LOST RING IN BREAD.
Its Finding Cleared the Matrimonial
 Sky of Its First Cloud.


 Philadelphia, Nov 26.-Mr and Mrs Charles Brean kissed and made it all up yesterday after their first quarrel. The other day whe1. MT Brean came ho1ne from his office he was surprised to notice that his wife's diamond engagement ring was missing.
 She could not tell what had be- come of it. She insisted that she had not been out of the house all day, and that she supposed it was on Ter finger. They searched every where, but it could not be found.
 Then MT Brean became suspicious. He hinted that his wife had pawned it, or, perhaps, had given it away. The more she tried to explain the disappearance the worse matters looked. They had just about de. cided to agree to disagree, and were eating their dinner insilence yester- day.
 "Where'd you get this bread?" asked MT Brean, sullenly.
 Baked it," replied his wife, curt ly.
 Tastes like began Brean. and then he yelled. He had bit on some thing hard. lie took it from his mouth, and there glistened his wife's engagement ring She had lost it in the dough while making her first bread.

Separated After Marriage.

Adolf Munder, now of St Louis, Mo, was married to Minna Boehm in New Britain on August 31, 1907. Less than ten minutes after the cere- mony he told her that he was sorry he married her. He told her that he had another wife living. He told her to go home and he said that he would go his way. The woman went to her home and Munder left New Britain within a half hour after the marriage ceremony. The New Britain woman has brought an action to the superior court asking that her pretended mar riage to Munder be declared void and that she be authorized to resume the name of Boehm, which she had before the pretended marriage.

THE BRADLEY CASE
Battle of the Alienjsis is On in Full Blast Just at Present
 Large Attendance.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The battle of the alienists in the trial of Annie M. Bradley, charged with murdering former United States Senator Arthur Brown in this city, December 8, last, was we'll launched to-day when the defense placed on the stand Dr Britt ton D. Evans, of the New Jersey Hos- pital for the Insane, to corroborate the statements made yesterday by Dr Barton of this city, that Mrs Bradley was insane when she shot Brown. The district attorney will be aided in his questions by Drs Smith Ely Jeliffe of New York, and Edward s. Brush of Baltimore. The standing of Dr Evans as an expert, and the fact that he tes- tified in favor of Harry K. Thaw, was sufficient reason for attracting to the court house more than the usual crowd, who began to assemble long before the doors to the court room were opened. Drs Jeliffe and Brush have prepared copious notes of the testimony and were prepared to-day through District Attorney Baker to subject the alienists for the defense to a severe test
 Mrs Bradley appeared to be in bet- ter spirits than yesterday. It was decided not to call Dr Evans as the first witness and Dr Isaac Rich of New York was placed on the stand to testify in Mrs Bradley's behalf.
 Dr Rich testified that he was in Washington the day of the tragedy and stopped at the hotel where the shooting occurred. He saw Mrs Brad- ley that day and first observed her in the ladies sitting room. He said:
 She looked like an intelligent wo- man but said nothing to me. She bumped into first one person and then another. She had peculiar drawn face, talked to herself, muttering and wringing her hands. All of a sud- den she began laughing. It was an idiotic laugh. I looked at her and she stopped laughing and appeared to cry and she went away"
 On cross-eXamination witness said Mrs Bradley appeared to him later to be "looney," and that she had an idiotic laugh.
 Dr Charles G. Hill of Baltimore, an expert, was then called.
 Dr Hill positively stated that o n the day of the shooting of Senator Brown Mrs Bradley was insal. and incapable of choosing between right and wrong.
 On cross-eXamination Dr Hill said that in his opinion Mrs Bradley in- tentionally shot Senator Brown but her state of mind was such that in her alteration she believed she was doing the right thing as distinguished from the wrong.
 Dr Hill said he saw in Mrs Brad- ley's letters to Senator Brown many evidences of insanity, although the rhetoric and handwriting were good. Insane people, he said, frequently worte well.

VISITS FIRE HOUSE.
Chief Snagg on Tour of Inspection To-day.

Chief Snagg paid visit to the new engine house on Baldwin street to- day and looked over the ground. He appeared pretty well satisfied with the character of work and progress being made on the building, but like everybody else who has given it much attention the chief is not an enthusi- astic admirer of the huge metal cor nice that surrounds the structure, completely obstructing the handsome roof from view except to tourists who ascend Pine hill and other high places in the neighborhood. But 1t is not finished yet and probably when everything is completed very few If anybody at all will find fault with the trimmings. The roof is now nearly covered in and when this is done work on the interior can ue car ried on without interruption so that it is quite likely that the house will be in commission in April or May.

TOLD IN A DREAM
Horrible Murder Disclosed at Oakland - Engineer Has 4
 Been Arrested.

San Francisco, Nov 26.-The police of Oakland yesterday unearthed |, most diabolical crime and have taken into custody M. A. Wilkins, a station ary engineer and will charge him with the murder of his wife, whose body was found buried in quicklime under meath shed in the yard of the Will kins house ill Elmhurst suburb of Oakland.
 It was known that Mrs Wilkins had given birth to a child and ,Wilklus stated that she had gone to the home of her parents in the east.
 A friend of the dead woman, Mrs J. NJ. Anderson of San Francisco had been staying at the Wilkins home the past few days and now asserts that Wilkins had endeavored to induce her to leave her husband and go away with him. Her suspicious became aroused, and Monday night, ill a dream, she saw the body of her form CT friend lying on the ground, with the arms crossed over the breast. She returned to San Francisco and in formed her husband and the two told the story to the Oakland police. The result was the finding of the body in a trench under an old carpet in the shed, lying as described by Mrs An derson. Wilkins at first said his wife had committed suicide. Later he asserted she had died during child birth and that he had buried the body to save expenses. At last he refused to talk further.
 Mrs Anderson says that she was awakened from her singular dream by Wilkins, who was standing over her with a knife in his hand. When she asked what he meant, he replied that she had been talking wildly in her sleep. He put the knife away and asked her to take a drink of water. She slipped some of the water, but did not swallow it, suspecting that it had been poisoned. This proved to be the fact.
 Wilkins is 30 years of age. He came here with his wife from York, Pa.
