STANFORD UNIVERSITY March
24.-AlI that was mortal of Mrs. Jane
Lathrop Stanford was laid away to-
day beside her husband and son, in the
palatial mausoleum on the campus of
her dearly beloved university AL
though the body of the dead philan-
thropist was not taken from the STAN
ford mansion until o'clock in the
afternoon, large crowds began to flood
the campus at an early hour in the
morning. Hundreds of inhabitants of
had personally known the dead bene-
factress, were among the first to ar
rive. Then came the special trains
bearing pallbearers, mourners and Off
cial representatives of organizations
from all parts of the state, until the
Palo Alto estate which lay peacefully
in the warm sunshine of a beautiful
day, became peopled with over 10000
persons, who had come to participate
in the last sad farewell to the body of
a remarkable woman.
Shortly after 1 o'clock the casket
bearing the remains was taken from
the residence by the strong arms of
eight prominent student athletes who
had been carefully chosen for the task.
The great metal box was placed in the
hearse, which waited at the door. The
small cortage. consisting of half doz-
en- carriages bearing the relatives, a
short line of employees and the immed-
ate pallbearers, started the solemn
march to the Memorial chapel. The
route followed lay along the winding
tree-bordered road leading from the es-
tate. All the way to the church hun
dreds of people who had been unable
to get an entrance to the church
thronged the roadsides to get a view
of the casket.
AS the sad procession approached the
university buildings the west gate of
the inner quadrangle swung open to
receive the cortege. Here the honorary
pallbearers joined the procession. The
| stalwart athletes again took up their
charge and the slow march began
across the wide cement court to the
great Memorial chapel erected by the
woman whose last remains were being
carried therein.
Meanwhile the huge edifice had been
filled according to the reservations
made for the various sections of the
congregation. In the transepts were the
family, the faculty, the employees of
the university and of the estate, press
representatives and the alumni.
Many Unable to Enter
The front rows of seats in the main
portion of the church were reserved
for those who made up the approach

WOMAN KILLED AS SHE SLEPT
Charles S. Rogers, Well Known Patent
Attorney, Fires Bullet Through
Wife's Head Before COM
mitting Suicide
KILLED AS SHE SLEPT

Worried by condition of constant
nervousness and collapsing under the
mental strain, Charles s. Rogers, a
patent lawyer "a years old, shot and
Killed his wife at his home, 1907 Har-
ward boulevard, Thursday night and
then turned the revolver on himself ana
committed suicide.
Rogers. who was one of the most
prominent patent lawyers in the west
and who was a son of Attorney James
r. Rogers, went to his home Thursday
night suffering from a mental collapse,
brought on by nervousness His little
son Henry aged 10 years, was sent to
bed at an early hour, while Rogers
stayed in the parlor below talking with
his wife.
Shortly before o'clock the boy, who
slept across the hall from the room of
his father and stepmother, heard the
two come up from down stairs and go
into their room and lock the door. A
few moments later, and Just as he dozed
off to sleep he heard his mothers sharp
exclamation, "Oh! Charles!" When he
awoke yesterday morning he knocked
repeatedly on his fathers door, but
being unable to awaken him he went to
the Twenty fourth street school and re-
mained there until noon Returning
home he found the servant at work, but
she had heard nothing from the at
torney or his wife,
Finds Parents Dead
The lad then walked to the door of
his fathers room and looked through
the keyhole. The bed was in full view
and his stepmother lay upon it with
her eyes closed as though asleep. The
boy knocked and then looked and
gasped in horror. Above his mothers s
head he saw her hand raised with a
handkerchief i'm it, while dark stain
of blood covered her night clothes and
the bed.
The boy alarmed neighbors and tele-
phoned for clerks in his fathers office,
who took charge of the house. Detec-
tives Steel and Craig broke in the door
of the room and found both the hus-
band and wife dead. The body of
Rogers was partly doubled and resting
on the side of the woman. small
bullet wound in the left side of her head
behind the ear showed where the lead
had entered, while a bullet hole in
Rogers right temple explained the
suicide.
A small revolver was found in the
hand of the dead man and two cham
bers were empty. 1t is thought the
tragedy occurred early in the night.
No powder burns were discovered on
the wounds in either of the bodies and
careful investigation will be made
by the detectives today.
The woman was about "a years of age
and had been married to Rogers five
months. She was formerly a teacher
of languages in the Girls Collegiate
school and at that time was Mrs.
Jeanne Bloomstein. Rogers was di-
vorced from his first wife about a year
and half ago.
An inquest will be held at Pierce
Bros undertaking rooms today.

Tact in Reproof.

Advice or reproof does more harm
than good when it is so rudely or
roughly given that it brings humil!a-
ton or indignation. If from your real
afectionate regard for relative you
wish to point out to her or TO him an
error or correct fault, do so as gent
y and as cautiously as you know how.
and do not try to correct mistakes or
point out shortcomings too often, says
the Washington Star. Give your ad-
vice in private and always give less
advice than sweet, complimentary
speeches. A compliment is not less
but more relished when ii comes from
4 member of ones family than when
i, is tribute won from a stranger.
and these signs of appreciation that
YOU give of some dear ones wit. wis
com or beauty are little home truths
hat are ever affectionaJely remem-
rod and come ever like gentle dews
