MEN OF PRINCETON
TO HIRE SPECIAL
TRAINS
COLLEGE STUDENTS PLAN TO
TAKE ACTIVE PART ON IN
AUGURATION DAY.

New York, Jan. 31.-Woodrow Will
son today accepted the offer of the
students of Princeton university, to
escort him from his home in Prince
ton to the White House on the day
he is inaugurated.
just a century ago Princeton gave
James Madison. The centenary will
be celebrated in a unique program, to
which Mr.. Wilson gave his consent
today when Paul F. Myers, Prince
ton senior, rode on the train with him
to New Yonk and outlined the details
on behalf of the students.
The Princeton youths will charter
two special trains of 13 cars each on
March 3. One car will be put at
the disposal of the president elect and
his family and accompanying news
paper men. The governor smiled
when he found the number 13 con-
fronting him again, for he believes it
means luck to him. The students,
more than 1000 strong. will take Mr..
Wilson direct to his hotel on his ar
rival in Washington and will attend
the smoker that evening given by the
princeton Alumni association of
Washington. The next morning the
students will escort Mr. Wilson from
his hotel to the White House, where
President Taft will join the incoming
president and ride with him to the
capitol.
The students, together with the Es-
sex troop Of New Jersey, will preccde
the presidential carriage to the capi-
tol.
After the ceremony at the capitol,
the Princetonians will take their
place in the inaugural parade just be-
hind the. military and at the head Of
the civic organizations.
i will be delighted. That will be
fine!" exclaimed Mr.. Wilson, en-
Enthusiastically, when the plans Of the
students were explained. He added
that he. wanted to reach Washington
about O'Clock in the afternoon so as
to get few hours rest before the
Princeton smoker.
Mr. Wilson came to New York for
his usual weekend of diversion from
Official activity He attended pri-
vate dinner of the Round Table club
or which he is a member He
planned to return to Princeton to-
morrow and will spend Sunday there.

Helena, Jan. 31-The plans of the
progressives to call a statewide con-
terence in Helena in March for the
formation of a Peoples Direct Lcgisla-

powerful impetus from the active sup
port of platform democratic members
of the legislature. Among these, Rep-

the proposed league that may be said
to be typical.

Washington, Jan. 2t.-Thc senate

TWO PERILS
And Agnes Perry, Scotch Girl,
Appealed to Law.
SuitOr Would Wed Her or
Take Her Life.

IF We dinna marry me-" said w. ].
Jordan to Agnes Perry, I'll kill We
sure. And if we run back to the auld
countrie,'' he adds, .I'll follow ye
there"
1t looked as if it were the vault or
the altar for the bonny lassie who re-
Gently came to the states form the hills
and heather of aud Scotland. And the
big chap who met her here was will
ing to break sthe sixth commandment
all for the love of a lady.
The story was told this morning by
c. S. Briggs, assistant United State
district attorney, and by Jock Nc
Bride. a Scotchman, who is a friend
of Agnes.
Agnes, who is a rosy, buxom lassie,
came to Topeka a year ago from Pals
ley, where the Scotch plaid shawls are
made. She made a competent addi-
ton to the kitchen force at the Santa
Fe hospital, and all went well until
she encountered Jordon.
He became infatuated with Agnes,
and proposed in six successive ways
and places. The lassie, unused to the
manner of American impetuosity, was
completely bewiIdered.
Il dfnna love ye," she told him many
times.
Jordan was so persistent that she
began to think it was her duty to be-
come his wife. Then he annoyed her
so extensively that she confided in
Mcbride. The story resulted in Jor-
dons leaving Topeka, and settling in
New Bloomfield, Mo-, where he spent
much of his time writing threa tening
epistles to the object of his unrequit-
ted passion.
Agnes, goaded beyond endurance,
and bit frightened, too, carried one

and exhibited it to Mr. Briggs. She
wished to know if it came under the
purview of the federal statutes as nom
mailable matter.
1T certainly does the assistant
district attorney assured her cit comes
under the recent amendment that let
tiers threatening death or arson are
non1nailable under the laws of the
United States.''
Since the communication had been
mailed from New Bloomfield. it came
under the jurisdiction of the Missouri
attorney.
1T has been referred to the district
attorney there" said Mr.. Briggs this
morning, land is, in all proba bility,
being warmly investigated''
In the letters Jordon reiterated his
intention of killing Agnes then de-
stroying himself.
Let the mon come to Topeka" said
Mcbride, who is a canny Scot. and
a good friend. I'll punch this nom
sense out of him!"

count of the absence of witnesses for
the state who procured the evidence
upon which the arrests were made.
This morning the John Patterson
case was dismissed on account of the
inability of the state to identify the
defendant. Patterson is in Chicago.
He was represented by counsel, but
inasmuch as the offense charged IS a
misdemeanor he cannot be compelled
to return here for trial The evidence
was sufficiently uncertain as to the
identity of the prisoner that the trial
resulted in a hung jury. County At
torney w E. Atchison decided it would
not be worth while to proceed with
the case.
Other cases dismissed included
those of Roy Anderson, Dumars
Capron and "Goldie" Hawker. The
jury in the second division was ex-
cused until Monday when the hearing
of city appealed cases will begin. A
new criminal assignment is expected
to be made for Wednesday of next
week, following the disposition of the
