France 1t is written in German, a literal
translation of which reads: MY dearest
Paula: Telegram sent today; the purport of
1t is, I'm coming on the goth. A letter in

of my heart
AS told in the sporting extra of THE
EVENING STAR, Miss K%lipenbourg
was yesterday afternoon released in
$500 bail by Commissioner Watchorn,
of Ellis Island, acting under instruc-
tons from Acting Secretary of the
Bureau of Commerce and Labor Her
bert Knox Smith! before whom Edwin
S. Merrill, counsel for the petite
Viennese, appeared on Monday.
Mr.. Merrill, on his trip to Ellis ISL
and, when he was armed with the bail
bond which only needed execution and
the official approval of the commits
%sioner, was accompanied by William
H. Solomon, counsel for the girl, whom
Commissioner Watchorn had exiled
from the island, because of his con-
duct ''unbecomlng a gentleman and
an attorney"
The two lawyers were accompanied
by Abraham Fisher. of 209 East Broad
way, who furnished the necessary Sc
curity for the girls release, but it
seemed that the commissioner was I'M
duly cautious, for he made numerous
inquiries as to the standing of Fisher
before approving the bond. Then, too,
1t seemed a long time before Miss
K~lipenpourg was informed that she
could leave the island
After packing her belongings Miss
Klipenbourg emerged from the little
room on the top floor of the main
building radiant In a blue broadcloth
suit and numerous diamond rings and
pendants. Tears welled up in the big
eyes and a sob burst from her. She
leaped forward and. throwing her arms
around the neck of Lawyer Solomon,
kissed him.
I'm causing the arrest of the girl"
said Commissioner Watchorn. II acted
upon charges made In an affidavit
signed by Horace e Miller. There was
nothing irregular about that. But her
case is unique and the first that we
have encountered under the new law,
which provides that any undesirable
person coming to this country may be
deported at any time within three years
of landing. If she should be sent back
finally / do not know whether she
would be sent first class, as she came.
or not. l him that the law does not
cover that point"
III was in 1903 that the pretty Vien-
nese first met Miller. He said his name
was Heinrich Holbein. but she later dis
covered his zeal name to be Horace e.
Miller. Soon after leaving Europe. ac-
cording to Miss Klipenbonrg, she wrote
