Beach, prominent business man. will bo placed on trial here tomorrow, charged with assault and battery with Intent to kill his wife. Camilla Morse Havemeyer Beach. Mrs. Beach is ex pected to be the principal witness for the defense, for she has steadfastly maintained she was not attacked by her husband. Prosecutor R. Gunter declared to night he had a prima facie case against Beach, but the large array of lawyers the latter has mustered in his defense expressed confidence in their ability to establish their client's innocence. Myatrrloua Wltoru Summoned. Among eight witnesses subpenacd by the prosecution is said to be a mysteri ous unnamed person who is reported to have overheard a conversation between Beach and his wife in the Mayor's of fice Just before Beach was arrested. As far as Is now known, only three witnesses will be put on the stand by the defense. Sirs. Beach probably will be the first; Miss Marion Hollins, of New York, who was a guest at the Beach home here the night of the Assault, is expected to be a - witness. and Beach probably will take the stand himself. The assault on Mrs. Beach was com mitted on the night of February 26, J912. Someone struck her on the head with a heavy instrument and inflicted a Jagged gash in her throat, apparently with a pocket-knife. Beach was ar rested April 8, charged with the assault, the police contending he had attacked his wife after he had failed to catch "a white man in a gray suit who fled at his approach. Girl Sees "Man In Gray." Prosecutor Gunter, by consent of counsel, took today the testimony of Miss Lellah Wyman, who is too ill to appear as a witness. Miss Wyman. the daughter of a physician who lives across the street from the Beach home, is alleged to have seen the "man in stray" running away about the time of the assault. Counsel for the defense waived ob jection to the Introduction of the re port of Boyden Mims, a chemist who examined Beach's pocket-knife. In his report Mimg said that. In his opinion, several spots found on a broken blade were blood corpuscles. Under the laws of the state the punishment for assault with Intent to kill is from 30 days to ten years in the state penitentiary, -with the alternative of a fine or both.

Johns, a physician, was at tacked in his office this afternoon by Herman Guttchick, a discharged janitor, who attempted to cut her throat and then committed suicide by cutting his own throat.

Bradley, Who left in Fit of Jealousy Five Years Ago, Sleets 'Oregon Rose' In South; Explanations Soon Follow. LOS ANGELES. Cal., Feb. S. (Spe clal.) Miss Rose Graham, the "Oregon Rose" they call her In the neighborhood of her home, Pendleton, Is one of the prettiest girls connected with the Los Angeles Rodeo. She is also the nap piest miss this side of the Canadian border today, and the reason for Miss Graham's happiness is revealed in a little romance that had its beginning some years ago up in the cattle coun try near her Oregon birthplace. . Tears ago Miss Graham and Thomas C. Bradley, now a business man of Vancouver, B. C were sweethearts their fathers owned adjoining ranches near Pendleton, and It was accepted that some day the young persons were to marry. No cloud appeared on their horizon until one day, nearly five years ago, a rather attractive stranger ap peared in their neighborhood, and Miss Rose looked with rather too friendly eyes upon him, at least Young Bradley thought so. Without even confiding his plan to the elusive "Rose," he sought a new field that might ease an aching heart. He found it in the newer Canadian country, and today he Is a successful business man in Vancouver. Two weeks ago Bradley started on a vacation trip through Southern Cali fornia, first coming to Los Angeles. Remembering that several old cowboy friends were to ride in the Rodeo, he went to the Stadium this morning, and there it was that he again met Miss Graham. . Explanations of the past, promises of the future, and then a . tenderer promise-which has to do with the wed ding bells to come. Following their wedding here at the close of the Rodeo, Mr. and Mrs. Bradley will spend part of their honeymoon in a horseback ride to Pendleton for a brief visit to the homes of their parents. They will make their future home in Vancouver, B. C. EXAM ON AT OREGON U FTRST SEMESTER CLOSED FRI DAY, SECOND OPENS MONDAY. Usual Number of "Flunkers" May Be Surpassed This Year When Records Are Made Out. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Or., Feb. 3. (Special.) Examination week," combining the terrors of the Inquisition, the Reign of Terror, and other dark chapters of history, in the eyes of college students, are in prog ress this week at - the linlverslty of Oregon. The first semester closed last Friday, and the second will begin next Monday. Meanwhile, the students will be quizzed on the knowledge they have acquired during the past four and one- half months. While the general examinations start ed today, the large freshmen classes in English were put through the ordeal Saturday morning. This is one of thb few subjects in the university curricu lum required of all Btudents in the col lege of liberal arts. Two years must be passed in the study of their native lan guage toy all candidates for a degree in this college. As a result, almost every freshman- in the present class of nearly 300 took the beginning course in rhet oric and presented himself for the ex amination Saturday. Atthough it is not yet known how the students have fared thus far, it is predicted that there will be more than the usual number of "flunkers" this year. This is because of the tendency of the faculty toward greater string ency in their scholarship requirements. A student may take no more than 16 hours of recitations or lectures per week, and if he fails to "pass" In nine of these hours be cannot return to col lege the next semester. The second such failure bars him from re-entrance at any time. Last February the faculty put. into operation the "Missouri grading' sys tem. ' with the purpose of raising the standard of scholarship at the Univer sity. This system provides that an in structor must maintain a certain pro portion between the students who are "passed" and those who are "flunked in any class over a period of years. This means that a certain percentage of students is foreordained to "get the ax." The rule Is aimed at the so-called "pipe" courses, which have become pop ular with the students because failures were rare in them. The longer courses, consisting of those in which classes are held three, four or five times a week, will be ex amined first. Thursday and Friday the one and two-hour courses will occupy the schedule. The grades for the se mester will be issued to the students Monday, February 10. Until last year all examinations were three hours in length. However, last February the time was shortened to two hours. The change proved advan tageous and probably will remain a fix ture. It is claimed the students do better work when the examination Is not so long and exhausting, while the instructors are still given plenty of opportunity to test their knowledge. Registration for the new semester will take place Monday, February 10. As was the case last February, any student who is dilatory and registers later than that day must forfeit t2 for the privilege. Actual class work will begin Tuesday. Register Tiffany esti mates that about 3d new students will enter college at this time. Those who will leave at the end of the present semester, combined with those who are automatically dropped, will, however, very nearly balance this number, so that the registration will not show any great variance from that of last se mester. ROSEBURG GIRL FOUND AGNES MANNION SAYS HER MIND SUDDEN!; Y BECAME BLANK. On Way to Church Seuses Are Lost Jind in Wilds of Dawson's Canyon Consciousness Is Restored. ROSEBURG, Or., Feb. 3. (Special.) "I have seen pictures of women lost in the mountains in moving picture shows, but never did I entertain sus picion that I would be subjected to such a terrible experience," was the declaration of Agnes Mannion, when found In Dawson's Canyon, three miles east of Roseburg, early today.

GIRL WELL KNOWN IN CITY Breakdown Believed by Friends to Be Due to Overstudy.
