DEATH CALLS PRESIDENT'S WIFE
MRS. WOODROW WILSON DIES AT
WHITE HOUSE.
T '
Promise Me You Will Take Care of
My Husband" She Begs. Had
Been Sick For Months.
Washington Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
wife of the president of tho United
Stutes died nt.the Whlto House at 6
o'clock Thursday afternoon. Death
came after a brave sniggle of months
against Brlght's disease with compli-
cations. The president was completely un-
nerved by the shock and his grief was
heart-rending. He bore up well under
tho strain however and devoted him-
self to his daughters.
Kneeling at the bedside at the end
were tho president and their threo
daughters. Dr. Cary T. Grayson
United States navy and a nurse were
in tho room and Just outside a door
wcro Secretary McAdoo and Francis
B. Sayro Mr. Wilson's sons-in-law and
Mr. Tumulty his secretary.
Congress Adjourns.
Both houses of congrcts adjourned
when Mrs. Wilson's death wbb an
nounced and for a brief time the
wheels of tho government virtually
stopped.
Tho beginning of the end came at 10
o'clock Thursday morning when Dr.
E. P. Davis of Philadelphia who had
been called In for consultation said
theio was no hope. He called tho pres-
ident Into tho bedroom and there in
a broken voico told him tho truth. Mr
Wilson's fnco blanched but he horo
tho shock well. He was informed tho
end was n quoBtlon of hours.
Mr. Wilson then took his dnughters
Mrs. W. fl. McAdoo Mrs. Sayro ond
Miss Mnrgnret Wilson nsldo and told
them. Until then they had thought
thero was a chanco for her recover.
During tho day Mrs. Wilson spoko
to Dr. Grayson about tho president
-.those health slm thought moro of than
she did of her own.
Last Thought fcr President.
"Promlso me" sho whispered faint-
ly "that If I go you will take caro
of my husband "
Flag At Half Mast.
Vlco President Marshell and mem-
bers of tho cabinet and tho leaders in
congress were notified. Both housed
promptly ndjournod. Tho (lag on the
Whlto House dropped gates were
cloned and the silence ot death spread
over tho Whlto House for tho firsc
time since 1892 when Mrs. Benjamin
Harrison passed away.
One day last March Mrs. Wilson
slipped on a rug at tho Whlto- House
injuring her spine. An operation was
necessary. After weeks of convales-
cence sho finally rose rrom her bed
hut tho burden of a winter's activity
at tho Whlto House togcthor with
charity work In the slums of tho city
brought on nervous prostration.
Stomach troublo added to her nervous
ailment and Brlght's disease devel-
oped. Threo weoks ago sho seemed to
rally and wns well enough to walk
supported -by a nurse in tho White
House grounds Sho watched with
satisfaction as gnrdeners laid out the
Inst of tho Italian garden which she
hod planned for tho south front of tho
executive mansion.
With her npparcnt recovery tho
president urged his wife to go to a
cooler climate but she steadfastly de-
clined to leave her husband.

and flro of dramatic interpretation.
Sho was one of the leading sopranos

Tho members of tho Commuters'
Crochet club wcro seated in their
facing scats on the 7:55 and tho lure
of the luncheon dolly was strong upon
them. Mabel had started out with
tho intention of making only ono
which should servo as an isolated
table-mat for a distant cousin but
bo great was the fascination of tho
work that she had kept on and was
now putting tho plcot edge on tho
fifth. Sadie alone was not engrossed
In work but sat very still In her cor-
ner by the window absorbed In a
bright colored circular. Othejr cir-
culars like it were strewn ov.er her
lap and peeped from her handbag.
"What's that you're reading?" asked
Mary looking up from her work.
"It's a pamphlet on Bermuda" said
Sadlo.
"Aro they all about Bermuda?"
asked Anno.
"Oh no" said Sadie. "There's ono
on Newfoundland and one on Nova
Scotia and one on the Thousand Is
lands and ono on the Adlrondacks and
another on a trip through tho Cann
dlan Rockies and a tour through Yel
lowstone Park and "
"My what a lot of places to choose
from" said Mabel. "I think It takes
a great deal ot energy to get a trip
like ono ot those all planned out and
know Just when your tralnB leave or
your boat starts and get all your con-
nections worked out nnd know what
clothes you aro going to take."
Sadies began to trace with a hot llt-
tlo finger an Intricate routo on an
orango map. IJ evidently led over hill
and dale and included a glimpse at
most of tho wonders ot tho earth.
"Leaving Now York at 4:33 on Fri-
day I would reach HUlsburg at 7:43
on Saturday morning; making n quick
connection I would get to Plalnsville
Junction at 1:18 and from there "
"Mercy how complicated" said Mabel.

Rare Book Changes Owners.
A copy of a very rare book the
"Speculum ChrlstlanI" printed by Wil-
liam do Machllnia in 1483 was sold at
Messrs. Hodgson's rooms in Chancery
lane for JG90 a few days ago. Mach-
llnia and Lettou his partner were the
first printers In London and the for-
mer had his press In Holborn.

Lyric Soprano with Thavlu's Band
at the Oklahoma State Fair and Expo-
sition Sept. 224o Oct. 3 1914.
Versatility is really ono of the great
features of this organization of forty
musicians.
"Yes that would he" assented Sa-
die. "I think perhaps I would pre or
tho sea trip to Bermuda. They say
that you can have a wonderful timo
there it you go to ono of tho houses
in tho country where they take visit-
ors and then hire a bicycle and see
tho Island for yourself.
"However I've always wanted to
seo Nova Scotia and that gives you a
lino voyage too. If I do go by sea
would you take Just a suit case or
would you take a steamer trunlc
along? I think one dark suit and a
big coat and two dark waists and one-
dressy waist and "
"How long is your vacation?" asked
Mabel in her practical way.
"Two weeks" said Sadie.
"How much money aro you going-
to spend on your trip?"
"Not moro than twenty-flvo dollars
anyway" said Sadie.
"Well I don't bcllovo you can go-
to Bermuda or Nova Scotia or New-
foundland or "
"Ot course I can't" said Sadie. "I
am only planning my vacation. I al-
ways plan It every year and then I
go spend two weeks with my grand-
mother who Uvea on a farm in Mlllls
Mass. But at least I havo tho fun of
making believe I'm going somewhere
else."
With this vacation confession tho
train stopped and tho girls rolled up
their work and left tho train. Sadie
marched on ahead and as tho ferry-
boat swung out of its dock she looked
longingly down tho harbor and pro-
tended she had decldod on Nova Scotia.
Freak of Minnesota Storm.
After a Minnesota storm a man ap-
peared on tho highway attired in a
chicken coop. The coop had been
blown over his head in such a way
that his arms were pinioned to his
sidcB and he was unable to remove
his "bonnet."

Something Wrong.
Fro mthe office window of tho Eve-
ning Holler In tho gay and brilliant
metropolis the staff funny man
scowlod with vexation. "Oh dear
what can tho matter he?" ho sighed.
"I had my grist sot up in 17 different
styles and sizes of typo today and
still it len't humorous."
Means of Approach.
Though I am not a smoker I like to
carry matches in my pocket. Ono is
xlways liable to to be accosted on the
itreet by some one in need ot a light.
To bo able to give a match is a great
luxury. It forms the basis for a mo-
mentary friendship. S. M. Crothers

Really is No Waste Matter.
Scientists and business men aro
both beginning to understand :hat in
reality there is no such thing as
waste matter. Tho existence of what
we call waste or refuse Is due mere-

method oMurnlng It into dollars and
