SHE PLEADS NON-SUPPORT Jjong 1.1st or Fascinating; Garments Owned by Woman Who Says She Has Not Enough Clothes. Problems for Jury. CHICAGO. April 12. Special. It Is up to the Circuit Court, divorce branch, of Chicago, to decide the momentous question of how many and -what sort of clothes a man ahull buy for his wife and be on the safe ride. Mrs. Anna E. Cubley, wifo of Edwin J. Cubloy, a real estate owner and dealer in. the. swell suburb of Ravens wood, who waa sued for divorce on the gTound of desertion, has countered with a cross-bill in which she charges nonsupport. Incidentally Mrs. Cubley 1b 30 years the Junior of her husband. As to the charge of nonsupport, Mrs. Maud Cubley, a dauffhter-ln-law. says Mr. Cubley provided handsomely for his young wife. Slio swears that the follow ing articles, all in good condlton, are now in tho possession of Mrs. Cubley, and that Edwin J. purchased all of them, and many more, which have escaped the invoice. List of Woman's Clothes. One black voile skirt and the drop that goes with it; two or thrco silk petticoats; threo dresser drawers full of lingerie with French embroidery on it; ono tan suit; one broadcloth suit, a very elegant thing, lined with taffeta all the way through; ono dark blue tailormade suit, lined with silk; four or five China silk waists, very pretty and with real lace in them: two or three little dotted Swiss waist; one evening gown of white net over white silk; one little tan applique; thrco feather boas that come to the bot tom of her" dress; more ostrich feathers; eight or nine hats; quite a few little dressing sacques; ono walking skirt; about two dozen pairs of gloves; two Summer dresses; three pairs of shoes; ono diamond ring set with a diamond teardrop; one ring ct with opals and diamonds; one gold bracelet mounted with amethysts and diamonds; ono solid gold pin set with diamonds; ever so many odd pieces. Problems for Judge and Jury. When tho divorce case comes on for trial, if It ever does, two problems man ifestly will confront the court or the jury. These two questions will be para mount: FirstDid Mrs. Cubley get all these things from her husband to havo and to hold, to wear and to show; sec ond, If so, can that be considered a case of nonsupport? In the settlement of this delicate ques tion of how many clothes a woman should have, much will depend upon the personality and connublallty of the Judge, provided It is left to the Judge to decide. But, If the case goes to a Jury, woll, almost any 12 men .could pass on the list submitted above, especially at this season of tho year. SHOWS METTLE OF MEN (Continued Prom Face 1.) fore the palace was heard to confide to a friend as follows: "My daughter, who lives at Torre del Greco, is a refugee. She has been re ceived Into the royal palace, lives like a Princess, and has been spoken to by the Queen. May the saints protect Her Ma jesty." The King dnspectcd all the "camp hos pitals," in which the soldiers are caring for suffering fugitives, speaking to tho in jured, comforting them in their misfor tunes and asking them what ho could do to reliecv their distress. On receiving a reply indicating the suuerer's desire that something immediately be done in his or her behalf, the lKng gave orders to have the desire fulfilled. This gave rise to many heartrending scenes. As the King bent over a poor niHn. with toll-hardened hands, whoso right leg hod been amputated, the suf ferer, replying to His Majesty's question regarding his immediate necessities, said with tears in his eyes: "Send me my son, who is serving as a soldier." The King, who was visibly affected, clasped the man's hand and exclaimed: "My poor fellow, r can do much.- but to grant your request would mean breaking the laws, which I must be the first to rexpect. T would give anything I have were it possible by so doing to send your son to you. but I cannot do so." There were tears in the King's eyes as he turned away from the sorrowing fath er's bedside. The Queen, while the King was away, visited the charitable institu tions here and inspected tho place where the refugees are housed. LAVA COOIiS AND ASITES FALt Staples Recovers From Panic, and Js Cheered by King and Queen. NAPLKS. April 12. Frequent de tonations are still heard on Mount Vesuvius, but faintly. The main crater is gradually enlarging. The most con soling news is that tho lava Is cooling on all sides. Ashes are falling everywhere, houses are collapsing and burying their oc-i-upunts. Roads near the volcano are no sooner opened than they are closed again. The heaviest fall Is now over Somma. Santa Anastasia, Ponticelli Knd other villages in a section opposite and distant from the city. The people have recovered- from the panic of yesterday, are less sullen and downhearted, it is largely due to the presence of the King and Queen. They are mingling freely with the populace, doing everything In their power to alleviate the condition of the Injured and mingling their tears with those who- have lost friends or rela tives. The Inhabitants of this city are en during the yellow gray atmosphere of yesterday, which Is even more oppres sive than before. The popular cos tume of these who can afford it con sists of an automobile coat, cap and goggles, which enables the wearer to maintain a semblance of cleanliness, but the -peeple generally have to be couisnted with. japr mask asd, WOMAN T raised umbrellas. Tse drivers of- trol ley-cars are 'wearing masks of some transparent material under the visors of their caps. More shops -were opened today and the city Is slowly resuming its normal life. In spite of the fact that many govern ment officials have arrived here to rein force the local officers, the congestion of tho telegraph bureaus Is Indescribable. Some extraordinary escapes from death have been recorded. A man and his four children were rescued alter having been lost in the wilderness for S6 hours. They were terribly exhausted, and seemed more like five skeletons than human beings. Firemen have been sent from Palermo, Sicily, and other places to the villages In this vicinity, which have suffered the most from the fall of ashes, to assist in re moving the ashes from the roofs and relieve the exhausted soldiers. Camp kitchens have been established in a number of places, and. free meals are being distributed wherever possi ble to those in need of them. The American steam yacht Xahma. with Mrs. Robert Ooelet and a party of friends aboard, has arrived at Palermo, Sicily. They witnessed the eruption of Mount Vesuvius from Aroalfi. on the Bay of Salerqo. .not far from Naples, and give a vivid description of the scene. A riot occurred at Torre del Annun ziata, due to the closing, of a church considered unsafe. The troops restored order. At Boscatrecar thieves entered some of the houses of the better clashes and stripped them of everything valuable. Birds have completely desertod tho Vesuvius district. Thousands of them died of suffocation. Three French warships arrived to day to express sympathy and render assistance. Rclier Fund in Chicago. CHICAGO, April 12.

UNCLE SAM KNEW OF PLOT REVEL ATI OX OF FILIBUSTERER AGAINST SAN DOMINGO. Jiminez Sought American Aid for Revolt, Offering Samana Bay as Coaling Station. NEW" TORK. April 12. United States Army officers and Government officials were mentioned today in testimony concerning the JS9 Fanlta filibuster ing expedition of General Jiminer. x Presldent of Santo Domingo, which started from Mobile. Ala., and proceed ed to Monte Cristl, Santo Domingo. The testimony was given by Joseph L. Cunningham, who sought in the Su premo Court to recover 125,000 from Jiminez for service which ho claims he rendered to tho expedition. He testified that he offered both Jiminez and General Morales, who was killed in the expedition, to see soveral United States officials and politicians to obtain aid for the filibustered. The real object of the expedition, he said, was the capture of Santo Domingo -with a view of obtaining Samana Bay as a coaling Htatlon'for the United States, a scheme which had been s favorite one of General Grant. Ccn nlngham testified that he had sent in a bill to General Jiminez for $65,0)9. which tho General said he considered was rather largo for what service were really rendered, and offered him $25,000, which, lio said, he never re ceived. Cunningham said he was -not em ployed by the United States Govern ment in securing arms for Jiminez. "Did you Inform the United States Government the real purpose for which the arms were to be used?" "I told the Government they were to bo used to help Jiminez." After further testimony Justice Fltz gerald dismissed the complaint on the ground that one of the conditions of the note, by which it was alleged that Jiminez agreed to pay $25,000 was that payment was conditional upon a regu lar government being established In Santo Domingo by the revolutionary party within two months and that no evidence, had been presented to estab lish that fact.

WrKa'leday Sc s tion of depositors, and the creation of the office of State Bank Examiner, the taxation of state and city franchises? We think not, but these are the questions that concern the people today, and are of vital interest to them. Does anyone suppose that Bourne would spend vast sums of money to elect a legis lative ticket to bring about legislation covering these matters! We think not. Was Bourne ever known to assist legislation at Salem in the people's interest, or was he ever seen at Salem except when a Senator was to be elected? We think not. Docs anyone suppose that Bourne, who is a business partner of Charles E. Ladd, and a golf-player with Adams, Mills and Ainsworth, would favor and assist legislation detri mental to the interests of these men? And does anyone suppose that Keady, of the Bourne slate, depending largely on the 0. W. P. & Ry. Co. for his living, will vote to revoke its franchise, or to compel it to pay a franchise tax? We think not. , Arc Bourne, Keady, Burke, Orton and Coffey to be depended on to give the people relief against the corporation interests? We think not, if we are to judge by their past records. Therefore do not jeopardize your interests by voting for any man on the "Statement No. 1 ticket," which ms the Bourne ring ticket. All this cry about Statement No. 1, which emanates from the Bourne political head quarters, is designed to draw public attention away from the personnel of Bourne's Statement No. 1 ring ticket, for they well konw that should the public learn the true character of his slate, it would go down in defeat.
