MRS, WILSON
CRITICALLY IL
IN WHITE HOUSE
AFTER FOUR MONTHS BRAVE
FIGHT AGAINST INEVITABLE,
THE END is BELIEVED NEAR
FAMILY AT BEDSIDE.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Mrs. Wood
row Wilson, wife of the president of
the United States, tonight, lies at the
point of death.
Four months of almost unbroken i'll
ness, a complication of nervous all
ments and Brieht's disease have sap
ped the vitality of the first lady of
the land. The end is regarded as n
matter of days, perhaps hours. Her
husband and three daughters are at
her bedside and relatives have been
summoned. Physicians have been in
consultation for days, but 1t was ad-
mitted at the White House today that
hope for her recovery had almost van
ished.
Conscious only at intervals, Mrs.
Wilson has been cheerful and has call
ed constantly for her husband. Every
moment that could be spared from ur-
gent official duties has been devoted
by the president to his wife. At the
side of his constant helpmate and adj
wiser he wrote the tender of good Of
fees appealing to the European mon
archs TO stay their conflict, From her
sickened side he has been giving or
ders to his department heads for the
relief of Americans abroad. The press
of domestic legislation, the European
war crisis and Mexican troubles, to-
gether with financial situations all
through the country, have weighed
heavily on the president, though he
has faithfully waged his day and night
vigil.
For several days and nights it has
been known to those in closest touch
at the White House, that Mrs. Wilson
was gravely i'll and that hope for her
recovery was slight.
/ One day last March Mrs. Wilson
slipped on a rug at the White House,
injuring her spine. An operation was
necessary. After weeks of GONZALES
cense she finally rose from her bed,
but the burden of winters activity at
the White House, together with charity
work in the slums of the city brought
on nervous prostration. Stomach trou-
bic added to her nervous ailment and
Brights disease developed
Three weeks ago she seemed to
rally and was we'll enough to walk
supported by a nurse, in the White
House grounds. She watched with sat
isfaction as gardeners laid out the
last of the Italian garden which she
had planned for the south front
the executive mansion.
With her apparent recovery the
president urged his wife to 30 to a
cooler climate, but she steadfastly de
clined to leave her husband. The re
lapse came last week and since she
has been sinking rapidly. Only mem
bers of the family are admitted to the
sick room.
Day and night the family has watch.
ed anXiOusly over her for the past few
days Yesterday her pulse stopped
beating for few moments. Oxygen
and other restoratives were applied
Early today she seemed somewhat bet
ter, but late today grew worse.
The president, always most sensitive
about exaggerated reports about mem.
| bers of his family, authorized no of.

COMMON PLEAS COURT.
Judge Gary PreSides-Only One Jury
Case Tried-Yerdict Aginst South
ern Railway.

The court of common pleas was
convened On Wednesday morning with
Judge F. B. Gary presiding. It ad-
journed at noon on Thursday. Only
one case was tried that of Mrs. Lula
May Davis against the Southern rail-
way. Mrs. Davis some time ago
bought ticket at Prosperity for
Greenville and the agent by mistake
gave her a ticket to Newberry. She
asked the ticket taker to phone to
Prosperity to ascertain about the mis-
take but he claimed not to have time
and put Mrs. Davis off the train at
Newberry. The verdict of the jury
was for $50 actual damage and $3.50
punitive damages. Mrs. Davis was
represented by Blease & Blease and
the railway by Johnstone & Cromer.
A motion for new trial was made.
