Sayre Had Brilliant College
Career and Is Deep Student
of Law and Politics.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Miss Jes-
sic Woodrow Wilson, always the
chum and admirer of her father. the
President, has not departed from this
role in the circumstances surround
ing her selection Of a husband. For
one thing Washington society has
discovered, with a collective gasp OF
surprise, that Francis Bowes Sayre,
the man OF her choice. is a younger
replica of her famous father, possess
ing the same asceticism OF counte-
nance, the same brow. nose, chin,
eyes, and all.
For another thing. Miss Wilson fol-
lows her father in laughing down the
time-worn superstition regarding the
unluckiness Of thirteen. It matters
not to her that she will be the thir-
teenth White House bride in the
year 1913.
Admiration for Father Deep.
All Washington to-day, following
its discovery that Sayre possesses
something like the Wilson physiog-
nomy, is wondering whether that fact
had not a great deal to do with Miss
Jessie's capitulation to the young
lawyers suit. Her admiration for her
father is profound. as is that OF the
entire Wilson family.
Never did hero worship exist in so
marked a degree as in the family Of
the President, with the President as
the figure for alteration. And now,
after the first shock OF discovery,
Washington society is beginning to
pass the remark that 1t is nothing
but natural that Wilson girl should
marry a man like her father.
Young Sayre's career has been laid
along lines Identical with the early
career of the President A brilliant
college record, the reputation achiev-
ed Of a scholar and a leader, a vigor-
Gus plunge into laval this he has
done. just as Woodrow Wilson did
before him.
Like Woodrow Wilson, too his pre-
objections have been toward the part
of law in political economy and in
sociology.
1t was through his interest in So
cial betterment work that he and
Miss Jessie Wilson acquired their at
tachment.
Miss Wilson Prominent Worker.
Miss Wilson has been prominent in
work Of this kind, being a member Of
the national executive board OF the
Y. w. c. A. In this capacity she
visited the Night Court for Women
in New York City, together with Mrs.
j. Borden Hartman last winter. She
also visited the Children's Court In
February Miss Wilson addressed the
Legislature Of Delaware in behalf OF
a ten-hour law for working women
The Legislature passed the bill In
Richmond. Va, last year. Miss Wilson

NURSE WHO WE'D
To SAVE MANS
LIFE SUES HIM
But Woman Who Repents Action
Is Denied a Divorce Decree
by Court.

Los ANGELES. July (Which ?
Marriage and the saving Of a human
life or refusal and the moral res9on-
sibiHty of its loss?
This was the question Mrs. Dorothy
Lander a pretty 20-year-old nurse,
faced In the operating room Of the
Clara Barton Hospital when she
agreed to become the wife of Kirk c.
Lander from whom she now seeks
her liberty.
She testified in Judge Monroe's
court that she married Lander to save
his life.
This strange romance was revealed
by the young woman as a witness In
her own behalf Her husband, she
said, was a patient at the Clara Bar
ton Hospital She was his nurse and
had attended him for ten days.
He suffered a relapse and an opera
ton was declared by the attending
physicians to be necessary to save his
life. He was placed upon the operat-
ing table, but refused to submit 10
the operation until he had seen mis-
nurse
When she appeared. he told her that
he loved her-that life without her
was not worth living. II she prom
ised to marry him he would submit
TO the operation necessary to save his
life. he said, and II she refused he
would die.
The operation was successful and
two days later the couple were mar
ried. Mrs. Lander sought a divorce
on the grounds of nom support, al
though she admitted that she had
never lived with her husband, who
contested the action.
Judge Monroe held that the young
woman had failed TO make out a case
legally. Mrs, Lander was heartbroken
when the court denied the decree.

PlungeS Off Fourth
Story; Spike Hooks
In His Pants; Saved
Thrown by Falling Plank, Man Hangs
Head Downward Until His
Rescuers Arrive.

LOS ANGELES. July 5.-W. E.
Duffessy, a workman employed in the
construction of the new Braley Build
ing at Pasadena, owes his life to the
strength of his overalls, which pre-
vented him from being hurled from
the fourth story of the building.
Duffessy was struck on the head by
a plank dropped by a workman on
the floor above him. He was thrown
down the improvised elevator shaft
headfirst, but after falling to the third
floor his overalls caught on a pro-
truding spike and held him steadfast.
He remained in this position with
his head down until several work
men who witnessed the accident hur-
riedly made their way, with the aid
of a rope, to where he was hanging
and hauled him to place OF safety.

President at Summer
Capital Seeking Quiet.

WINDSOR, VT, July president
Wilson arrived here at 1880 a. m. to-
day TO spend the summer. He was
met by Mrs. Wilson and two Of his
daughters, and the party motored to
the Summer White House at Cornish,
n. H, three miles away.
Upon arrival at the Summer White
House the President gave orders that
no newspaper correspondents or pho
tographers were to be admitted on
any pretext. The President said he
was in Cornish to take a rest, and
that he would transact no official
business nor even consider matters
which would tend to disturb his brief
vacation.
If anything Of public moment oc-
ours, the President said he would re-
turn to Washington, but he would not
discuss it here. The squad Of six Sc
cret service men is on hand to see
that the Presidents orders are car

kIMBALL SEAT
. Of WAR FOR ALL
NEW COUNTIES
Advertisements and Maps Cover
Lobbies of Hotel Which Is
Thronged by Legislators,

Strangers entering the Kimball
House lobby are apt to conclude that
the business in chief of the Geor-
gia Legislature is to create new coun-
ties. Placards, posters, banners and
maps are everywhere, each setting
forth advantages bound to accrue to
the State at large if some particular
locality is given local self govern
ment and some thriving village au-
thorized to construct a county court
house
Every county that hopes TO be has
a room in the Kimball House, an ad-
vertising scheme in the lobby and a
few favored sons scattering argu-
ments. Whosoever so much as hest
tates and looks at one of the maps,
posters, placards, banners or bulle-
tins is sure to be button holed and
given an advisory talk.
Among the prospective counties
whose advertisements embellish the
Kimbsll House lobby are Morris,
Griggs, Barrow, Tate, Hansell, Har-
deman, Gambler, Warner Hampton,
Atkinson, Milledge, Northen, Evans
and Stonewall-fourteen in num-
Der.
Every would-be county on its post
er, or map, sets forth a reason for
seeking separate existence, and some
Of these reasons are decidedly novel
For instance, Morris County uses this
plea: Honor the name of Robert
Morris, the man whose credit made
American independence possible"
Griggs County takes in all people
who want a new county" Hansell
County posters proclaim that Han
sell County has merit" Hampton
County boosters have put up the
reason, I'VE need it."

BILE for the spectators, who sat through

Owing to the late hour in sta ting,
but five innings were possible when
darkness gave Umpire Cooksey the
cue to stop the slaughter, and it Is
well this was so, as the strenuous work
had begun to tell on the soft muscles
of the players. But there was no lack
of ginger and the midwinter form
shown by the players was equal to
that f midsummer, many sensational
plays being pulled off by the boys on
either side.
