GILLEHE'S LAST SUNRISE FOLLOWED BY A SHOCK
(continued from Page 1.)

her letters which were found in the young mans room after his arrest at
 Eagle Bay. have been considered by
 many as classic in their simplicity and their tender pleading TOT the right that was her due.
 GRACE BROWNS LAST LETTER. Her last letter to her lover, written a
 few days before her fatal trip to Big
 Moose. was particularly pathetic. "I
 have been bidding goodbye to some
 places today" she wrote. There are
 so many hooks, dear, and all of them so dear to me. have lived here nearly all my life. First. I said goodbye to the spring house with it's great masses of green moss; then the Beehive a cute little house in the orchard. and of course all the neighbOrs that have mended my dresses from little tot up. to save me @ thrashing 1 really de- served
 Gillette had been more or less of a rover up to the time he became fore man in his uncle's shirt manufactory in Cortland. N. Y. He had led a some what gay life but was given to under stand upon his arrival in Cortland that he must conduct himself so that his wealthy relatives might a least rec OgniZe him. He soon became interSet- ed in church work, made many friends and apparently conducted himself with propriety.
 BEGINNING OF THE TRAGEDY.
 Grace Brown was a farmers daugh- ter from South Otselic who worked in the same factory with Gillette. AL . l,o ,1s n attention her companions were not long in recognizing that she was somewhat of favorite with the young foreman. He began to call on her at the home of her married sister. who lived in the city. and soon won her trust and af- lection. The girls confidence in Gil- lette and his promise of marrying eventually led to her undoing and in the summer 0f 1906 she went home to prepare for her wedding which she felt could not long be postponed. It was during her stay at her home in South Otselic that she wrote him the remark able series of letters which were found among Gillette's effects after his ar rest
 In these OutpOurings of her soul she breathed the poienancy of her sorrow. and her sweetness of girlish youth faith and self-sacrifice were ever ap- parent. In her misery she pleaded with her lover to come to her saying that she had been brave but was be- ginning to feel discourag ged. In spite of her suffering she thought first of all of him. and how she might lessen any burden that he was destined to bear.
 'I am as lonesome for you as-Oh. as [ thought I'd be. I don't believe you've even missed me" she wrote soon after her arrival home. ''T did not think all the home folks would be so glad to sec me. They ate me up. and if you ever have thought I was spoiled. | dear, I don't know what you will think | of me when I get back. You or any i one else won't be able to do anything !

 Mrs. Arthur R. House, of Church Road, MoOrestOwn. \. J., writes:

NEW YORK.-There has been fire.
~ quent speculation for many years
as to where ]. Cheever Goodwin found
the type which he embodied in the
Lone Fisherman made famous in
"Evangeline." Mr.. Goodwin himself
usually not voluble man, not given
to long dissertations, found his widest
expression in writing, and the fact
remains that he has never written the
story of the origin of this silent, mys
FERROUS character which has taken a
permanent place in American usage
and tradition. The expression Lone
Fisherman" springs naturally to the
lips when one beholds a man perched
on the shores of the river or sound
solitary and expectant. But were you
to speak to one of these persons they
might be voluble enough in telling Of
the wondrous fish they have landed
or expected to land
But the real ideal Lone Fisherman
as conceived by the librettist is man
whose whole sphere of activities is
comprehended by pantomime and no
spoken word. For many years there
has been search to find such a char
acter, but now the friends of Edward

red at all by the close proximity OF the
electric train service beneath it.
The erection of high-class apartment
hotels, or family apartment houses,
upon this great superstructure above
the tracks has also been proposed. AL
though no property of this sort has
ever been utilized for purposes as
are now proposed, it is declared en-
tlrely practical and adaptable by this
experts who have considered the vari-
oous propositions.
The great areas which will be avail
able for the site of the proposed new
palace of amusement as soon as the
subterranean tracks are completed
will embrace ten square city blocks.
They will extend from Forty-fifth
street on the south to Fiftieth street
on the north and between Park ave-
nuc and Lexington avenue on the east,
and between Park and Madison ave-
nues on the west. Each of these
squares" will be 700 feet east and
west by 200 feet north and south.

TALK OF NEW YORK
Gossip of People and Events Told
in Interesting Manner.
The Silent Broker of Wall Street

Lefferts Neefus, or Silent Edward"
declare that Mr.. Goodwin must have
certainly had him in mind, or someone
who was perfect replica, when he
drew the character in "Evangeline."
Mr.. Neefus is probably the most ex-
pert fisherman in the financial dis
trict, just as he is the most silent and
uncommunicative operator on the
street He has never told fish story
He has never made an election fore
cast. He has never attempted to tell
the age of Ann. Nor has he ever es-
sayed to predict increased prosperity
or appalling disaster. In the environ
ment where words fill the air like
leaves of Vallambrosa, Mr.. Neefus only
releases those which are absolutely
necessary, that is ALL The appellation
Silent Edward is no misnomer.
Mr. Neefus when trading upon the
curb never shouts forth the word
Sold in making trade, but simply
mods his head and the deal is closed
without loss of breath and without
waste of precious words.
But Mr. Neefus is a man of action,
and under strict compulsion-for in
stance that imposed by military dis
cipline-he can talk in cold, direct,
comprehensive speech. 1t may not
be much to his liking, but he is man
who puts duty, whether domestic or
patriotic, above all other things, and II
occasion requires, may rip off line
of talk which fairly vibrates with vi.

She is the only woman steward in
any large hotel in New York.
1t was during the last illness of Cad

Miss Anna Caddagan developed an I'M

over to her the entire management of
the hotel. After his death she became
general manager of the property.
She made several changes in the per-
sonnet of the staff, but SO far as adj
ministration is concerned proceeded
along those lines which her brother
followed for many years and which
brought success to him and to the
Hoffman house. The Miss Cadda-
