ART LEADS GIRL TO CONVENT
Boston Sculptor .Renounees Profes-
sion to Take the Veil

Boston, Dec. 15.-The relation Of
art and religion is illustrated in the
motives which have led one of Bos-
toms best known women sculptors to
retire from her profession and ex-
change the world for the seclusion
of the convent.
Miss Anna ]. Woollett Of Jamaica
Plain was up to recently an assistant
instructor in modelling at the Boston
Museum of Fine Arts, and was fire.
quently employed by Bella l.. Pratt in
his studio On Harcourt street.
The girl was educated in a convent
and the suggestions of art served TO
intensity that early prediction.
Recently she visited the convent of
the Sacred Heart in Albany and ar
ranged to take the veil. The girls
mother said today:
Il am much disappointed, for ] felt
that Anna had a career before her.
No love story is connected in any
way with her resolve to withdraw
from the world. She has always been
q devout girl, and she at last felt
drawn to give her life to religion"

THE POWER CHARTER
Some Suggestions for Safeguarding
Of the Public

To the Editor OF the Banner:
The franchise for the water power
company in Woodford is a very inn
portant bill for this section OF the
state. All means should be taken to
give reasonable rates to users.
Publicity is the greatest safeguard.
The books of the company at any
and all times should be open to the
proper authority. This may be an
examiner appointed by the governor
at the request of some of the users
of the town.
Also the company should furnish
bonds, which should be surity
against damage caused by high water
from any failure of their dams in time
of high water.

LAW WILL Be OBEYED
IN STATE EXECUTION

Some space writer in Reno
telegraphed a story to the San
Francisco Chronicle to the effect
that Warden Cowing was unable
to secure five men to carry out the
execution Of MIrkovich at the prison
on the 23d of this month. The
telegram states that the men at the
prison refused to shoulder the
rifles that would kill the man as he
chose shooting instead of hanging,
and that the Warden had pleaded
with him to change his mind and
take hanging. 1t was all a fake
story.
While the date of the execution
was placed at the 23d of this
month, the execution. if it does
take place. will be delayed. In
speaking of this matter Mr..
Cowing said:
l have never talked the matter
over with the condemned man. |
have never asked the guards to do
the shooting and have made no
arrangements as yet. There is an
appeal taken before the Supreme
Court for new trial and there will
be no execution while this is in the
hands of tn . court.
"ln case that a new trial is grant
ed it would delay execution. In
case of refusal of new trial it
will mean the setting of new date
for sentence, and then the matter
can be figured out.
I'm case the man has to be put
to death by shooting it will be done
at the prison and in legal manner
by the employees of the prison.
Under the new code a man under
death sentence has the choice of
shooting or hanging and if the shoot
ing feature is to be the order it
will take place under the laws
direction. 1t will all be handled at
the right time and until the matter
is settled there will be no troubles
on our minds. The Chronicle story
is a rank fake from end to end. "

WILSON CAMPAIGN FUND

The democratic national COM
mittee has appealed to the news
papers for assistance to raise d
popular campaign fund for the pres
idential campaign. Governrr
Wilson has set his face sternly
against contributions from corpor-
atoms. He holds that the people
should own the party machinery
and through it the government.
If the party is put in power by
corporation influences and individu-
ais seeing SPECIAL privileges from
the government, they will own the
government and exact from it heavy
tribute in return for having financ-
ed the campaign that gave these
officials their positions of power.
Governor Wilson wants nothing
and will have nothing of this sort.
He wants the people to own the
party which means they will own
the government. Therefore, he
wants the campaign expenses in
Cured in making him president to
be contributed by the millions of
citizens who ought to own the
government and in whose interests
the government ought, and must be
administered.
At the solicitation of the Nation
al committee, the Independent will
assist in the work. When the cam.
paign opens, Wilson campaign
fund will be started in these
columns.
