NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The condition of Edna Wallace Hovper, who is serious- ly 1l at her home, 23 West Thirty-third Street, remains unchanged. Inguiry by a | Call correspondent at her residence to- night met with the response that Mrs. Hopper was still in a very precarious | condition. An operation for peritonitis may be per- formed to-morrow, although it is by no means certain that she will be ready for such an ordsal.

Dr. Ledlie Culbert, in attendance upon | Mrs. Hopper, says he thinks she will re- cover, after the operation, but dnnounces there 15 no denying the fact she Is a very sick woman. Telegrams of inquiry poured into .the house all day and many personal friends called, none of whom were admitted to the patient’s room. i WOMEN ENIDY MOTOR BRIVING Show Skill in Handling the Auto and Some of Them Make Good Speed Records S el 1 LONDON, Nov. 11.—Mr. and@ Mrs. Am- | brose Clark, who are entertaining a large | party of American friends for the hunting | season at Torrie Lodge, their shooting bex near Leamington, in Warwickshire, came to London recently to look up a res | ldential flat, so that they mily be able to |divide their time between London and the country. Mis, Clark appears to be as fearless a motor driver asgshe is a rider | to hounds. She motored all the way to town and did the hundred miles In three | bours and thirty minutes, disregarding | the warnings of the various policemen she encountered on the way. | The growing ipdulgence by women in | motoring, golf and other forms of exer- letse In which the wind- is a disturbing | element has led to a great increase in the juee of hair nets, transformations and even wigs, by means of which the fair devotees of outdoor life prevent their own halr from getting badly ‘‘mussed.” Fash- ionable femininity has been shocked by the discovery that death may lurk in | these devices. That is.due to the death from anthrax of a man in Bradford whe opened wholesale consighments of Rhair. The hair, it:applars, comes in the form of pigtails from China in 1000-pound lots. d there is no security that any partie. lar pigtail has net been cut from the head ¢f a Chinaman who had not died of | the plague. The wonderful coiffure that, “never turpms gray'' as my lady speeds along In her automobile, scientists tell us, | may disseminate death-dealing germs. But women will continue to run any risks in order to look their prettiest at all times. For the first time since her marriage the Crown Princess of Germany has stood as sponsor to one of her future subjects. It was a very humble little subject, whose father is a rallway navvy near the Rhine. The poor man on the advent of a seventh daughter plucked up courage and wrote his request to the Princess, being encour- ed by the fact that the Kaiser is al- ways willing to be godfather to any sev- enth boy baby in the land. Her Imperial Highness immediately apswered through her “kammerherr,” Count Bismarck- Bohlen, but ske wished the baby to be called after her husband as well as her- self. So the lucky infant was nameil Ce- cilia Wilhelma, and has been the re- cipient of a beautiful silver mug with the imperial crown, while the parents have had a goodly sum eof money sent them. All the efforts of the Kaiser to make his heir a capable yachtsman have failed. Like all the members of the im- for yachting and to race at the regattas, | but he has never distinguished himself as a prize winner. It jsn't in him to become a first-class amateur skipper. Of horses he is passionately fond, and the Crown Princess is equally enthusiastic in matters equestrian. Afded by her money, for she Is wealthy in her own right, he is fixing up hjs stables in grand style. The number of horses which they will jointly own is to be increased to. sixty, each of them a flawless specimen of its kind. Like her husband, the Erincess is fond of driving wandem, for which amusement she keeps a superb pair‘of coal black steeds. She drives, too, a four-in-hand in splendid style; indeed, many people think her a better whip than the Prince. Although it is strictly against' Moham- medan religion to photograph or make any plcture of a human being, the prohl- bition does not extend to landscapes, and the Sultan of Turkey therefore has given no offense to the faithful by his recent purchase of thé most expensive photo- graphic camera ever manufactured. The metal work is of solid gold, while the parts usually made of wood are of Ivory and the be#lows is of white morocco lined with black plush, This is carried in a white morocce case baving a lock of solid gold. The entire outfit cost $5000, aJthough the camera takes a picture only four by five inches. Although he is adccompanied by a professional photographer, the Sul- tan does not profit by the advice of his instructor, and he is already growing tired of his costly toy, since he has mot yet succeeded Tn obtaining a good photo- | graph with it. ——— Special Ferry-Bont for Autos. Members of the Automobile Club of Cnm‘rnm have been notified .7 A. J. Frey, the secretary, that a special schedule will be in effect to-day for the boats of the Creek ronte, which will start from San Franeisco at 7:30. 9 and 10:30 a. m. and from Oakland at 5, 6:30, 8 and 9:30 p. m.

Offenders are to be fined 30 marks, nine quailities. With black cap on head, a British Judge has solemnly proneunced sentence of death on an old woman for the mut'der of her husband, whom she did not murder, and to com- plete the farcical tragedy a British chaplain has solemnly Invoked the mercy of God on her “gullty soul” which was not guilty. And @ll this with full knowledge that she 'did not commit the crime for which She was convicted and that she will never be hanged for it. In a condemned cell, the aged victim of legal cruelty, whose sad plight has evoked expressions of deepest symph- thy from all classes, is awalting the exercise of the crown's prerogative of mercy. After a brief period impris- onment she will probably be, released to eke out what remains of her wretch- ed existence branded as a murderess. Judge and jury are agreed that she should never have been convicted. But they had no other recourse than to con- form to an antiquated law. HER PITIFUL STORY. Mrs. Marfan Seddon’s story is one of the most pitiful that has ever been told in the grim Old Bailey Court. She was 65 years’old and her husband was 783, They had been married twelve years, After their marringe they started a confectionery shop at Staines. ' For a time they were fairly successful. Then trade fell off and they jnoved tp a Shop in Mortlake. There things went from bad to worse. The husband's health failed. When quarter day came round they had not money enough to pay the rent. Death or the workhouse seemed to be the only alternative open to them and they chose death, but the husband alone found it. % “We docided,” sald Mrs. Seddon at the inquest on his body, “that we had better both leave this world together.” After passing u sleepless might worry- ing over their lot black despair gripped | her. “I can't stand this any longer,” she’ said to her husband. Rising from the | bed she went to a cupboard and took from it a bottle containing a liniment composed of beHadonna and dconite, | which had been used to relieve her hus- l band's pain. It was marked ‘poison.” She drank half its contents. Then she | sgld to her husband: T is nothing for us but this or the workhouse.. Are You Eoing to take your share?” “Yes,” replied t:c man, and snatching the bottle from his wife’s hands hei drained what remained of the poison. ! Mrs, Seddon then sought her sister- in-law, who lived in the same house, told her what they had done, and be- sought her to see to it that they were saved the ignominy of pauper burial. Then she returned to the bed and lay Grew Little ter of Dr. E.
