WASHERWOMAN LOSES TITLED HUSBAND
BUT MAKES $5O0,0OO ON DEAL

| BERLIN, Nov. 12.-When Count
Fancis Erasmus Erbach, eldest son
of the head of the Erbach family
eloped with pretty peasant girl
| on his fathers estates there was
| CONSERVATION among his kinfolks
and sensation throughout Ger
many. For the Erbachs are royal
family as far as rank goes, and in
spite of having lost their do
minions to powerful Prussia, they
still retain the right to select
their mates from among the bluest
blood of any royal house.
Young German noblemen have
frequently fallen in love with
pretty girls on their fathers es-
tates, and seldom have the maidens
succeeded in carrying affairs to a
point beyond the ordinary limits of
such entanglements. So when the
astute young woman gained the
counts consent to marriage there
was strenuous opposition from his
family, and his friends and &C
quaintances showered ridicule upon
him.
eing hot-headed youth he chal-
lenged several of his former cron-
les and when in succession of
duels he had left them bleeding on
the field of honor, this Goth century
descendant of medieval knights
fastened to the side of his plebeian
lady love. They eloped in an auto
and were married in England.
Having the legal right to do so
the head of the Erbach family i'm
mediately called conference OF
the clan and in executive session
the chivalrous lover was disinher
tied.
BY single stroke OF an Erbacf
pen this giddy descendant Of by
gone kings was deprived OF an in
heritance of four large estates ant
a fortune amounting to some $50,
100000.
Reduced to absolute restitution
the romance in his alliance quick
ly disappeared. The couple were
forced to beg on the streets o
Paris. Finding also that hi!
brides tastes and education did no
make her a congenial companion
the young count bitterly repented
SO when he was approached by ;
willy member of his former house
hold he listened to the Erbacl
scheme for restoring him to hi
own.
A fortune of half a million dol
lars satisfied the claims of thu
peasant countess and the young
scion of royalty was then sent t
a private sanitarium. It is under
stood that a certificate of insanity
declaring he was not responsible
for his acts, will soon be issued
and that with this in their posses
sion the Erbachs will take steps
to have the marriage dissolved.

sister. medical friend and an expert
for the defense. have all now declared
DIR. ]. B. Matthews insane. There has
been no effort TO refute the testimony or
the prosecution that he was caught in
iecting poison in his wife with his hand
concealed under the bed clothes. while
pretending TO pray at the side OF the
bed. His counsel is trying only to prove
that when he did this he was mentally

The sister testified that her brother
from childhood had shown signs of an
unbalanced mind and had never been
quite sane. DR.. ]. w. Griffith said he
had seen Matthews do insane things
often and give Mrs. Matthews, as well
as the prisoner himself. drugs.
A question based on. premises reciting
the insanity OF ancestors and certain
acts "a Matthews brought from an ex-

these things is probably insane.
Today. the attorneys for the defense
will continue the attempts To elinch this
testimony with further evidence of in

the doctor was too weak mentally TO

NEED OF THE NOTARIES
NOW BECOMES APPARENT
Presidents Order Prohibiting Accept
ance of Fees During Office Hours
Causes Inconvenience.

Ever since President Roosevelt is
sued the order prohibiting Government
employees who were notaries public
from accepting fees for oaths admin
tstered during office hours, various
bureaus and divisions have from time
to time complained to the head OF
their department about the difficulty
in securing the services of notaries in
the transaction of official business.
The latest complaint In this direction
comes from the Steamboat Inspection
Service. Some days ago the Secretary
of Commerce and Labor sent a letter
to the Comptroller OF the Treasury,
stating that the department was desfr-
Gus of paying for a commission and
seal as notary public for certain clerks
in the Steamboat Inspection Service, in
order that they may administer. free of
charge, oaths for which the Govern
ment would otherwise have to pay
Before the Presidents order there
was little difficulty in securing the ser
vices of a notary, as many of the
clerks held commissions, but almost
every one failed to renew their license
at the expiration of its authority
There are few branches Of the ser
vice, where the offices of a notary are
more frequently required than in the
Steamboat Inspection Service. The
law requires that the inspection reports
of all Inspectors shall be verified be-
fore notary public.
In his letter TO the Comptroller, Sec
retary Metcalf stated that in New
York alone over 800 certificates are
made out by the inspectors, which. If
verified before a notary public. would
cost the Government 1915. Mr.. Met
calf said that prior to the order of the
President in March. 1905. OathS were
