a a Weston, charged with forgery to pre- Judice Wertheimer, the former core spondent.
 Her ladyship wore a handsome tailor , made suit of scotch plaid, and over hel trim shoulders hung stylish fur cape
 Besides her sat Lord Dumb, who bore with an awkward attempt at indiffer.
 ence the gaze of scores of curious eyes He spent most of his time gazing vacant
 ly into space and chewing on the finger tips of his lavender gloves.
 } Lady Dunlo on the contrary was all
 smilee and grace, and let her big blue
 eyes wander mischievously over the ar-
 ray of square -jawed barristers, solemn
 magistrates end vicious-looking prison
 CTS, only 70 bring them to rest with a
 mixture of tenderness and triumph up-
 on her ering, but repentant better half.
 An occasional pitying glance was all she
 vouchsafed the prisoner, he who had
 once enjoyed her love.
 But exert her will as she might her
 ladyship was one or twice betrayed in
 signs of emotion. For instance, when
 Weston's imploring letter was read,
 which ran as follows, and caused pro found sensation, the corners of Lady
 Dunlo's pretty mouth twitched nervous
 ly:
 Private-MY DEAR BELLE: beg
 merely to see you few minutes alone
 l swear it is only for a matter of the
 greatest importance. Tell the bearer if I ' fa .A, | serious with me. For the love of God
 don't say know. I shall not recall the | past, in word, look or deed. For my
 children's sake I entreat you. Mrs. | Weston to whom I have just telegraph
 ed, will be here tomorrow and will ex-
 plain all and will entreat your fnrbear-
 ance. l ask you again, in the name of all
 l have suffered, that you will see me at
 once. My life is at stake. I hope your
 old good nature will protect one who
 begs to subscribe himself, yours, very
 respectful,
 ALDEN WESTON.
 F. S.-I shall not compromise you in
 any way I swear.
 This letter, most compromising, of course, was considered as a practical avowal of the forgeries with which
 Weston was charged, considering the cowardly way in which the prisoner thus tried to blackmail Wertheimer in- to deeping silence as to the forgeries in his name.
 Weston's sentence, seven years penal servitude, IS regarded as being no more than he richly deserves.
