STILL KEEPS UP.
Mrs. Rogers Has Not Been Told of the Effort Being
 Fade In Her Behalf.

Windsor, Vt, Feb Mrs Mary A. Rogers. condemned to be executed on Friday for the murder of her husband. has not been informed of the attempt which is being made to have Governor Charles J. Bell grant reprieve. The prison officials do not care to have her learn of the proceedings. because failure. it is felt, must cause keen dis appointment. It is not probable that the woman will be informed of the latest pressure now being brought to bear on Governor Bell until he has an nounced his final decision.
 At the prison this forenoon it was stated that Mrs ROgers's demeanor had not apparently changed and that there was no indication of collapse.
 Rev J. K. Fuller. the prison chaplain, who has attended Mrs Rogers, is among those who have gone to Mont, peller to appear before the governor to-day to urge a reprieve.
 Montpelier, Vt, Feb 1.--There have been few occasions on which popular interest in this city has been more deeply stirred than it is by to-days pending proceedings in the case of Mrs Mary Rogers, who Is condemned to be hanged on Friday for the murder Of her husband. The announcement that Governor Bell. almost at the last mo- ment. had decided to hear those who are working to secure a repreve for the condemned woman, made last night aroused almost universal SnncI1- lation as to the outcome of the pro- ceedings, the majority apparently be- lieving that the governor would favor Mrs Rogers's friends.
 The morning trains were expected to bring Governor Bell. Sheriff II. H. Peck and Deputy Sheriff Lowell, J. k. Fuller. chaplain of the state prison; T. J. Moloney. counsel for Mrs Rogers: Mrs William J. Blickensderfer of Stamford, Conn. and Charles A. Me Carthy of Hoosick Falls, \. Y., counsel for Mrs Blickensderfer.

a young woman who was part Hawaiian
but who had been educated in the
Estates, !" taught lacemaking to small
class Of girls. The work found so much
favor that she was asked to teach it in
the Kamehameha school for girls. Later
it was carried into the Oahu college
also for girls, and when Miss Adams
finally gave up teaching the legislature
was petitioned to make an appropria-
ton to install the work in the schools
This was done and Mrs. Bronson was
asked to take charge. Since then she
has been teaching patterns of pillow
lace to be used as models, but from now
on the products of the classes will be
sold, and the proceeds turned back to
pupils, except certain amount which
will be reserved for materials. Mrs.
Bronson trained two native girls, who
will have charge Of the lace department
for the next two years, and she is very
hopeful that the clean, beautiful work
she taught will be very helpful to the
native women.
Mrs. Bronson was a pupil of Miss
Sybil Carter, who introduced lacemak-
ing among the Indians of the north
west, Nebraska, California and New
York. She is on her way east now to
do special work under Miss Carter,
probably in western New York. Thru
September she will be with her sister,

people have ever produced. The book

The plot, it is frankly admitted, does

campus at Yale, where the millionaires
go. There arrives Philip Sauerbraten,
who has become wealthy in the deli
