosas and feast day dresses of the mantilla clad Spanish women. Along with the spiritual celebration takes place one In which there is feasting and drinking. At midday after solemn high mass, a typical Mexican dinner is served, at which the visiting clergy and the orphans are special guests. Many peculiarly Mexican dishes are on the bill of fare which has a variety seldom seen outside of a Mexican village. Not only are there enchillades, tortillas, chili con carne, tamales, chill con huevas, the raisin and pork stuffed peppers, the delicious and incomparable choc COW HIDES III STATE Pauline Taft's Bovine to Go to Washington in a Draw- ' ing Room Suite.

Ernest Watts, a wealthy young sheep ranchman, of Southern Idaho, and Miss Nannie Hester, daughter of Berry Hester, of Roaring Springs, in Trigg county, were married there as a result of the girl's answering an advertisement about three months ago, which Watts had Inserted in- newspapers, for a wife. Photographs were exchanged, and Watts came on to visit Miss Hester. So well pleased were both parties tbat the wedding was soon agreed to. and performed today. The bride is 23 years old, pretty and talented. It Is reported that the groom's family are all Mormons, but that he is an unbeliever in that faith, and It was hia desire to get a wife from an entirely different section.

The Mission San Juan Caplstrano is surrounded by a stone enclosure which is in a fairly good state of preservation. It was settled by Paamaagues Indians who built not only the church under the direction of Franciscans, but also many one-roomed houses that served the Spanish colonists. It was one of the chain of
missions built to not only spread the gospel among the Indians but to hold Texas to Spain. In order to hold the land the Franciscans were Instructed to build a line of missions extending from the Rio Grande to the Sabine. All the missions were built on the same general plan. ,The roofs pf the chapels were arched but no timbers braced the coverings as they were being constructed. According to the methods in use early in the eighteenth century the building was filled with earth which served as a form or mold over which the roof was built. The towers were constructed In the same manner. Besides affording a place of worship, the missions furnished protection to the monks, the colonists and the Indians who might seek refuge during the frequent uprisings. The walls , were three to four feet thick making a fortress that could have withstood a siege with the guns that were used at that period. In each of the missions was a specially prepared room where a small cannon stood ready and where rifles and muskets could be used to advantage. Each had its dungeon where unruly Indians - were imprisoned. Instead of having separate cells, the prisoners were tied with their hands above their heads to a strong beam. About the only wood used in the construction of the buildings was in the stairway leading into the towers. For this huge trees were used, the steps being hewn in the logs. Underground roads connected all the missions of the system. Aqueducts furnished a supply of water from the San Antonio river although each of the missions was amply supplied from wells. LAW UNSYMPATHETIC Sculptor Elvveil, Sued for Separation Pleads Poverty of His Art. GENIUS GETS NO COMFORT New York, Oct. 29. Sculptor Frank , Edwin Elwell's artistic temperment Is pitted against the law when the trial of his wife's suit for a separation was resumed in the Supreme court, and i the artistic temperment got considerably the worst of the encounter. j Mrs. Elwell, to whom the defendant was married in 18S2, when he was an art student in Paris, testified as to the cause that led up to the parting with her husband In July 1908. The principal reason, she said, was that he refused to permit her to enter their home after some words over money affairs. j On cross-examination, E. Bittener, counsel for tbe sculptor, tried" to show . that Mrs. Elwell is possessed of a large fortune, while EUwell has praci tically nothing. "Is it your proposition that a wife must pay part of the expense of running a home?" asked the. court. "No,' replied the lawyer, "but this man is a genius, who is fond of his art, and his art is not remunerative." "I know of no law,' said Justice Greenbaum, "that grants geniuses any favors over persons in ordinary walks of life." Justice Greenbaum asked ElWeH if he would be willing to take his wife back. "If she will behave," he replied. j There was an objection to this I answer by Lawyer Klssain for Mrs. J Elwell. Mr. Kissam had said that if Mrs. Elwell were granted a separation, she would not apply for alimony from her husband. "What is the purpose of this suit, then?" questioned the court. "If Mr. i Elwell does not want to live with Mrs. Elwell, except under certain conditions to which she will not agree, and if she does not want any alimony, why a suit for separation? "The court cannot compel them to live together any more than it can lead a horse to the trough and compel it to drink." Mr. Bittener moved for the dismissal of the complaint on the ground that Elwell Is not a resident of this state. Justice Greenbaum took the case under advisement allowing the attorneys two weeks to file briefs. s thev - J Ths Best Way.

POLICE OF GERMANY.
frtvacy of the Horns No Bar to Their Farrsaching Authority. ; v To a foreigner no feature of German life is more striking. than the prominence and almost unlimited authority of the police. Many of Its functions are such as in the United States would be intrusted only to a court of la w. What seems almost equally strange, the greater part of these functions are exercised quite independently of the local government. The minuteness and thoroughness of the work of the German police are a constant surprise to the foreigner. The policeman not only preserves order In the streets, but exercises a farreaealng authority in private houses. For instance, he undertakes the nightly locking of one's street door at a sufficiently early hour. He sees that one has his chimney regularly cleaned. He inspects at stated times one's stoves and heating apparatus, and while he is about; It he will look into a few other matters of domestic economy. One feature of his activity strikes a good many American visitors with favor. In some places singing and piano playing with open windows are forbidden, and it is a common house regulation In large towns that no pianos may be played after 10 o'clock In the evening. The German policeman ii also something of a food inspector In bis way. and he keeps a sharp eye on venders of food and of medicines. It Is not an uncommon sight to see a German policeman halt a milkman's wagon and on the spot make an Inspection of hla wares. Should there prove to be anything wrong with them they are promptly seized and destroyed and the matter is immediately taken In hand by the higher authorities. New York Press. A BATHLESS AGE.

or tnese nations were magftreccnt ar chltecturslly and important as centers of hygienic and municipal sentiment. With the decadence ot these countries the world seems to- have reverted to a period of mental sloth and physical nncleanllness. As an authority ou the 'matter puts it: "For 1.000 years there was not a man or woman In Europe that ever took a bath. If the historian of these times. Michelet, Is to be believed: The ancient love of the bath seemed to have disappeared from off the land. There was no Greece or Rome to hold ; up the ensign of cleanliness to the nations of Europe. Small wonder that the people of the continent became physical decadents, as indeed they were in spite of tradition to the contrary, "It is not strange that there came the awful epidemics that cut off onefourth of tbe population of Europe - -the spotted plague, the black death, the sweating sickness and the terrible mental epidemics that followed in their train the dancing mania, the mewing mania and tbe biting mania. "The bath was banished and filth was almost deified. Indeed, it was then thought that the sanctificatlon of the body was only accomplished when that body was indescribably dirty." Physical Culture. ,
