MITTEN FOR THE RAJAH.

% Impressed by Chicago Hsiressss
That He Wanted to Wed Both.
Word was received In Chicago re-
Gently that the Misses Marion and
Barbara Deering. daughters Of Charles
Deering, chairman Of the board of d.
rectors of the International Harvester
company Of Chicago, and heiresses to
many millions. had refused the mar
riage proposal Of rajah, with good
mesa knows how many wives already.

Of the trip came In one of the hill
towns of India. where lived the rajah.
whose many names and titles are be-
ing kept a secret by the Deering fam
fly.
Captain Whipple as an ex-army Off
Ger travels well supplied with letters
of introduction, and the members of
his party have been everywhere re-
ceived into the highest court circles.
An official visit was paid to the rich
young rajah. The girls and their un-
Gle were received In state. The rajah
was bedecked with diamonds and 9th
er precious stones. Hundreds of serv-
ants and retainers fianked the throne
on which he was seated.
The Chicago heiresses were charm
ingly gowned. They were striking ex-
emplifica tions of the modern young
American woman. The young raja h
was struck by their appearance and
seemed loath to have them depart.
Later In the day he sent an emissary
to Captain Whipple.
His most gracious majesty the ra-
jah Is very desirous of marrying the
two women whom your excellency has
the honor to escort" announced the
emissary. with a low bow. He would
make them his wives and would load
them with presents. And. what Is
more, his majesty the rajah would
adopt your own honorable self In or
der that you might remain near the
ladies'"
"Tell your rajah." answered Captain
Whipple. that a great big NO is the
answer of the young women. Tell him
that they are perfectly satisfied with
their present condition. and. as for
presents. tell him that each one of the
young women has money enough TO
buy up his whole dinky little princi-
pality. Good day"

then Wells stepped OF the sidewalk.
He did not notice Wells particularly
after that, or hear him speak. but
knew that he went north.
In trying to arrive at the number
of white men ON the sidewalk near
the scene. the witness testified, in re-
sponse to questions. that there were
nine white men that he noticed.
The man who was running south
he said was VIII Freeland. When
he reached Shirley jim Irwin was
there and Layton also. He. himself,
the witness stated. was the third per-

The witness then named a number
of parties near the body. He himself
went away for a very short time but
came back. DIR. Yater was the first
physician TO arrive.
On cross examination the witness
said he could not testify certainly
whether or not Rogers and Robinson
were there.

that they would see TO It, and furth-
er that he. Shirley. had been appoin-
ted by the union as a committeeman
to see to II.
The witness knew Ditmore and saw
him at the scene of the killing on the
morning of the third of March and al
so on the fourth. Ditmore talked tf'
