Have a Heart to Heart Talk.

SIDUX FALLS, s. u, Jan. 8.-ROb FitI-
simmons and his wife, Julia, have kissed
and made up and are going on the -tag ge
together Bob's shifty press agent has
accumulated enough material to boom
the co-stais for months ahead.
NIr. Fit2simmon~, grim Of face and hag-
gard, got here last evening from San Fran
cisco. The news of his coming had been
published far and wide by Bob, publicity
promoter ana the divorce colony expected
there would he something doing.
FitX had an interview with his wifes
lawyer Judge Atkins first thing. 1T was
difficult thing to get said the earnest pres,
agent. Bob couldn't get word with the
fnty hearted lawyer until he broke down
and wept like a che-id,
That was in the grill room OF the Cataract
Hotel"
The interview didn't appear to be satis-
factory, and the divorce colony buzzed with
curiosity as to what would happen The
busy press agent, on the Job every minute
speculated wisely
He will give Judge Atkins the slip said
Bob's little booster. "Once he gets to
Julia's side they will fall in each others
arms and all will be we'll"
Apparently tnlS morning fltZ dld give
the Judge the slip and managed TO get an
interview with Mrs. Fiz. When he emerged
the press agent had an audience drumned
up, which awaited Fitz with curiosity The
X-champion was beaming and every freckle
seemed cheerful.
"They have made it up" said the press
agent 81 told You so. Isn't that pretty
romance to set before Sioux Falls. 1t will

Julia, said Mr.. Fitzsmmons to the
reporters, is the best woman in the world -

BEATEN ~ HOSPITAL, NE SAYS.
Warrants Arc ISSUED Tor Nurses as a Result
OF Bcatty'S Injuries.

MoRRIsrowN, n. j.. Jan. G--Citzeps of
Hackettstown are indignant over the
alleged i'll treatment Of former Mayor
Jacob II. Beatty Of that town, who was
taken to the State Hospital in Morris Plains
on January 2 and vas subsequently found
TO be suffering from injuries on his left
side. They have sworn out warrants for
the nurses Of the institution, who, they
believe, are responsible for the injuries
One of the nurses, James ii. Mitchell who
was identified by Mr.. Beatty, has resigned
from the hospital and has disappeared
Before going however, he made an afti-
davit that he had done no injury to Mr..
Beatty. DR.. Evans Of the hospital said
tonight
when admitted, MIR. Beatty was some
what stupid and the doctors who accom-
panied him said he was under the influence
of narcotic and that they had resorted
to this because OF the fact that he was
excited and violent He was sent to the
bv the medical director to receive the
patient and make notes upon his case
supervisor James Gray with two male
nurses took the patient to the ward, He
was put into room and became very es-
cited when the nurses tried to undress him
and put him to bed. DR.. Horsford, in max
ing a physical examination. was informed
by the patient that he had been hurt in the
left side, and he doctor was inclined to the
belief that one or two or the ribs were in
jured and so reported to DR.. Evans. the
medical director. A careful inquiry was
ma de into the matter. and Dr. Evans de-
cided that il an injury existed it was due
to some mismanagenent Of the patient
before he arrived at the institution"
Mitchell's home is in Marion. Va, and the
aut thorties of the hospital have no knowl-
edge OF where he went. At the time he
went they had no aut thorty to detan him.
The medical director says that if there had
heen any evidence corrohora,ing the. state
ment Of the patient he would have had
Mitchell arrested. but If he should arrest
every man and woman nurse W HON the
patients accused there would be none left

Friends Say Illness Resulted From Insur.
ance Inquiry On the Mend Now.

John A. Mccall has been seriously III
at his home in Vest Sevent y-second street
for almost week. Mr. Mccall, 1t was
said yesterday, il on the mend now, and
his family believe that he is out Of danger.
Members of his family say that he has
been suffering from congestion of the lungs
and liver. Last Sunday he was seized
with intense pain in his abdomen and 1t
was feared for time that he had appendi-
Ctis. About the same time symptoms
of congestion of the lungs began to de-
velop and DR. Edward q. Janeway, the
heart and lung specialist, was called into
consultation with DR.. John Nanderpoel
of 80 West Thrty-ninth street, the Mccall
family physician.
After this first consultation DR. Janeway
was called in again. Mr.. McGaiIs az

to treatment, although he is still confined
to his bed.
Ordinarily Mr.. Mccall is rugged and

PLANTATION was offered to their many
friends, and after time the trouble
was all but forgotten.
But then Miss Edith R. Willis came
on the scene. She was young. viva
cious, talented, beautiful. From that
moment the gallant captain believed
that he had met his fate. He frankly
told Miss Willis that he believed her to
be his affinity, and he asked her to
marry him.
Yes" she said, but it takes more
than a whispered assent to make a
marriage. There had to be a divorce
first
So Capt. Appleton has begun suit
after all these years. Mrs. Appleton
lives in New York with her confidant
since her separation from her hus-
band, Miss Katherine Parsons, of Vir-
GINA, daughter of Col Henry Clay Par
sons. At. first Mrs. Appleton said she
wouldn't contest the suit provided the
captain made her suitable allowance
out of his wealth, but evidently the
two could not come to terms, for the
issue has been joined and the case will
come to trial. Miss Parsons will take
the stand in behalf of Mrs Appleton.

a diplomat, a traveller and an author.
He is member of the famous Myopia
Hunt, and lives at the very smart Som

The elder Twitchell sued, and Judge
McEwen decided in his favor. He
frankly admitted that he wanted his
wife to be happy, and for that reason
he was going to give her to his son.

lilies in the city. He numbered among
his friends several well-known society
women.
Skillful and continuous larceny, it is
alleged, enabled him to live at the
rate of $4,000 a year. For two years
or more, it is charged, he has stolen
Systematically and without coming I'M

his undoing.
MARITIME added to his income by work

Schley. He stage managed the en-
tertainments at the West side Y. M.

MARITIME, whose right name is said
to be Martin, came to this city from
Baltimore ten years ago. He is %
years old, and is known as one of the
''smartest dressers" in town.
In the West Side police court MARITIME
was brought to answer a charge of
grand larceny preferred by his en-
ployer, w. A. Laughlin. Edward H.

shey met young Edward Twitchell, the
handsome. stalwart son of the old
time benedict.
In week the pretty little Michigan
girl found that life in Chicago with
man old enough to be her father was
not the same thing as real love. She
found that the young fellow who was
her stepson had far more attractions
for her than her staid and very con-
sentative husband. In fact, before the
month was out, she was head over
heels in love with the son of her elder
ly husband. And, as if to add to this
strange mix-up, the son himself was
Just as madly in love with his own
stepmother-the wife of his father.
OF course, such things couldn't go
on forever. Mr.. Twitchell, ST., soon
learned that he stood in the way of
Mr. Twitchell. Jr. He taxed his wife
with loving his son. Proud OF her love,
she owned up.
And so the case was taken to court.
