Now She Is Having Trouble as Mrs.

CARD FROM MR.. Kissing.
Was Not Candidate for Reappofntment
on Washburn Faculty.

To the Editor of the State Journal.
Having read the articles in the pa
pers regarding the changes at Wash
burn college, I wish to state to the
public the facts concerning nv rela-
uonshiD with that institution.
Upon the resignation of Mr.. Gittle-
son, 1 agreed to finish the school wear
Tor the two violin pupils, on condition
that receive the full amount paid for
the lessons, but refused to connect my
self with the regular faculty Of the col
lege, as regular teachers on the faculty
are not allowed to teach other than
Washburn pupils and the enrolment
IN that department being only two.
While 1, in my private school have an
enrolment Of forty-five pupils, twen-
ty-four Of whom are violin pupils
Therefore I entered an objection sew
eral weeks ago to being considered
again and was informed by Dr. Plass
that written resignation would be
unnecessary since their law causes the
term of each teacher not contracted
on regular faculty to expire at close
of each school year More than the
fact that I could not afford to give up
my large class for such a small posi-
ton, there are other reasons why I
would not be connected with Wash
burn college.

DEPEW SICK IN
SECRET RETREAT
senile Old Man Z with New York OIL
Toga Said to Be an
Aphasia Victim.

Washington, March Ex-senator De-.
pew has not been in the senate for two
weeks. There was circumstantial
story two weeks ago. Sunday that he had
tried to jump out of an automobile on
the way to the railroad station that day
and had been taken to New York, but
this was disproved by the appearance Of
the senator in the senate on Monday
two weeks ago. Next day he did not
come to The capitol, and he has not been
there since. II
Daily inquiries were made. Of his sec
retaries and at his home and the answer
always was that there was nothing Of in
terest to the senator at the senate, and
that he preferred to remain at home
Last Friday his secretaries admitted
that the senator had been in New York
tor ten days, and had not been in
Washington, altho they said he was here
every day and all callers at his house
and all inquiries over the telephones
with his niece. Miss Paulding.
The nervousness that marked Sen
ator Depew's appearance in the senate
after the Christmas recess grew more
marked day by day. During the last
few days he made pretext Of attend
ing to his public duties, but he was SO
nervous that he remained in his seat
but few moments at q time. One of
his secretaries was constantly in the
senate chamber whenever Depew was
there, and watched him like hawk.
| Every time the senator moved about,
the secretary followed him. He wan
| dered around the senate chamber, go
| ing from desk to desk, and went @out
into the lobby and paced up and down
| fifty times every day he was at the
| capitol. His hands were never still
He appeared to be on the verge of a
| nervous breakdown.
Furthermore, the symptoms of apha
STA became more marked. He had diff
fculty in remembering names and faces
He passed people he had known fol
years without recognizing them time an6
again, and at other times would be UNI
| able to recall their names. He, tried
to be cheerful as of old, but it was the
ghost of the old Depew. He was mel
ancholy and always talking to his in
innate friends of the injustice that
had been done him, he said, by the
newspapers and by his old associates
! His friends, particularly Senator
Platt, tried to. cheer. him up, without
). avail. It was stated that when hi
tried to get out Of the automobile hi
did SO because he thought he haG
reached his destination when he wa.
halfway there.

is in New York. He denied that TIT
senator is in a sanatorium.
