FAMOUS WOMAN
BREAKS ANKLE

NEW YORK, November 23.-Mrs.
Ida Won Claussen, who once sued
Theodore Roosevelt for a million dol
lars because she said he interfered
with her social success at the court Of
Sweden, was unable to appear today
before the commission appointed to in
vestigate her sanity, because she broke
her ankle trying to escape from the
Bloomington Asylum.
Mrs. Won Claussen was sent to the
asylum several weeks ago, after she
had written to a supreme court JUS
tice who was trying her action to have
her divorce case reopened, saying
IF your decisions are not in my favor
God help you.
It was learned today that several
days ago she leaped from the window
of her room. On account of her in
jury, the examination has been indefi
nitely postponed.

EGYPTIAN LEGEND OF OSIRIS

The legend of Osiris in Greek writ
4rs describes the murder of the God
figuring all Egyptian burials, while
the Egyptian monuments and texts
widely record the festival and funeral
rituals of Osirian worship in his many
deific manifestations of lite. light and
Judgment.
AS god of the dead the high sane
tuary of Osiris was at Abydos, In the
furthermost west of the flaming boun-
Diary of Egypt and at the entrance to
the underworld.
Abydos is reached from the railway
at Balyana, about ten hours south of
Cairo, where the Nile valley broadens
fifteen miles from east to west, into
circle drawn by the Arabian and
Libyan hills. The road one travels to
day is a new one over the immemorial
highway of pilgrimage through rich
fields to the western edge Of cultiya-
ton, marked by the cool palms of the
lake-mirrored village of Benz Mansour
and dusty-brown Arabat ell Madfuna.
Few places by night or day are more
impressive than AbydOs even now in
the mystery of it's luminous, ghostly
multitudes, for here the earliest fig
ures vet disceTned in Egypt move, and
that double city of This and Abydos
appears dimly with its notable kings
and their amazing arts. There, too, in
the sand rising into the hills that lift
the fint-armored Ligyan desert begins
the great metropolis, where in royal
tombs these Kings were buried amid
priceless flowery treasure Of granite
and alabaster.

THE BEGINNING OF MARK

of his literary career. Orion Glenn

to attempt to raise funds.
"In desperation he broke away and

paper had been in love, and was said

drown himself. Sam gave a pictur-

names connected with the affair Thea
he took a couple of big wooden block
letters, turned them upside down, and
engraved illustrations for it, showing
the victim wading out into the river
with a stick to test the depth of the
water. When that issue of the paper

SAYS CONTEMPT OF COURT
IS OFFENSE AGAINST PUBLIC

WASHINGTON, November %
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison, the labor leaders,
must again stand trial in the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia on
charges of contempt arising out of the
Bucks Stove and Range case Justice
Wright today handed down a decision
overruling the motion of the labor
leaders for a dismissal of the pro-
ceedings under the statute of limita-
tons.
Holding that the prosecution of a
charge Of contempt of court is not a
criminal proceeding, and therefore not
subject to the bar of the statute of
Limitation, which prevents prosecution
of crimes on which indictment or in
| formation is not filed within three
years of commission, Justice Wright
of the District Supreme Court today
decided that Samuel Gompers, John
/ 4llNNAlNll anu + aim -lbl loOlls lubOl
leaders, must be tried on the contempt
charges which stand against them.
The court oveTruled the motion of the
labor leaders to dismiss the proceed
ings for want of replication to their
plea of the bar of the limitation
statute.
The sections of the motion to dis.
miss in which they charge the court
with unreasonable delay" in present.
ing the charges of contempt are treat.
ed by the court as frivolous and with.
out merit Nor does the court say
that these paragraphs" said Justice
White, ARE not of an offensive and in
solent nature, which would justify and
perhaps ought to require the striking
of them from the files.
Offending Is Against Public.
"Of the fallacy that alleged con
temnors are contesting with judges
contemnors cannot too soon unload
their minds" continued the justice
for if charges of contempt are true
the contest is against the supremacy
of law. The duty and concern d
judges is only that, for and in the
name of the people, the supremacy o
law shall be maintained"
Justice Wright also declined to ac
cede entirely to the request of Com
pers and his associates that if the cas-
had to be heard the testimony bt
taken in open court and not by an ex
aminer in the absence of the justice.
When it is considered that such
method of hearing might result in thu
exclusion of evidence material to tn
Questions involved, Justice Wrigh
said, by the inability of the court
process to reach material witnesses
he felt obliged to refuse the request
