BUR- sNGToN. II. u, August io.
Frank Badd, a wealthy shoe manufsc.
turer. has cut his VIE allowance from
$4,000 a year to 500 a week. The
trouble between Budd and his wife
covers a period OF four years and pfi-
mariiy caused by charges brought by
Mrs. Budd. who also alleged that her
husband wins DESTROYS OF obtaining a
divorce. Budd makes a general de.
NAL and says his act was due 10 the
family's extravagance.
Budd was a poor man thirty years
ago and worked In the shoe factory
OF Robert T. Wood In this city IN
another part OF the same factory Miss
Name Powell was employed. They
met and soon afterwards married.
Budd started in the business for him
self in u small way. From the Begin
ming he prospered and In less than
twenty years had made a fortune.
Three daughters were born, May.
Alice and Goldie. and to them the
father was devoted. Each was lIber.

a, team OF horses Of her own and not
a single reasonable Wish was denied
them.

the home OF his wife until a few days

reached.
One Of the daughters wrote to her
father TINT she wanted to see him.
and when he called at the house with.
the superintendent Of the factory. he
was not only refused admission but
was not permitted to see the girl.
This SO exasperated Btidd that he cut
the allowance Of $4,000 q year to

When seen by a reporter Mrs. Budd
would say nothing. Mr.. Budd, who
was seer at Atlantic City. said that
while Mrs. Budd's allowance had been
cut, he would see that none OF the FAM

that the family not only spent their
regular allowance last year. but ex-
ceeded It by $4,000. He said he had
no intention Of bringing an action for

Friday evening, June 80, on a special

early the morning Of the first. The
night before I thought it would be
hard to go through Benwood without

so was spared any pulls at my heart
strings. The death of Mr.. Hay was
made known to us that morning, and

cago that evening we did not know
whether we would proceed or not.
Secretary Taft felt that If the Presi-
dent desired him to remain he would
have to give up the trip, and many of
us did not want to proceed unless he
was with is. But at the windy
City" that fear was removed, Secre-
tary Taft receiving instructions to go
ahead, and We sped westward on one
of the fastest trains leaving that city.
The trip across the continent was the
usual one. Mrs. Scott and myself
have taken 1t a number of times, and
the only change was in the number
of friends by whom we were sur.

black SMOKE, and at the same time
turning 1t to use, is adopted in some
Belgian factories. The smoke is driven
by fans Into a porous receptacle,
over which flows a stream of petro.

is thus caught and turned into gas
