———t THE EVENING BRIDE STABS MAN . AND RUNS FOR AID Chicage Butcher Knife Victim Tells Police 19-Year-0ld Wife Did Not Mean It. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, February 18.—A bride of Seven months plunged a butcher knife into the breast of her husband early yesterday and then ran screaming for help, that he might not die. = Monte Tennes, 2d, 26 years old, whose uncle of the same name, is a power in a syndicate for dissemination of race track information, had quarreled with his 19-year-old wife over “practically nothing.” “Mont and 1 had gone to a party at a friend’s,” Mrs. Tennes told police, “and I giess we had tpo many drinks. nd I guess we had too many drinks. hen we got home early yesterday morning we started to quarrel. . “I insisted that we retire and Monty sat down and began to read. We quar- | reled some more and I ran to the kitchen, got a butcher knife and rushed at Monty. I must have been crazy. Monte grabbed me and we tussled; then he went limp and gasped.” The condition of Tennes was critical today. His left lung had been punc- tured. Police went to the Tennes apartment after a call by the apartment house manager, found Tennes stretched out on a couch, weak from loss of blood, with Mrs. Tennes kneeling beside him, crying and wringing her hands. Tennes refused for several hours to tell what had happened, and gave his story only after he was shown a signed statement by his wife. “Let_her go,” he implored officers. "Slhc didn’t mean it. T'll never ‘prose. cute.” 70 JUNIOR LEAGUERS ARRIVE HERE TODAY ‘Wife of Senator Edge to Greet Delegates to Association’s Regional Conference.

Cardinal Assails Menace of Wealth In Hands of Vain Self-Made Plutocrats AmongWorst Evils, Bos- | ton Gathering Is Told. By the Associated Press. | BOSTON, February 18—William Cardinal O'Connell yesterday described “self-made plutocrats” and those with the “vanity of wealth” as among the worst menaces which this country could produce. The cardinal spoke before the St. Vincent de Paul Society at a com- munion_ breakfast here. | “Because these wealthy have made a ! fortune,” he says, “they grow in such | silly vanity as to be literally a menace, | and the greater the wealth, the greater | the menace. One of the worst evils which America can produce, and at times has produced, is the so-called self- | made plutocrat. “Such a man, without training and | education, without a human tradition, | with only a sneer for the poor and in- competent, with a conceit that grows until it becomes a bloated monster, which feeds on its own vanity and self- | conceit, is, unless by a miracle, beyond | the reach even of the grace of God.” The cardinal declared that the atti- | tude of these rich toward money, which | they considered the chief value of life, made them mainly responsible for Bol- | shevism and Communism, Such doctrines, he said, placing st preme importance on the economic side of life, were only the natural outcome of the example and practices of the “heartless rich.” During a recent pet show in London | sne Pekinese lunched off grapes and had a dainty portion of chicken put into | his mouth with a silver fork | | | | For colds, grip and flu talgl otal:s TRADE MARK REG Relieve:' the ul:ngeshon, prevents complicati and hastens recovery, Rock, Slide or Slip? | Fasteeth, a new, greatly improved | powder to be sprinkled on upper or ower plates, holds false teeth firm and comfortable.’ Can not slide, slip. rock or pop-out.
