DIED AT ST. ELIzABETH'S.
The story of BerthH Weber, an In
mate for Fifteen Years.

Over at St. Elizabeths Asylum for the
Insane yesterday. Bertha Weber. woman
of high family standing. for fifteen years
an inmate of the institution. died of OK
haustion. She became a patient at the
early age of fourteen, and has since re-
mained at the asylum. In this city. Mrs.
Mary Kleps. of 4i2 R Street northwest. a
relative of the deceased, has been lotifed
of her death
As young girl, Bertha Weber was
taken to the asylum, a sufferer from
epilepsy She was then pretty. well-form-
ed. and gave promise of healthy woman
hood. This was in the fall Of 1856.
Miss Weber had been attending school,
She stood high in her studies. had many
friends. and there we're those who enyied
her Then she became i'll. This illness
seems to have been hereditary. and devel-
oped sort Of demeltia. Even at this
time the young girl srfered from spasms
or FITS, resulting from q protracted ill
ness.
No pains were spared by friends to bring
about Improvement in the young girls
mental condition. Physicians did THAR
best, but the maledy was not TO be
cured.
The parents of the girl finally sent her
TO St. Elizabeths. 1t was thought that
she might respond readily to treatment,
and soon be able to leave the asylum. This
proved a faliacy.
1t is said that Miss Weber never de-
parted from the institution. Friends Wis
tied her there. yet she never visited them.
AS time passed the malady grew worse.
Frequently she suffered from commissions,
in one CT which she passed away
II is not yet known what the funeral
arrangements will be. 1t is probable that
relatives viii take charge of the remains.

To he Given Redirect Examination
by the District AttOrney-Coun-
sci for Mrs. Bonine Confident
of Winning Their Case.

Attorneys Douglass. Fulton. and Keene,
the counsel for Mrs. Bonine, on trial
for the murder Of James Seymour Ayres,
after carefully going over all Of the tes-
timony given thus far by the witnesses
for the prosecution, are confident that
the accused woman will be acquitted.
They have not called a single witness for
the defence. yet have managed to com
bat the theory held by the prosecution.
When the session is resumed at u
o'clock this morning Dr.. Glazebrook, the
Deputy Coroner. Will resume the stand
and will be given redirect examination
by District Attorney Gould
Attorney Douglass stated yesterday
that he expected to have no diihculty III
disproving every charge laid down IN the
theory of Attorney Taggart. He has
number of surprises in store. and claims
to have not the slightest doubt as 10 the
verdict in the case.
Three other physicians have yet to ap-
pear on the stand, and Mr.. Douglass Is
ready for them He expects to obtain
much that is important from them. The
Government has stin about twenty-five
witnesses to call before the defence can
have an opportunity TO begin with its
direct evidence. At the present rate OF
progress the trial will. however. be con-
cluded in less than three weeks.
One of the most elaborate dinners ever
prepa red by a local restaurant rs that to
wt:.i ii the twelve Jurors sat down
TO al o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Justice Anderson decided that the men
should have such Thanksgiving dinner
as would not cause them to miss what had
been prepared at their homes.
The Jurors were taken for a walk twice
Yesterday, and appeared to enjoy the
crisp winter air.
For the first time since the jurors have
been locked up they>were yesterday given
some reading matter. Justice Anderson
himself gathered together collection OF
magaZines and treatises on morality and,
after careful examination of each page,
sent them to the jury room. where they
we're eagerly deyoured. Permission was
asked from the attorneys on both SIDES
as to whether the men could have some
reading matter. District Attorney Gouid
said he had no objection. so long as the
literature was ancient and had no bear
ing on the trial
Give the men anything they want
was the reply made by Attorney Dougiass'

fused to settle, and Williams struck him
on the head with a club. Kraus died al
most immediately.
Plan to Dispose of Body.
The three were alone in the house and
while at first overcome by his act VII
liams soon hit upon plan to conceal the
deed. He procured a rubber blanket and
a quantity of oilcloth and with some as
sistance frcm his wife tied the body of
Kraus up in a bundle SO as to completely
disguise its resemblance to 4 human form.
The body was carefully placed in corner
Of the room. the intention being to re-
