Paris, June 13.-It has just been
learned that a marriage contract be-
tween Nine. Anna Gould and Prince
Helie de Sagan was issued yesterday.
The contract establishes the separa-
ton of the property of the parties,
neither to have control of the others

While the contract is mere formal
ity under the French law. it is the
custom for the wedding to follow
within two weeks of the contract,
which would make the marriage come
before the end of the month.
May be Married in England.
On the highest authority it is learn
ed that the wedding will not take
place in France. Nine Gould wishes
the wedding to be solemnized outside
of France to escape undue notoriety.
In France the date of the wedding
must be posted in advance. and to es-
cape this the parties will probably go
to England.
Although the Prince is a Catholic,
it is said the marriage will take place
in Protestant church. as the Pope
has not acknowledged the divorce of
Nine. Gould from Count Boni de Cas-
tellane.
Rich Reversion for Prince.
While the property of each is kept
separate under the contract, the
Prince will have a rich reversion in
the estate of his wife provided he out
lives her. The registration dues arts
ing from the contract amount TO be.
tween $4,000 and $4,000.

Howard will go to Louisville, join
his family and become an evangelist in

Governor Wilson affixed his sigma
ture to the pardons only after an ex-
haustive study of the case and re-
view of the testimony. Both men
were overcome with emotion and could
scarcely talk. Powers said:
Il am glad to have my freedom, but
would rather have had an acquittal by
the courts. / am not guilty and I
hoped that would be vindicated"
1t is said that Powers will be re-
arrested as soon as he is released on
charges of subornation of perjury, but
this is not expected.

went through Lexington on their way
to Frankfort They were heavily
armed and will accompany Howard TO
the mountains in safety as it is feared
an attempt will be made to assassinate
him.

MADISON Wis, Sept. 29.-[Spe-

campus today were the mandates of the
upper classmen requiring the freshmen
to deck their heads with green caps
with cardinal buttons. The caps have
been placed on sale at one of the stores
and it is expected that every freshman
will purchase one and wear it until the
first of May, the penalty attached to the
order being ''ducking" in Lake Men

thing of this nature has been attempted
at the university and whether or not the
''freshies'' will obey or resist the order
is being watched with interest.
Hazing has been begun in small way
but as yet there have been no large
hazing parties and the freshmen have
been comparatively unmolested. There
was talk of a big "ducking" party last
night, but owing to the GOODNESS of the
weather it was dropped. The class rush,
held annually between the two lower
classes of the university. will be held
this year out near the agricultural school
