It was said yesterday that when Mr. Bryan received this information he de cided not to deliver the speech he had prepared, and spoke along different lines. President Charles H.

May 22 Justice Blackmar. in the Suprfeme Court, denied decree of separation asked by Mrs. Julia S. Whitson. The court, however, directed that Frank I Whitson, of Am ityvllle, the husband, continue to pay his wife J10 a week, as ordered by Jus tice Kapper in Brooklyn some weeks ago. The Whitsons are both young. They have lived at Aniityville for some years. They were married in Washington. D. C., in April. 1908. For years they lived at the rate of $15,000 a year. It was tes tified; had two yachto, two automobiles, a houseful of servants, and entertained on an extensive scale. Whitson testified today that his income was now $1300 a year, and what he made as manager of a traveling carnival. Mrs. Whitson claimed her husband deserted her several times and failed to support her and their young son. She testified that he had been cruel in that he had reached home in November last intoxicated and flourishing a revolver. She said that in January she was left without fuel and had to pawn jewelry and clothing to obtain money. Her hus band, she asserted. had squandered J250.000 which he received from his father-s estate. The income which her husband has, she said, came from a trust fund made for him by his mother: Whitson In his own behalf admitted much that his wife said. He said that when his money was gone, he obtained the position he now,, has, but his wife refused to accompany him on his. trins. Each time that she charged he deserted her he had gone on the road, he said. He had been home up to February b and left on a business trip. The action was begun February 9. He had visited nis wne since the case had been begun. TAILOR GIVES AWAY $200 TWO STRANGERS ASK HIM CARRY 97000 FOR THEM. "TO St. Lonls Mas, Easy Prey to an Old Scheme.

Two things of interest in relation to the visit of Secretary of State Bryan to Brooklyn were revealed recently. The one was that Mr. Bryan, because of a mistake on his part, did not deliver the speech he had intended to make, and the other was that he received only $15 for his appearance. This should not be taken to eman that the Secretary of State is cutting rates as to his lectures, for he really asked nothing 'and was paid nothing for the address he made at ST. LOUIS. May 22.

Then . the pack age was turned over to him with in structions that he place it inside his shirt and not open it until he got home. "We'll meet you at Sixteenth and Franklin." said the stranger. Oh. sure, the package contained strips of green wallpaper and the $200 of real money was missing. So were the strangers when Krstik ran frantically back to the corner to explain that some mistake had been made.

Spectrograms, like the r,A.Hn,A ot automobiles, indicate at once the speeds of bodies, but the nebulae are so faint, most of them being Invisible to the unaided eye. that only with the most powerful telescopes may spectro grams be obtained of them.

After suffering for 15 years with acute stomach trouble and rheumatism, Henry Bramer. a brick and tile worker residing at 253 Front street. Portland, has found relief by taking Akoz, the new California medicinal mineral. Not only has he had relief from ' his dis tressing ailments, but he has felt the exceptional tonic effects of Akoz. and now rests and eats well and has ban ished that tired feeling. "I was troubled with a. bad stomach and rheumatism for about 15 years," said Mr. Bramer. "In that time I spent a great deal of money for remedies and doctors, but without much benefit until I tried Akoz. I am now getting along very satisfactorily after taking Akoz six weeks. I feel better, I don't have that tired feeling; I eat and sleep well and I take more interest, in things gen erally. I intend to keep on taking Akoz for a time yet. as I believe it will be only a short time now until I am entirely as good as ever." Akoz Is a harmless mineral thai is proving very effective in the treat ment of rheumatism, stomach, kidney, bladder and liver troubles, diabetes, Bright's disease, eczema, catarrV piles, ulcers and other ailments. J; is na ture's own remedy and is succeeding in numberless cases where physicians ant other remedies have failed.
