perhaps nowhere more tangiblv evil

movement through Virginia, which has
taken shape In the various normal
schools that have been established
under Peabody stimulus in several
sections OF the State.

Southern woman bread winner with

means of earning livelihood. In the
rural distrlcts, in many cases, these
brave women were but poorly equipped,

county school has hindered progress

DEATH CAME TOO SOON.
100000 Became $3,OOO.OOO.

And Mrs. Tabor Was waiting to RE-
trieve the Fortune of the Man who
Had Cruelty Put Her Aside for "Baby
Doe" when Death Came.
A pathetic life ended few days ago in
the death in California of Mrs. Augusta
L. Tabor. When Senator Horace A. W.
Tabor, rolling in his millions, put away by
divorce this companion of his early strug-
giles, she made prophecy.
She said then, while her place was being
taken by another woman, that the lime
would come when II. A. w. Tabor, his own
millions having fled, would come to her
begging assistance. And she said she
would give it to him.
The time for such a word had almost
come. Senator Tabor is in the last throes
of financial ruin, and Mrs. Augusta L.
Tabor died worth nearly s., 200, 00O and ex-
pectant to the last.
The Phoenix told only few months ago
the story of Tabor's rise and fall. The
son of poor farmer in Holland, this state,
he became a stone cutter and at Portland,
Me-, MET his bride. With him she faced
bitter poverty on a Kansas farm, made the
trying trip across the plains to the gold
fields of Colorado, and there spent several
years Of untold suffering before Tabor
struck it rich'' and became a millionaire.
Tabor's wealth at one time was estimated
at $4,000, 900. He was the first lieutenant
governor of Colorado, and in 1888 was
sent to the United States Senate for 80
days to fill out an unexpired term. This
distinction cost him $4,000. When at
the height of his power Tabor became in
fatuated with BABY Doe" "glittering'
young woman. He then sought to put
aside the woman who helped him to his
exalted position She allowed him to Sc
cure a divorce, and he settled 100000 on
her. Tabor went to Washington and was
married there to "Baby Doe''-Miss Nc
| Court. The wedding was a great social
event and President Arthur gave the bride
away. President Arthur and all Washing
ton society were sorry little later when
! they heard from Leadville.
Retribution to Tabor is complete Now
the mortgages upon his last piece of prop.
erty except a somewhat mythical gold mine
in the inner wilderness of old Mexico,
! have been foreclosed. For the past II
| years Mrs. Tabor has lived in retirement.
! BY shrewd investments her 100000 be-
came 81, 900, 600 and she was the richest
woman in Colorado. She said many times
that Tabor would come back to her, but
she died too soon.
She has many heirs, among them her
/ foster son and his child. There are many
! people who cannot help thinking what a
! climax of devotion that never died it
would be if in her will she should go more
/ than half way to meet the man who was by
her side in those trying days of 30.
