JUST TELLS ON THEM, THAT'S ALL
Peculiar But Effective Revenge Of q
Deserted Husband.

The vengeance which rich and
prominent Philadclphian desires to
visit upon his faithless wife and the
man who ran away with her has taken
an unusual form, He has employed
detectives to shadow them and expose
their shameful story. The officers
pursued them to San Francisco and
on to Honolulu, then back to San
Francisco and ON to Mexico, thence
to Vancouver and now the trailers
will have to 20 to Australia,
Piekney Norris Ia the name OF the
outraged and vindietlve husband. In
January last his wife left him and
their children and ran away with
Cavalier Smith, who was also promi-
nent In society and club circles of
Philadelphia. Their elopment caused
one OF tho biggest scandals and sensa-
ttons that city ever experienced The
womaa Is supposed to have taken $780,
600 with her and she had be-
sides in her own right about 100000.
She had two children and lived In
mansion.
Smith lived with his wife and chill
dren close to the Norris mansion. At
one time he hal considerable money,
but he Ia supposed to have gone
through with much " II several years
ago. The relatives VI tho woman
claim that Smith Will remain with
her M long as her fortune holds out
and then abandon her Her husband
never made any effort to induce hor
to return. but Ia spending money to
make her life as miserable and noto-
rious as possible Smiths family has
made oyertures for him to return, but
no far they have failed.
In preparing to run away with Smith
Mrs. Norris told her husband she was
going to Baltimore for few days to
visit relatives. Instead OF going to
that city, she went to New York and
met Smith, who had preceded her
there. They Immediately came west
and on Jan, 10, sailed ON the steamer
Pori ostenslbly for China. Thoy
stopped Mt Honolulu, however, and
took house In the outskirts OF the
city. Mr., Norris. through detectives
here, located his wife and Smith and
they were exposed. They camo back
and went to California, whore they
thought they would not be known.
They were promptly told about the
same day they registered mn Mr.. and
Mrs. Smith. and then they went into
hiding at the Maison Richie for about
ten days. On leaving for Los Angeles
and the south six or seven weeks ago.
Mr. Norris was appraised Of their move
ments. He had them followed by a
confidential agent and when they
thought they were comfortably settled
In luxurious quarters free from ex-
posure the Los Angeles papers blazed
forth their history.
Friends OF Mr.. Norris say that he
now knows OF their trip to Australia

Oh, give not flowers to the clay.
One rose while there liz breath
VIII help the soul more on Its way
Than twenty after death.
Walt not until the Spirits fed
To praise Its many deeds,
Those words through life were better

To heal the heart that bleeds.
Walt not until lips are sealed
To press them with a kiss,
Alas! that balm which might have

Probably only small number II the
inhabitants of Wisconsin are aware
tina, several valuable diamonds have
eten found in the drift deposits of the
STATE. IN 1876 Ii carat diamond was
found at Eagle in Waukesha county.
and IA 1928 one OF 2f~S2 earatS weight
Was found at Oregon IN Dane county.
lac former has y yellowiSh tinge but
tue latter is white, Both are now un-
eUt IN the possession of TIFFANY Il
Company Of New York, In 1856 wine
yellow diamond OF u Ia carats weight
was found nj kohlsvtlle in Washing
ton county, and is now in the poSses-
sion of Mrs, Louis Endich in the neigh
Boring town Of kewaskum. This is
an unusually large stone. Two Wis
cousin diamonds are nov in the pos.
session of Bundle \ upmeyer the we'll
known jewelers. OF Milwaukee, The
larger Of these is a white stone Of
about t IL carats found some seven
teen Years ago at Saukville in Ogaukee
county, and the smaller stone. also
white, is of Lilo earats and was dis
covered at Burlington in Racine county.
number OF smaller stones, the largest
2i~S2 OF carat in weight were found
At different times between 1887 and 1889
IL the bed of Plum creek in Rock elm
township, Pierce county
Although the above descyibcu dia
monds were found so long ago II is
only quite recently that they have been
recognized as diamonds, because the
persons who found them were unfamil-
t6t With the properties Of the diamond.
The SaukNille stone was kept fr sin
Teen years, and the Eagle stone for
seven years before they were submitted
to competent examination, There can
he little doubt that other diamonds
than these have been found in the
state, which have not been reported,
but which have been preserved on the
clock shelf OF country farmhouses ta-
gether with other articles which have
been picked up AS curious or unusual.
1t is not probable that any important
diamond mines will he discovered In
Wisconsin, for the stones which have
thus far been found are enclosed In the
ridges of gravel, outlining the area
which in a former age WAS covered by
glacial ice-the kettle maraine' Of the
