THE WORLD.
WIFE TRIES TO END LIFE
Novellst's Disappearance and Deser-

Nine Children Is Attributed by
Many to His Failing Mentality.

st. Petersburg.-In the old monas-
terry of Koselsk, In the province Of
Kaluga, Count Leo Tolstoi, the social
reformer and novelist, who has re-
nounced the world and who disap-
peared several days ago, was found
Saturday by searching party.
simultaneously with the finding of
the count, his wife, overcome by the
desertion of her husband, is reported
to have twice attempted suicide by
drowning herself through a hole in
the ice. She is in a state of collapse,
and may not recover.
The fight Of the count has made a
painful impression. That he should
desire to spend the evening of his
days in solitude surprises no one &C
quainted with his career, but that he
should deliberately desert the mother
of his nine children is difficult of be-
lief even in the light of his we'll
known eccentricities of character.
The suggestion of falling mental
ity is accepted by many in explana-
ton of the counts sudden action.

WAR ONLY STARTED
COLONEL BREAKS SILENCE
THAT SURROUNDED HIM
SINCE ELECTION.
PROGRESSIvES SURE TO WIN
Colonel Stands Pat on Osawatomie
Speech, and Declares His Cause
VIII Triumph Regardless of Lead
ers' Fortunes.

New York..-Theodore Roosevelt has
broken the silence into which he
plunged himself after the Democratic
landslide. In the current issue of the
Outlook, the colonel, ia less than 100
words, remarks that the fight in which
he engaged in the last election is not
to be dropped. Says the colonel, un-
der the caption, Mr.. Roosevelt's po-
sition":
ION every hand, personally and by
correspondence, 1 have been asked to
make statement regarding the cleo
ton. So far as am concerned, have
nothing whatever to add to or to take
away from the declaration of prin-
ciples which l have made in the Osa,
watomie speech and elsewhere east
and west, during the past three
months.
THE fight for progressive popular
government has merely begun and will
certainly go on to a triumphant con-
clusion in spite of initial checks and
irrespective of the personal success or
failure of individual leaders"
Close acquaintance of Col Roose-
Welt, to whom he has talked, say the
ex-president takes the stand that the
Democratic victory throughout the
country was due primarily to the fail
ure of the administration to keep the
promises it made with respect to the
tariff.
.proodlx, dofnod covs tho O11fIooIy
in editorial comment upon the election,
''the general cause was simply dissat-
isfaction with the Republican party.
This was in part because Of faults
actually committed or thought to have
been committed, and in part from the
vague, restless dissatisfaction which
every party in power encounters mid
way between two presidential elections.
The outcry against the increased cost
of living is universal; it touches a
matter close to the heart. But, spe-
cifically, the high tariff is believed to
be one of the chief causes of the high
cost of living"
Col Roosevelt takes the attitude that
the Democrats benefited by the stir
ring of popular feeling for progressive
legislation, as was evidenced, accord
ing to the ex-president's organ, by the
election of Woodrow Wilson as gov
ernor of New Jersey. Wilson, the col
onel considers to- be equally as much
of progressive as Robert Bass, elect
ed governor of New Hampshire.
Respecting the result in New York
state, Col. Roosevelt feels that the eff
feet is to put Tammany Hall in con-
troll Of Albany.

Male Fashions In 1850.

Male fashions of 60 years ago had
other discomforts besides long hair,
Trousers were tight and buttoned I'M
der the foot with broad straps. Every
man who aspired to be well dressed
wore his coat so high In the collar
that the back of the hat rested on It
The fashion was so prevalent that, &C
cording to Sir Algernon West, every
hat had a crescent OF cloth on the
back of the brim TO prevent the rub
bling of the beaver, or imitation beav-
er, of which the hat was made, for silk
hats were not then invented" And
from the same authority we learn
that opera hats were unknown, and
In the evening folding chapeau bras
was always carried under the arm.
Nobody but an apothecary or a solicit
tor would have dreamed of leaving his
hat in the hall of the house where he
was calling for dinner"
