ISSUE DEFICIENCY WARRANT
For Rebuilding Agriculture and
Mechanical College at College
Station-ko Special Session

Austin, Texas June 3. An
emergency deficiency warrant
will be issued to re-
place the burned main build
ing of the Agricultural and
Mechanical College. This an
nouncement was made follow
ing a conference between Gov
ernor Colquitt and Walton
Peteet, John L. Guion and Ed K.
Kone. directors of the institu-
ton, and K. 7. Miller its Presi-
dent, today. incidentally the
Governor made It clear chat he
had no idea of calling the legis
lature together in eXtraordi-
nary session to make the needed
appropriation. as has been sug-
gested In some quarters
A special session Of the
legislature would cost at least
one-third as much as the new
building said the Governor IN
this regard. Then there is
the probability that it would
spend most OF thirty DAYS in
considering other matters and
that it might not even vote the
appropriation at all.
II is the plans to have the
banks of the State carry the
proposed warrant for the cost
of the main building as well as
the deficiency warrant issued to
replace the mess hall last
winter.
AID IS PROMISED
Chairman Peteet of the Board
of Directors announced during
today's conference that the
bankers Of Fort Worth already
had promised him to carry $50
900 worth of the warrants and
that the bankers of this city to-
day promised he could count
on cashing at least $25, 900 worth
of the warrants here. Then Mr..
Peteet said he had laid a propo-
sitIon to place $40. 600 worth
of the warrants with Houston
financial institutions and that
the Clearing House association
of that city had promised to
give him a definite answer in
the matter within the next few
days. Help is also expected
from the bankers of Dallas.

other large cities Of the State.

ONLY 27;; HAD 10 HUSBANDS
DECLARES, HOWEVER, SHE HAS
NOT HAD GOOD ONE YET.
Young Woman in Jail for Bigamy
Has Had a Most Extraordinary
Matrimonial Career.

ALLENTOWN, Pa.-Mrs. Jennie
Schmoyer, wife of Edward Schmoyer,
was committed to Jail tonight on a
charge of bigamy. She is accused
of having married ten husbands and
never having a divorce from any.
Her case shows the most extraordi-
nary matrimonial career ever heard
of hereabOuts, especially as she is
only 27 Her latest husband enter
ed the charge.
The listing of her husbands
formed the hardest job County De-
tective Herbert Bachman ever had,
but he and Magistrate Bowen said
tonight as nearly as they could find
out the ten men whose wife she has
been in ten years were named Cor
van, Meyers, NOll, Barber, Williams,
Stephenson, Frank G. Miller Gott-
lieb Miller, John CARTS and Ed
SchmOyer.
Frank Miller is dead, and only
two of the men, SchmOyer and CARTS,
could be rounded up for the hear
ing. CARTS swore he had married
her under the name of Ida Stephens
anu pIOuuC6u the marriage C6IIlu-
cate. He said they separated when
she threatened murder.
Schmoyer testified he had married
her Sept. last under the name of
Jennie Fahringer, the Rev. Thomas
Knecht of Salisbury performing the
ceremony. Two months later she
left for Bethlehem, Pa, and shortly
after that had him arrested for non
support, although he had home for
her in this city.
Under cross examination she men
toned the names of the other men,
but her lawyer, former District At
torney E. J. Lichtenwalner, of Mabel
Bechter fame, advised her not to
talk.
Mrs. Schmoyer is a small woman,
not pretty in repose, but vivacious
and rather attractive when she
smiles. She has dark eyes and is
proud of her long black hair.
During the hearing she said she
hoped to get a real good husband
before her career was ended if she
had to marry half a dozen more
men.

THE CZAR is DEAD; NOW A RUG.
Billy Goat Appetite With Inadequate
Digestion Cause of Death.

The Gar died i'm Atlanta ate" a
short Illness last week. He was
forthwith skinned and his hide now
makes a handsome rug in the office
of his honor, Mayor CORTLAND S.

The Gar came from Russia, but
his name was not Nicholas, and ne
wasn't related to the reigning fam
lily, though he was a Russian aristo-
crat. He was a big brown Russian
bear at the zoo in Grant park.
His inability to discriminate be-

was the mediate cause of his de-
mise. To put it differently, he had
the appetite of a billy goat and an
ostrich combined, but did not have
the digestive apparatus of either.
Consequently now he is a rug.

awaiting a change in the Alabama vote in the hope that it would start the final landslide for the candidate.
 There was less disorder in the con vention than at any other session dur ing the week. The tired delegates were anxious only to conclude their work and they balloted without delay.
 Although Wilson made slight gains early in the forty-fifth ballot, there were no serious breaks in the dwind- ling Clark ranks.
 During this ballot the Wilson lead CTS worked like beavers to secure the Underwood strength for the New ter sey man. A. Mitchell Palmer, leader of the Wilson forces, visited the Ala bama delegates and earnestly urged them to throw their votes to Wilson, but he could not secure any agree. ment.
 A poll of the New Mexico delegation on this ballot showed an inclination to break the solid eight Clark votes, but they were held by the unit rule
 New York's 90 again went to Clark and hope of a nomination on this bal lot was lost

The situation led to the belief that Wilson would be nominated on the forty-fifth ballot
 Effort was made at the end of the forty-fourth roll call by the Wash ington delegation to vote proxies on a poll of that delegation. Chairman James insisted upon maintaining his position formerly taken that no prox- ies should be voted in the convention.
 An appeal was taken to the conven- tion, but the was sustained by a roar ing vote which seemed almost unani- nous.
 The poll of Washington showed five of the 2S delegates with half vote each absent cutting Washingtons vote in the convention to II 1-2. On the poll eight of these were cast for Clark and 1-2 for Wilson, but Washing ton being under the unit rule, IA votes were recorded for Clark.
 An unexpected break in the solid Alabama vote of A for Underwood failed to occur on the forty-fifth bal lot. The Wilson people were anxiously

The Wilson adherents cheered the Vir- ginia vote, but from the Clark forces there went up a shout of:
 Ryan and Bryan"
 The forty-third ballot gave: Wilson .602, Clark 329, Underwood 9S 1-2, Harmon 28, Foss 27, Kern 1, Bryan 1, absent 1-2
 This gave Wilson a gain of 10S and Clark loss of 1O1. Underwood lost , 1-2. The announcement of this vote started a Wilson demonstration.
 The ballot left Wilson 124 votes short of the necessary two-thirds to nominate.
 Once more the call of the roll be- gan. It was the forty-fourth ballot and Wilson in the beginning gained one in Arizona. Colorado climbed aboard "the band wagon,' giving Will son a gain of nine. This made the vote ten to two for Wilson. One of the two votes was Mrs. Anna B. Pil- ser, sister-in-law of Speaker Clark In Idaho on this ballot Wilson lost half vote, but he gained two as Indianas vote was cast solidly for him.
 It was rumored on the convention floor that Governor Marshall of Indi- ana would be a candidate for vice president if Wilson was nominated.
 Wilson gained 3 1-2 in Iowa, and Louisiana gave him one more.
 Maryland gave Wilson a gain of 1-2, and Ohio gave him a gain of l more.
 Pennsylvatnia's two Clark men swung into line and Wilson received the solid 76 votes from that state.
 In Tennessee Wilson gained l. Utah cast it's 8 votes for him, gain of 1-2 vote.
 Wisconsin swung into line with it's 26 solid votes, and a cheer from the Wilson adnerents greeted the gain of i votes
 The forty-fourth ballot put Wilson 9S 1-2 away from a nomination. His vote was 629, a gain of 27 as con- pared with the forty-shird ballot. l Clark dropped from 329 to BOG.

The nomination of a vice presidential can didate and the adoption of the plat form framed hv thc subcommittee of the resolutions committee, of which w. j.

 When he finally placed Clark in nomination, a yell sounded through the hall
 Meantime the leaders were exerting every effort to reach Clark on the telephone.
 As Dean concluded, former Governor A. NJ. Cookery of Missouri hurried to the platform to decline the nomina- ton for Clark.
