was known throughout the province
Of Campania for her beauty.
She sailed from Naples as the hap

Angelina Napolitano knew neither
peace nor happiness. Pietro had on.

support his wife and four children.
Angelina, good wife that she was,
tried to help him by keeping board
ers. She boarded several Italian
men from the pup mills and the steel
works; she cooked for them and she
did their washing.
But Pietro was not satisfied. He
complained Of poverty, he wanted a
better house to live in. He didn't
want to work SO hard. He told his
young wife OF the ways In which
some other Italian men In New York
became rich. But she was Mortified
at what he said and begged for the
sake OF their children that he never
speak to her Of IL again.
But Pietro was persistent. When his
commands were not obeyed, he
threatened to kill his wife unless she
dishonor herself to make him rich. Il
was these threats that led to tho muir.

the dear old mother In Caserta.
She told no one what she wrote,
but when the matron came TO take
the letter the unhappy woman sob
bed. II had to tell her need her
prayers; her prayers will help me
more than all the rest"

HISTORY AND POWER.

The idea that Woodrow Wilson is a
new man in political thought dies
hard with the general public. The
majority does not yet know that he
studied, practised, and taught law, and
taught history, political economy, and
politics, before he became president
OF great university. where his first
contest was to establish a quadrangle
system aimed against snobbish social
distinctions among the students. Some
OF his political studies, such as "Con-
gressional government The state
and The elements OF histocial and
practical politics." date back over
twenty years. He is fifty.four and a
half years old. and his success as gov.
ernor OF New Jersey was made pos
sible by the thought he had given to
political questions for over thirty
years. Fortunately, he has the ability
to change his mind and frankly admit
1t. He has already done SO about the
recall, for example, Editorial in Col
