not take place. ..-----
Who is that?'S
Everybody turned and looked at
Max His arm was leveled in the di-
rection of a fine portrait in oil which
hung suspended over the fireplace.
Max was very pale.
Whats that to you?" snarled the
prince. He was what we Yankees call
hopping mad" The vase was worth
hundred crowns, and he never could
find leaf to replace the one just
broken.
Il believe l have a right to know
who that woman is up there" Max
spoke quietly. AS a matter of fact he
was too weak to speak otherwise.
"A right to know? What do you
mean?" demanded the prince fiercely.
1T is my wife"
With trembling fingers Max pro-
duced his locket.
viii you look at this" he asked in
voice that was bit shaky.
The prince stepped forward and
Jerked the locket from Max's hand.
But the moment he saw the contents
his jaw fell and he rocked on his heels
unsteadily and staggered back toward
the duke for support.
What's the matter, prince?" asked
the duke anxiously. After all Doppel-
kim was an old crony, and mayhap he
had been harsh with him.
Where did you get that?" asked the
prince hoarsely
Il have always worn it," answered
Max, The chain that went with it
originally will no longer fit my neck.
"Arnheim! Duke! come
and look at thls!"-feebly.
Good heaven!" cried the duke.
1T is the princess!" said Arnheim in
awed tones.
Where did you get it?" demanded
the prince again.
Il was found with 1t around my
neck"
Duke, what do you Think" asked
the agitated prince.
What do think?"

should be! If Ii were possible!"
"What?" The duke looked from the
prince to the man who had worn the
locket. Certainly there wasn't any
sign of likeness. But when he looked
at the portrait on the wall and then at
Max doubt grew in his eyes. They
were somewhat alike. He plucked
nervously at his beard.

I believe that may be your

By this time they were all tremen-

all save the princess, who was gazing
at Max with sudden gladness in her
eyes. while over her cheeks there stole
the phantom of rose. If 1t were true!

Max. ct is not necessary for me to

the duke, but the duke was equally

DECREE OF DIVORCE
MRS. ELSIE FRENCH VANDERBILT
 WINS SUIT.
She Gets Custody of Child and Allowed to RemnrFy-Mr. Vanderbilt aa Prevented from Re-
 marrying.

New York, May 25.--Mrg. Elsie French Vanderbilt was granted an in- terlocutory decree of divorce from AL fred C. Vanderbilt by Justice O'Gor- man in the Supreme Court today. On the report of David Mcclure. the ref cree, who was appointed to take tes- timony and determine the findings in the suit instituted by Mrs. Wander bilt.
 Justice O'Gorman confirmed the re- port of the referee that Mir. Vanderbilt had been guilty of misconduct. and directed that Mrs. Vanderbilt be granted a judgment of absolute di- vorce.
 The divorce decree provides that Mrs Vanderbilt may marry during her life- time. The custody of William H. Van derbilt. the only child of the marriage, was awarded to Mrs. Vanderbilt. No provision was made for alimony in the decree. nor was the subject alluded to in the report of Referee Mcclure.
 The referees report developed that testimony had been secured from Mir. Vanderbilt's valet concerning the mis- conduct of his employer on a railroad train a year ago last October in Vir- glnia.
 MT. Vanderbilt sAherited upwards of S6O 900 .0O0 from his father. the late Cornelius Vanderbilt.
 The crisis in the domestic affairs of Alfred Gwynn Vanderbilt developed in October last. when Mrs. Vanderbilt filed an action for divorce against her husband within an hour after he had sailed for England.

MRS. GUINNESS ALIVE
IMPORTANT NEW EVIDENCE COMES
 TO LIGHT.
A Man in Arkansas Declares That the Woman Escaped in Mans CI0Ah- ing and Has Since Writ
 ten to Him.

La Porte Ind. May 25.-Mayor Oar. row and his law partner. H. K. Wor- den, who represent Ray Lamphere, charged with the murder of Mrs Belle Gunness and three children. are great ly exercised over the receipt of a let ter from a man in Akansas. whose name they decline to make known, and who gives information which they con- sider of much importance.
 The writer is known to Mayor Dar- row, having formerly lived in Marshal County, this State. and therefore ere dence is placed in his statements. This man positively declares that Mrs. Gun ness escaped in mans clothing and that he, not later than May 3, i've days after she was burned to death, ac- cording to the official statement of Coroner Mack, received a letter from her. He says he will produce this let ter and turn over to officers other let ters and will also give additional in- formation regarding her If he is per- sonally interviewed by the officers either in La Porte or at his home in Arkansas.
