INSANITY WILL BE
MRS. BRADLEY'S PLEA
BEFOREJU, COURT
Her Two Little Boys Will
Be Mute Witnesses
in Trial.
r
By THEO.DORE H. TILLER.
Washington, Nov.-12.—Realising ful
ly the Importance of the great battle
w hich la to. begtn .tomorrow, wlj^n Mr*.
Annie M. Bradley la to be placed on
trial, charged with the murder of for
mer Senator Brown, of. Utah, In this
city last December, both prosecution
and defense, are putting In the day
quietly familiarising themselves with
tlnal details of the mass of testimony
to be .offered.
Several Sail Lake City witnesses ar
lived In Washington yesterday. Among
tltese is Max Brown, son of tjie dead
senator. In the same party arc D. II.
Wenger. James Rowan. Archibald Liv
ingstone and A. If. Kelly.
Since Insanity and not the unwritten
law is to be the plea, her counsel are
debating whether or not the frail. Ut
ile woman will mount the stand. •
Regardless of this element of the
i rial, however, there Is to be a silent
story told which, after all. may decide
the fate of the woman at the bar. This
is the mute testimony of two little
hoys who are to be by their mother's
side during her darkest hour, and to
whom she will point and say: "These
are his children. It was to give them
a name, which he promised and yet
never bestowed, that I took his life."
Won’t Interfere With Counsel.
Mrs. Bradley Is quite content to leave
entirely to her counsel the selection of
the twelve men upon whom Is to de
pend her fate. There Is no disposition
on her part to domtnato In this matter.
Indeed tt is extretpely Improbable that
she will express a preference one way
or another for any one of the Jury.
It Is especially recalled that In the
Thaw trial the young millionaire In
sisted that he should be Consulted In
every Instance nn'd ho Juror was se
lected unless Thaw personally approved
of his personal appearance, his eves
and other minor details. According to
Mrs. Bradley's attorneys, a Juror with
eyes of blue or gray will he Juft ns
acceptable as one With brown.
Veniremen are Elderly.
In this connection, however,Itl* sig
nificant to note that the majority of
the original panel of twenty-six Jurors
summoned lo Ihe'present ease are men
well along In years. Seven of the.num-
ber are over 60 years of nge, seven are
In the forties and but one .prospective
Juror Is under 20 years.
Although it. la possible that not more
than’ one Juror should be selected m»t
uf this entire lot, It Is believed, accord,
ing to the present Intention of attor
neys on both sides, that the selection
of a jury will not consume more than
one of two. days df. court.
No Delay in Trial.
•In order, however, that there should
i>e no unnecessary delay In the selec
tion of the all-lmfiortant twelve men,'
}0o additional'.talesmen are being sum
moned today and will report to the
court tomorrow, ninking a total of 126.
"She has never tried to dictate In
sny of the details of the heating and
the preparation for It," said Attorney
Hoover, “and there will be no senseless
dismissal of a competent Juror on ac
count of prejudice existing In the mjnd
of the defendant against that certain
type cf man as has been the cue on
other trials. We expect to employ only
the usual examination and to proceed
with the selection of the Jury as rapldly
ns possible."

promptly answered remly.
The defense at once filed In court a plan
of abatement containing the pardon given
Power, hy (fovergor W. B. Tnylor. after the
commission of the.alleged crime. This was
turned over to the atturbey for the com
monwealth, who retired to examine and
confer nliont It.
Judge Motrin overruled the motion
of the defense to file the plea and par
don after (i vtgoyoiis objection by the
prosecution, tb, court bolding that the
validity of the ptfrorm wa* not within
the Jurisdiction of the court, as the
court of appeals had already pawed
upon that phisaof the question.
The defense, however, scored a point
in obtnlnlnfe permission lo make avowal
of the pardon; thus getting that docu
ment in the records over the emphatic
objection of the prosecution, which was
allowed'to give exception.
Court then adjourned until 2 o'clock,

" ' '■■"iH»ns that she Is one of a
rls and that her common
„*t she Is much letter off

time at home.
If a girl Is not 'married nt 25 aha 1*
usually fired of donees and the tiresome
round of social lift*, nnd she is very glad
to get Into some congeiil.’il line of work.

not fellow* that she loses her femininity
In the smallest degree.
Hhe «mi he out iu the world, a wage-
earner. nod still be ns modest nnd wom
anly tn though she hsd never left tbe
home ne!«t.
The girl who Is inrllued to lie bold and
fast Is In just us much danger of. be
coming so If she stays at home as when
she Is engaged in bitslnv*s. In fact, there
Is even more chance of her getting Into
these bad habit*, as she has more time
to get Into mischief.
To mv mind, the nverage business girl Is
about lhe Ancst product of this country.
Hhe i« an intelligent, capable, self-re
specting, womanly girl, and tbe men of the
country should be proud, of her. Hhe
goes about her business III a modest, seiisl-
File way, asking nothing but Just recogni
tion of her services and reapectfn! treat
ment from those with whom aho comes lu
dally contact. *
Hhe Is usually a good daughter, nnd, ow
ing to her generosity, many little extra
comforts creep Into the home.
If any young man reads these words let
him reinemlier that a good daughter makea
a good wife.
Learns tha Value of Money.
Through earning her own living slit* gains
practical knowledge of ‘tin* value of
