WOMAN JURORS
SCORN STYLE Of
SMART LAWYER
Beau BrummeI Clothes and Bach
eIor Button Of Barrister Fail
to Win His Cause.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 19.-Per-
sonal pulchritude and unusually
smart habiliments, heightened by a
bachelors button and an ingratiating
manner, failed TO win for Assistant
District Attorney Maxwell McNutt,
in his appeal to the jury Of women
which tried Mrs. Bertha J. Williams
on an extortion charge to-day. After
celebrating one hour and SIS min
utes, the jury, the first in the his
tory of the world composed of wom-
en- to hear a felony case, brought
in a verdict of acquittal
"Of course she said she did what
she did, but we didn't think when she
said she did II, she meant she had
meant to do it," said one of the jury
women.
Hence, Mrs. Williams, attired in a
fetching Milan hat and a neat white
serge tailored suit, much sCrutiniZed
by the jurywomen, made discreet os-
Culatory advances to her benefaCtorS,
and the incident was closed.
Mrs. Annette Robinson, also ar
mored in attractive feminine fiXings,
was the complaining witness in the
case. She accused Mrs. Williams of
having written her a letter April s,
attempting to extort $3.50 in return
for the delivery of a trunk said to
have contained certain evidence
which, according to the letter, would
have embarrassed Mrs. Robinson, had
1t fallen into the hands of the po-
lice

ROCHESTER, MINI, July 10
That y. c. r." the mystery patient
in the Rochester State Hospital, will
never know who he is nor will the
world. unless friends of olden days
come to the rescue. and that he will

the surgeons. following a remarkable
operation performed upon the brain.
1T is problematical that the opera
ton will accomplish its purpose" said
c. c. Heyerdale, first assistant super
intendent Of the State Hospital, after
leaving the operating room.
The opening Of the skull revealed
large area Of degenerated brain
cells covering the centers of speech
and memory, and an unusually large
cyst containing fluid was removed.
This would indicate that in times
past 81. c. R." probably suffered a
hemorrhage of the brain, which could
have been the result of a stroke of
apopleXy or an injury inflicted upon
the skull or brain. The unusually
large area of degeneration discour-
ages any hope that the memory will
ever be restored or speech recovered.

CHANGS,ON WAY

YANKEE FRILLS
Wife and Children of Chinese
Minister Sail Derssed in Latest
American Fashions.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1s.-After
more than three years in Washing
ton with her husband, Minister
Chang, Nine. Chang is returning to
the Orient She is accompanied by
two daughters, a son, Henry K
Chang; a lit e daughter-in-law and
a tiny grand child. During her resi-
dence in America Nine. Chang has
changed her ideas about many things,
and about others she maintains the
old Chinese beliefs.
The two young daughters, Miss
Alice and Miss Lille Chang, have
been attending school In Washington
for two years, and with the progress
Of their education have abandoned
their picturesque nature clothes for
American garb
Whether they will adopt the clothes
Of their native country on their re-
turn remains to be seen. Miss Alice
Chang, who spoke for the party at the
St. Francis before they sailed on the
ManChuria, said:
1T all depends on what is in fash
ion in China.
Favor American Fashions
IF we find American clothes fash
ionable out there, we shall wear them.
We adopted them when we entered
Gunnison Hall, our Washington
school These are more convenient
when travelling" she added, pointing
to a pale blue silk crepe costume WIKI

we wear our other clothes, people
stare 80. and sometimes they laugh.
They aren't used to them in Washing
ton"
The question Of recent changes IN
China is of especial interest to Nine.
Chang and her daughters.
The idea that women may vote in
China and that the door Of opportu-
nifty is opening for them daily there
has caused the Chinese women to be
thoughtful.

Home is the place for women,
said Nine Chang. true to her coun-

housekeeping, to stay at home and to

Nine. Chang and the daughters are
opposed to the Western idea Of "A
woman earning her own living. They
believe she should want to stay ut

/ to do without SOM of the extras
which her own money can secure.

NATION FINALLY
REFUSES BURR'S
PENSION PLEA
United States Decides After 70
Years Just to File Request
in National Museum.
BY JONATHAN WINFIELD.

WASHINGTON. July Is.-After
some delay-79 years, 10 be more or
less exact-the United States Gov
eminent has decided on a final action
on Aaron Burr's application for
pension. The Government proposes
to put the application in the Ma
tional Museum. This is a patriotic
and quite inexpensive method Of dis
posing Of a formal application for
money.
Exhibited in a glass inclosed case
in the museum, the papers may rest
peacefully and indefinitely, telling
future generations that in his last
days Burr was considerably hard
up" This is a fact not generally
known. But If future generations
happen to be observant they may
notice that the papers show Uncle
Sam to be a bit tardy in matters Of
pensions.
Papers Valuable Historically.
Historically, the papers are very
valuable. They contain a letter writ
ten by George Washington to Aaron
Burr, which even day-about 1876
years after the letter was penned-
is in a state Of perfect preservation.
Any student Of values of historical
relics can tell how much such a
thing is worth. Oficials at the Ma
tional Museum declare the letter to
be Invaluable"
The paper is a bit yellow but it is
intact. The ink is a trife faded, but
can be read without difficulty even
without the aid Of glasses. And. fur
thermore the letter reveals a bit of
Washington's character more clearly
than a volume of history. The miss
i've shows how the general treated
with his officers. Burr had written
to Washington requesting leave Of
absence from military duty on &C
count of Ill health and suggesting
that while off duty his pay may be
discontinued
Here is George Washingtons re-
ply to Burr:
Headquarters,
Frederick 26th Oct, l7IS.
Dear Sir:
81 have your favor Of the oath. You,
IN my opinion, carry your ideas Of
3elicacy too far when you propose to
drop your pay while the recovery OF
your health necessarily requires your
absence from the service. 1t IS not
! customary and II would be unjust.
You therefore have leave to retire
until your health is so far re-estab-
| Iished as to enable you to do your
duty
BE pleased to give the Colonel no.
| tice OF this, that he may know where
| 20 call upon you should any unfore-
! seen exigenoy require It.
Il am dear sir,
Your mo- obt. servt.,
GEO. WASHINGTON.

Try Associated Pressl
LONDON, Dec 1S-Eyery serious
minded politician in England if not
the whole people, is anxious to see a
settlement Of the home rule question
that will end the long-drawn-out bat
tie between the two conflicting par
ties in Ireland, and most of the
statesmen of the kingdom, both those
in active service and those who have
retired, have been contributing some
thing at least towards that end
The prime minister and the Eng.
fish unionist leaders to whom the
people are looking to find a way out
of the situation, which has become
serious because Of the threatened
revolution Of Ulster if the present
/ bill is passed, and still greater rev
olution involving :he rest Of Ireland
if home rule is not granted, have
therefore received lots Of advice
Present indications are that the gov
eminent will adopt, in its overtures
to the opposition, the course suggest
ed by Lord mcdonnell and Sir Ed
ward Grey, namely, home rule within
home rule or administrative auton-
omy for Ulster province There has
been a great deal of talk Of the tenn
porary exclusion of Ulster from the
operation Of the bill, but this is not
considered possible, mainly because
both Irish parties are strongly OPP
posed to a settlement on those lines
The nationalists, first and all the
time, are for a United Ireland. This
is a matter Of sentiment just as mucl
as it is a matter of revenue The
unionists, on the other hand, feel that
temporary respite from home rule
would remove none of the objections
to the bill. Furthermore, they say
I to accept such a settlement would
! amount to the desertion of the Prot
estants living in the south of Ire
I land, who they contend are just a
! much opposed to home rule as arr
; those Of Ulster.
On the government side the exclu
sion of the Protestant counties pre-
/ sents untold difficulties. In the frs
place the whole home rule bill wouli
