Wanted To Be His Wife.
SYMPATHY WITH THE WOMAN
Offers of Money for Defense and Her
Meals Free.

Mrs. Bradley was hysterical all day.
She made frequent inquiries as to the
condition of her victim. Her attorneys
say she is on the verge of a collapse.
According to the police several west
ern politicians have notified her that
they are willing to furnish money for
her defense. Several local restaurants
telephoned the matron at the house Of
detention that they would gladly serve
Mrs. Bradley's meals free of cost. A
representative of the Salvation Army
also offered assistance.
There is no doubt of the adulterous
connection of the two. kilograms from
Salt Lake City confirm the woman's
story in that respect. They We're both
arrested three years ago for immoral
conduct, on charges filed by Browns
wife, who has since died. She, how
ever, withdrew her charge, although
Mrs. Bradley pleaded guilty. Brown
is a native of Kalamazoo, Mich, and
left there for Utah thirty years ago.
His late wife was a Miss Cameron, of
Kalamazoo
Mrs. Bradley's former husband has
remarked and is living in Nevada with
his second wife While Brown was
fighting for his life at the hospital,
three blocks away Mrs. Bradley was
pacing the floor of the matron's room
in the police station anxiously inquir-
ing every few minutes as to the con
dition of her victim. 81 loved the
ground he walked on" she continu.
! ally remarked.

Washington. Dec. 10. = United

ley, Of Salt Lake City, in his apart
ments at the Hotel Raleigh Saturday
afternoon, lies in q very critical condi-
ton at the Emergency hospital. The
doctors announce that he has a chance
of recovery, but his friends admit that
there has been a change for the worse
and think his recovery IS extremely
doubtful. There are symptoms Of peri
tOnitis, which the physicians fear may
lead to blood poisoning. Brown has
not given out any statement since he
went Oh the operating table at the
hospital, and the doctors will not per
nit any one to see him.
The Mother OF His Children"
Brown was shot by the woman aft
er an interview in his room. AS he
lay on the floor all he SAID was-indi-
eating the wOman-"She shot me-"
When the proprietor of the hotel was
doing what he could for Brown she re-
NAMED in the room, but did nothing to
help. Finally Tally, the hotel proprie-
tor. ordered her to leave the room. She
declined with absolute GOODNESS to CON-
ply with the order. 81 will remain
here" said she, Il am the mother Of
his two children" That tells the whole
story. Another case of woman who
loved not wisely but too Well"
Wouldn't "Do the Right Thing"
II asked him if he was going to do
the right thing by me-" she said later,
maintaining a remarkable composure.
His reply was that he put on his
overcoat and started to leave the room
and | shot him. l abhOr acts Of this
character, but in this case it was fully
! justified" While expressing no sor-
row for her act she declared that she
was glad to know that Senator Brown
might recover. II was practically pen

Wanted To Be His Wife.
She said she urged Senator Brown
| to marry her: that he had been instru-
mental in the divorce between her hus-
band and herself, and that as his wife
was dead he now could do the right
thing by her This she said he posi-
! lively refused to do.

Charlottesville, Ind, Dec 10. =
Relatives here havebeen informed that
james E. Zook, ex-mayor of Ballard,
Wash, and a former resident Of this
county. has won In the famous breach
of-promise suit brought against him.
During his official term IN 1904 Mayor
ZoOk and Miss Rosana Grover, Of Bal
lard, were beTothed The latter had
the preparation Of her wedding trous-
seau well under way when Zook sud
denly broke the engagement, giving as
his reason therefor that his fiance was
afflicted with consumption
Lower Court Was Sympathetic.
BY reason Of the prominence Of the
persons and the questions Of human
Interest presented, the case attracted
widespread attention, and was the sub
Iect Of much comment, especially
among the medical profession. Miss
Grover sued for breach Of promise, and
In spite Of his plea Washington jury
gave theplaiptiff judgment for $4,000,
which was cut to $4,000, however by
the trial judge. An appeal was taken,
and ex-mayor Zool has just won in
the supreme court.
Best Way with Bad Bargain /?
That tribunal has reversed the iudg
ment of the superior court on the the
DRY that bad bargain IS better broken
than kept, and has directed the dis
missal Of the case. 1t was brought
out in the first trial that in breaking
the engagement Zook Informed Miss
Grover that he believed it was for
their own best interests, as well as
society in general, that they should not
marry. The fact that both Of his par
ents had died of consumption was
urged as a further reason for their not
marrying.
Opposed to Public Policy.
In giving the decision the court said:
ut IS fundamental proposition that a
contract contravening the provisions
or policy Of n pubic law is void or
voidable. No one can estop himself
from proving facts which will show a
contract to be opposed to public policy.
1t having been the privilege, and, as
we believe, the moral and legal duty
of appellant to decline to carry out
the agreement, he cannot be held re-
sponsible in damages for so doing"

"TRILBI" REVIVED.
Jane Cakes Pleases in the Name Part-Wi II
ton Lackaye as ~"Syengali."

.Trilby,. with Wilton Lackaye as
| Srenpoh, was revived last night at the
Academy of Music. Paul Potter's dram
atization of the late George Du Maurier's
famous tale Of the Latin Quarter, TdfH,
Little Rillec ard the maiden of the perfect
feet was first produced more thar ten
years ago..
Last nights revival served to introduce
Miss Jane Cakes, who has been Mr..
L~ackaye's leading woman in The Pit"
and other plays, as Trilby. Miss Cakes, if
the warm applause Of a large audience
NAV be taken as evidence, achieved success.
Her portrayal OF the beautiful model Of
the Quarter who was hypnotized by Spen-
qdli was extremely pleasing. Walter PEN
nington as Tdfy, A. H. Stuart as The Laird
and Frank Dekum as Lutte Billie sup
ported Mr.. Lackaye and Miss oaker &C
ceptably.
At the conclusion Of the third act APP
plause forced Mr.. Lackaye to appear be-
fore the curtain and a a speech, although
he did-it unwillingly, sensible Of the alb
surdity OF Suengdli dying horribly across
a table top and then coming to life almost
instantly to make a pretty little talk.
The evenness Of the performance was
married by defects in stage management,
but then the audience forgot in the thrills
that L~ackaye's Suengdh gave.

Church Association for the Advancement

getting a presiding officer for the first
session Of the fourth annual convention OF

Hall of the Cathedral of st. John the Divine
yesterday morning. Three bishops had
promised to come but lone showed up.
Three clergymen impressed into stopgap
service scooted after a few moments each
in the presidents chair. The Rev, F. j. @.
Moran finally took the chair and stayed out

The way to educate the people is to shorten
the hours and let the public accommodate

discussed Municipal Housing" declaring
that no progress has been made here to-
ward that end. Il thank Cod he added,
that it has been left to Theodore Roosevelt
to take the first steps to eliminate the slums
of Washington. 1t is a glarihg shame
that Congress has permitted conditions
so evil to exist in the capital of the United
States, where there is no excuse for them.
Let the association take up the cudgels TO
eradicate the slum."
The Rev. Mr.. Moran took the floor with a
statement Of the planst the association has for
betterments here. When information is had

concerning what has been done by that
body toward better housing a committee
Of the association is to go before the New
