NATURE SPARES
The stricken Rose From Grief.

What fortunate provision Of nature
It is that depriyes the rose OF mental
suffering; for how poignant would be its
grief to discover, in the height Of its
blooming glory that a canker fed at its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a vertabe
store-house Of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair ana grayncss have
east gloom over the lives Of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vcstigations Of scientists the true cause
Of hair destruction is now known to he
germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair folllcles Newbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
ture intended Sold by leading drug

GOLDEN STATE
ISEXT'RAEAC

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 23.-State Con-
troller Colgan estimates the ex-
penses of the State Government for the
next two fiscal years at $13, ,750,657 for
necessary expenses and fixed charges
only. In addition there comes into the
treasury money from other sources
than taxation, by which the above
amount is raised $4,000, 900. This
makes a total expenditure of more
than $15,000,000 In two years. and is
considered an extravagant total for
State of California's population. In
these amounts nothing is included for
new buildings and repairs to old ones,
nor any idea had of the hundreds of
claims which will be made upon legis-
lative iberality.
If appropriations are kept within the
limit of his estimates the tax rate will
be for each of the next two years $O439,
exclusive of 2 cents for the State Uni
versity. He has included in his esti-
mate the cost of the new courts to be
about $500, 900 for two years. There re-
mains TO be paid $4,000 in each year
for the Big Basin purchase. The needs
of the State hospitals he has included
as estimated by their superintendents.

YIELDED
TO STUDENTS
Columbia Faculty Passes
the Gould Case Back to
Undergraduates for Action
NEW AGREEMENT MADE
Rules Drawn Up Which the
College Boys Promise to
Enforce in the Future

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-A truce has
been arranged between the faculty Of
Columbia University and the sopho-
more class, which resented the sus-
pension of four of its number for par
ticipation in the Kingdom Gould hazing
affair and which had threatened to
quit the university in q body.
The student board, represented by
the presidents of the various classes,
both college and science, met Dean
Hutton to-day to discuss the suspen-
sion Of the four sophomores. Their
decision was that the suspension will
be left primarily in the hands Of the
student board
The conditions under which this was
arranged are: 1. The student board
will prohibit ha ing in all obnoxious
forms. g. Freshmen will be under the
surveillance of the sophomores. g. Any
case of freshness" of the underclass-
men will be brought to the attention
of the board and it will serve notice
on the student that his actions nave
aroused the animosity of the sopho-
mores and it will fix penalty which
he must pay. 4. There will be an un-
derclass fight and the winners will have
the right to summon the officers OF the
defeated class to appear at their din
her.
This is expected to do away with the
capturing of freshmen by the second
year men.
A formal statement issued to-day by
President Nicholas Murray Butler, an
nouncing the suspensions, dealt at
length with the enforcement of college
discipline at Columbia. In this con-
nection the statement said:
The university will not permit to pass un-
noticed any annoyance of an individual student
or any attack upon him by a committee or
group of other students, whether this goes oy
the name of haZing or otherwise There is no
elaborate code of rules at Columbia the vio-
lation Of any one of which will subject the
offender 10 academic discipline. Every student
is treated as a gentleman and is expected TO
conduct himself as a gentleman. Whenever
case has been reported which involved the per
secution of any individual freshman by group
Of sophomores who could be identified academic
discipline has followed and will follow with
increasing severity until the practice is
stopped

POLICE OFTEN PRESENT
TO WARN MONNIER JR-
Witnesses of the Department Say De-
ceased Winemalxer Sometimes
Appealed to Them

A fair representation of all grades
of the Police Department was present
yesterday in Judge Graham's court
during the hearing of the Monnier
will contest. A detective, a patrol
man, one sergeant and police cap
tain testified as to their efforts to keep
the peace in the Monnier household.
The witnesses were called by George
d. Collins for the proponent to show
the general quarreIsomeness of the
younger Monnier. All testified that
the father had asked them several
times to speak to his son, but never
actually requested his arrest, al
though it was suggested by the po-
Hcemen.
Mrs. Monnier was on the stand dur
ing the latter part of the day and con-
tinued her testimony as to the return
of George Monnier from Europe and
the subsequent quarrels between hus-
band and wife, eliminating in a suit
for divorce brought by the young
husband. Mrs. Monnier emphatically
denied that he was in any way the in
stigator OF the action. She also de-
MED the testimony of witnesses for
the contestant as to who began the
quarrehng in the Monnier home.
Henry c. Hacke was placed on the
stand by the defense to tell of the
poisoning of himself and family by pie
bought at the same bakery that the
Monniers patronized. The poisoning
of both families took place on the
same day.
The defense called great many
witnesses to testify as to the trouble
between father and son and the quar-
rels growing out of card games at the
Monnier home The witnesses were
E. L. Head, Joseph Roylance, j. S.
Godeau. Joseph Dole. Richard Nc
Coy, Hakon Bjorn, Policeman James
A. Feeney. Sergeant James T. Dom
ovan. Detective Robert F. Graham
and Captain M. o. Anderson.

P6INCESS MAY
FORFEIT COIN
Breaks Agreement on Which
Allowance Was Granted by
Making Trip to Dresden
REMAINS IN LEIPZIG
Circumstances of Her Leav-
inc Court Now Said to
Have Been MisrepreSented

DRESDEN. Dec. 23.-Countess Mon
tignoso. formerly the Crown Princess
Louise Of SaNony. the divorced wife of
King Frederick Augustus, by coming
TO Dresden and trying TO see her chill
dren yesterday has probably forfeited
her allowance Of $500, which was
granted her on the condition that she
would not set foot on German soil. This
condition, however, may not be en-
forced, as popular sentiment in favor
Of the Princess is so strong already
that the court viii avoid anything that
will give the impression of Furnishing
her for her natural womanly feelings.
The version Of the Countess misad-
venture commonly believed in the
kingdom of Saxony is that she is
euiltIess of actual wrongdoing, and is
The victim Of an intrigue Of the Center
party. which is described as using un-
scrupulous means TO prevent a strong
Liberal from becoming Queen The
circumstances Of the Countess leaving
the court are so overlaid with fiction
that the truth probably will be un-
known 10 the present generation Of
Sax0ns.
LEIPZIG, Saxony, Dec. 2S.-Count-
ess Montignoso (former Crown Prin-
cess Louise) is still here Inquiries at
the villa Of DR.. Zehme, her counsel
brought an answer from the attorneys
wife that the Countess was not yet in
a condition TO travel, the mental eX-
citemert Of the last few days having
told severely upon her physical
strength
Il seems that the Countess was over
come by a sudden impulse TO see her
children and left for Florence without
Informing her parents at Salzeburg or
anybody in SaNony.
II is firmly denied here that the
Saxon Government has issued an Or
der for the expulsion Of the Countess
from Saxony.
Much excitement prevails over an ex-
preston which the Countess is said
to have let drop. She is reported to
have said: Il love my Saxon land
am coming back soon
This utterance supposedly refers TO
a conditional promise given by the
Kings representative at her hotel here
that she might hope 10 see her children
after the excitement in the kingdom
had further subsided.
The Dresdener Journal says the
Countess purposed seeing the King as
well as her children and that the
Kings representative informed her that
a meeting was impracticable-
