She arrived in Pittsburg late last
week. ostensibly on her way to her
husband. She was driven to a down.
town hotel. where she registered un-
der an assumed name. Since that time
she has been conspicuous in restaur-
ants and cafes by night and seldom
leaves her apartments during the day
With q woman friend she has been
seen constantly in the company OF
two Young men of Pittsburg, one mar
ried. at prominent cafes, whore they
stav until the lights are turned OUT.
Wednesday night she went to the
apartments of woman friend at the
Duquesne hotel and ordered wine sent
to the room. but the management re-
fused to sell her anything and in
structed the clerks to send nothing to
her. Indignantly she told the pro-
prietor that she could get anything
she wanted 'in the dump If she had
the money" displaying at the same
time a roll of bills of large denomin
ations.
Later in the evening the two women
ordered a cab and left the hotel, going
to another downtown fashionable no
tel Their trunks were moved there
Yesterday morning and both are still
guests of the house.
Leon G. Martin, her husband, is in
the west, waiting for Man" to join
him. When he left, it was announced
that she was going along, but instead
she went to Washington. D. G. The
manager of the Duquesne hotel and
employees of the place say that Martin
was intensely attached to his wife, and
practically lived for her alone. His
conduct seems to imply as much, for
when she was released from the
Tombs and after she had once been
his wife, he courted her and again
married her.
Until about a month ago Martin
and his wife had been living at the
Duquesne. Previous to that time they
had apartments in Williamsburg, but
this arrangement was given up when
reports of her presence in the city
drove her to her home in Washington
until the publicity blew over. This
was during the Thaw trial. when the
newspapers were after stories on i'm
pressiOns and emotions and interviews
with every one who had ever been a
resident of the famous New York
prison.

UNION PACIFIC RAIL,
ROADS new WEED BURNER

DENVER. June 22.-How to rid it's
right Of way of weeds so tall, rank
and troublesome as to interfere with
the operation of trains, has been
solved on the Union Pacific railroad
by the invention of a machine that
does the work of 800 men a day. The
new gasOlene weed burner turned out
by the Omaha shops of the Hartman
| road covers % miles in II hours,
while heretofore it has required
gang of 16 men, working full day,
20 cut the weeds from single mile of
track.
The weed burner is built entirely of
steel, with regulation trucks. At one
end is gasolene engine, used for pro-
polling the car and pumping the air
Which forces gasolene to the burners
spreading out near the ground. When
at work the weed burner runs three or
four miles an hour but can make a
speed of from 1 2to 10 miles, and is
handled on the road under regular
train orders.
Tanks carried on the car platform
contain enough gasolene for a days
run. Through rows of burners spread
ing well beyond the rails. the flaming
gasolene is forced downward into the
weeds, killing root and branch, While
the old process did not stop future
growth.
1t is not uncommon on western
branch lines, sidings and commercial
tracks to see weeds from three to
seven feet high, which form a great
obstruction to train movement, cause
slippery rails and make operation diff
ficult. The Union Pacific weed burner
is therefore a solution of a serious
railroad problem. General Manager
Mohler conceived the idea which has
been developed by Mr.. w. r. McKeen,
superintendent of motive power of the
Union Pacific.
