Woman Will Tell Secrets
Of Heart to Save Husband

Olympia, Wash, June 11.-Before the
day is over, Mrs. A. L. Miller, for
whose affection one man met violent
death and another is on trial for first
degree murder is expected to take the
stand in Judge Wright's court and to
make the supreme sacrifice of her life
She is to make public that which every
woman holds most secret-the conf
dences of her heart.
To save her husband from the peni'
tentiary for killing William Chatten,
president of the Union Lumber com
pany, at Union Mills near here, May
2, Mrs. Miller will recite, not merely
facts which have occurred, but will an
alyze the feelings of her heart.
She had been wavering between loyal
ty to her husband and love for her chill
dren--and a feeling that she was be-
ginning to "care" for her husband g
friend, employer and patron, the man
who was killed.
The state rested its case yesterday
afternoon.
No attempt was made to show mo-
tive for the crime, the state contentiing
itself merely in the proof, through phy'
sicians mill employees and deputy sher'
ifs that Miller killed Chatten.
Attorney Thomas Vance for the de-
fense has mapped out an almost unpre'
cedented course in murder cases.
He is going farther with the ,un.
written lnwD than has ever before been
attempted in this state. He will MAKE
frank, blunt, direct appeal for tny
"unwritten law" eliminating the usuol
temporary insanity plea.
Vance succeeded in getting IL mar
ried men on the jury,

Ethics and Sclf-interest

CHARLEMAGNE TOWER has discovered
~ that dam will hold only so long as the
pressure behind II is less powerful than the
resisting force Of the structure. When the
pressure becomes too great the dam gives
way.
Likewise an international guarantee to
protect the interests of the guarantors will
remain effective only so long as the Euaran-
tors are protected by the guarantee. When
the pressure Of contrary interests becomes
too great the guarantees are disregarded
Mr.. Tower elaborated this proposition be-
fore the American Philosophical Association
Yesterday
Whether this is right or wrong Is an en-
tirey different question from whether it is
the way things are done, The moralist may
discuss the ethical qualities of the law Of
gravity without affecting the operation of
the law And discussion Of the moral enor-
nifty of the violation Of the neutrality of
Belgium will not persuade the Germans TO
withdraw single soldier. Whether we like
10 admit it or not, the forces at work in
this war pay as little heed to the theory
of ethics as does the avalanche when IT

Marvelouspess of Common Things

TTNHE accustomed things are usually ac-

which that blood is tilled with oxygen. Inn
munitv from disease does not impress one
until 1t ceases. Ability and opportunity to
work are sometimes regarded as burdens
Friends with whom one has genial inter-

are frequently accepted without thought Of

Habit is responsible also. for much neglect

The mighty pageant of the stars attracts
less attention than circus parade, and men

looking upward from the streets they can
see the Himalayas of the heavens rilins
peak on peak as the mountain-like clouds
loom against the horizon.
The mute appeal in the eyes OF the dumb
beasts Is too often denied. and we are thus
deprived OF the kindly comranionship Of our
fellow mortals And even when we do accept
that comradeship we do not prize il as a
blessing The old earth itself swinging
through infinite spaces might fly from its
