TLLS OWN STORY
Brouwer's Version of Wife's
Last Illness.
OVER-EATING IS FATAL
Denies Woman Furnished Home and
Says Never Sought Divorce Ad
mits Injection ol Strychnine
J"ight Before Death.
TOMS RIVER, K. J-. Oct. 15. IW
Frank Brouwer, charged with the mur
der of his wife by poison, testified In his
own defense today. He told of his strug
gles In educating himself for the medical
profession, of his marriage to Miss Hyer
July 1, 1W, and of the financial relations
between he and his wife. Ail the money
that went into their home, he said, he
earned. He went into an account of Mrs.
Bronwer's last Illness and the measures
taken to give her the care of physicians
and a trained nurse.
Brouwer said he was obliged to go to
Lakehurst on a professional call and
felt safe in leaving, as Mrs. Brouwer
was in competent hands. While in Lake
hurst he was told over the telephone that
his wife was worse and he hastened to
her. The night of September 16 Mrs.'
Brouwer had several convulsions and the
witness telephoned for Dr. Forman. of
Freehold, who. however, was unable to
come- until the following day. Mean
time, the witness said he had been obliged
to leave his wife in order to attend an
other patient.
Mrs: Bronwer's Hearty Meal.
Dr. Brouwer testified that at dinner the
night before Mrs. Brouwer was taken
ill she ato canned soup and corn, meat
and potatoes, cottage cheese, bread and
butter and watermelon and drank some
beer. Late that night, he said, Mrs.
Brouwer also ate three onion sandwiches
and drank a cold bottle of beer and just
before she went to bed she also ate a
large piece of cold watermelon.
Ir Brouwer defended his diagnosis of
his wife's Illness as Bright's disease by
saying that Dr. Forman and a firm of
New Turk chemists, after analyzing the
fluid from Mrs. Brouwer's body, also re
ported that she suffered from Bright's
disease.
"Why did you say to the nurses that
your wife might not get well?"
"Because I did not think she would.
Her heart action was irregular all
through her sickness."
Gave Strychnine Injection.
Dr. Brouwer said that he administered
to his wife a hypodermic injection pre
pared by a Philadelphia firm. It con
tained strychnine and nitroglycerine. He
said that his wife Immediately became
calmer and her heart became more reg
ular and stronger. Dr. Brouwer said that
on the last night of his wife's illness he
gave her brandy and one-twentieth of a
grain of strychnine. He testified that he
never gave any arsenic to his wife: that
he never gave strychnine to his wife ex
cept In the one Instance, the night be
fore she died; that he never put powdered
glass in his wife's food: that he never
did anything to cause his wife's death.
Dr. Brouwer denied that his wife was
ever jealous, although she sometimes
spoke about women who visited his office
and after they had gone she would ask
who they were and whet they wanted.
He denied that he ever told anyone tnat
he would get a divorce or that he ever
heard his wife say she would apply for
a divorce.
Death Due to Over-Eating.
The witness said that his wife's sick
ness, in his opinion, was the result of
over-eating and was not caused by im
pure food. He thought that a too hearty
meal had produced cholera morbus.
Dr. Brouwer said the Insurance on his
wife's life had not been collected.
On redirect examination Dr. Brouwer
testified that he never said anything Im
proper to Miss McClenahan and had never
nny appointment with her previous to
the time he had engaged her and after
ward. He said he had not only consented
to the exhumation of his wife's body,
but had even urged that it be taken up
and an autopsy performed.
At Vaudeville Theaters
The Star.
Once again "The Two Orphans." that
perennial favorite which age seems
powerless to wither and custom unable
to stale, is offered the local public.'
This time It la the Allen Stock Com
pany which presents the great old
melodrama, and it Is done so well that
traditions are in nowise violated. , Its
revival was a happy thought on the
part of the management. There is no
stage of the theatrical game when
"The Two Orphans" Is not safely to be
relied upon to draw patronage.
The Allen company presents its best
effort in the old piece. Verna Felton
Is delightful in the role of "Louise,"
the blind girl, touching greater heights
and depths than she has done in any
of her previous work. Henry McRea
gives the most complete satisfaction
as the "Chevalier." and Mr. Ashley's
"Jacques" Is far and away the best
thing he has given us.
Other members of the cast leave lit
tle to be desired in their parts, and
with the excellent mounting the play
is given It Is sxfe to say that local
patrons will seldom have an oppor
tunity to see "The Two Orphans" pre
sented In a better manner. It will be
the bill all week.
Pant ages.
A mechanical man contributes the
sensation at Pantages this week. It
Is really a wonderful piece of mechan
ism, which performs exactly as a man,
puzzling the keenest observer as to
its real nature. It Is only a machine,
but such a wonderful one that the
spectator leaves the theater after see
lug It with wonder and surprise that
such a thing could be the work of
mere invention.
The comedy sketch of Hart and
OT'ell Is laughable and unique. It
keeps the audience in an uproar of
laughter whenever it is presented. The
Preston Sisters have a juvenile change
set which scores heavily here, as it
has done elsewhere. Raymond Merritt
has few equals ns a single-ha.noe.1 fun
maker and Is well worth hearing. A
striking and noteworthy number on
the programme Is that contributed by
Beatrice Lome, known as "the Scottish
nightingale." whosA rendition of popu
lar songs and old-time ballads is a
rare treat.
Leo White is slinging a new Illus
trated song. "Ain't You Coming Back
to Old New Hampshire. Molly?" so
well that it is likely to become quite
p. fad among followers of up-to-dato
oongs. The rlctures are new and un
usually Interesting.
The Grand.
It ha been several weeks since the
Grand haa offered its audiences a more
satisfying vaudeville bill than that which
opened the week at the popular house
yesterday. It takes rank with the best
em seen here and the management may
be pardoned for taking some pride in it.
The feature act le given by the Berrys,
a company of acrobats who have at
tracted considerable attention wherever
they have appeared. The quintet does
some marvelous stunts and its reception
left no doubt aa to its popularity with the
audience.
The hit made by this turn is rivaled by
that scored by Tom Eck and Lillian Chick
in their hazardous act which they call
"Leap the Loop." It Is a novelty in
local vaudeville circles in the extreme.
John Byrne doeo a clever monologue turn,
his etoiies being fresh and amusing.
A sprightly little skit. "Married Life."
is presented by the Cliff Dean Company.
Claire is an operatic soloist of superior
attainments and the comedy singing
sketch given by sthe Margaret Newton
Company is very good. Harold Hoff has
a pleasing song and the moving pictures
hold the attention.
The Lyric.
The Lyric is becoming quite a preten
tious place of amusement with its new
balcony, increased seating capacity and
enlarged stage. The stock company has
been strengthened. In keeping with these
improvements and the result is that the
Alder-street playhouse has assumed a
prominent place in local theatricals.
The week which opened yesterday will
become memorable among Its patrons by
reason of the superior attraction offered
in the shape of a rather startling and
absorbingly Interesting melodrama. "A
Mother's Secret." There are plot and
counter plot enough in the piece to stock
a couple of good plays, so "A Mother's
Secret" is "chuck a block" with excite
ment. The comedy element Is not so
pronounced as is the hule . in Lyric
productions but there is enough of it for
seasoning
The two most prominent roles are
played by Frank Fanning and Lily Brans
combe, who appear as two young lovers
working at cross purposes to establish
their Identity and thwart their enemies.
Warda Howard plays the mother very ac
ceptably and Herbert Ashton is good, as
he always is, in the part of a scape
grace who redeems himself. It, is one of
the best bills of the season.
COUNCIL COMMITTEE AYTtES
TLES WITH PROBLEM.
After Several Sessions, No Settlement
of Vexed Question Has Yet
Been Reached.
More work and trouble has been
caused by the proposed ordinance to
govern the stringing of overhead wires
in Portland than by any other measure
which has been taken up by the Coun
cil in months. The ways and means
committee, to which the preparation of
the ordinance has fallen, has been un
able to agree upon a set of specifica
tions to be included, although they
have spent many hours struggling with
it. It was expected to reach an agree
ment at the meeting yesterday after
noon, but the committee was forced
to adjourn without reaching any result
and will take it up soon at a special
meeting to be held at the call of Chair
man Wallace.
Attorney Freeman, for the Linemen's
Union, presented a new ordinance to
the committee yesterday afternoon. It
was a compromise measure, .embody
ing some of the features of the original
measure and also some of the changes
asked by the Portland General Electric
Company. Councilman Bennett ex
pressed himself as favorable to It, but
Councilmen Gray and Rushlight de
sired further changes made.
There are now three principal points
of difference between the Portland
General Electric Company and attor
neys for the union. Attorney Free
man is standing out for a four-foot
space on all poles between arms bear
ing high-power wires, and those carry
ing lower currents. He also asks that
the City Electrician be given power to
inspect the systems and enforce the
changes, and in addition is fighting
for the fixing of one year as the time
limit allowed the companies to make
the change. The companies ask for
two years in which to change their
systems, and also oppose the other two
provisions.
Both sides claim that the points they
are fighting for would make the wiring
more safe for the linemen. On this
point the committee itself is divided.
Many sessions have been held for the
consideration of the ordinance, when
testimony has been received from prac
tical linemen, and arguments from the
various attorneys. The members of the
committee have become so well versed
in the technicalities of electrical wir
ing that it has been proposed all of
the ordinances prepared by the oppos
ing interests be discarded and that the
members of the committee draw up an
entirely new one. This policy may be
finally adopted.
Dan J. Malarkey, who is representing
the Portland General Electric Com
pany, urged yesterday that the com
mittee drop the matter for three weeks.
In the meantime, he said, the company
will try to reach an agreement with
the linemen. He also urged delay for
the reason that the wiring ordinances
of other cities are being collected, and
that Councilman Annand. now in the
East, is making an investigation into
the systems at other places.
Marriage Rite Is Easy
to Young Couple
Young Couple Think Trying Ordeal
Is Accomplished When License Is
Secured.
T WAS ihe first time that Bartll and
Christine had ever stood under the
big red wedding bell in the County Clerk's
office. They knew very well why they
were there, but were too timid to tell
their mission. They Just stood and looked
and wondered. At last Deputy County
Clerk F. G. Wilde happened along.
"Something I can do for you?" he asked.
"We want a license?" was a weak
voiced reply.
"Have you a witness as to the bride's
age?" asked Wilde.
A nod answered the question and the
needed papers were soon made out. Bartll
Gruber. aged 25 years, was given the right
to wed Christine Ouler. aged 21.
The timid, happy couple looked at the
Deputy Clerk in wonderment as h onlck.
ly wrote out the permit. When he handed
it over to the groom-elect. Miss Guler
looked at Gruber for a minute, then put
ting her hand on his shoulder, said: "It
wasn't so hard to get married, after all,
was It?"
When Wilde had managed to swallow
the big laugh that arose within him. he
informed the couple that they were not
in the least bit married as yet. and that
they would have to interview a preacher
or Judge before their two hearts could le
gally beat as one.

KEEP TIE KIDNEYS WELL
Health Is Worth Saving, and
Some Portland People Know
How to Save It.
Marry Portland people take their Kvee
in their hands by negleotlng the kidneys
wben they know these organs need help.
Sick kidneys are reaponaible for a vast
amount of suffering and ill-health, but
there is no need to suffer nor to remain
in danger when all diseases and aches
and pains due to weak kidneys can be
quickly and permanently cured by the
uae of Doan'a Kidney Fills. Here la the
statement of a Portland citizen who has
reclaimed rood health by the use of this
remedy:
H. J. Young, of 29ft4 Morrison street.
Portland. Or., says: "I have had no oo
casicn to use any kidney medicine since
19031 and that is the very reason Why I
can recommend Doan's Kidney Pills so
strongly. This remedy relieved me at that
time of an annoying attack of kidney
complaint which had clung to me for quite
a while, and had become aggravated by a
cold that settled In my back. The relief
was speedy and lasting, and not the
slightest trace of a recurrence has ap
peared during the three years that have
elapsed. I am convinced that this is good
proof of the value of your remedy."
For sale by all dealers. Price 60 cents.
