PARIS, Nov. 24.-With artistic
disregard for money, Sarah Bern
hardt has dissipated the earnings
Of her last American tour, and to.
day is sadly embarrassed finan.
cially.
The pressure of her creditors
who want money instead of prom.
Uses, has driven the divine one"

the Boulevard Pereire into board.
ing house, where she may re-
trench.
The divine Sarah believes in en-
joying the good things of this
world, and never stints herself
So the comfortable fortune she had
only few months ago, upon her
return from America, is reported
to have vanished, and additional
huge debts have accumulated.

PREFERS DEATH
To WORK

CHICAGO, Nov. 24-Gladstone
Dowie, unkissed son Of the found
err of Zion, for the first time in his
life faces the necessity Of going to
work.
After years of luxury, during
which he has had unlimited means
at his command, without the ne
cessity of toiling for it, the wolf
has begun proving at his door
and his mother and himself, who
by consent of the court are occupy
ing the summer home on the
shores of Wife lake, Mich, have
been reduced to want.
Articles of furniture, trappings
in the stables and even portions Of
the family wardrobe which were
not absolutely essentiak have all
been swallowed up in an attempt
to meet the running expenses or
the household.
Gladstone Dole, who never had
to work, has not learned to do so.
Recently friend who was familiar
with the situation asked him If he
intended to return to Australia or
seek employment in this country.

he is quoted as saying, "hich will
take care of men when the time

TACOMA SUES
MP, RAILROAD

TACOMA, Nov. 24.-The Taco
ma chamber OF commerce has re-
tanned Attorneys Boyle and War
burton and will institute suit
against the Northern Pacific rail-
road in the superior court OF
Pierce county to compel 1t to make
Tacoma its western terminal, with
direct through service.
The suit will be based on the
government land grants which des-
ignated Tacoma as the western
terminal Of the road.
President Jones OF the chamber
of commerce says there is no
animus against the road in the &C
ton, but 1t is simply to get what
are believed to be Tacoma's rights
and to make 1t easy for the COM
pany to accede to them without Of
Tending other cities.
This action comes as a climax to
the long fight which has been
waged to put a stop to the North
ern Pacific Cos. discrimination
aaginst Tacoma.

GOVERNING BOARD RULES
ON STRIKE TROUBLE

The trouble between the Plumb
ers' union and the Smyth Plumb
ing Co. was brought to a head yes
terday when non-union steam
filters weer put to work on the
new Office building Of the Wash
ington Water Power Co. When
the non-union men ent to work the
union plasterers quit and were out
for about two hours. Business
Agent George w. Miller Of the
Structural Trades Alliance induced
the men to return to work pending
action of the board of governors
of the alliance. In making this
demand Mr. Miller pointed out to
right tothe men that they had no
right to quit work before the mat
ter had been acted on by the board.
That board held a meeting last
night and decided that the plumb
ers were not justified in taking the
stand they have in regard to the
plumbing being installed in the
Turner building and in refusing to
furnish men when called upon to
do so when the scale of wages and
union rules were not at issue. The

DEFENSE OFFERS EVIDENCE TO
- PROVE SIDNEY SLOANE INSANE

Sloanes lived on Fifth av. and

was in Brownies addition, a mile
away. The boy used to walk the
distance.
Miss Kilner found it hard to I'M

ton had made little progress.
Miss Boyson, the first witness
called this afternoon, stated that
she had chare Of Sidney Sloane as
his teacher between his sixth and
seventh years. She testified that
he was hard pupil to ct results
from and that it took him twice
as long to complete a certain
course of study as it should have
done.
The next witness called for the
defense was Rev. B. G. Roberts, an
Episcopal minister who taught
Sidney Sloane between his seventh
and eighth years, in local Epis-
copal school. Mr.. Roberts testified
that Sidney was an especially dull
pupil and that he finally gave up
trying to mark his work at all On
one occasion, when witness was
calling at the Sloane home, when
Mr.. and Mrs. Sloane and two other
ladies were present, Sidney sud-
denly rushed into the room with
out stitch Of clothing on and
told them that he was . fairy.
This witness considered that the
defendant was of unsound mind
Sidney Sloane was brought into
court this morning from the Jail
up to Judge Poindexter's court and
thence through the upper corridor
to Judge Huneke's to avoid the
great throng of spectators in the
lower corridor who had assembled
there because heretofore the
sheriff has brought Sidney that
way.

thoroughly, decided to give the
plumbers until Monday morning to
get their grievances fixed up. In
the event Of their failing to do
do the other trades will work with
any men put to work by the SmytH
company, whether union or nom
union.
The action Of the board of gov.
ernors will, it Is believed, 60 far
towards settling the present trou-
BILE.
Architect Zittel expressed his
satisfaction with the stand taken
by the board of governors and said
he hoped that the unions would
stick to their present attitude. He
said he had requested the Smyth
Plumbing company to put nonunion
steamfitters to work on the Turner
building only as last resort. He
said his firm recognized the fact
that the best workmen were union
members and he had done every.
thing possible to maintain friendly
relations with the local organizas

except that the tendency to klep'
tomania was brouht out. Witness
said Sidney was subject to violent
headaches about twice month
which he prescribed for with rem
edies used IN his family. The boy
never succeeded in passing any ex
animation. At one time he turned
in a perfect examination in history
but the professor caught him
copying 1t from a paper up his
sleeve. When Sidney left the
school he gave him no standing
other than that he had attended
The principal Authorizations OF
the boy were about the woman fol.
lowing him and tramp in his
room.
On redirect examination by At.
torney Robertson the professor
said:
young Sloane had freaky ideas
BY that l mean he was a kleptO
maniac-took things belonging to
the other boys and wore them
When found out he would deny
stealing them and say they were
his own. He was so bad the other
boys had to put private locks on
their doors. He never attempted
| concealment"
Professor Boone was then ex
cused from any further attendance
and allowed to go home.
Miss Kilner, who thaught Sid
ney in kindergarten when he was
five years old, was then called
She said Sidney seemed to have nc
sense Of responsibility and was al
ways late. Instead Of playing with
the other children he would 60 off
and suck his thumb and appear to
dream.
The following question, put by
Robertson, provoked about Is min
utes of tiresome effort to re-
arrange the question, it being in
every instance objected to by
Barnhart and the objection sus
tanned:
Miss Kilner, at the time of your
observ atoms Of the boy did you
have an opportunity of ascertain
ing his insanity, idiosy or i'm
becility?"
"No."
The answer surprised Robert
son, and he re-stated it in another
form, but exception was taken and
sustained. The then submitted
that Miss Kilner did not under.
stand the question. He tried to re.
state it in several forms and each
time was excepted to. He said the
court was limiting him in not al
lowing him to show that witness
thought the boy defective.
The cross-examination by the
prosecution was then begun by
Deputy Prosecutor Pugh, who UP
to this time has not taken the
lead. but has been assisting Barn

He brought out that Miss Kill
