BLAMES HOSPITAL
FOR DEATH Of
HUSBAND
JOHN LAUDER JUMPED FROM
WINDOW, WHILE UNGUARDED,
SAYS WIFE, WHO BRINGS SUIT
FOR s25, 1000 DAMAGES.

Alleging that her husband was pelt-
pended from the second-story window
OF the Detroit Sanitarium. and that
he fell to his death, Mrs. Elizabeth
LAUDER commenced suit against the
hospital authorities in Judge Man
dell's court Thursday morning, claim
ing $4,000 damages.
John LAUDER. foreman for the
Michigan Telephone Co., was taken to
the sanitarium In January, 1907, seri-
ously i'll and delirious. II Is alleged
that while left unguarded he arose
from his bed. locked himself In his
room, and then climbed out OF the
window. The plaintiff claims he was
seen by the Attendants. who. after he
was out OF the window. and almost
naked, threw snowballs at him. AS a
result Of the exposure and fall death
soon followed. Mrs. LAUDER charges
the hospital with negligence In leav'
ing the key where her husband
could reach 1t. and in not watching
him more carefully.
The defense will claim that LAUDER
was guarded, and that he threw the
orderly out OF the room before he
locked the door. They also deny that
he was snowballed, but claim that be
fore he got out OF the window some
loose snow was thrown at him to keep
him back until the door OF his room
could be forced.

MEET FOR FIRST
time IN 45 YEARS
CIVIL WAR FRIENDS BROUGHT
TOGETHER IN G. A. r.
CONVENTION.

One Of the happiest meetings be-
tween old comrades in the gathering
OF civil war veterans In Detroit is
that which took place in the Hotel
Normandie, when for the first time in
As years, Marshal b. Adams. OF No.
10 Mackie-st.. Delray, stood face TO
face with William j. Hardwig. of
Lapeer.
The two men, who were members OF
Co. |. first Michigan engineers and
mechanics. slept in the same tent and
marched side by side for three years.
After being mustered out they lost
trace OF each other. and 1t was only
when Adams saw the name Of his old
comrade on the register, that he
learned of his presence in the city.
After a few inquiries the men were
brought together.
Don't you know me? Don't you
know me?" Adams said when he saw
his friend.
Sure I know you. You are old
Marsh Adams"
And you are Bill Hardwig. I'd
know you by that chew Of tobacco in
your mouth" and then the white-hair-
ed old veterans grabbed each others
hands. and held them tightly clasped
for almost five minutes. while the
tears streamed down each others
faces.
Then the old friends got away by
themselves. and for hours talked Of
the old days. Of the fun, their hard
ships. their dangers. their long
marches through the mud. and OF the
battles they witnessed.

CHICAGO. October 3I.-What do YOU
suppose is threatening 70 handicap busi-
ness now? \ restricted currency? No
The scarcity of freight carsc Not even
warm in that answer The smoke nui-
sance? Somewhat. but the real menace Is
nothing other than a sudden ascent In the
matrimonial market.
The alarm has arisen with Swift ~

women stenographers. but promises 10
spread uncontroiiably. other firms may
feel II al an early date
Over 100 Marriages Among Women.
Within one year there have been more
than 100 marriages among the women
employees in Swift & Co.'S Offices In Ger.
tain departments it is almost impossible
to keep a woman stenographer.
The traffic division seems particularly
affected by the movement. and II now APP
pears that IL F. Frederick, the head Of
this division, Is to carry on any consecu-
tive work he will be obliged to hire a man
to conduct his correspondence Three OF
his women stenographers have married
one right after another. The last TO go
was Mrs. j. Parke Colburn, who was
Miss Adelaide Moran. i.
that the women are affected to a great.
er extent than the men employees.
Through all of the agitation in his office
Mr.. Frederick himself maintained his
bacherlorhood.
Marry Men Outside Of the Firm.
What most .disturbs the concern IS
that many Of the girls marry men OUT
side Of the firm, and statistical informa-
tion on the subject shows that no girl
after marrying from Swift e. Co.'S ever
has continued in business. And 1t Is a
further recorded point that, however,
many the marriages, the first divorce
has yet to be set down.
Various explanations have been offered
for the perceptible rise in marriage sta
tistics at Swift's One Is the rule made
by the firm not long ago governing the
presentat of wedding presents. Every
girl who remains with the firm for six
months before violently severing her con-
nection by marriage receives a wedding
present Of SIS in cash.
