MRS. BRADLEY'S TALE
Tells Jury of Browns Pledges to
 Make Her His Wife.
HOW HE FINALLY JILTED HER
Defendant a Picture of Distress While Detailing Her Grief and Shame and How She Yielded to Senator's Pro- testations of Love.

Washington, Nov. 20. - With hun dreds of eyes leveled at her and the son of the man she killed gazing steadily into her face Mrs. Annie M. Bradley took the witness stand in her own defense in her trial for the mur' der of ex-SenatOr Arthur Brown of Utah in the Raleigh hotel last Decem- Der.
 The woman was the picture of dis tress as she detailed the incidents of her life with Brown, and frequently when q question was asked that laid bare many of the most intimate occur rences Of those years she would shake her head in absolute grief, wiring her hands and say, "Oh, I cannot, 1 can not.' But always the question would be repeated, and she would answer. When Browns name was first men, toned she broke down completely.
 He controlled me absolutely" said Mrs. Bradley. He was a brilliant man, big man. He was extravagant-

he would do the right thing by me be- cause he knew he would have been convicted if I had testified against him."
 She related how Brown had told her that he was compelled to effect a rec onciliation with his wife, but that il had not been made by him in good faith.
 "'It would be living death to me dear the senator said to me-" Mrs Bradley said in describing this incl dent "Just wait one year and will get everything strengthened out and will fulfill all my pledges to you.'"
 She said these expressions gave her hope and would buoy her up until another break occurred. "Sad Bitterest Things"
 Mrs. Bradley identified slip of pa per on which an acknowledgement that he was the father of her two boys had been written by Brown. He sent this in February, 1905. When asked about her condition before the birth of the latest child Mrs. Bradley said:
 'I was very much distressed all the time. The senator would do the most awful and unreasonable things. Some times everything would go along love- ly, and he would seem contented, and then perhaps before he had reached home he would call me up and say the bitterest, bitterest things"
 Mrs. Bradley said that they had planned all details of their wedding, which was to have taken place June 2, 1906, but that in May, Brown told her that he did not intend to marry her.
 "What did you do?" she was asked.
 q do not know" said Mrs. Bradley. "I just cried and cried. I hoped some times that I would die, and I felt at other times that I would like to kill myself" She said that she returned to Ogden from Salt Lake City, where this conversation occurred, and Brown call ed her up on the telephone and said he was sorry he had said what he did He said that his children would not speak to him if he married her, but that after his return from a promised trip east he would talk to them about it. Mrs. Bradley said that Brown wis., ited her almost every night in June, 1906, in Ogden.
 He Seemed Miserable Too.
 "He would come down on the even- ing train,' she said, "and go back ill the morning. We would walk out at night. The evenings he did iot come he would telephone me. Later we had other conversations about marriage, and once he said, oh, Dollie, I cannot, I cannot do that" meaning that he could not marry me. I broke down and begged him. I asked him what l should do; how I could ever face our children when they grew up; what l could say to them. He laid down on the couch and sobbed and said, My life is so hard I do not know what to do.'"
 Mrs. Bradley told how, even after that, Brown had planned for both of them to go to Goldfield to begin life all over again. This was in October 1906. About the middle of that month Mrs Bradley realized that she was in delicate condition, and when she told Brown he said: That Is all right We'll attend to that" She said that Brown came to Washington the latter part of October, returning about Nov. 12, and told her that they might go to Goldfield at any moment.
 "I believed him to be sincere" said Mrs. Bradley, flor I loved him still. He said he felt that he wanted me near him all his life"
 Mrs. Bradley will again take tho witness stand.

Said He'd Get a Divorce.

In 1902, Mrs. Bradley said, Brown declared in the presence of Mrs. Brown that he would get a divorce from his wife and marry Mrs. Bradley. This statement was dictated by Brown to his stenographer in the presence of Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Bradley and Colonel Tatlock, whom Mrs. Brown brought to her husbands office that he might be a witness to 1t.
 Mrs. Bradley told how she and Brown were arrested in 1902 in Salt Lake City on account of their relations and how the year following they were again ar rested for the same offense. Before the trial was called Mrs. Bradley said an aunt of hers came to see her at Browns farm, near Salt Lake, and begged her to leave him and live with her. Mrs. Bradley continued:
 "The senator put his arms around me and said: Would you desert me? Haven't sacrificed everything for you? Haven't I shown you in every way that I love you better than any body in the world?'"
 Mrs. Bradley said she yielded to his pleadings and did not leave him. She said Brown gave her a revolver in 1903 with instructions to protect herself against Mrs. Brown. When Judge Powers showed Mrs. Bradley the red handbag taken from her the day of the shooting she turned from 1t in horror and was only able to nod her head af- when asked if that was the one in which she sometimes carried the pistol. She buried her face in her hands and wept convuIsively as the bag was replaced on the counsel table.

Sermons Boiled Down

He is lifted in blessing who lifts another's burden.
 Only fool takes experience for a road instead of a guide.
 The surest way to improverish the heart is to set it on riches.
 The striking sermon is the one that hits the other sinner hard.
 Few things choke sympathy quicker than cherished sorrows.
 Only those who are not afraid of being poor really become rich.
 All the treasure-houses of truth open to the master key of sincerity.
 People who have sympathy for humanity are not signing for heav- en. The man with a hot head evens up on temperature at the oth- CT end.
 You never will make much head way going at thnigs with the head alone.
 The Lord not only loves a cheer full giver; He loves giver of good cheer.
 This world becomes beautiful as we tackle its unpleasant prob lem.
 It may be better to make time than to stand still. but it is a great sin to do either when battle or work awaits us. s.--Chicago Tribune.
