Ms Mooney gives one the impression
that she is strictly business. Any way
she says she is going to stay here till she
settles up the matter she has in hand.
In the meantime there will be busy mo-
ments in the life OF Lord Sholto Douglas.
LADY DOUGLAS VERSION.
At $3.50 Lady Sholto Douglas again
called upon her mother IN her comfort
able su tie OF rooms at Hote Ardmour. at
Broadway and Sixth street. Her first
greeting was, Mother, are you CON- fort
abieY' Then followed 4 few casual re-
marks, when lad, Shoito arranged to
meet ber mothe in the morning and
talk over matters. The Herald reporter
accompanied Lady Sholto to h home.
and en- route she talked pretty freely Of
the affair. Shs would neither affirm nor
deny that hei hus bano had threatened to
shoot her, but she did say: II think
ord Sholto too much of a gentleman to
threaten to shoot any one. NV husband
Grafton and has been very kind to ME.
When I compare his sentility and good
breeding with that of other men, | can
not but firmly conclude that l could ask
no better husband. and ! love him for
what he IS himself. If had 1t TO Go
! over again l would marry him, even
though he were not Lord Sholto.
The fact of his being a lord had not
at the time nor would il again have any
influence on me. l love hin for what he
is as a gentleman ana not because of his
titled family. Of course l now find my
self in an awkward position. Lord Shulto
and my mother do not ge. along together.
He las been raised surrounded by diff.
ferent circum stances from what was and
it looks as though either mother and l
must come up to his standard or he down
to ours. | much prefer that we should
seek cultivated ways and adopt his stand
ard. This whole trouble has been brought
about by the newspapers. Sometimes l
may have said too much. again some one
else may have SAID what they should not,
which together with what the reporters
have added in their stories has made no
end of trouble for us. All we ask is to be
left alone and pursue our way as lost
peaceable cirizens are allowed to"
''Do you hear from his people"
Certainly l do. l have a whole bas-
ket full of letters from Lord Douglas
mother and others of the family. They
write me very klnd letters.
with whom do you side in this mat
ter?"
"You have asked me o difficult ques-
ton. One is my mother, the other my
husband. l love both. | must and in
fact want to be by my husband, yet how
can give up my mother?"
''Will you return to the Burbank to hn-
ish your engagement2'
IL expect SO, but really am too con-
fused tonight to answer that question. II
do l certainly shall demand that my
mother be permitted to see me in my
dressing room ii 1 want to see her there. "
'What is the nature of the trouble be-
tween Lord Sholto and your mother?"
II do not care to enter into that be-
yond what l have already intimated.
They have had some differences hut
hope the matter amy be settled without
more ado. l must refer you to my
mother for her side of the story. l do
| not care to talk for her,"
