STOP WOMEN

from exercising common sense7 You
can't do It. As the old rhyme runs:
"The mans fool who tries by force or skill

For u she will. she will, you may depend ont
And II she won't she won't, SO there's an end ont"
Common sense tells woman that when
she's sick she needs a doctor
Common sense tells a woman that in
disease the first question is not of man or
woman, but of recognized medical ability.
Common sense applied to advertisements
which invite women to write to woma
because she is a woman and understand
women, will show the women so appeale,
to, that it's no use to write to any woman
about disease unless that woman is
physician.
Common sense used in the reading of
advertisements will discover that no claim
is made i'll them to a physician knowl-
edge or diploma. And that is not because
the claim would be morally culpable as a
lie, but because 1t would be legally pun
jstable as a fraud. The law permits you to
masquerade as a doctor in an advertise
mcnt just SO long as you don't actually
claim to be a doctor, or put NJ. d. after
your name. That's why the advertisement
is worded write to woman " instead of
write to doctor.

UNHAPPY BY AMBITION.
Widows of Noted Men Who Are Now
Miserable.

Miserable.
The recent death of Madame Ba-
zaine, in hospital in Mexico, removes
the first of three famous and unhappy
women whose histories are closely in
tertwined and whose ambitious
schemes have helped to shape the des-
tiny of France. The other two are
Carlotta, the widow of the ill-starred
Emperor Macmillan of Mexico, and
Eugene, the widow of Napoleon Ill,
Emperor of the French. Nine. Ba-
zaine was a Mexican lady and the
friend OF Empress Carlotta. When she
became the wife of Gen. Bazaine, the
marshal of France, Emperor Maximil-
ian gave her a princely dover. She
encouraged her husbands ambitious
projects and remained loyal to him
through all his misfortunes. When he
was sentenced to be degraded and shot
for having capitulated to the Germans
at Metz without having exhausted all
his means of defense, his wife succeed
ed in getting his sentence committed
to twenty years imprisonment without
military degradation. Shortly after
ward she effected his escape from pris-
on and was his comfort and stay until
his death in 1888. Nine. Ba2aine's
friend and patroness, the Empress Car
lotta, is still living in an insane asy-
lum in Brussels. She is the daughter
OF King Leopold of Belgium. When
her husband Macmillan, was compell-
ed to abandon all hope of succeeding
to the crown OF Austria she encourage
ed him to accept the offer Of Napoleon
III. to make him Emperor of Mexico
When Macmillan was hard pressed by
the republican troops in Mexico she
went to France and appealed for as
sistance to Napoleon and Eugenie
Her appeal was refused and she be-
came insane. 1t is said that she does
not to this day know that her husband
was shot in Mexico thirty-three years
ago.
Eugene De Montijo, the widow Of
Emperor Napoleon III, has been no
less unhappy than her two friends,
Nine. Bazaine and the Empress Car
lotta. She lives sad and lonely wo-
man in Chiselhurst, England The
overthrow Of the French empire and
the expatriation and death of her hus-
band crushed her ambitious spirit, and
her bereavement was completed in
1879, when her only son was killed
while fighting against the zulus in
South Africa.

day, an old acquaintance, a French
canadian, whom he had known long
before the tragedy, drifted into Pull
man. He was penniless. ragged and
half-starved, and Phipps, ignoring the
first law of nature, took him in and
cared for him. He bought him a new
suit of clothes and installed him as
Ais right bower In the poolroom.
The vagrant friend knew the story
of the outcast Phipps. who was living
under an assumed name, yet the fugi-
tive trusted him. The reward offered
for Phipps apprehension finally over
came whatever qualms of conscience
the fellow might have possessed, and
ne resolved to become Judas. He
revealed Phipps' identity to Rohan,
and led the latter to the poolroom,
where Phipps WAS innocently engaged
in a game. The informer stood In
recess of the door and pointed out
Phipps to the detective The latter adj
vanced and. tapping the doomed man
on the shoulder, said:
'Phipps. / want you for murder"
The latter's complete surprise and
show OF emotion at once convinced the
detective that he had not been misin-
formed Phipps wilted. He seemed TO
have wearied of the continued exile and
dread of detection, and he simply
turned to the officer and said,
well. l guess it's all up with me"
Then, turning to the man who had
80 treacherously entrapped him, he
conferred upon him the appurtenances
and goodwill of his pool room bust
ness. He never suspected his Judas.
The latter was unsuccessful with his
ill-gotten legacy, and became very dis
sipated and finally left Pullman in the
direst poverty. He never received any
of the reward money. He drifted to
New York to die nameless tramp.
Luke Phipps was hanged June II,
1884, and a grewsome reminder of his
crime and its expatiation is the shell
of the steamer Hope, which lies rotting

RECALLS OLD CRIME.
DEATH IN NEW YORK OF a
HEARTLESS BETRAYER.
Ee Game to the Escaped Murderer O
Wanderer and Was Cared For -
Finally Concluded to Try for the
Hangman's Reward.

There died in a New York liquor
house the other day a man who had
drunk himself to death. His very body
had begun to decay as a result Of con-
tinual saturation with narcotics. He
was known about the saloons as "Jim,
the Bum" but his real name was
James Lesprance. His remains were
carted away to the potter's field, while
his soul fitted to the Judgment, there
TO stand trial for crime for which
the laws of human government pre-
scribe no punishment. Fifteen years
ago Lesprance betrayed into the hands
of the law one Luke Phipps, who on
the night of August 10, 1888, shot his
young wife on a Detroit river ferry
boat. Mrs. Phipps was in company
with a man, stranger to the murder
er. No effort was made to shoot her
companion. The shooting was done
on the Canadian side and Phipps was
at once arrested and held in the Sand
wich, Ont, Jail, for murder in the first
degree. While awaiting trial he es-
capped with some other prisoners but
was recaptured in Pullman, III.
AT the time OF Phipps' capture 1t was
given out that while under the infiu-
ence of liquor he told OF the mtfder,
and revealed his identity; that William
McEwen, son of the then sheriff OF
Essex county, who was employed in
the Pullman offices, heard Of Phipps'
unsolicited confession, and wired his
Gather, who sent on deputies.
In recent conversation with
Detective Andy Rohan of Chi
cago, who arrested Phipps, that
officer revealed to Detroit
detective a story of baseness and
dngratitude on the part of the inform
er against Phipps, that places the first
version at naught. 1t seems that the
wife-slayer broke Jail on November 20,
of the year of his arrest, with anoth-
er murderer named Greenwood and
thief named Seers. They sawed
Through the bars OF their window and
lost little time in getting out of the
queens dominions. Phipps wandered

security, he started poolroom. One
