A st. Louis woman testified In a
divorce suit that her husband pelted
her with money, compelled her to
spend $1,000 a month in clothes alone,
and that she could not count all the
money he gave her. And yet she was
not satisfied. 1t may be remembered
that some time ago another woman
wanted a divorce because her hus-
band was too perfect. The unrest
among women Of which one hears so
much must have a queer twist in it.

needed to be revoMtionized and went
so far as to say he would endeavor
ito graduate students as unlike their
fathers as possible"
His policies kept him in almost con-
tinuous conflict with the university
trustees and professors. In fact, the
bitterest controversies in the institu-
tons history marked his term. Will
sons friends say it was conflict be-
tween Progressive and Democratic
president and the forces of privilege
and aristocracy.
The earliest recorded mention of
Woodrow Wilson as presidential pos
sibility is in the form of letter writ
ten by some one in Indianapolis to the
News Of that city at the time of Will
sons inauguration as president of
Princeton. This faint boom was re-
vived on Feb. 8, 1906, at the Lotus
club, New York, where Mr.. Wilson was
the guest of honor. On that occasion
Col George Harvey mentioned him as
a possible candidate for the presiden-
tial nomination.
Colonel Harvey's magazine, Harp
er's Weekly, for a time gave ardent
support to Wilson's campaign for the
nomination.; but at the beginning of
1912 this support was withdrawn.

For half anhour these men sat
in the dim death chamber, fdget-

each other, never speaking "a
word.
Then, just before II o'clock,
Warden Bridges left the room.
He returned with William A.

Bridges, in hisshort, soldiefly
manner, told of his receipt yester-

Contrary to all expectations,

Indeed, the scene in the death
chamber at midnight was such a
one as neeyr before had occurred

For the first time condemned
man spoke as he was being
strapped in the chair; for the first
time a man paid the penalty for
murder with his lips moving.

CAN'T PATENT THE PRICE.
Court Decides That Patented Articles
May Be Sold at ANY Price.

Washington, D. C.-Patent medi
cines and other patented articles may
be sold without reference to the
prices fixed by the patentee.
This was the opinion handed down
today by Justice Wright in the equity
court when he refused the applica
ton of drug manufacturing con-
Germ for an injunction to prevent a
local druggist from cutting" prices
without the Manufacturers consent.
The court declared that the patentee
of an article could control the price
by which it should be sold by
'licensee,' but that once the article
had found its way to the open market
by outright purchase all right to
fix the price passed from the pat
entee.
