Russian Lion" have arrived at terms
of agreement and the London Sports
man makes the following official an
nouncement of the conditions.
The men first agreed to contest one
fall in the Graeco-Roman style for

committee, was accepted, and the
Royal Albert hall having been secured
it was decided to bring the match in
that building on the evening of Satur-

down with consumption. She grew
because of her surroundings.
She had no heart to work. Her one
desire was to grant every request OF
her husband She watched him every
moment and jumped at every whimper.
She rolled and cooked his opium pills
while he was propped up on bench
of mating used for bed and pulled
away at his pipe.
The fumes made the woman sleepy
and the two spent most of their time
dreaming. They got lower and lower

Mrs. A. B. Puffer, who is now max

states, has written a letter to the

travels and a description of the nota-
BILE places she has visited. The letter
follows:
MEDFORD, Mass, June 4-For some
write concerning my movements since
time past l have been intending to
leaving Walla Walla, April 4. After a
very pleasant trip of four days
reached Boston, and since that time
have been very busy visiting the
points of interest about the city. Med
ford, the city where l am stopping, is
about five miles from Boston, and is
one of the prettiest residential sections
near the Hub. 1t is a very old town
containing the we'll known Craddock
and Royal houses, the former for a
time the headquarters of Washington
and earlier used as a fort against the
Indians.
Soon after arrival here l drove over
the route, which Paul Revere took on
the night of his famous ride: from
Charlestown Neck. through Medford
Arlington into Lexington center, where
the battle ground is set aside as pub
lie common, and is marked by large
statue of a minute-man. From Lex
ington l drove to Concord and saw the
old bridge where the American farmers
resisted the British so bravely.
In Boston proper l have visited the
old South and North churches: Kinks
Chapel and it's old burying ground:
Faneuil Hall, the old State House.

She Rails Against the People of Her
CoIor-Negress Leaves
New York.

NEW YORK, June 14.-Relieved of
the excitement she has known during
the past week, Hannah Elias, who, ac-
cording to aged John r. Platt, lured
from him more than half a million dol
lars. lolled awkwardly in her palatial
residence in Central Park West.
Without restraint she told, with an
attempt at studied detail, a story of her
recent life
The woman rallied against the peo-
jle of her own color. She declared
that she despised negroes and sought
to elevate herself above them.
So far as the principals and lawyers
in the case are concerned, nothing
further was done today.
Hannah Elias who will soon leave
New York for a much needed rest,
lounged lazily in a great chair She
was attired in a blue wrapper. Kato.

proved of invaluable aid to his mis-

tcles the negress will take away with

Il am sorry am a negress, but it is
no fault of mine. l would like to be
white, but that l cannot be.
Not being able to change my color,
1 did the next best thing-I tried to
adopt accomplishments which might
neutralize the fact that l am not
white. Look at this

copybooks such as school children use.

from the works of French authors,

many many ways of taking advantage

denly, sitting up and looking violent
L despise them. Why. l would not

Would you care to say anything
about your career while in Philadel-

! Mr.. Platt l believe, loved me, and
think he still does. His affection is
aged and therefore seems somewhat
pathetic His family was the cause
of his trouble.
Mr. Plat called me his Queen of
Sheba. l never asked him for a cent
or threatened him. | told him if the
money he gave me caused him finan-
cial embarrassment l did not want it.
Handed Her $4,000.
He then took a roll of bills from his
pocket. There was $4,000 in it, and
he told me to take it and get some
thing nice for myself. l handed back
the money and said it was too much
He then cast it on the floor. The string
binding it broke and the breeze from
an electric fan scattered the bills all
over the room. Kato swept them up
| in dustpan and dumped them in
drawer of my secretary.

the wife threatened me. The lawyer
was equally importune. He was my at

him and discharged him. Do you
know that man got 100000 from me
and $4,000 from Mr.. Plat. Yes, 1

Hannah Elias turned to the subject
of Andrew H. Green and said with
much intensity that she had never met
him and that he was in no way con-
nected with her career.
