PLAYS NEAR MURDERED WIFE
Musician Sends Aged Mother Away,
Then Kills Self-lntended to Send
Body Away In Trunk.

New York.-Playing the Miserere
from the opera I'll Trovatore," to a
company of diners, who encored him
repeatedly, while the body Of his wife,
whom he had slain, was lying conceal
ed in his apartment, Albert de
Brahms, violinist and orchestra lead
or widely known here and in Paris,
decided one Sunday night the details
of the method by which he intended
to dispose Of her body. Then when
discovery of his crime seemed to be
made by his gray-haired mother. one
of the innocent causes Of the tragedy,
he sent the aged woman away from
his apartment at 229 West Thirty-fifth
street. Then he went into rear bed
room and shot and hanged himself.
Within two minutes after De Brahms
died new trunk in which the police
are convinced the murderer intended

From every part OF the State come
reports of grave apprehension and
near dispair of farmers because of the
continued wet and cold weather.
Crops planted between. or during
spells of rain have been held back by
the cold-perhaps killed by frost
There are great many farmers who
have but little planted beyond few
peas or other garden truck and unless
n dry spell follows soon the indica-
tions are that crops will be small for
this year 1T Is so late now that the
grain crop Is just gamble" said a
well known Penobscot farmer, Fri
day. There are farmers who had
pieces of oats sowed, and they have
all been washed out. They will put in
sible but there is a question whether
they will get anything or not. Both
oats and mixed grain should have
been sowed weeks ago. The whole
month was so rainy. however, that but
a very little planting was done. There
is large percentage of the farmers
who have nothing In the ground yet in
the way of substantial crops. There
is chance for the corn crop yet If we
get plenty of dry weather and get 1t
right away to get the ground into
shape so that it can be planted The
potatoes that are in the ground are
likely to be worse off than If they
never been planted. In the lower
lands it is said that they are rotting
coming up at all. They can
be planted as late as this for a good
crop If we get favorable fall Very
few of the farmers have any potatoes
IN the ground yet"

BEAUTY Is CALLED HABIT
Judge Rules Woman's Clothes Assume
Fixed Standard as Result Of EN-
pendltures Allowed Her.

New York-Beauty as a habit may
become the slogan of this years June
brides. II an opinion concurred in by
a majority Of the judges OF the APP
pellate division of the supreme court
here receives general notice, since 1t
Is held that the character and guam
tity of clothing married woman Is
In the habit of wearing fixes the
standard which the husband must sus-
( tain should he for any reason have
an attack of parslmony after the hon.
eymoon.
The question arose In suit
brought by tailor to recover a bill
for $685. incurred by the wife of a
New York merchant said to have an
income OF $4,000 q year. Testimony
ldduced at the trial showed that at
the time the contested articles were
bought the wife's wardrobe contained
30 dresses, and suits, dozen hats,
ninety pairs OF silk stockings, three
dozen pairs of gloves, two dozen pairs
Of shoes, ten pairs of silk equestrian
lights and additional clothing suffi-
cient to fill number of trunks.
The justice who wrote the major
Ity opinion Of the court contended
that the wordrobe WAS such as had
been established as habit by the
wife, with her husbands knowledge,
and that IL the matter were laid be-
fore jury the latter might 80 find. A
nice point was raised in regard to
the items Of the 1864 purchase, which
included two coats and three addition
al suits, as to whether these were ac-
tual necessities
Tailors testifying as experts de-
clared that the extra clothing was an
actual need, since the styles changed
twice year; and the suits could be
worn only three or four months.
Through mere technicality the hab-
1t theory Ia left In doubt, since the
court found In favor of the husband
because the extra clothing was
charged to the wife by the tailor, and
not to the husband

MAN HURT IN WILD RUNAWAY
Horses on Steep Mountain Road Near
Shenandoah, Pa, lnJure Farmer
SO He May Die.

Shenandoah, Pa. - AS William
George, prosperous farmer, was
about descending steep two-mile
mountain road leading to his farm in
the Catawissa valley, with a load of
malt, his team of spirited horses took
fright at flying paper and dashed down
the road at terrific speed.
George, trying to stop his gallopping
and plunging animals, broke the reins,
when he was hurled forward under
the horses feet and wagon, the horses
trampling upon him and the wheels
passing over his body. He was pick.
ed up unconscious, and is probably IA.
tally injured.
Shortly after this the wagon strucR
a telegraph pole and plunged down
a 80-foot embankment and was de
molished. The horses dashed on with
only the pole, and the fact that farm.
ers coming up the steep mountain road
escaped the runaway seems almost
miraculous.

PRIN CE IS CONVICTED.
Negro Who Killed Deputy Warden
Davis Is Found Guilty.

Lincoln, April 30.-Albert Prince was
found guilty of murder in the first de-
gree by the jury which reported this
morning. The jury balloted six hours
before reaching a decision shortly af-
ter midnight. Prince stabbed Deputy
Warden Albert Davis at the state
prison February II. He was a negro
convict.
Prince depended on insanity as his
defense, claiming that he had been
driven to desperation by i'll treatment.
In establishing this contention ne
brought forward sensational evidence
upon treatment of convicts, much of
which was disputed, but some of which
was admitted to be true by the peniten
tiary officials.
Prince received the verdict calmly,
drumming on the table while it was
being read, a sneer on his race. When
the clerk had finished reading the bal
lot, he calmly invited one of the spec
tators to attend the hanging, saying:
''You had better come down to the
little necktie party we are going to
have at the home"
