BY ROBERT J. BENDER.

Former President Wilson has been
confined to his bed for several days
with one of his old attacks of in
digestion accompanied by severe
headache.
His condition. while necessitating
cancellation of all appointments.
was expected by his family and
physician to be such by this after
noon that he might get up and go
out for a motor ride. In cOnnec-
ton with it. however, there is in
creasing cause for alarm each time
the former Executive has one OF
these spells.
On December 2S-two months
hence-Mr. Wilson will be 65 years
old. While his general physical
condition has been regarded as
about as favorable as could be eX-
pected under the circumstances. it
mas been such as to demand con-
slant vigilance on the part of Mrs.
Wilson and Admiral Cary T. Gray
son. his private physician. The
stroke which deprived him two
years ago of the use of one arm
and further rendered his walking
extremely difficult still leaves its
mark.

Former Duchess
Of Marlborough
To Sell Palace

LONDON. Oct 80. - Severing the
last memories OF Der former hus-
/ and. the Duke of Marlborough,
whom she divorced only a short time
iag. Nine. Jacques Balsan, formerly
the beautiful Consuelo Vanderbilt, is
arranging to sell her famous and
London home. Sunderland
House. one of the finest dwellings in
the city.
And as Madame Balsan. now the
wife of a French colonel. takes this
step. her former chum, who was
Gladys Deacon, of Boston, as the
new Duchess of Marlborough, is en-
ergeticalIy developing the famous
Blenheim estate of her husband.
Only recently the Duchess was OBJ
served digging potatoes with the
workers in the fields, and when
asked why she did so. replied that
she wished to learn by experience
lust how arduous were the tasks of
the workmen so that she might ad-
wise the Duke intelligently as to
how much each class of labor should
be paid.
Since her marriage to Col. Balsan,
the former Duchess has insisted on
being known as Madame Balsan.
Sunderland House was built by
w. X. Vanderbilt as a gift to his
beautiful young daughter when she
became the Duchess of Marlborough.
Throughout the mansion the ducal
crown is mistakenly present in the
decorative scheme. 1t is worked
into the marble hall which is one of
the most striking features of the
place, and into the gilded staircase.
There is a painted ceiling in the ball
room, and elsewhere in the house
there is the famous crystal chande.

The former President, so far as
what is generally known as active

other issues is concerned, is out
of the game. While he takes an
interest in politics and has given
some attention to international de-
vclopments. he is not planning any

ably entail a real effort on his part.
Hopes to Attend Ceremonies.
The former President homes to be
able to attend the ArmistiCe Day
ceremonies at Arlington Cemetery.
He will not make a speech. He will
prepare a little Armistice Day trib-
ute to those who fought in the
great war, putting it out through
the channel of the Stars and
Stripes" as he did on Memorial Day.
Beyond this he plans to make no
statement whatever on the issue OF
peace. the armament conference or
the league of nations. He might.
however, If asked, be expected to
prepare some short tribute to the
unknown dead to be read at the
Arlington Cemetery.
AS for writing a book on Amer
iCa's part in the war and the peace
which followed, Mr.. Wilson appa-
rently has abandoned all thought
Of it. His intimates declare that
there will never be book by Will
son on Wilson" They quote him as

to write such a volue that Il pre-

Meantime he has turned over to Raw
Stannard Baker, the author, con-
siderable of his personal material,
which Mr.. Baker will embody in a
book to be issued next year.

Efforts of physicians to restore
the mans mind have up to this time
proved futile. Police have been

clue which may lead to the man $

rear platform of a trolley car. He
was picked up by a passing motor
list and rushed to the hospital.
