Mrs. Sarah Harris, bedridden for nine
years and who on August ?, 1912, wrote
letter to The Tribune asking that the
Legislature pass a law allowing her and
similar sufferers to be put to death to
end their misery.
When she wrote her letter, or rather
dictated il, for she was paralyzed from
the neck down. she pleaded for death
constantly. Eminent physicians ana
surgeons who were called in by her
relatives, who were wealthy, had told
her that her case was hopeless:

Harris, who fairly radiates cheer and
happiness, as sne sat up IN bed, aDie

"And when. a year ago, began to grow
well the first thing ! did was to reach
for that telephone there"-she pointed
20 one at the bedside-"and call up the
physicians here in New York who had
given me UP. The only favor | asked
them vas that hereafter they never tell

every day in the last year she has been

"They brought me sandwiches, ana

Berlin. via London. Nov. %. A well
attended meeting called by women re
formers Of fashion was held last even
ing under the patronage Of the Crown
Princess. The purpose was to appeal
to the patriotic women of Germany TO
cast off French and other foreign fash

style of dress, which, it was stated,
should at the same time be beautiful
and dignified. but free from fripperies.
The speakers illustrated the pro-
posed fashions and condemned high
heeled shoes and pumps. gauzy stock
ings, foreign fabrics and cosmetics.
An opposition speaker produced sew
eral gowns of the latest models, which
ran counter to most of the theories
that had been expounded. The dis
mayed reformers soon found that a
majority Of the audience had deserted
them and were applauding enthusias-
tically each new gown ard drowning
out the disapproval of the little minor
ity who favored the truly German
modes.

TO SUE H. E. dean
The State Will Undertake to
Recover the Money
Paid to the Secretary Of the EX-
position Commission.

The state will bring suit this week,
in the Wyandotte county district court
to collect from Henry E. Dean S2,420
paid to him as secretary of the Pan
ama-Pacific exposition. Papers in the
case are being prepared today by S.
M. Brewster, attorney general.
Dean was named as a member of
the fair commission by Governor
Hodges. He was elected secretary and
transacted the routine work of the
commission. That was all right and
no one objected. But when the legis-
Iature came to Topeka last winter it
was asked to make an extra appropri-
alton for the state buildings at the
San Francisco and San Diego fairs.
Then some Of the state watch dogs be-
gan to dig into the expense accounts.
One of the things that attracted
most attention was the fact that Dean
as secretary of the fair commission
had drawn a salary of $40 a week for
his services. The matter was taken up
with the attorney general and Brew
ster ruled that Dean had no legal
right to the money. His salary stop
ped, but the money was never re-
turned to the state. Now Brewster is
going to Kansas City and will file a
civil action in the Wyandotte county
district court to collect the $2,420,
which it is claimed was paid to the
commission secretary.

LAW IS INVALID
Kansas Statute Held UncOnSti-
tutiOnal by u. S. Court.
Made Railroads Pay Plaintiffs
Lawyers in Damage Suits.

Washington, June 1.-The Kansas
statute allowing attorney fees to ship
pers in suits for damage by reason of
freight cars was annulled as uncon-
St1tutlonal today by the supreme court.
The suit decided today by the
United States supreme court, reverses
a decision rendered in March, 1919:
by the state supreme court and holds
unconstitutional act of the legis-
lature passed in 1909, which per
mitted shippers to collect attorneys
fees where suit was filed for failure of
railroad companies to furnish freight
cars. The suit went to the state su-
preme court on an appeal from the
district court of Edwards county
where J. P. Vosburg recovered dam
ages and attorney fees against the
Santa F'e railway, when he failed to
receive cars for the shipment of grain.
In their briefs, attorneys for the
Santa Fe attacked the constitutionality
of Section 1903 of the general statutes
of 1909, declaring that it did not af-
ford to the railroads equal protection
afforded under the federal constitu-
tion. The state supreme court af-
firmed the decision of the trial court
and the case was appealed to the su-
preme court of the United States with
the result that the law is held invalid
The case will probably affect the
payment of numerous claims for at
torney fees in shipping cases in this
state.
