WOMAN JURORS

Beau BrummeI Clothes and Bach

to Win His Cause.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1s.-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 it, 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
it fallen into the hands of the po-

ROCHESTER,, MINI, July 10
That u. c. r." the mystery patient

ut is problematical that the opera

c. c. Heyerdale, first assistant super
intendent of the State Hospital, after
leaving the operating room.
The opening of the skull revealed
a 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.

Duplicate Was Guilty OF.

CHICAGO, July 19.-William and
Otto Andler, of 1851 North Whipple
Street, are twins. William passed
pleasantly about a lass who was going
her way with one William Dieverkorn.
Sudden anger surged through Die
verkorn, but he held himself in check
and escorted the young woman home.
Then he came back. met Andler on
the street an gave him Earring wal
lop.
Andler soon discovered that the
blow was meant for his brother and
that Dieverkorn got mixed in the de-
livery Of the goods.
Otto Andler refused to rest on this
explanation. He caused the arrest of
Dieverkorn, and 1t came out in court
how William got the laugh, Otto got
the punch and Dieverkorn got the
hook.
Judge Sabith inspected the twins,
said he couldn't see any difference
and dismissed the case, warning Die
verkorn to be more discriminating in
the future.

WAY
HOME, CLING To
YANKEEFRILLS
Wife and Children Of Chinese
Minister Sail Derssed in Latest
American Fashions.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 19.-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
the latest frills and furbelows. when
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 m
China is Of especial interest to Mme.
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 he
thoughtful.
Il don't know about this voting.
said Nine. Chang, through her daugh-
i ter. I don't believe very much N
only for some women" broke in
one daughter.
Il would make an educational quail
i1cation," said Miss Lille. Not
every woman ought to vote"
Home is the place for women
said Nine. Chang true to her coun-
try's traditions and centuries Of
training. "A woman ought TO 10
housekeeping, to stay at home and to
have children"
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
home to be cared for, even If she has
to do without SOM of the extras
which her own money can secure.
Women in China probably never
will reach that stage" said Nine
Chang. There Will be fewer oppor-
tunities for them to enter profession
al and business fields"
College is a goal which IS being
aspired to by the two daughters. al
though they are not sure yet what
particular lines they want to pursue.
1--WE can go If We want to, you know,
said Miss Alice. "Our people be-
lieve in college for girls II they want
it."

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 I9.-After
some delay-79 years, to be more or
less exact-the United States Gov
eminent has decided on a final action
on Aaron Burrs application for a
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 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
Burr, which even -day-about 1856
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. OniCials 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 tritle faded, but
can be read without difficulty even
without the aid Of glasses. And, fur
l.. taf -
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 aC-
count Of III health and suggesting
that while off duty his pay may be
discontinued.
Here is George Washington's re-
ply to Burr:
Headquarters,
Frederick. 26th Oct, 1878.
Dear Sir:
Il have your favor OF the 24th. You
IN my opinion. carry your ideas Of
deliCacy 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 It would be unjust
You therefore have leave to retire
until your health Is 90 far re-estab-
lished 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-
seem eXigcucy require It,
Il am dear sir,
Your mo. obi. servt,
GEO. WASHINGTON.

Burr's Final Appeal.

George WashinEton's letter is re-
garded as the most valuable paper
among the eheaf composing Burr's APP
plication. but the application itself,
Burr's formal appeal for pension,
has much historical worth because II
is Burr's own record of his military
service, written In 1884. just two years
before his death. at the age OF so
years, in Port Richmond, Staten
Island, n. Y. The papers contain no
mention of Burr's famous duel with
Alexander Hamilton. in which Ham
iltOn was mortally wounded.
Burr even failed to mention in the
papers that he had been Vice Presi-
dent OF the United States. and refer
euce TO the fact that he was arrested
and tried for treason for attempting
to form a republic west of the Mis-
sissIppi is also omitted. In the app
pllCation il is recited. however that
Burr was unable to appear IN court to
swear 10 the facts by reason Of bod
lily iufrmity."

II on. the batter has ample time for
about three tours of the bases. And
when pitcher hits a batter, the
game stops for time while apologies
are made. Then, too, a Frenchman
does so hate and perfectly loathe to
soil his clothing or even to disarrange
it. Also, the average Frenchman.
though famous for his bravery when
facing cannon or musketry fire, is--

games played about Paris the ball had
to be knocked mile for the man to

no such thing-at least it hasn't been
shown SO far-of beating out bunt
or short hit After the batter once

where but in the NIT of a fielder. a
spectator can tell right then whether
the runner will be thrown out. And
just imagine baseball game without
close decisions
And it is totally impossible to get

is an important adjunct of the game.
A few days ago when Tod Sloan was
drilling his team, he was impressing
on the Frenchman the Importance of
getting first and of stealing bases.
Tod then went to bat, and with fin

speed in reaching bases by watching
him closely, he swatted the ball and
