DISCARDED WIFE MOURNS SUIGIDE Mrs. Bernand Says Husband Wes Deserving of Chance Buperlor, Wis,, Jan. 8.—Although her hysband transerred his aflec- tlons to another and threatened her lite, Mrs. I, X. Bernard, divorced wife of ¥, X, Bernard, who shot and wounded Miss Laura Palmer, uni- versity of Wisconsin Instructress, and then killed himself at Madison, would have returned to the father of her children had she known he contemplated taking his life. “If T had known what he was go- ing to do that, T would have gone back with him to Hibbing," said Mrs. Bernard today. “I.am not sure 1 would have gone back to him at onte. T probably would have given him a year to turn dver a new leaf, and prove that he was worthy of an- other chance.” Reasons For Tragedy Madison, Wis, Jan, 8.—Bellet that frenzy, resulting from fruitiess efforts to reestablish friendship with Miss Laura Palmer, University of Wisconsin instructor, caused F. X. Bernard, to shoot and seriously wound the woman and take his own life here yesterday, was expressed today by Philllp La Follette, district attorney. . Letters found in Bernard's pock- ets, the district attorney said, sup- ported this opinion. The tragedy oc- curred in the FreMth house, resl- dence of women students of French, of, which Misy Palmer was chaper- one, The céntributing factors which actuated Bernard, former chemist of Hibbing, Mion, and a student of I'rench, howdver, remained unclear, the prosecutor added. “There are indicatiohs that at one time a very strong friendship exigt- ed between Miss Palmer and Ber- nard,” he said. “From the evidence, there was a break in their relations and the shooting was apparently due to the fallure of the man's efforts to reestablish the former friendship” One theory of investigating officers is that Beenard had tried to per- suade the girl to marry him and that the shooting resulted from her rejection. While Miss Palmer was reported at the hospital today to be resting comfortably, it was said that her condition would not permit ques- tioning. Couldn't Marry Him | Migs Palmer, during semi-con- scious moments, gave an indication of the caunse of the shooting when sne moaned: “I couldn’t love him-— 1 couldn't make up my mind to marry him. He wanted me to marry him and I wouldn't,” accordy ing to repoits from the hospital. Authoritics said today that fur- ther investigation indicated that the shooting might be the cuimination of u series of rejections of the ma n's plea that Miss Palmer marry him, The first rebuff came, they said, when Miss Palmer met his fifteen year old daughter and exclaimed: 1 hever could be a mother to so old rl” 5 chng the letters found in Ber- nard's effects at Hibbing were sev- eral addressed to “gweetheart” and sometimes signed “Laura.” O(h'rf Lore the signatur aura Palmer.

The law re- quires that all accounts be kept either In English, Spanish or Philip. pine dlalect. ' Operations of the law was sus- pended two years ago. Then the su- preme court granted a temporary in- Jjunction agalnst its enforcement. The Chinese claim enforcement of the law will drive out of business many thousands of small Chinese mer- chants who cannot afferd to employ foreign bookkeepers. i The Chinese allege the law vio- Iates the sonstitution ¢f the United States and ‘provisions of the Jones law. It is alleged that the Chinese pay sixty per cent of the taxes of the Philippines. TELL OF NUISANGE IN $5000 ACTION Wilson Street Neighbors to Air| Their Gffievances in Court Suit for $5,000 on nuisance charges has been brought against 8imon R. Schaefer and Isadore Gel- slnger by John Bkarmulis and wife, Agnes Skarmulis. The plaintiffs| claim that they are the owners of a' house and lot at 43 Wilson street and that the defendants erected a woodehed on the adjoining property | in 1918, the building jutting over In-| to the land owned by the plaintiffe. They also claim that water from th slanting roof of a barn on the d fepdants’ property runs off into theirs, They further allege that MAY THREATENS T0 COLLECT DAMAGES Wants Action on Application Be- fore Building Commission The waye of opposition to alleged use of portions of the zoning ordi- nance before it becomes effective, is rapidly growing more and more pronounced and today legal action s threatened by ex-Alderman Charles May unless speedy actlon is taken on an application made by him some time ago. The former alderman wishes to bulld a store on Shuttle Meadow avenue, Several months ago he made application for a permit but a remonstrance flled by residents of the neighborhood resulted in the permit being held up. Later: the remonstrants withdrew their objec- tions and May flled a new applica- tion. Definite action has mot been taken, The zoning ordinance and maps will not be ready for action for scv- eral months, but in the meantime no building permits are being jssued without first consulting the proposed zone maps and if the building is not of the type allowed under the pro- posed map in the neighborhood in which it is to be bullt, the applica- tion is usually denied, it is said. City officials and others cognizant of the situation have objected and eomplained, the opposition even reaching the common couneil cham- ber when Councilman Arthur N. Rutherford made known his objec- tion to the present mode of issuing pérmits. In a letter to the building com- mission, May has requested speedy action on his application, - writing he has been advised he can collect damages for the fallure of that board to take his application from the table.
