the way of singing and dancing. The
younger girl especially proved to be
extremely clever, and Mr. Engel was
glad to give them both an engagement.
The little girl soon became a gen
eral favorite with everybody connect
ed with the theater Not only was she
quick to learn and a good singer, but
she went out of her way to do kind
things for other stage. people who got
into trouble.
Mr.. Engel was especially attracted
by the child-she was not yet 1S-
and he tried to find out as much as
he could of her past life. with the idea
of writing to her people and suggest
ing that they take their daughter off
the stage. But in spite of his con-
tinued efforts he found out little-only
that the girl came from Milwaukee.
Nellie" Sc said to her one even

Milwaukee,"
Father and mother are both dead
long ago." said Nellie with look in
ke- innocent blue eyes that went

living"
In the course of two months the
pretty young girl had been promoted
to principal part in the burlesque of
Beauty and the Beast" She was the
sleeping beauty. and it was her duty
to lie apparently asleep in soft, white
robes on couch of gold, until she was
awakened by the coming of the prince.
Then she sprang up with cry of joy
and ran into his arms. She made a
dainty little princess and her scene
with the prince was always a hit with
the house.
One morning a big, fair-haired young
man called on Manager Engel He
was accompanied by an elderly woman
dressed in black. He introduced him
self as wholesale sausage manufac-
turer of Milwaukee. The elderly wom-
an whom he was escorting was the

him from their engagement. She
could not bring herself to settle down
as the wife of a mere sausage maker.
She must have some romance, some
color in her life. She was not good
enough for him anyhow. He would
easily find a girl who could make him
much happier than she could ever
hope to do. And so on.
In some way, the details of which
Mr.. Engel has forgotten. the two
traced the girl to New York and to his
theater. Now they wanted his help in
getting her to go home with them.
He gladly gave it, though the success
of their plan meant to him the loss of
a star. This was the plan finally
agreed upon:
In her scene with the prince the
fairy princess came on the stage all
alone and lay down to sleep on the
couch in the center. Then, while her
eyes were shut, the prince came on
and wakened her by singing. She
aroused herself. and, making out the
prince standing by the far side of
her couch, flew into his wide opened
arms.
The actor who played the prince was
called into the conference, and among
the three men a plot was carefully ar
ranged. 1t was agreed that the man
from Milwaukee should be smuggled
down into the dressing room of the
real prince, who was TO play his own
part right through the play until it
came to the scene with the princess.
At that point the man from Milwau-
kee was to put on the gorgeous robes
of the prince and go on to the stage
after the princess had gone to sleep on
the couch. The actor who played the
prince agreed to help out the lover in
his impromptu role by standing in the
wings and singing the tenor solo by
the sound of which the princess was
awakened. Then, when the princess
awoke and sat up to greet her prince,
she would see for the first time the
face of her faithful lover from Mil
waukee and would be in duty bound
to rush into his open arms. That sort

family were carried on with secrecy.
The exact terms on which a settle.
ment was reached were not learned.
Mr.. Hedges declined to say anything
about the matter and Mr.. Friend said
he had pledged himself to say moth
ing. 1t is believed, though, that the
Strong family paid enough to Miss
Yohe to enable her to get her jewelry
out of pawn here, to redeem that
pawned at Yokohama and Genoa, and
gave a large cash consideration for
the jewelry that Miss Yohe says was
taken from the box.
Whatever the terms of settlement
were, they were evidently satisfactory
to Miss Yohe and her lawyer. They
came out of Mr.. Hedges office jubil-
ant.
Detective Murphy went with Miss
Yohe and Friend to the pawnshop and
got her jewels. Mr.. Friend paid the
pawnbroker an amount said to be ST.
500. They paid cash. About $40O of
this is said to have been interest.
Immediately on leaving the pawn
brokers' Miss Yohe, with Friend and
Murphy, drove to a hotel. Miss Yohe
got a cable blank and then dictated
the following message, which Mr..
Friend wrote down:
ITO Wood, Yokohama.-Look out
er. May Yohe.
Miss Yohe paid $40 at the hotel tele-
graph office to send the dispatch. She

END OF FAMOUS SCANDAL.

May Yohe and Capt Strong Quarrel
and Separate.
The son of the late Mayor w. L.
Strong of New York, who came into a
great deal of notoriety by clipping with
May Yohe, the actress, and then wife
of Lord Hope, has disappeared from
Hastings s-on-the-Hudson, N. Y. 1t is
said he pawned $4,000 worth of Miss
Yohe's jewels. Strong resigned from
the army a year ago while his rela-
tions with May Yohe were under in
vestigation by the war department. He
was a major of volunteers.
Wherever he may be, he is now safe
from arrest on the charge of grand
larceny made against him by May
Yohe, as the Strong family settled that
woman's claims against him.
A sum of money said to be between
$15.0 900 and $4,000 was paid to Miss
Yohe and her lawyer.
Friends of Strong believe he bas
gone back to Japan. Miss Yohe sent
she pawned a good many of her Jewels
in Yokohama last year, saying she
would be in that city just as soon as
the next steamer would bring her
there. Emanuel Friend the womans
lawyer, stated that there was no ar
rangement for Strong and Miss Yohe
to meet again at the other side of the
world.

About once in two months Mike went
on spree and was discharged, but
was always taken back when things
in his particular sphere went wrong.
Mr. Shaw learned of this and asked
the delinquents immediate superior:
What would you do if Mike were
dead?" "Oh, suppose we would have

We'll, so far as this department is
concerned Mike is dead. So begin

According to the story told him by the

the other was as evidently new to the

Seeking Substitute for Wood Tres.

Seeking Substitute tor Wood Ties.
New York, Sept. lS- Railroad
managers and steel manufacturers are
freshly interested in experiments with
steel ties This is not new subject,
but it is steadily increasing in import
ance, and as time passes without any
satisfactory substitute being found for
wood ties it is likely to become really
of moment, More than 100, 600, 600
ties are annually required by the rail
roads for their 200, coo miles of road
bed and to supply this enormous
quantity there is yearly sacrificed the
equivalent of forest one mile wide
reaching from the Atlantic to the
Pacihc.
As the necessity for finding substi-
tute becomes more urgent inventive
genius may be expected to rise accord
ingly. Close observers of this situa-
tion are persuaded it is question of
short time only until some manner
of satisfactory steel railroad tie shall
be produced Experiments have been
going on for several years until recent
ly they were conducted in more or
less indifferent manner. Railroad
managers assisted by steel manufactur-
ing interests have now taken the sub
iect up In u most serious spirit
A great fortune awaits the man who
will produce an available railroad tie
OF steel. The Pennsylvania and sew
erai other large systems at one time
or another have tried steel ties, but
without success. The invariable diff
Guilty is that the steel tie is 700 I'M
yielding and rigid, thus causing ex.
cessive wear of rolling gear. New
designs in steel are now at premium,
and ~ this becomes more widely
known the versatile American brain,
1t is believed, will prove equal TO the
occasion The introduction of steel
ties will be great thing for the steel
industry, hence the active interest OF
steel manufacturers. Experiments
are now being undertaken with y
view to the increasing necessity of the
situation. The question has engaged
the earnest attention of some of tine
most skillful men in the railroad
world as we'll as in the big steel
shops.
