MRS. BROkAW WINS.
She Is Granted a Divorce and $4,000
Year.

New York, Feb. 3.-Mrs. Mary Blair
Brokaw today was granted separa-
ton from her husband, w Gould
Brokaw, a Millionaire. and was award
ed alimony of $4,000 year. The
decision was handed down in the su-
preme court at Mineola by Justice
Putnam before whom the case was
tried The separation was granted on
the ground OF desertion.
The Brokaw trial was one of the
longest and most sensational in the
history of separation suits in the state
courts.
Mrs. Brokaw asked separation
and $4,000 month alimony. she
charged cruelty and abandonment ana
for days occupied the witness stand
telling in detail how, as she alleged,
she had been spied upon by servants
at Mr. Brokaw's direction while she
was staying in the Brokaw residence
at Great Neck, L. l., and Mr.. Brokaw
was at his hunting lodge at High
Point, n. c.
Her husband had neglected her and
sighted her, she claimed, and finally
abandoned her. She attributed his
conduct to unreasonable and unJustl-
fable jealousy and bad temper.
On cross examination Mr.. Brokaw's
counsel tried to show that her hus-
bands jealousy was justified. She was
asked about a house party and other
social happenings at Great Neck and
I
were produced demanding to know II
such and such man had been enter
tanned with Mrs. Brokaw's woman
friends on these occasions. Mrs.
Brokaw persistently denied that she
had ever carried on fiirtations or in
any way given her husband cause for
jealousy.
The kilograms and letters from
Brokaw to his wife and from Brokaw
| to the Great Neck employees read into
the evidence, en1ivened the trial ap-
probably. In one letter to his wife,
| Brokaw said:
"Ycu promised to see no man While
| I am away You know what told
you about kissing the doctor. If he
attempts to kiss you tell him that you
do not kiss any one but your husband.
| 1 will know if you do and il you KISS
any one I will not want to kiss you
again."
| Mr.. Brokaws ordeal in the witness
| chair. also was a long one. He de-
MED that he frequently drank to ex-
| cess in the first year of their married
| life: laid upon Mrs. Brokaw the brunt
of the blame for the many dissensions
| in the family and refuted charges
| that his conduct had forced his wife
| to lock herself in her room and that
| he had forcibly entered her apart
ments against her will to resume
| quarrels with her.
Mr.. Brokaw submitted statement
that he was worth only about $780,

100000 a year alimony would be ex-

THROUGH A BUTTON.
That Is How Mrs. Waldron Breathed
for q Week.

Alton, Feb. 3.-Mrs. Sara Waldron
of Seventh and Belle streets. Alton,
is breathing like other persons again,
after having been compelled for al
most a week to breathe through the
threadholes of a button that was lodg-
ed in her windpipe.
Mrs. Waldron was preparing to sew
a button on the pants of her 5-year-
old son, Leonard. She placed the but
ton in her mouth while she threaded
her needle. Just then a neighbour wo-
man came in and said something fun
ly. Mrs. Waldron laughed and the
button slipped down and lodged at
the entrance to the windpipe. The
obstruction threw her into a violent
fit of coughing, but her involuntary
efforts did not dislodge the button.
Mrs. Waldron was taken to clinic
at Washington University, st. Louis.
and the exact location of the button
was ascertained by means of the x
ray The button was then removed
with instruments.

TO ADJUST WAGE SCALE
Miners and Operators Start With a
20 Cents Difference.

Toledo, o., Feb. 3.-With an initial
difference between them amounting
to 20 cents a ton the operators and
miners of the district comprising
Ohio, Indiana and Western Pennsyl-
vania met here today in a postponed
joint conference to adjust a wage scale
for a new contract beginning April 1.
The miners in their convention at
Indianapolis, made a demand for
wage increase from 80 cents to 81
ton.
While they have not formulated
their demand it has been generally
understood that the operators want
decrease of 10 cents ton.
With the understanding that any
agreement here will be a basis of set
tlement in all other bituminous dis
tricts and the declaration of the min
ers that if the conference disagrees a
general strike may result, the confer
ence assumes widespread Importance.
AS the prime issue, the operators,
those of Ohio leading, are expected to
force to some conclusion the IL year
old project of organizing the nom
union field of West Virginia as a
preliminary to increasing or maintain
ing present wages.
They say they can not continue to
compete with the West Virginia op-
orators and that the non-union fields
of Kentucky and West Virginia are
also becoming a. strong factor in this
competition.
Individual operators have said they
can not agree to the miners demands
that coal shall be weighed before be-
ing screened and paid for on that
basis
Illinois miners will accompany the
delegates here from Indianapolis, but
the operators say they can not treat
with them in the absence of the IL
linois operators.

UNDER dick" SHAW.
Senate Pie Once More Takes High
Place With Senators.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Since the new
regime in the senate restaurant, I'M
der the superintendency of Dick"
Shaw, for a third of a century an at
tache of the refectory, the famous
senate pie has once more taken the
high place which it occupied of yore.
For several sessions prior to this there
has been much complaint among SEN
ators of the quality of pie served to
them. Inasmuch as the senatorial
appetite yearns for pie, it was a
grave thing to set before the states
men productions in the pastry line
with UNDERGONE bottom crusts and
with a general air of sogginess. Ev-
erybody recalls the crisis in our ma
tons history when the best pie cook
in all these parts was allowed to quit
the senate restaurant because he was
not paid enough money and how the
restaurant manager had to get him
back in order to keep the senate
peace.

by reason of financial inability to sur
round themselves with even a fighting
chance for recovery.
what then, may the state do in
an effort to save at least portion of
these people for future citizenship? ?
Four things are suggested:
First. Legislation that will rem
edy the evils of our social and indus
trial conditions: such as child labor
laws, the protection of workmen in
factories and other industries and the
sanitary and medical inspection of
schools.
Second. The establishment of san
itoria, or day camps. by municipalities
of the first class for the care and
treatment of their poor.
Third. The establishment of two
state institutions-one for the care of
the advanced cases and the other for
the treatment and cure of incipient
cases.
Fourth. Which is of the greatest
Importance, after ALL and absolutely
control, namely, a statewide educa-
tional propaganda for the study and
prevention of tuberculosis, and COM
pulsory notification law. by which all
cases of tuberculosis may be reported
to the state department of health.
''It is to this fourth proposition that
desire to especially direct your at
tention. First of all, we need to dis
abuse the minds of your people that
consumption is hereditary; that 1t is
caused by a germ which finds its way
into the system and because of lack of
bodily resistance finds lodgment and
multiplies in numbers and thus pro-
duces the disease. They need to know
that the spit of consumptive is the
principal medium of infection; and if
fc NIT there iS n

if the spit is carefully collected in a
sputum cup or napkin and burned,
that the infectious material Will not
spread and affect other members of
the family and community. They need
to be taught that the second and third
cases occurring in a family is not
due to heredity. but is simply case OF
the sick injecting the well, through
the medium of using the same drink
ing cup or sleeping in the same room
or bed with the afflicted person, or the
infection of food or drink by the fly
or through the lack of proper ventila-

REASON IS APPARENT.
Packers Say Mexico Failure Will Not
Be Felt In United States.

Chicago, Feb 81. ogden Armour
and others, prominent in Chicago's
packing industry. stated last night that
the failure of the National Packing
company of Mexico would not be felt
by the trade in the United States. De-
spite the similarity in names. the Ma
tional Packing company of Mexico has
no connection with the National Pack
ing company of Chicago.
THE Mexican concern has no inter-
ests or connections here that ever
heard of, and do not see how its fall
tire could affect the industry in the
United States,'- said Mr.. Armour.
No Chicago firm could be found that
has a financial interest in the concern.
