ATTEMPTED.

Forth Worth. Tex, January 25-Her-
man Plangman, who wrote Governor
Stokes of New Jersey as representative of
the railroad men of this city in behalf of
Mrs. Tolla, has received the following
reply:
So many missta tements have been cir
culated concerning the case of Antoinette
Tolla, now under sentence of death for the
murder of Joseph 6onta, that in justice
to tho state the following statement is
made:
'Antoinette Tolla killed Joseph Sonta on
the 4th day of March, 1906 At the time
of the murder Joseph Sonta was visiting
Mrs. Tollas husband, sitting in a chair
by his side smoking a pipe Mrs TolIa
entered the room, approached behind and
shot him In the head, killing him in
stantly. When found he was still sitting
In the chair, with his feet crossed and tho
pipe in his left hand There is no evil
dence of any kind that Sonta ever at
tempted to assault the woman.
The pardoning power of New Jersey
is not vested in the governor but in a
court of pardons consisting of eight. This
court will sit to hear any appeal in the
way of extenuation to be made in Mrs
Tolla's behalf. Very respectfully,

the bath she slept eight consecutive hours
and dozed most of the day. At the end
of twenty-four hours, when we saw her,
the harsh cries and shrieks had subsidized
into a senseless muttering, as she. ap-
parently contented, splashed the water
with her hands and feet much as she
might have done In her babyhood days.
The patient, who is never left a moment
alone, is taken out of the water at regu-
lar intervals and rubbed with an oily
preparation, to keep the skin in good con-
dition Some have remained In the bath
as long as two weeks before satisfactory
results could be obtained, but more fire.
quently cases yield to treatment in a sur
prisingly short time.
In answer to our inquiries regarding the
care of the insane, the physicians showed
us neatly kept charts, where every detail
of the patients daily history was re-
corded In such a simple manner that the
doctors could see at glance the patients
progress from day to day.
Some of the greatest scientists" the
physician said 'are now giving their at
tenton to the study of diseases OF the
brain, this water treatment being the re-
suit of German investigation. We can
find the nerve centers, continued the
medical man, but the mind is such an
elusive thing 1t is very hard to treat"

A little launch took us from the spick-

TELLS SOUTH HOW
TO RUN AFFAIRS
BUsToN MAN FROM HARVARD
KIND ENOUGH TO TELL THE
SOUTH HOW SHE CAN REDEEM
HERSELF.

Boston, Mass, January 25.--In an adj
dress on the Real South, Commercial and
Social" before the Commercial club here
tonight, Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart of
Harvard, said:
THE only way the south can redeem
itself industrally is to turn to the long
and almost thankless task of eievating to
the highest point 1t can reach the lower
element of Its population both white and
black"
Professor Hart endeavored TO show that
the south was behind the north, east and
northwestern sections of the country in
crops, property valuation, national banks,
railroad mileage, farm values and manu-
facturers, and that in some communities
of the south, the valuation is less than
in the times of slavery.

Heavy sleepers,

From the Baltimore Herald.
A boiler exploded the other day in New
Jersey and the roof was blown off the
house, but one occupant failed to wake
up. Various grades of apple Jack" are
made in Jersey, which may account for
the peculiar conditions at the explosion.
There are advantages and disadvan-
ages connected with heavy sleeping. The
sound slumberer does not hear the voice
of cats In the night nor the cries of chill
dren. nor the movements of the burglar.
He encourages the manufacture of alarm
clocks and patronizes the men who sell
sausage and cheese for supper.
The light sleeper can save money by
being compelled to eat toast and drink
tea for supper, and he is sure to hear the
voice that calls him early in the morn
ing to make the fire and let the cook in
by the back gate. His temper is likely
TO be worse than that of the heavy sleep
err because he has more work TO do The
light sleeper is frequently also the hem
pecked husband.
