WHAT MADE HER
PICK HORSE "DOC"
FOR SOUL MATE?

WAURESHA, Wis, May ia
strange element in the Lusk Roberts
tragedy is that when Grace Lusk,
who had no love affair until she was
past forty years of age, finally did
fall in love, her choice should have
settled on DR.. Roberts. To have found
her eventually worsI iping some
man Of high distinction in art. liter
ature or the sciences would have been
the expected. Her thoughts, her
trend Of life, which bore her on eV-
cry vacation to the shrines of art and
learning Of Europe, gave such indi-
cation.
Dr. Roberts sizes up to no such
ideal. He is a practical politician and
his financial fortune has been, build
ed on the sale Of patent medicines for
cattle. He is a horse doctor.
But Miss Lusk, whatever may be
the feeling OF resentment against him
now since he disavows there was a
romance in which he took a willing
part, declaring that whatever OF love
existed was on her part alone. since
he declares that she "hOunded me,
admits she loved him and contends
ne lnQEEu Hdu hOn lNl lDNE W al
dent courtship.
Weary OF Wife.
The while he told her incessantly
Of how weary he had grown OF his
wife. and that If the future was TO
hold any happiness for him it must
come through n divorce to be fol
lowed by a wedding with Miss Lusk.
On the very eve Of her trial she said
In her cell:
He loves me now. but does not
dare avow it."
So sure had Miss Lusk become OF
this love that she was all for going
straight to Mrs. Roberts this on the
night Of June 20. certain she
could corN'7-e the doctors wife that
the righ' ing for Mrs. Roberts to
do would o. to get out Of the way OF
her husbands future happiness.
She went so far in the prosecution
OF this idea as to present herself at
hte door Of the doctors home. Blu; II
was he who received her. She says
he dissuaded her from seeing his wife
that night. but yet did not convince
her that II Mrs Roberts was given
to fully understand the situation she
could be induced to withdraw from
the triangle"
On returning to her home that
night she seems to have gone through
some hours OF agony seeking to
reach a decision-fOr doubts would
appear TO have arisen as to what she
could expect from Mrs. Roberts,
whether il should be Mrs. Roberts
or herself who was to be eliminated
from the triangle" Proof OF this is
in the fact that this night she drew
up her will: she also scribbled many
notes to friends, some Of them 4ndica-
tive Of her intention TO commit sui
eide. Then she decided to write to
the Doctors wife, to make her appeal
in this manner. II was a letter she
did not hnish. But II began:
virtually ParaIyEed.
1T has been the desire with me for
a long time to tell you frankly what
are the state OF affairs between Dr.
Roberts and myself. ] have asked
him repeatedly to tell you the whole
story. but you seem TO have him par
llyzcd to a pitiful degree. II / were
to blame YOU for any one thing il |
would be for that. You must have |
known for many years that there lid |

Wall Street. 1890 a. m.-Shippings,
oils and tobaccOs represented the con-
strucdVe side at the dull opening of
today's stock market, scoring gains
of large fractions to almost two points.
The reverse side was provided by
motors, fractions and a few specialties
including hide and leather preferred,
the latter yielding three points. Rails
were again susceptible to pressure, but
U. S. Steel was fairly steady, The
balance of the list was devoid of

Philip Sheriden, aged 26 years.
son of Mr.. and Mrs. James Sheriden
of sos Stanley street, died early this

Y. M. T. A. & B. society and a
comm unicant at st. Joseph's church.

VIENNA'S CHRISTMAS
TO BE GLOOMY ONE
1000 Out of Work, Food Scarce and
Fuel and Clothing at
Famine Prices

I~FfCcSs
Vienna, Dec. 24.-With shops closed
at p. M, after which the streets are
in semi-darkness, with homes lacking
in light and heat, with food and cloth
ing at famine prices, and more than
$4,000 persons unemployed, Viennas
first peace Christmas promises to be
far gloomier than any during the four
years Of the war. Persons with unlim-
tied means can get nearly everything
they need, but the middle classes and
the families of professional men, who,
before the war and even two years
ago, were comfortably off, must, for
instance, go to bed on Christmas night
at 8 O'Clock because Of the entire lack
of light.
Since the arn1istice was signed the
shopkeepers have brought out amaz-
ing stores of goods, especially of cloth
ing which only a few days previously
they asserted were non-existent.
Prices have fallen to ne-fourth the
previous fantastic rates, but are still
too high for any but the war profiteer.
Food prices show no reduction and
are still prohibitive in many cases,
while some products, like milk, are
almost unobtainable.
The newspapers report that $4,000
persons were waiting at the meat
markets on Saturday morning of
whom 10000 had been standing in

WILSON AND WIFE
ON SHOPPING TRIP
Have Enjoyable Time Visiting French
Stores-Are Recognized By Many
Americans On Streets.

Paris Dec. 23.-President and Mrs.
Wilson went Christmas shopping to-
day, visiting many of the principal
shops during a tour of two hours In
the center of Paris. Both have been
about the city before, but this was
the first time that they ventured into
the shopping district together. They
walked from the Murat residence
down one of the principal boulevards,
going first to a widely known Amerf-
can bookstore where Mr.. Wilson was
at once recognized. After making
several purchases there, they went to
some shops that Mrs. Wilson desired
to visit. They made remarkable pro-
gress with French clerks, who did
not always recognize them Few
Parisians did know Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson, but all Americans, with whom
the center of Paris now teens gave
greetings, which the president and
his wife returned with smiles and
bows.
When shopping was finished and
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson had a,ccun1uIa ted
many packages an automobile driven
by one Of the American motor corps
drivers took them home. The presi-
dent always remem bers those who
are members of his immediate staff
at holiday time, and this year they
will have presents bought in Paris.
