tributed $1,000, $500 and many smaller
monthly sums to Sees support. aided
the police in gaining evidence. He also
began action for divorce from Mrs.
Bridges and suit for alienation OF at
fections against See.
See, In apparent fear Of public SEN
timent, did not seek bail. and remain
ed In Jail until his trial began more
than two weeks ago. While In jail, he
continued writing and preaching his
doctrine Of O perfect race to be estab-
lished thru the new belief.
Wife Secures discriminating Letters.
While See was In jail, Mrs. See. who
had separated from her husband sew
eral years before, with the aid OF n
professional safe opener. visited Sees
fiat, raided his safe and obtained many
letters from her husband to Mona and
Mildred, as well as others from the
cult leader to the two mothers. These
were taken In charge Of the United
States government with view to pos
sible conviction under the white slave
act. They were loaned to the prosecu-
tion during the trial. See refused to
take the stand in his own defense, the
chief witnesses being the four women.
The women repudiated an alleged con-
fession said to have been made to the
police that the fiat had been used for
immoral purposes and took refuge IN
the language Of Absolute Life which to
most Of those In the court room, proved
unintelligible.
Mr.. Bridges was an important Wit
ness for the state, testtfying that his
daus shter had refused to return to her
home after being Quarantined with
scarlet fever, in Sees fiat. He testified
that upon returning suddenly from out
of the city he had found Mrs. Bridges
at the home Of Absolute Life. He also
declared that he had permitted his w1fe
to make large and regular contributions
to Sees support.
None of the women were in the room
when the verdict was returned.

How rhev eathe in sweden.

The weekly bath at some OF the pri-
yate schools in Sweden is very funny
affair. Running hot and cold water Is
unknown, and that the pupils may all
bathe at the same time and help each
other round, shallow tubs full OF water
are placed on the floor IN circle. To
each boy is given a pair OF cloth nit
tens and a piece OF soap and he is told
to get into n tub. The tubs are close
together. When the boys have been
in soak few mitutes each one Is told
to got to work on the back OF the boy In
front OF him and give him a good
scrubbing.
Nothing could be more ludicrous
than the sight Of two or more dozen
boys vigorously scrubbing one anoth-
er's backs Occasionally one Will take
this opportunity of paying of an old
score and will scrub harder than Is
really necessary. As rule all look
forward to the bath hour with pleas
ure, and the greatest hilarity prevails
