Her husband, Gilbert Robertson, uiid little son, arrived last night. He is a wealthy farmer at Panama and '\as greatly shocked by the turn of affairs, but maintains reticence re garding his wife. Mrs. Robertson Is closely guarded and n« one hut the attending physi cian and the hospital forcemre allowed to see her. She has refused to make i any state ment regarding the affair with the counterfeit gang. The gun with which she shot her self belongs to W. S.

The Tactful Prince. What Is “Well Bom?** By ARTHUR BRISBANE V_/ The Loeb-Leopold case Is over, all but the sentence. The repre sentative of the state closed with the appeal “Hang these rats.” The judge orders stricken from the record as grossly impertinent and insulting part of the public prosecutor’s speech. It was cer tainly “red hot” to put it mildly. The man who made it is about to run for public office again. On September 10 the judge will decide. It was new in court procedure when the judge denounced the ar gument of the state’s attorney as a “cowardly, dastardly attack upon the integrity of the court and an attempt to intimidate it.” The state’s attorney had talked of the power of money in the murder case, and appealed from the bench to the mob, saying: “If they—the young murderers—don’t get what they deserve in this trial, I am not so sure they won’t hear the cry of the mob.” - The public is not quite so sure about it either, but it is not a pleasant subject for discussion in open court. Will Hays, representing the super-moral end of the movies, talkiflg common sense to moving picture advertisers yesterday, urged them to leave out of their an nouncements all appeals to the “immoral” side of human nature. Mr. Hays might have said of such advertising in the language attributed to Talleyrand, that “it is worse than a crime—it is a blun der.” Immorality does not pay. Hays showed that the moving picture is the American product. This country has 6 per cent of the earth’s population, 40 per cent of its steel and iron business, more than 60 per cent of its gold, 80 per cent of the total automobile business of the world, and 90 per cent of the moving picture busi ness. Ninety per cent of those that see moving pictures want to be en tertained decently. Those that provide the other entertainment will lose their money in the end. The young prince of Wales might have made a successful career on his own hook. He has tact, the keystone to the arch of success. Reporters wired from the ship that he had danced with a young St. Louis girl whom he had never met. When the news was sent back to the ship by wireless, the prince requested an introduction to the young woman and danced with her twice. Scientists, students of eugenics, welfare workers and others, includ ing the brilliant author of the “New Decalogue of Science,” are much worried about human breeding, and the future of the race. “The well born refuse to breed, and the ill born insist on breeding too much,” say these anxious worriers. It all depends on what you call well born. The fortunate child is born of a mother that wants chil dren, and the ill born from a mother that does not want chil dren. — Time, evolution, gradual lifting up of the frontal angle, and public schools will take care of the human race, if the babies get the right start. The right start begins in a mother’s affection for the father of her children. Without that, pity | the child. With that, everything else can be straightened out. What | heat is in the making of steel, af fection is in the creation of chil dren. ( There are great power and profit possibilities in an absolute monopoly, such as the government postoffice. Two days ago Mr. New, postmaster general, placed a con tract fbr 12,000,000,000 stamped envelopes and wrappers. These supplies cost the postoffice $5,000, 000. Their sale at an average of 2 cents, will bring in $240,000,000. When the people own and man age their own monopolies, learning from Rockefeller that competition is stupid and costly, this prosperous country will begin its real pros perity. — Mr. Larson, president of the Nebraska Real Estate Boards as sociation, says farm lands have jumped up in price. More Ne braska lands will be sold in the next 90 days than in the past five years. Prices will be higher everywhere. That’s good news for Coolidge. It seems that “Margery,” highly successful spiritualistic medium of Boston, could not do “her stuff” in a special locked box arranged by Houdini, the magician. In an other box, of her own construction, bells rang, spirit brought messages about papa and mama and all went well. The radio or telephone would have worked in Houdini’s box. The i spirits are more sensitive. The Tuchuns have seized Chinese ( railways in the Chekiang Kiangsu provinces. Chi Shieh-Yuan, mili tary governor, will fight to get | them back. American and British warships are hurrying to the scene. Censorship has been established. | Civil war will soon be raging, and so it goes.
