RECAINs HER VOICE AS
IF BY A MIRACLE

Abbeville, 8. C.-The days of
miracles are not passed. Five
months ago Mrs. c. B. Wosmoansky,
Of Abbeville, suddenly and without
the least warning lost her voice.
Medical advice was sought from local
doctors and then specialists from a
distance were consulted. Nothing
seemed to do any good, and for five
months communication by means of
a pencil and pad was the best that
could be done.
Arrangements were being made
for Mrs. Wosmoansky to leave Sat-
urday for Spartanburg, to have the
extended care of specialist in the
treatment of what seemed to be
the trouble.
Saturday morning daughter, Miss
Pauline Wosmoansky, awoke having
dreamed in the night that her moth
er's voice had returned to her. She
told this dream at the breakfast
table, and kept commenting on how
real it all seemed, and how she had
cautioned her younger sister in the
dream to be careful for fear some
thing might be done to cause the
voice to leave again.
After the family left home for
their various duties Mrs. Wosmoan.
sky was crossing her room when she
| felt q sensation as if something were
leaving her throat. She found that
her voice had returned, and was able
to reach the telephone and communi.
cate with her family. Afterwards she
was overcome with great weakness
as if she had passed through some
strong ordeal.
There is great rejoicing in that
home to-day. Mrs. Wosmoansky il

FRESH BRIBE HINTS
IN STILLMAN CASE
Charges to Be Elaborated in
Application for New Cana
\ dian Commission.

In the application for another commits
sion which Is to be filed with Justice
Morschauser in the Supreme Court ON
tuesday or Wednesday,. This Is the
first fruit of Mrs. Stillman's recent trip
through the North Woods Of Canada.
Sohn u Brennan Of Yonkers, chief
counsel for Mrs. Stillnan, will make the
application for the new commission to
take testimony. The motion Is made
necessary by the fact that tho warrant
or authority of the present rogatory
commissioner. Eugene II. Godin. X. c.,
or Montreal. expired yesterday at noon.
Just before the hearings were to have
begun Mr.. Brennan asked the court Tor
$4,000 additional for the commission.
and the firm of Nicoll, Anable, Fuller &
sullivan, counsel for Mr.. Stillman, op-
poser it. Justice Morschauser granted
S7,50o. but an appeal was taken to the
Appellate Division in Brooklyn and il
viii be heard next Friday.
Since the charges were made in the
first application that agents of James
"A. Stillman" attempted to bribe wit
nesses in Canada there have been many
indications that the Canada commission
would figure in bitter legal battle, AS
the bribery charges caused Mr.. Stillmar
TO retain another lawyer to fight them in
