Gives Way to Her
Feelings
nv Assoclated rress.

fv Associated F'ress.
PITTsBURG, Aug. 6.--The end of the
famous and sensational Hartje divorce
case was begun today, when arguments
were started before Judge Fraser.
MIR. and Mrs. Hartje endured the
final ordeal when the lawyers made
arguments, both libellant and respond
ent getting a hot scoring, the conclu-
sion for today being speech by John
Marion for the libellant.
Reference to the children Of the cou-
pie seemed to move Mr.. Hart1e and
his wife very much. During Mr.. Mar
ron's arguments Mrs. Hartje at times
grew CHASTITY pale at Mr.. Marron's as
sertions. Mr.. Hartje was greatly af-
fected by the statement Of Mr.. Marion
that he had not kissed his children for
a year.
Mr.. Ferguson made short speech,
but will conclude tomorrow after Mr.
Freeman argues for the respondent.
Attorney w. B. Rogers made the first
address for Mr.. Hartje. He made
sharp attack on the character of Mrs.
Hartje.
He spoke for little more than an
hour He referred first to the Separa-
that the real reason for her desertion
was to be found in the love letters al
legged to have been written by her to
her coachman correspondent, Tom Ma
dine.
Mrs. Hartje, overwrought by the
weeks Of excitement, gave way to her
feelings as her attorney. Marcus w.
Acheson, jr., was making his plea. At
torney Acheson inclined to the pathetic

silently. During her scathing arraign-
lnent by Attorney Rogers, who opened
the argument for Hartje, she main
tanned her composure except to express
by her looks her disgust at what was
being said.
1t is expected that arguments will be
completed in a day or two. Judge Fra
ser will leave the city tomorrow and the
courts decision is not expected until

'ZAzA' APPEARS
IN NEW GUISE
FRENCH VERSION RADICALLY
TRIMMED
5eIasco Stock Company Gives splen-
did Production Of the Play as
Changed to Suit the Ameri-
can Taste

A splendid production of play that
is both bad and good-of "Zaza"--is
what the Belasco stock company is
giving this week.
The production marks the first ap-
pearance of Hobart Bosworth, the new
leading man, as a regular member of
the company, and also he return of
Margaret Langham after two months
absence, but Amelia Gardner was, of
course, the play.
AS zaza, the concert girl, Amelia
Gardner was no. at her best-at least
she was not as common as Zaza might
be; but as Zaza, the woman who loved,
and Zaza, the aroken toy, she was what
she should be- che was a human, low
able Zaza.
Two Versions Widely Differ
The inconsistencies and the strong
points of the play have been dwe;t
upon at former productions, but one
cannot help recalling the difference be-
tween the French version Of the pro-
duction and the one which David
Belasco has supplied to suit the Ameri-
can taste. Which is the better is a
question which students of ethics might
ponder on for many a day without COM
ing to any htlpful conclusion. Love
redeems the world" teaches the Ameri-
different. If we must be pie; sed, David
Belasco has discovered the way to do it.
arts cIeVerIy Taken
Hobart Bosworth has often before APP
peared as Bernard Dufresne and he
gives a finished production of a part
that affords little. Especially in the
last act was his acting strong last even
ing.
Marie Howe, as the aunt with the
heart trouble, which can be relieved
only by frequent trips to the liquor bot
tie, did fine bit of character acting
Miss Howe's aunt Rosa could hardly
be improved upon.
Howard Scott did another clever bit
of work as the Due de Brissac and Will
liam Yerance was good as Cascart
Mr.. Yerance played the part on the
road with Florence Roberts, and it is
one of his best.
Bebe Daniels again proves that she is
a little actress clever in degree far
beyond the average child. She Is Tota.
Edith Campbell plays the part of
Madam Dufresne, and Margaret Lang
ham is Alice, the friend of Zaza.
The production is well staged and the
cast is a large one. Especially inter-
esting is the stage scene of the first act,
when behind the scenes" becomes a
reality.

HUNDREDS SEE GIRL KILLED.
Foot Hopelessly Wedged Between the
Sleepers on Trestle, She Prays.


Wilmington, Del - Kneeling in
prayer, after she had struggled vain
ly to free her foot from between the
ties Of Baltimore and Ohio railroad
trestle, Miss Elizabeth Rothwell, a
young woman of this city, was
ground to pieces by a freight train
near Brandywine Springs Park.
Her aunt Mrs. Richard Rothwell.
and a young cousin, Richard Roth
well, who were with her at the time,
were both injured
There was farmers fair at the
park and hundreds of persons saw
the tragedy.
Miss Rothwell, her aunt and her
cousin had gone to the fair together,
and were crossing the trestle to take
car home when a whistle warned
them that train was approaching.
They turned to run back, but when
they saw that they were more than
half way across they wheeled about
again and ran in the other direction.
In doing so Miss Rothwells right foot
slipped between the ties and became
firmly wedged.
Miss Rothwell jumped, alighting
on the bank twenty feet below and
breaking several bones. The boy was
too bewildered to move and the en-
CINE struck him, tossing him off the
side of the trestle. Then Miss Roth
well was killed.
