the need thereof.

Fascinating Manners Under

under bail on a complaint sworn out

pleading and after she furnished the
necessary $4,000 bail she was released.

arraignment yesterday there were sew
eral photographers awaiting her in the

white veil. Miss Hale was dressed In
white from head to foot, just as If she
were going out for a pleasure trip 10

vator on the first floor of the court
house she noticed the gold and dia-
mond badge pinned on Yonkin's vest
and made a cool inspection of the
trinket before expressing her opinion

tanned her air of indifference and when
she was introduced to Deputy District
Attorney Major Donnel. who will pros

with the major.
II do hope you have something nice
to say about me in that testimony"
she remarked. Everyone so far has
said so many unpleasant things"

the officers of the court found it diff
ficult to refrain from sympathetic
glances. Miss Hale is noted for her
wonderful smile and 1t caused many
