1stence in Sioux City of what resem-
.bles Black Hand society came to
light today in connection with the po-
lice court cases against Arthur Promo,
who was arrested for threatening to
shoot Police Matron Thurston. Assert
ing. that Promo was not capable of
caring for his three children, the po-
lice matron was instrumental in hav-
home, a charitable institution.
In Premo's trial, letter was intro
duced which was sent to one of the
officers of the Boys and Girls home,
signed the "Cowboy Gang contain.
ing the threat that the recipient and
her son would be killed and two other
officers of the home put out of the
way unless the Promo children were re-
stored to their parents. f.~-7
I'VE are a big bunch Of cowboys -
says the letter, land we do not go to
law. We fight and we kill. Unless
you produce those children we will get
you and your crowd. Don It delay, fo1
we are not making bluff
For eight pages the letter runs on
containing threats in almost every line
Ths sfssss Of tAs R RsaGas who
have been terrorized by the threats

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 29.-Because his
wife believes in free love and urged
him to sue for a separation from her,
Robert Eaton has obtained a divorce
Mrs. Eaton lives in Cody, Wyo., and
is willing to be friend and sweet
heart to her husband, but not wife,
according to letter she wrote him,
which he introduced.
In this letter she said in part eff

friends and lovers, would gladly wish
to be with you again. Unless you get

Later Mrs. Eaton wrote her husband
another letter along the same lines.
She said she wanted to correspond with
him until they met again. She says
she will not marry again, altho she
has found noble man who is lovable
and kind to her and believes just as
she does.
~ don't believe in marriage any
more,,' she wrote .tThere is a higher
law than the law of church and man.
Our lives are an example. I love you
and you desire to be with me. Yet

AMELIA GARDNER is
OUT OF THE BELASCO
COMPANY FROM NOW ON

Amelia Gardner resigned from the
Belasco company, wherein she has
played leads ever since Eugene That's
Lawton left last Saturday night and
played her last role last night. Her
successor will not be chosen for several
weeks, as the run of plays announced
Manager Jack BlackWood will go east
TO select leading woman after per-
sonally viewing the work of several
candidates.
Singularly enough, the same cause Of
resignation figured In Miss Gardner's
case as did with Miss Lawton-a ques-
tion of parts-and the same play figures
in them. Miss Lawton left during a
"Trip Van Wrinkle" run, and that play
opens again tonight Miss Gardner
was required to take a role in it which
she did not think comported with her
dignity and position as leading wo-
man. Mr.. Blackwood backed up George
w. Barnum, the stage director, and
Miss Gardner Saturday night served
her notice. Something of the sort had
been anticipated, and an understudy
was well up in the role, so that rip"
will go on without the slightest hitch.
Miss Gardner's husband, Harry West,
recently resigned and they will go east
together.
Miss Gertrude Keller, we'll known
both socially and in club circles, she
being member of the exclusive Friday
Morning organization, will play the
part assigned to Miss Gardner tonight.
She will also assume roles in one or
two other plays soon to be put on.
