OFFICERS SWEAT GIRL

John Sullivan telephoned there or
dering that he be turned loose.
This is the girl whose mother
says Chief of Detectives Martin
Burns told her that her daughter
was drowned in a river in Colo
RADIO and that it was useless to
search for her in Spokane. At the
time the girl was employed as a
domestic in private family and
walked out daily to the parks with
the children of her employer, yet
the Information was given that the
Spokane police had secured every
corner of the town to find her
without success.
After the girl turned up volun-
tarily and went with her mother
to swear out a warrant for Nugent,
and after Nugent was in custody,
she says she was taken before
Prosecutor Pugh, Deputy Prosecu-
tor Grow, Probation Officer Har-
mon and Assistant Probation Off
Ger Mrs. Rihard and "sweated''
like common felon for two or
three hours. They wanted to find
if a certain young single man who
had paid some attention to the girl
as a legitimate sutton was not the
man that should be penalzed in
stead of the married man Nugent
and the girl was examined to have
her admit that it was the single
man and not the married man that
had accomplished her ruin
Because OF the sweating and the
effort to bring in some one else,
nothing has been done toward the
prosecution of Nugent, who is still
in Jail. A warrant is out for the
young single man.
Mrs. Rihard, assistant probation
officer, denies that the girl was
sweated for over half an hour at
time and that then the eXamina.
ton was conducted in the presence
OF the girls mother.

ROME, April John G. A.
Leishman and the Marquis de Val
deterazo, ambassadors at Rome, re-
spectively, from the United States
and Spain, have had a near quar-.
rel" At least the marquis has had
one. There is no direct evidence
that Mr.. Leishman holds the same
view. The information all comes
from the marquis. Mr.. Leishman
is doing no talking. Possibly he is
not aware that any quarrel occur
red
The story, as circulated in diplo-
matte circles in Rome, runs thus:
The marquis came here only re-
Gently. He presented his creden-
tials to King Victor Emmanuel.
Then, in accordance with custom
here, he sent a secretary to each
of the other ambassadors to in
quire when he might make his Off
cial calls upon them. The ambassa-
doris all replied promptly with one
Observation-Disclosures Leishman.
The marquis accordingly wrote,
repeating his inquiry. No answer.
The marquis called at all the other
embassies. Still no answer from
Ambassador Leishman. This made
the marquis indignant. He used
the telephone, succeeded in finding
Ambassador Leishman at the other
end of the line, and asked, "for the
last time, to say at what time the
ambassador of the king of Spain
might have the honor of being re-
ceived by the ambassador of the
United States of America
Tomorrow morning at IL
O'clock" was the reply.

SEATTLE, Wn., April 7.-Violet
Bourne, a girl of nine years, is the
Josef Hoffman of America. She has
duplicated the astonishing feat of
Hoffman, when he electrified Rub
instein.
Appearing in public concert with
the Seattle Symphony orchestra,
she played the Mozard d minor con-
certo with such understanding that
critics pronounce her performance
possibly without parallel in this
country. Small for her age, and
barely able to reach the pedals with
her little toes, she gave the entire
work from memory. She was twice
recalled and played LISTS second
rhapsody and Paderewski's minuet
without notes.
The little girl comes from fam
lily of musicians, her father having
played first violin and clarinet.
Since she was four years old she
has been her mothers pupil. She
carries on her studies together with
her school work and is not the least
overtaxed. her mother declares.
