H. Merrill OF this city. president OF the
New York State Mothers Assembly.
is in receipt of a letter from President
Roosevelt in which he defines the place
OF the father and mother in the home.
The letter was in response to one
asking questions propounded by the
council of mothers recently held at
Newburgh. The President says:
For of our topics how would II do TO

father and unless he is successful breadwin-

ADDS To ME- EMO|RS
Of H0HEN[OHE

ROME, Feb. 10.-Primo Levi, who
was secretary to the late Premier Girls
pi, adds to the memoirs of the late
Prince Hohenlohe by publishing letters
written by Cardinal Hohenlohe a
brother of the Chancellor, who lived in
Rome. From these letters X is claimed
it appears that Cardinal Hohenlohe sus-
pected that Jesuits had tried to poison
him because he was too liberal in en-
deavoring, through his influence among
statesmen, chief among them Crispi, to
bring about an understanding with the
Vatican and Quirinal. Cardinal Hohen-
lohe, on June 3, 1889, wrote Pope Leo
saying:
God has arranged things so that the
church cannot retake the temporal
power. The salvation of souls demands
that we submit and remain tranquil in
the ecclesiastical sphere"
The Popes departure from Italy was
spoken of owing TO friction over the
monument to Giordano Bruno, the phil
osopher who was burned at the stake
in the Campol del Firo at Rome as a
heretic Cardinal Hohenlohe wrote to
Pope Leo:
"Crispi has asked me to inform you
that if you wish to leave he will not op-
pose ii. and will have you accompanied
with all honors bat that your Holiness
will never be allowed to return to
Rome"
Cardinal Hohenlohe also discussed
with Crispi and Foreign Minister
Blanc the best way. in case of a con-
claye. to prevent the election of Cardi-
nal Rampolla as Pope. 1t was claimed
that Italy could not act without ap-
pearing 70 minimize the spiritual SOW
ereignty of the church; neither could
Germany. because il was a Protestant
power, and Austria alone was in a po-
sition to act. Blanc drew UP memoir
which Cardinal Hohenlohe sent to his
brother, who then was the German
Chancellor. and this memorial probably
was the origin of the Austrian veto of
Cardinal Rampolla at the last conclave.

PURE WINE BILL
To Be AMENDED

SANDUSKY, O., Feb. 1o.-william
Homer Reinhart, secretary of the Ma
tionaI Wine Growers Association, to-
night announced that an agreement had
been reached with the American Wine
Growers Association whereby certain
features of the Fasset pure wine bill
will be eliminated and all obstacles in
the way of the passage of the measure
will be removed.
The National Wine Growers Associa-
tion had been fighting the Fasset bill
for more than a year past on the al
legged ground that if made law il
would discriminate against many OF the
wineries of the Middle West to such
an extent as to put some classes of
them out of business. The Fasset bill
has had the endorsement of the Cali
fornia growers. By the compromise
which Reinhart says has been reached
all the wine growing interests, il is
claimed, will be satisfied.

VATICAN ACCEPTS
FRENCH ADDRESS

PARIS, Feb. 10.-The Temps prints
what is declared to be the true history
of the address of the French episco-
pate proposing model contracts for
churches. According to this account,
which bears internal evidence of being
authentic, the ultramonaines, who are
in the majority in the episcopate, favor
the maintenance of the status quo, but
agreed to submit to the Vatican tho
question Of contracts which the mod
crates proposed in the belief that II
would not be acceptable there.
Monsignor Dadolle, Archbishop of
Dijon, and Bishop Touchet took the
minutes to Rome and Cardinal Merry
del Val, Papal Secretary of State, told
them the Pope was willing to accept
the principle of the contracts II abso-
lutte solidarity were shown, but this
decision must come ostensibly from
the episcopste. as he could not publicly
intervene. Thereupon, the Temps says,
the address was drawn UP and sub
mitted to the Pope, who with his own
hand supplemented the clause specify
ing that the contract must be accepted
everywhere "or we do not wish 1t any,
where" The document. the paper says.
was, then brought to Paris and issued
in the name of the entire episcopate,

ENDS LIFE WHILE
DESPONDENT

PETALUNA, Feb. 10.-Mrs. Hattie
Hall Weston. eldest daughter of Mr..

suicide at her parents residence this
morning.
Mrs. Weston was one of the most
popular women here and her bright.
CHEEKY nature made her favorite with
all who knew her. She arose early this
morning and after preparing breakfast
attended to other household duties
A few hours later she went into the
bathroom, turned on the gas and then
shot herself in the temple. Death was
instantaneous.
About fifteen years ago Mrs Weston
married Harry McC. Weston. They
later agreed to separate and she re-
turned to the home of her parents.
She had never hinted suicide to her
family, but lately she told her friends
that there was nothing in life and that
she would some time end It,
