little children, who entered the room
where the tragedy occurred in time to
see their father die, but the Identity of

Couple Eloped.
Mrs. Glover said he was saloon
keeper who induced her to elope from
the home of her father, a wealthy

Thereafter, she asserted, according to
a statement by her attorney, De Vii"
lers lived on an allowance provided by
her father, who is now in Europe.
She also said her maiden name was
Jean Campbell and that she had won
q championship of the Jersey Golf as
sociation in 1904. De Villiers wore IS
watch charm medal inscribed to
Jean Campbell as golfing trophy. But
those connected with the case refused
to make any comment when told that
no Jean Campbell had figured in Jersey
golfing championships in 1904 or any
other year.
Silence Enjoined.
Both she and Glover were enjoined
TO strict silence by Lecompte Davis,
who was retained as counsel by Glover.
Through kilograms to San Antonio
the police learned that Mrs. Glover had
been divorced from De Villiers in Oc-
tober, 1912, and had been awarded the
custody OF the two children, David,
aged 1. and Marie, aged 6, but no in
formation could be obtained relative to
her marriage to Glover, which, she said,
occurred October 6 last, just before
Glover came here.

Prof. a. Christen. lecturing before an
audience composed largely Of college men
at the University Club last night, ex-
planned the simplicity of Esperanto and
the desirability of adopting the so-calied
universal language as the method OF ex-
preston between persons or peoples or
different tongues and races.
Prof Christen criticised the English
language. declaring that it Is impossible
for one unfamiliar with the language to
pronounce word by seeing 1t In print
to spell the word from its pronuncia-
ton. He advocated the adoption of Is
peranto because of the freedom OF that
language from the many complexities and
perplexities of grammar. construction and
spelling that render difficult to a for
eigner the task of learning the English
tongue and that make it equally diff
cult for one of English-speaking race
to become proficient in the use Of an
alien language.

with many examples of the ease of ex-
preston in Esperanto the speaker show
ing how one familiar with the so-called
universal language may form new words
or phrases expressing exactly the mean
