OUT OF ASYLUM and WE'D
Mrs. Neibarger Was Parole Patient
From Topeka Hospital.

The marriage of Mrs. Nettie Neibar-
ger and Wesley C. Tubbs in Kansas
City, may end the chain of tragedy
in the Neibarger family, but it opens
to criticism the bill in the legislature
seeking to make requisite a medical
examination of applicants for licenses
unless that provision could be uni
form throughout the states.
Mrs. Neibarger is a parole from the
Topeka Insane hospital sent there
from the probate court of Shawnee
county. Tuesday she came to Judge
Schoch for a marriage Mcense and it
was refused. Wednesday she came
with her father who pleaded for a Ii
cense for her and Tubbs. Thursday
she went to Kansas City, Mo-, and was
successful in being married. She says
she Is cured.
E G. Neibarger, husband of the wo-
man, boilermaker in the Santa Fe
shops, committed suicide November 2,
1909, because he could not bear the
strain of the thought that his wife,
who was i'll in a hospital would die.
Four children under the age of 10
years were a responsibility he would
not face. He crawled under his house
and behind a foundation wall at his
house at 154 Grattan street and took
strychnine. His body was found the
following day.
The asylum parole was granted Mrs.
Neibarger September 90. 1910. While
she insists she is cured she has no GER
tificate and the probate court docket
shows only a parole.

COAL LAND BILL.
Is Discussed Before Senate Committee
by Wickersllam.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Attorney
General Wickersham today discussed
the Alaska coal land bill before the
senate committee on public lands. He
declared the bill would tie up all lands
so as to make development impossible.
Particular attention was devoted by
Mr. Wickersham to the Cunningham
claims, which figured so conspicuously
in the Ballinger-Pinchot case. He
took the position that if the courts de-
cided the Cunningham claimants were
entitled to the coal claims filed upon
by them and the courts decided like
wise in the cases of about 200 other
claims the lands involved should be
released to the claimants. In such an
event, said the attorney general, there
would be need for the passage of such
a bill.
The subject will be given further
consideration at another hearing in the
near future.

SHE WILL. NOT TESTIFY.
Mrs. SchenI's Lawyers Have Changed
Their Plans.

Wheeling. Jan. 21.-Just before court
opened Prosecutor ]. B. Handlan said
in his opinion Mrs. Schenk would not
be placed on the stand by the defense.
He supported it by adding that the
night of her arrest she promised to
tell him all about the case but had
failed to do it.
When questioned concerning the al
legged assertion of Prosecutor Handlan
that Mrs. Schenk had made a confess
sion to him, Attorney O'Brien denied it
saying she always maintained her in
nOcence.
DR.. S. L. Jepson, who examined
Schenk in company with DIR. Hupp, the
prosecutions star witness was then call
ed to the stand
From what you learned asked ].
J. P. OBrien, plus what DR.. Hupp
told you did not you come to the con-
clusion that he was suffering from gas
trio troubles and not arsenical poison
ing?"
No, could not say that. He had
evidently some arsenic
On crosS-examination he said Schenk
was undoubtedly big healthy man,
before his alleged poisoning and had
lost mucn weight since He admitted all
symptoms which he found indicated
that Schenk was suffering from chron-
ic lead poisoning and also arsenicaI
poisoning.
Mrs. Jane Hedges on direct exami
nation said:
Albert Schenk told me that John
had bought his wife a $4,000 automo-
bile and that he said, I hope she breaks
her neck the first time she goes out in
it. I will leave no stone unturned to
get rid of that woman and another ont
of the family
On DISCRIMINATION, Mr.. Handlan
sought to establish the fact that the
witness was an enemy of Albert Schenk
who headed syndicate for the pur-
chase ri a Of of
suit had been brought against her.
She would not admit this, however.
and declared that she was on friendIv
terms with Albert
1t was stated by the defense that it
would probably rest it's case at : O'CLOCK
today and that it would not resort TO
the insanity plea.
The defense rested at $3.50 p. m.

MAYOR SAYS CUT 1T OFF
Asks Gas Company to Limit Supply to
Domestic Users.

Mayor Billiard has written the following
letter to Manager Treleaven of the Gas
company in reference to the attempts to
supply the domestic demand for gas in
severe cold weather:
During the severe cold weather which
we experienced about the first part of
the present year the natural gas supply
was so short that there was a great deal
of suffering on account of the failure of
the gas to furnish sufficient heat to the
residences of the city.
Il therefore request you that during the
period of cold weather your company de-
vote its entire efforts to furnishing an ade-
quate supply of gas for domestic use and
that you discontinue the sale of gas at
special rates to all manufacturers and
large consumers
Manager Treleaven. apparently in re-
Spouse to the mayors letter, has sent
notice to all manufacturing concerns
which have been paying fifteen cents per
thousand that after January goth, the
rate will be advanced to the domestic
rate of twenty-five cents; presumably to
discourage the use of natural gas for any
but domestic purposes

THREE GET DIVORCES.
Wives Are Relieved of Husbands Who
Are Burdensome.

Three divorces were the Saturday noon
grist of Judge A. w. Dana's court today.
DELLA A. Hanson was relieved of Henry
A. Hanson upon a showing that while he
works for the Santa Fe and earns $3.50
a day, he let her go with a 3-year-old girl
to the Provident association to live. They
had been married four years.
Myrtle Long was given a decree from
Byron Long and the custody of a 5-year-
old girl. Mrs. Long told the judge that
while her husband worked in Denver he
spent all of his $32 week at a gambling
Resort and gave her nothing. She told
the court further that Long at the pres
ent time was living with Blanche Shep-
herd in North Topeka and that while he
has not given her one cent, she saw him
go into a dry goods store with the other
woman and pay 81 a yard for a dress for
her and buy her a pair of shoes.
Fannie Shearer was given a divorce
from Clarence Shearer who three months
ago finished a term in the county Jail for
petit larceny in company with May
Rogers with whom he was making his
