that these two partners. one an hon.

had married twin sisters of a lawyer

useful as bearing on this case by the
fact that Samuels, the. absconding
partner, had utilized the extraordinary
likeness between his wife and child
and Mr.. Levisohns wife and child to
make good his escape. The escape was
made good, and we had lost sight of

genuine wonder. Under her
childish beauty were the supple sinews
of a Tenderoin queen who at once was
tireless and brilliant and good humored
and patriotic, for she entered with zest
into showing notorious Paris that it
was feeble when invaded by notorious
New York. And today, this
puissant creature truly is game on
large scale and plays her latest part of
saver of the life of the scion of notori-
Gus Pittsburg millions boldly and power
fully, and District Attorney Jerome
has an opponent worthy of his keen
minds best steel when he assais her
role of the broken "chiLd wife," who
explains that all this was because she
had been taught that no woman was
chaste, and she knew no better until
good and loyal Harry Thaw explained
to her the true ethics of female virtue
in the . Dead Rat in Paris.
Since then Harry Thaw foolishly killed
a man, but she is as game now as when
she put the Dead Rat " on "the
blink, and she stands courageously as
the broken "child wife" as the child
victim of rich mems licentiousness,
who, at last encountering the love of
big, brave honest, simple minded hero,
suddenly discovered her own true heart
and learned that she had been very,
very wicked-so wicked, indeed, that,
being inherently noble herself, and
with real red heart under the laven-
der, she refused to link her soiled life
with his as his wife. This
picture, presented in celebrated trial
in New York, was planned by a master
hand, and would be great and con-
vincing and good except for the gap
ing flaw of this noble and beautiful
incident happening in juxtaposition
with the dead Rat" in Paris, and
that the simple minded hero and the
weeping heroine filled with absinthe
celebrated the discovery of virtue by
cooking pure berries bought at holy
dawn from decent peasants-in their
bathtub. Invigorated by this
purifying experience, Harry Thaw re-
turned to New York to clear the mora
atmosphere by shedding the blood OF

KEITH-KEARNS
EXPECTED HERE
Utah Capitalists Are Planning
Trip of Inspection to Their
Properties

David Keith and former Senator
Thomas Kearns are expected to visit
Ely soon.
David Keith says that both the Nc
Donald-Ely and the Success at Duck
Creek district of Nevada are operating
with the usual force of miners, and the
results being obtained are all that
could be expected. The Duck Creek
district has experinced an unusal Win
ter, and while this has in no manner
retarded the development of the Sue
cess properties, it hampers the team
sters in getting supplies and equipment
into the country.
Within a month Keith anticipates
that the weather will have cleared, and
then he and Senator Kearns will make
a trip of inspection to the ground and
have the development work rushed to
completion. This will give both prop
critics an opportunity to get into the

FATHER and
SON RECONClLED
Youth Who EIOped With His
Mothers French Maid Is
PardOned
ESPECIAL TO THE News"

Pittsburg, February 27. John Moor
head, the millionaire iron manufactures,
has forgiven his son, John Aston
Moorhead, former half-back on the
Yale football team, who, ten months
ago eloped with the French maid,
Marie, whom his mother had imported
from Paris. The reconciliation was the
direct result of the death of Miss
Annie Katherine Moorhead, aged II,
who was killed in the Bronx wreck on
the New York Central Railroad week
ago yesterday.
The Moorheads has been estranged
ever since the young mans marriage,
although the dead girl is said to have
tried repeatedly to effect a reconcilia-
ton between her father and brother,
whom she idolized. When the elder
Moorhead returned from New York
with the body of his daughter last Mon
day conference between father and
son resulted in reconciliation.
Two weeks ago young Moorhead was
elected athletic director of the West
ern University of Pennsylvania at a
salary of $500 year. The ability of
the young man to make his own way
is said to have done much to soften
the anger of his father.
