SPECIAL TO THE News.


Philadelphia, Dec. 27.-As a Christ
mas gift, Theodore Wright, fnancier
and railroad operator, was released
from Clifton insane asylum on Tuesday.
Wright disappeared mysteriously ten
years ago, and since then his friends
have made every effort to find him,
without avail until recently. Gradual
ly, however, the story leaked out that
his son, Mintuin B. Waight, had spirit
ed him to an asylum.
After being confined for ten years,
Wright managed to smuggle an appeal
for help to his attorneys, ard he was
declared sane after a terrific legal
fight. The fortune of the elder Wright
is estimated at $40, 200, 900, and it was
for this money that his son placed him
in confinement,
The story of Wright's disappearance
and his subsequent reappearance will
rank among the worlds greatest tales
of litigation and family intrigue. I'M
mensely wealthy, and with weakness
which was the indulgence of his son,
Theodore Wright disappeared ten
years ago, and his son and friends inn
mediately started the story that he
had committed suicide In some quarters
the theory of his death was accepted,
but later it was learned that he was

confined in an asylum, and still later it
developed that his son had been re-
sponsible for his incarceration,
How the old man was taken to the
asylum, how the attendants were
bribed to keep secret his real name,
how the records were falsifed and how
his life was moulded to suit the con-
venience of his conspiring offspring
all these read like novel, and are only
equalled by the remarkable case of a
similar nature in which Moses Fowler
Chase, the young Indiana millionaire,
was hidden in Paris asylum for three
years while his aunt tried to get hold
Of his estate.
Wright finally smuggled an appeal
for help through the lines of watchful
guards, and his attorneys at once be-
gan a fight for his liberty. Public SEN
timent at that time favored the young
man, because of the eccentricities and
whims on the part of the father, and
because the son had plausible story.
The sensational developments of the
trial, which Iesulted in the father be-
ing declared sane, showed the son in
his true light.

sane asylum a physical wreck, his

WOMAN finds
RICH GOLD Mines
Mrs. Dyer Has Assays Made Show
ine that Her Ore Runs $50
to the Ton

Mrs. H. A. Dyer, the woman pros
pector of Blackhorse, has "struck it
rich." She has had assays made of ore
taken from her claims thirty miles
from B'ackhorse, which show that the
ore carr les 500 to the ton in gold. Mrs.
Dyer came here about month ago
with some float taken from the claims
she had discovered, which excited con-
siderable interest. Soon afterward she
returned to Blackhorse to do her loca-
tion work, returning to Ely few days
ago.
Mrs. Dyer is thorough-going pros
pectOr. When she goes out into the
hills she discards encumbering skirts
and dons blue overalls and a sweater
She can do anything in the mining line
that man can do, and can do it equally
well. When prospecting she asks no
favors because of her sex, but depends
entirely upon her very superior hustling
ability.
Mrs. Dyer is not tenderfoot. and
it takes only little while to discover
the fact after conversing with her.
She is as up-to-date as any prospector
of the sterner sex.
She has prospected in various parts
of the world, including Alaska. Dur
ing the first rush to the frozen north
she joined the crowd of fortune seek
ers, and, more fortunate than many
of them, she returned with about $10,
900.
She expects to make big thing out
of her Blackhorse mines.

DIVORCES AGES 20
AND 40, SAYS JUDGE
Chicago Expert Sums Up I'M
pressiOns After an Unusual
Experience in Work.

CHICAGO, July 24,-After separat-
ing forty couples in three weeks
through the application of law. Judge
Willard McEwen of the Circuit court
sums UP his impressions of the divorce
industry thus;
"'The age Of 90 is a pivotal time in
married life The age Of 40 is another
time when divorces are likely. In the
forty divorce cases heard but two
were church marriages. Conclusions:
Church weddings produce but per
or but 30 per cent, were church mem
bers. But eight men out of the forty
principals in the divorce court, or 20
per cent, were church attendants Con-
clusIon: Eighty per cent of the men
church members keep out of the di
vorce courts. The majority of princi-
pals were in the ncighborhood Of 20
years of age or 40 years Of age
''There should be a law enacted to
prevent the marriage Of woman
twice divorced or a man twice di-
vorced. Persons twice divorced have
manifested their unftncss for matrimo-
nial experience. Two failures should
count them out. There should be most
stringent laws to prevent the remar-
riages of persons afflicted with certain
ailments,
Lack of companionship is by far
the greatest cause of divorce. Alimony
should be granted the wife, whether
guilty or guiltless, In practically every
case. n woman who has lived with a
man number Of years is entitled to
pension. In all cases the man should
be made to support his children In
the case of young married couple
without children the wife should be
given alimony, rs ii will make a second
marriage on the part of the husband
serious business consideration, will
stimulate him TO greater efforts and
will make a reconciliation more likely.
In the case of men applying for di-
vorces, l have found in the great ma
jority of cases the woman has become
petty purse bearing tyrant.

if she is to be kept out of men IS occu.
