INTERESTING PERSONALITY OF WOMAN ESCAPE FROM ASYLUM By Adroit Conversation Neat Cultured Little Takes Detectives Almost Off Their
 

New York, August 2o.-{Special.) .)-Mrs. Adele Spiegel, wife of Adolph Spiegel, millionaire proprietor of a chain of drug stores in Milwaukee and Chicago, was taken from her apartments in the Martha Washington hotel by detectives this after noon and transferred to the psycopathic ward of Bellevue hospital for observa- tion as 10 her sanity Although the pc lice had been warned In telegrams from Milwaukee that Mrs. Spegel did not show insanity on first meeting, they were nevertheless amazed at the remarkable personality of the little woman who at the West Thrtieth station. discussed Ter case and told of her escape from an in sane asylum in Milwaukee.
 Neatly and tastefully dressed the deli cate full contour. Of her face almost bely- ing the 45 years which she admitted, she revealed in her conversation not only re- fnement and culture but keen intell.- eence and an adrotness of argument that almost took her questioners off their feet. She admitted that she had some years ago suffered from mental disorder and that she had twice gone of her own ac- COI0 reason for fleeing from the institution last Wednesday was that she heard her hus- band was to arrange for her formal con- mitment
 Early today Inspector Hughes received three 'telegrams from Chief of Police Jensen of Milwaukee, urging that a thor ough search be made for Mrs. Spiegel, and that she be apprehended and held no matter what her appearance of sanity. The telegrams told the New York police to, spare nos expense in locating her.
 Not more than two hours after Detec- tiyes Hughes and Kinney had been out on the case they had located Mrs. Spiegel, registered under her right name at the Hotel Martha Washington. But they had to wait until afternoon for her return from a shopping tour. After they had politely explained their errand she made no objection to accompanying them to the station, where she was questioned by Lieutenant Thurston.
 My trouble began some years ago. she said, beginning her narrative calmly. "I seemed to develop a sort of cycle of moods would have a period of melan- choia, followed by a period of exaltation Then l would have a normal period and the cycle would recur.
 "One of the conditions that marked the periods of exaltation might be called a buying mania l purchased good many things and my husband had trouble in re- turning some of them.

CULINARY FRANCE P[EASES MIR. EDISON
But He Fails to Find Bar gains in Triumphal
 Arches

Paris, August -(Special) )-Thomas A. Edison had much to say concerning the made upon him by France and her people in an interview. He talked of many things from the way the French cook bread to the aeroplane as an engine of war, and his observations, some of which follow, are interesting
 What Americans waste in food would feed the French nation, he said. I've have much to learn of the science of food preparation and this economic phase of the food question is what strikes me most forcibly here. The French have not only studied out scientifically what is best to eat, but serious schools ong ago es- tablishedd, have made research and by evolution have arrived at perfection of preparation at minimum of cost.
 cooking" he continued, lis no hap hazard matter in France, as in America, but 1t is a science and an art with tra- ditions so well established that they caiI- not be broken.
 we want to be refined in our eating and there Is where the French show cora mon sense. We never tasted bread sueh as you find universally here. Everything served to you, even in the smallest vii- lages, shows magic of the culinary art which has only attained by generations and generations of scientific chefs who do not look upon their vocations as drudgery, but as privilege and an art. The beef steak that is so tough that you cannot stick a fork into the gravy doesn't exist here, or if it does they know how to dis guise it. There is an added joy to living when you have the privilege of sustaining yourself on French cooking.
 Changing the topic, MT Edison said
 "As 1 look at the historical monuments l fail to find any bargains among them. The arch of triumph doesn't impress me, for always see beside it another and greater arch, thousands of feet high. made of phosphate of the bones of victims sac rificed for Napoleon's personal glory. Conquest costs; it never pays, for Alsace and Lorraine the Germans have pad more than 5000 an acre and they thought they had gained it free. And their little march around the arch of triumph was in the end the costliest promenade ever made
 But this well assumed war lord ayoca- tion has come to an end. The German spasmodic twitchings are but the death throes of conquest business. Thre are too many newspapers and schools in present-day civilization to a1- low the antiquated methods of over ann bilious men hiding their selfish aims be- hind a loud cry for the glory of their coun- try to force ruin on the people.

RUFFIAN TURKS
 REVILE PRIESTS

Rome Italy, August 2o- Special. l. There is much indignation in Catholic Rome because of the insults to which priests are subjected by anti-clericals. Tn many cases friars, monks and clergymen have been followed by ruffians who have not dessted from their insults until ar rested. Priests have been slapped in the face and compelled either to fight in self defense or to seek refug in shops and houses.
 The apostolic vicar of Macedonia, Bull garian. was walking in Borghese park yesterday in his robes of eastern style when he and his secretary were surround ed by a hundred ruffians who hissed, mocked and insulted them. The secretary tried to persuade the mob to leave the bishop in peace. Failing they hailed an automobile and fled from their persecu- tors.
 Speaking to some newspaper corre- spondents, the bishop said that he had lived 20 years among the Turks and that he had never been treated as rudey and villainously as here. ieAf. sttlt if 4ll

MUCH INTEREST IN SECOND PRIMARIES Vardamanism Still the Issue in Mississippi-Pe0n-

Jackson. Miss, August 2O.-(special)- Though only one state office is to be filled at the second primary election Tuesday August 22 that of railroad commissioner for the northern district, the race being Ictween W. R. Scott of Eupora, present incumbent, and w. B. Wilson of Corinth, a great deal of interest is being mani fested because of the local races for county offices. In some instance, how-i ever, district offices are to be filled.
 In -Hinds-county, for instance, an- ctller member of the legislature is to be chosen, as is also the sheriff. justices of the peace, constables, etc, and the dis trict attorney. The Vardaman and anti Vardamal lines are being drawn in all cases, but not so strong, perhaps, as in the first primary three weeks ago.
 State senators are to be chosen in half q dozen counties and representatives in score or more, and in nearly every in- stance 1t is understood that the only is- sue is Nardamansm.
 A sufficient number of legislators were chosen in the first primary to guarantee that the Vardamanites have an over- whelming majority.
 Hinds and Yazoo counties played lit- tie more politics today, and it is supposed that the anti Vardamanites won out A week after the primary election a so- called flotorial committee met here and declared that there had ben no election of floater representative for these two counties, though H. J. Ellzey had boiled nearly 31c more votes than w. E. Mall lett in tho two counties.
 However, Mallett's name was not on the Yazoo county ticket.
 The committee, therefore, ordered Mal- lett and Ellzey to run over at the second primary, and that would perhaps have been done but for the fact that it has since developed the real fiotorial commit lee has never met. Such committee was in existence, and discovery of that fact was made but a few days since. That committee is in session today at Yazoo City for the purpose of counting the vote cast for f1oater August 1, and it being understood that committee is anti-Varda- man, MT Ellzey will be declared elected noater, and there will be no second race for that office was ordered by the so- called committee that met here the day the state committee met to declare the result of the primary
