TESTIMONY IN
CASE Of ANNIE BROWN

Brown knew whether they were or
not, he should marry the woman and
give the children his name.
Advised Woman to Go Away.
He testified that he told Mrs. Brad
ley afterwards that, in his opinion,
Brown did not intend to marry her.
and advised her to so away and make
the best of it that was possible. He
said Mrs. Bradley was much depressed
at his statement.
Insane About Brown.
He did not consider her insane, ex-
cept on the one subject of Arthur
Brown. She seemed completely uu-
der his influence. Asked if she was
rational, he said: Eyes, and no."
Believed He Would Marry Her.
She never seemed to lose the con-
viction that Brown would marry her.
On all other points she seemed en-
tirely sane.
Had Several Interviews.
The next witness was Judge H. p.
henderson, former law partner of
Brown. He testified that he had sew
eral interviews with Mrs. Bradley, in
one of which he told her to stay away
from his office.
Henderson referred to the relations
between Brown and his wife, declar-
ing that Brown had said to his wife.
in the presence of himself and Mrs.
Bradley, that Mrs. Brown had been a
curse to him and he would not resume
relations with her.
Woman Would Be Blamed.
Judge Henderson testified that Mrs.
Bradley had said to him that she
would be blamed for everything and
Brown will escape, yet she had trust
ed Brown, as the whole people of Utah
had when they gave him the highest
Office they had.
Rational Though Emotional.
On cross-examination, Judge Hen
derson said that in his interviews with
Mrs. Bradley she seemed rational,
though very emotional. He said
Brown was a drinking man, and he
had seen him a few times SO drunk
that he staggered.
Brown Always Angry.
Speaking of Browns temperament,
he said he was a very odd man. and
eccentric to the last degree. He said
he was always angry with someone.
Uncle on the Stand.
The last witness of the morning was
Liman II. Shrewsbury, uncle of Mrs.
Bradley. His testimony showed insan.
ity in Mrs. Bradley's family.

Construction work will commence on
the Denver. Laramie and Northwest
ern railway in the spring, and within
a year thereafter the road will be COM
pleted to Fort Collins, says the Den
yer Post.
That is the announcement made by
c. s. johnson, president of the com
pany, who has returned to Denver from
a trip through Wyoming and the north
ern part of Colorado with a party of
Kansans, who are investing money in
the proposition. The railway is pro
jected from Denver. to Seattle, Wash.
by way of Fort Collins, Laramie and
Lander.
IF money comes in no faster than it
has since the financial furry occurred
in the east we will be able to carry
out our plans n continue construc'
ton work after we have commenced"
said Mr.. Johnson.
kansans Investing Rapidly.
We do not like to say what We are
going to do, preferring to tell what we
have done,' said John D. Millikin,
president of the Northwestern Land
and Iron company, the holding com
pany for the railroad. THE people
from Kansas who have looked over our
plans are making large investments in
stock of the Northwestern Land and
Iron company"
Panic busters is the appellation
given the promoters of the railway by
residents of Fort Collins at a banquet
given in hat town last night. 'They
told us that We might not be boosters,
says Mr.. Milliken, but that it is Ger
tain that we are panic busters"
No Bonds For Sale.
Mr.. Johnson says that the Denver,
Laramie and Northwestern will not sell
any bonds until a part of the road is
in operation. BY this means, If they
build to Fort Collins, the road can be
bonded so that sufficient money will be
raised to build to Laramie or some 9th,
er point in Wyoming.
The officers of the railway will not
say how much money has been sub
scribed, but say that sufficient money
is on hand to commence work as soon
as the weather will permit. If the
weather is favorable work will com
mence next March or April.
Cutting Loose from Wall Street.
The idea of the promoters is to
finance the railroad without the aid of
Wall street. The money used by Wall
street in financing big projects comes
partly from the west and middle west,
and instead Of permitting this money
to 20 to New York it will be used near
home to develop new propositions.
The party of prospective investors
from Kansas came to Denver last Sun
day. Yesterday was spent in Fort Col
Inns, and at a banquet last night Off
GERS of the railroad told the business
men that they would not ask Fort Col
Inns to help the new road until con
siderable work had been done. Ono OF
the speakers said that Fort Collins had

MEETING OF
THE CLUB
LARAMIE LITERARY oRGANIZA-
TON HAS INTERESTING AD-
DRESS FROM II. x. KNIGHT.
Chemist at University Of Wyoming
Discusses Influence Of German Uni
versities Upon American Eduea-
tion-Plan to Secure Funds for
Y. M. C. A. Building.
By w. s. lnaham.

At a well attended meeting last
night of the Laramie Literary club,
Prof. H. G. Knight discussed the sub
iect. 1.-THE Influence of the German
Universities Upon American Educa-
ton" The American university, in
the beginning, said Prof. Knight, was
patterned after the English idea, that
an educated man is one who has been
through a certain number of years OF
school and college work and has nm
ished a certain prescribed amount of
study. This idea, both in America
and in England, is fast giving way to
the German conception, that an edu-
Gated man is enc who Is able to do
Independent work; n who a push
further back the wall of ignorance.
The German universities have always
been turning out a large proportion OF
men who are fitted for research work.
The same ideas have, however, only of
recent years gained ground In Amer
lea,
American Students Advancing.
Already, because of the taking up of
the German idea of university educa-
ton, American university graduates
are fast superseding in great CONNER
cial enterprises the man who gains a
position of responsibility by rule-of-
thumb methods and experience. Some
of the great packing houses, for in
stance, employ as many as sixty re-
search chemists, whose work has COM
pletely revolutionized the business and
made by-products, which were former
ly regarded as Of no value, to be val
liable productions.
The Johns Hopkins university is the
only institution in the United States
which has adopted in its entirety the
German idea. There the students are
all post-graduates, and are all engaged
upon Independent, research work. So
effective has the method been there in
the turning out of efficient men that a
Johns Hopkins man can always obtain
positions when other men have diff
fculty in doing so.
The German idea, at the present
time, Is even influencing under-gradu-
ates, who are thinking for themselves
much more than was the case even a
few years ago.
Some interesting Discussions.
The discussion following Prof.
knights address brought up the effect
of excessive beer drinking among Ger
man students, the Rev. A. Walton ex-
planning the curious customs In that
regard of the German college fraterni-
ties. DR.. Whitehouse mentioned the
fact that at winchester school In Eng
land, where from the time Of the es-
Establishment Of the college in the dis
tant past, a brewery has always beer
owned by It, the boys from IL years OF
aga up are served with a quart of beer
at dinper and supper, and can obtain
more beer between those meals II they
feel inclined for 1t.
