Grigsbys spent one summer at Saratoga.
There the Grigsby girl was thrown into
contact with the family of Spencer Trask.
the well-known Wall street banker, who
has delightful country seat there, which
he calls ''Yadd." Mrs. Trask. an author
of note and a woman of charm and re-
finement. was attracted by the beauty and
ingenuousness of Eln1ilie Gr.gsby. The
elder woman was pleased to invite her and
her mother to her home there. and later
to her house on Washington square.
At dinners and receptions Miss Grigsby
of Kentucky was a conspicuous guest
She was In every way a pleasing add ton
to the Trasks circle Of acquaintance.
Several young men, struck no less by her
charm than by her physical beauty. paid
devoted attention to her. She was on the
way to become a reignng belle.
At this time Emile GrigSby happened
while driving down 9TH avenue, to meet a
young man she had known in Kentucky
She stopped the carriage and chatted with
him. and mentioned, in her delight at be-

he could not believe. Very WE'LL" said
the young fellow. 81 have tried to do you

speak to me again.
A few days later Mr.. Trask sent his
friend a cordial note of thanks and apol-
ogy. and thereafter Mss Grigsby did not
appear at the house in Washington square
ITO Be Seen Not Known"
Women in the position that Emile Grigs-
by must have chosen deliberately avoid, as
a rule, contact with other women who can
snub them. Every man In touch with So
cial conditions along 9th avenue knew or
had at least formed an opinion which
passed current In society for absolute
knowledge, as to the relations beteen the
Grigsby girl and her multi-milllonaire bene-
factor.
She was pointed out at the opera as such
women are always pointed out In Paris
as a magnificent beauty, about whom
everybody may know, but whom no one
should know.
In spite of these really fundamental con-
ditions of society, Emile Grigsby was bent
upon establishing footing in the houses
of important families She met Mrs. Stuy-
vesant Fish on a voyage abroad Mrs
to be charmed not alone by the beauty,
but by the evident culture and wit of the
person who lived in mansion that Yerkes
had built FOR her.

socially ambitious young woman enthusi-s
astically agreed, for continuance OF their

PLEA FOR ISLE OF PINES
Separatists Appeal to Americans for 8
Hearing.

A cablegram from Havana last night
says; The Americans In the vicinity OF
NeuVa Corona, Isle of Pines, who are in
terested IN the attempt to separate the
isiahd from Cuba, have issued an appeal
TO ihe people OF the United States to aid
IN preventing the ratification of the Isle
of Pines treaty pending In the United States
Senate. The appeal says:
Thus far any hearing has been denied
US. We ask you to save us from BETRAYAL
py few unworthy representatives of our
government until we have had the only
thing we ask for. namely hearing. at
which 1t can be shown that our cause is
just, and that we are only striving to pre-
serve Tor our country what belongs to it,"
The appeal retterates the arguments that
the Island belongs TO the United States 1t
alleges that the sole motive back of the
pending treaty is the desire to condone and
conceal the disobedience of ''the American
officer who was responsible for permitting
Cuba TO take control of the Isle of Pines"

demonstrations between women who like
one another of Mrs. Fish and Miss Grigsby.
Don't you know who she is?'' asked the
man.
"Ony that she's a charming girl"
ASK somebody" said he.
Mrs. Fish asked and then dropped the
girl. 1t would be almost tiresome TO re-
peat how often such episodes occurred in
this persons career.
A Notifying Experience
Yet another instance might be given to
show how vain was the frantic effort to
cover the past. Among acquaintance
! made during a stay at Old Point Comfort
was a distinguished naval officer. The
latter being in New York one day asked
Mrs. Grigsby and Miss Grigsby TO dine
at the Waldorf with some of his brother
officers" While they were in the midst
Of their dinner an unpleasant surprise
was brewing in the bar room.
A horse trainer, Kentucky bred, but cos
mopolite in his ways. had been drinking
too much with sundry horse owners. This
trainer was in evening dress He began
to feel as If he owned the hotel He
stalked about the corridors with his high
hat on the back of his head, and he talked
boisterously.
Before any one could prevent him he
reeled into the dining room with no APP
parent purpose. He recognized Sue"
Grigsby at table with some women and
men III evening uTeSS.
"Hullo, Sue" he shouted; what in h
are you doing here?'
What else occurred may better be mag
ined than described. 1t is said that Sue"
Grigsby has never ventured into a public
dining room since.
tits said that Emile Grigsby had some
social success abroad; that she met we'll

Emile Grigsby did not reciprocate the old

He has since written book in which the
Grigsby girl, idealized, figures as the her.

from London solely, as he told his friends,
to take a last look at the beautiful girl who
held his heart
