Mrs Mariella Berry Olin, of Birming-
nam, Ala, refuses longer to live with
her husband, Frank F. Olln. She
mas brought suit in the supreme

to Justice Greenbaum that he had
spanked his wife, asserting il was a
husbandly privilege and corrective
measure which could not be construed
as cruelty. Mrs. olin, however, con-
siders Il high degree of cruelty,
because her colored maid witnessed
the spanking.
Olin said that his wife has develop
ed an unquenchable thirst. When
she ordered "a quarts of whisky and
two bottles of vermouth. Olin
thought that extravagant and object
ed. His ire was further aroused, he
said, when his wife later smuggled
two oints of whisky into the house
in her silk stockings. Then came the
spanking.
Justice Greenbaum refused to
award temporary alimony, comment

niece were with DR.. Jones in the car,
but escaped serious injury. They
were scratched in several places.

case of skin grating is being tried on
Thomas. l6-month-old son of Thomas
Vaughn. The boys clothing caught
fire at the kitchen range, five months

The strange case Of the campbell

n who may become famous for her
connection with will contests Mrs.
Edith Blair is one Of the important
figures in the suit Of relatives to break
the will of James Campbell, the St.

hell and her daughter, was interested
in the contest of the will of Thomas
H. Blythe OF San Francisco, and John
Stetson, theater manager Of Boston
both very wealthy men.
Mrs. Blair has said she received
word from her daughter. who was
Mrs. Elizabeth Snoddy Hitchcock,
and whose whereabouts she does not
now know. that she had given a baby
to Mrs. Campbell about March II,
1893, In New York. That is the date
OF the birth Of Mrs. Campbell's dau-
ghter, Mrs. Louis Campbell Burk-
ham.
Therefore, according to Mrs. Blair.
Mrs. Campbell didn't have a daugh-
ter. but obtained one, and palmed her
off on her husband for many years.
Those relatives who we're left out of
the will of the traction man have
used the charge to bring suit to break
it. They assert on the story of Mrs.
Blair, that the girl the traction man

for Mrs. Campbell are now busily

SAN FRANCISCO. July 12.-Buy a

er Of these theories for grabbing a
fortuns or losing it may be followed
with success, In other words. despite
the encroachment Of the automobile
upon the horse domain, racing is still
a great little game in which the
chances Of big gains or heavy losses
are just as great as ever.
The exposition meet was marked by
racing for some of the richest purses
In the history Of the harness game
Two horses which were the central
figures in the richest events-the
100000 trot and $4,000 pace-fur-
nish the theme for this story.
The $4,000 trot was won by Sprlg-
san, big rangy horse owned by two
San Francisco horsemen. Spriggan
won $4,000 for his owners when he
led field of twelve to the wire in
straight heats.
And they paid but $3.50 for him at
an auction in February. The man
who let go Of the horse at this price
was none other than R. ]. Mackenzie.
the millionaire Canadian horseman.
Where Mackenzie pocketed a few
hundred, the purchases of Spriggan
pocketed thousands four months aft
erward
Now for the other side of the story
The favorite for the $4,000 pace in
the early betting was DR.. Burns, Jr.,
owned by Ireland and Leach of De-
troit. DR.. Burns was one Of the most
sensational performers on the eastern
tracks He was a big stake winner
and it is doubtful whether $4,000
would have bought him.
Along In March, while working a
mile in Los Angeles a man stepped
out on the track as DR.. Burns headed
into the stretch. His driver had to
pull the horse up sharply and he Slip

leg. Arriving in San Francisco, Dr.
Burns was brought along slowly, and

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Study of
the official text OF Germanys reply to
the American note on submarine war
! fare as II affects neutral rights
strengthens the conviction OF high Of
ficials that a critical point in the re-
lations between the two countries has
been reached.
Not only do they feel that the Uni
ted States must refuse to accept the
German proposals for the future con-
duct Of American citizens on the high
seas, but the failure of Germany to
disavow the sinking OF the Lusitania.
with the loss Of more than 100 Ameri-
cans, in their view, has brought on
crisis. the outcome Of which it is diff
ficult at present to foresee clearly.
Action Delayed Several Days.
That there will be no action BY the
United States for at least another
week was indicated. Several days will
be required to measure fully the con-
sequences and responsibilities which
will be incurred by the American gov
eminent in framing a policy to meet
the situation firmly.
Secretary Lansing will go to Cor
nish, n. H., to confer with President
Wilson He said he would study the
note carefully and then communicate
with the president.
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
Ambassador, intends to call on secre-
tary Lansing In the course Of the week
to learn Informally whether he can be
Of any service in the situation. No
engagements have been made for a
conference, but it probably will take
place on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Official Text Arrives.
The official text of the German re-
ply arrived Sunday and was made pub
lie.
In all quarters here the reply was
the single topic of concern.
II was authoritatively indicated that
obviously there will be no surrender
Of rights and no acceptance of Ger
man proposal to guarantee immunity
to American ships under arrangements
to be agreed on by the naval authori-
ties Of the two countries concerning
the marking of neutral ships.
Responsibility Placed ON Germany.
There is no intention, from indica-
tions in official quarters, TO force a
| crisis, but in whatever policy is fol-
lowed the American endeavor will be
to place full responsibility on Germany
for any subsequent rupture in friendly
relations.
Since the Lusitania was sunk on
May there has been no violation OF
the principles for which the United
states has contended, unless the mis-
hap to the Nebraskan can be included,
and in that case the Washington gov
eminent has not finally reached con-
clusion as to whether a mine or tor
pedo caused the explosion.
In the view OF many officials. should

pect American rights, discussion could
continue. There were intimations
however. that in the next communi-
cation the United States most likely
would impress on the German govern.

that Haiti Is a mock republic. The
hundred year-old struggle of a negro
community to govern itself, has proved
failure and out OF the failure has

Politically Haiti is divided between
