A ROMANCE OF THE STAGE.
Ben TuthiII. His Wife. sylvia Thorne and a
 Divorce.
ISrecial Correspondencc.l

Special CorrespondenCc.l
 ST. LOUIs, Sept. lu.-Bcn Tuthill, the handsome comic opera manager who is now conducting the Uhrig Cave company hcrc. is soon to be bcrcft of his second wife, the handsome comic opera singer known in dramatic circles as Sylvia ThOrnc. n fluffy haired, shapcly and hand some blond.
 They wcrc married in New York two or three years ago, and although Dame Cos sip soon began to repeat their names in connection with flirtations and jealousy they lived together in comparative har- mony for n time.
 But soon tho irrcpressiblc mother-in- law, Mrs. Titus the fair Sylvias parent, appeared on the scene. Tuthill did not like her and she dctestcd him. Ono day Mrs Titus was intercepted by quick eyed detective while she was leaving n New York dry goods stOrc, and in tho scandal that followed Son in law Tuthill told of other exploits that did not whitcn the old lady's character. Since then they have not been the best of friends. Then there was sensation in which n rich Wall street broker, somebody's baby, throatcn- ing letters and other things were prumis cuously mixed up. Superintendent ByrncS straightCncd out the tangle, and the sen satiun soon blew over.
 In New Ork, where she nightly ap pCarCd at the Casino in the character of n hot tamalc toy, pretty Sylvia Thurnc had waited to her ears some queer stO- rcs about the frisky conduct of her hus- band in St. Louis. These stories also reached the willing ears of Mrs. Titus, and that dear old CrCaturo resolved tO invpSti- gate. Without tclCgraphing her son in law that she was coming Mrs. Titus slipped away from \sw York about thrCC weeks and slid into St. Louis The first thing she did after her arrival was to Cm- pluy detective. Then she settled down to await developments. The other night, accompanied by the detective. she waited outside the Cave until the perform ancC Was over and saw her son lin law come out They followed him long enough to produce n triumphant smile on the face of Mrs. Titus as she wendcd her way back to New York the next day. Soon after Manager Tuthill received word that the divorce papers were being drawn and will be presented to the court without further | delay. When a reporter asked Mir. Tut hill as to the truth of the story, ho con | firmcd all the facts related.
 II had hoped" he said, that this 1 would not get into the papers. Still I suppose 1 might as well acknowledge the story Is true. In writing it, however, 1 would ask as n favor that you speak only
 with kindness of Sylvia. She is n lovely | girl and as sweet and amiablc as she is | beautiful. We didn't get along. though. | owing to the mCddlcSomc interference of | Mrs. Titus. But won't even say my. | thing against tn" old lady. heaven bless | her! Just put all the blame on me and say that I think with Rnb IngcrSoll that

 Natures Grand Organ.
 One of tho drives from Manitou Is that up through the Ute pass to the Grand cav "rn<--a marvellous cave. or rather set of caves. filled with beautiful crystal for1na- tions and a remarkable display of stalao titc- and StalagInitCs- All sorts of fantas tic images abound-animals, birds, flow CTS. heads The grand organ" however Is rrAlly the wonder of the place. The keys of this weird instrument are formed of stalactiteS, which, being struck by the player. give out distinctly musical sounds tO such an extent as to allow the rendition of popular airs. This curious instrument sounds very like the xylOphone. Ute pass was the great route to Lcadvillc in the days of 1S7S-9 and is now the shortest approach to Cripple Crock by wagon The roadbcd is cut from the cliffs 100 feet above the roaring. foanling Fountain Gu Bouillr. The drive Is simply idyllic.
