Letters telling something of the

reads:

' eeption committee of 60, who will

the attendance of your members at

New York, Jan. 13. Lorlys Eltbn
Roarers, a lawyer of New York City,
who went there from the south many
years ago, is the- central figure in
one of the strangest tragedies crim
inal annals have known. A. woman
who called ' herself Mrs. Ida Rogers,
mother of two of his children, gave
them bichloride of mercury tablets,
and after lingering for some days they
died. She also took a tablet and
hope for her was given up by the
doctors.
At the same time it was learnedif
Rogers was married to a sister of
Prof. Giddings of Columbia Univer- i
sity, perhaps the best known profe3-,
sor in that institution. They lived in
an expensive apartment house in Ne'v i
York. Later jt ' was learned : thut
Rogers was divorced some years ago
and. that his first wife lived in New
York. He has visited her regularly, j
Statements have been made that the
three women were known to , each
other and knew all about Roger's re-1
iations with them, though this 1 has '
teen denied on the part of the pres.
ent wife. ; ..

take such a mere formality to con

the mother or bis children. Pshaw:
The chances are she never noticed tbe
omission. So why should be worry)
But back borne a woman wept wept :
