10 Marry Emma Eames.

Through an attorney who is familiar
with all the details of the transaction,
Emilio de Gogorza, the baritone who.
while travelling about the west on con

" in love with her, will be married in
the spring to the beautiful and talent
ed American prima donna From the
same source 1t leaked out this week
that Gogorza has agreed to pay his
former wife $500 a month as long as
she lives, in consideration of her drop
ping the suit she instituted against
Nine. Eames for the alienation of her
husbands affections and the action
brought against him for desertion.
Papers cementing this arrangement
were quietly executed in Paris last
fall. Another interesting bit of gossip
In connection with the romance of the
baritone and Nine. Eames is the dis
closure that Gogorza has become q
citizen of the republic of France and
as such was granted a divorce from
his first wife on the ground that she
had refused to go to Paris to live with
him. This action was not defended by
the wife, although it is claimed she
was served with a copy of the COM
plant at her home in this city. AS
the action of the French courts will
not interfere with the money settle
ment made previously for her benefit
by de Gogorza, she concluded that q
defense would be of no value to her
since she long since reconciled herself
to the conviction that she could not
longer retain the love OF her husband,
whom she once publicly declared had
become the psychic affinity of the
famous diva Until the details of the
secret Partisan divorce became known
the other day, the musical world
placed little credence in the oft en-
phasized report that the two singers
would be married in the spring. In
their opinion, the resolute refusal OF
the baritone's wife to free her husband
would forever stand In the way of
such a union. Now that this has been

The Best presssd Woman.

Among the vendors Of society gos-
sip the story is going the rounds that
Mrs. Alfred Werner, who as the daugh-
ter Of Giovanni Morissini, one time
partner of the late Jay Gould, was re-
puted to be the best dressed woman in
New York, as well as one Of its most
beautiful, has paid $4,000 to her hus-
bands first wife as balm to her ag-
grieved feelings. Werner was for
mer New York policeman and won the
admiration of Miss Morissini several
years ago by stopping a team of run
away horses which she was driving
along the Harlem river speedway. He
had pretty little wife who had shared
his trials and troubles when as a
young policeman he was seeking to
earn the good will Of his superiors.
Werner divorced her subsequently and
it is said she is disposed to ascribe to
the heiress the loss Of her influence
with him. To mollify the former wife
and offset any possible claim that she
might be prompted to make by the
realization of the fact that her success
sor is worth $1,000,000 or more, the
payment of $50, 900 it is said was made

Would Like to Return.

There is some talk in theatrical cir
cles that Mrs. August Belmont has a
laundering to get back on the stage
following the example of Ethel Barry
more, who in private life is Mrs. Rus
sci Colt. 1t is only little more than
a year since Mrs. Belmont, who as
Miss Eleanor Robson, was one of the
most accomplished and most popular
of the younger stars, gave up what
she esteemed her career to settle
down in tranquil domestic affluence as
the wife Of one of the city's wealthiest
men.
Belmont was more than fifty and
had a son by his first marriage almost
as old as the pretty actress who be-
came his step-mother. To many
struggling young women, exposed to
the hardships of the stage, marriage to
multi-millionaire would be the full
fillment of the most extravagant of
dreams, but it is said to have palled
on the former star, who still hears the
applause of the enraptured audience
in her ears and feels the fascinating
thrill of the life behind the scenes.
The report of her ambition to return
to it has come as a great surprise TO
the theatrical and social world, mas
much as she vowed at the time Of her
marriage that she had read her vale
dictory to the profession in which sho
had been such a conspicuous figure.
However, as Ethel Barrymore said the
same thing when she married young
Colt, who has a million or more to his
credit and everything to tempt a
young woman to enjoy it in leisure
and recreation, only to return to the
stage in little more than fifteen
months, society has come to look for
the unexpected happening and to ac-
cept it as the inevitable when the in
fatuation for domesticity begins to
show the tarnish of wear and gets on
the nerve.

Morbid curiosIty Of eothanites.

Morbid Curiosity of Gothamites.
Deeply perturbed over the almost
morbid sense of curiosity shown by
Gothamites in the marriages of wealthy
girls to noblemen from across the seas,
several of the ministers of the local
churches have been scoring the in
creasing tendency toward snobbishness
in the republic. The two leading COM
mentators on this predisposition have
been the Rev. DR.. Charles H. Park
hurst and the Rev. George W. Grinton.
In cutting rebuke of those who lose
their heads" over marriages of this
sort, this week DIR. Grinton directed at
tention to the folly OF bowling to the
fetch of foreign titles.
The snobbishness that permits
Americans to sacrifice their dignity
and clothing to obtain one glimpse of
a wedding between a titled foreigner
and a rich American girl is disgrace
full" exclaimed DR.. Grinton.
TT is snobbish to marry for a title.
1t is snobbish to marry for money. 1t
is snobbihs to strive, by any means, 70
enter a social circle above your own.
On the other hand, it Is snobbish to be
abnormally interested in the people
who do these things, and 1t is snob-
bish to worship money or persons
above you socially. And, finally, 1t Is
un-American to be snobbish, and yet
the snobs are steadily on the increase
in this country.
"A snob, as I use the word, means
one who courts favor by fiattery and
attention. A snob is also one who by
initiating another attempts to prove
he moves in the same social circle.
Snobs are those who worship royalty,
wealth or position, thus surrendering
their Americanism for a mess of pot
tage- Liberty endowed citizens who
attempt to gain an entrance into royal
circles by fawning upon royalty for
favor are not only snobs, but are sim
pie and silly as well.
Democracy is the foundation Of this
nation. Unfortunately. though, money
is each day more fully worshipped.
There are even Americans foolish
enough to believe money constitutes L
sort of aristocracy. Their snobbish
souls bow down before wealth. So
that when a snobbish foreigner mar
ries a snobbish heiress we have the
sickening sight of a mob of snobs
fighting to see the wedding"

Chang Hangs AGE.


The immigration authorities would
like to find an expert horse trader to
help them determine the age Of Chang
Hang, a smiling Celestial who, on his
claim that he is but seventeen years
of age, seeks to land here as a Chinese
merchant. The officials at Ellis Island
who have held him up say he is at
least twenty-four years of age and is
not eligible for admission to the coun-
try. Hang protests that he is the vic
tim of a grievouS blunder and demands
permission to enter under the rights
guaranteed him by the treaty between
the governments at Washington and
Pekin. In order to settle the question
of age, upon which his right to come
here is based, the immigration officers
have evolved the unprecedented plan
Of having his bones subjected to X-ray
examination. By this means they say
his age can be determined with pre-
cision. Hang says he would prefer TO
have veterinarian examine his teeth,
because he would be surer of a square
