NEW THOUGHT LEADERS
WIFE IN THE TOLLS.

-
"a> T4y known to many Durango peo-
pa ". Soo,e in the lime hghs. Mrs.
McIve, 's.s who by the way-is
niece :, I'm Logan, is un-
der arrest /. Ag the diamonds
of a Denver actr. ;. OF the affair the
Denver Post says:
Back of the arrest Of Mrs. Alex
ander j. McIvor-Tyndall III Chicago
on a charge of stealing diamond
rings from New York actress is a
story of unselfish wifely deyotion
which makes the novelist Barrie's
surrender Of his wife to a man she
loved better, or of Cato's sacrifice Of
domestic happiness, almost empty
cant.
Miss Laura Hudson, once leading
woman for James X. Haeilesr, and the
daughter Of Mrs. Emily Hughes Of
Denver, has caused the arrest Of Mrs.
Tyndall, asserting that she stole two
diamond rings valued at $500 Mrs.
Iyndall, resisting exsraditi1a to New
York state, says that it was in order
that she might leave her husband
that she took the rings TO pay her
way to distant city.
She felt that strong bond Of pla-
tonic affection had sprung up be.
tween Miss Hudson and him, SIC says,
which made her presence unnecessary.
She claims that Miss Hudson had pre-.
yiously given the rings Tyndall,
telling him to conveit them ITO cash.
Then Platonic Love Was
Found TO BE Not Enough.
According to Mrs. Tyndal, she and
her husband are mental mates, but an
attraction Of different klad, she
says, drew Dr. Tyndall to She actress
to whom he has devoted much of his
time of recent years. Mrs Tyndall is
cultured, educated wenan, the niece
of General John A. Logan She and
DR.. Tyndall had established the Adj
vanced New Thought society ii Chi
cago, with headquarters in the Mason
ic temple there. 1t was while they
were conducting meetings that word
came from New York that Mrs. Tyn-
dali was under indictment for grand
larceny with Miss Hudson as the
complaining witness. At first Mrs.
Tyndall refused to tell who had
charged her with crime.
Actress is Pretty
And tAmjahle Issl. l,s
eahe woman, said Mrs. Tyndall,
Is an actress and lovely girl. She
is pretty and amiable. She used to be
in Hackett's company, but lately has
not acted, Wig, wrote a vaudeville
sketch for her and my husband, think
ing they might as well make a good
living for themselves and be happy,
but they never got a hearing, so the
piece was not produced.
Eyes, / took the diamonds; but
did not steal them. didn't want to
say anything until the doctor came
back from New York, but in justice
to myself l might explain a few
things.
"Ten years ago my husband fell
in love with this girl, whose mother
lives in Denver, where we then lived,
and he seemed to be simply crazy ov-
er her. Neither he nor l had believed
in anything but mental mates, for we
were certainly that; but evidently
there is something else in life.
The Three Lived in One
House Without a Quarrel.
"Well, they eorresponded and he
stayed in love it seems. We came to
Chicago last June and this girl came.
through here, saw my husband, and
then she went to New YORK. lie fol
lowed her. 1t wasn't so long ago that
I went to New York, too. 1 realized
that those two couldn't live apart, and
was sensible about it. We all three
lived in the same house. She and
both had to have money, and the doc
tor was so in love that his work suf-
fered and consequently he was not
well off financially.
Then one day the girl said to him
that he might have her two rings
any time he wanted them to pawn.
She wrote it, too, and he has the let
ter. He didn't pawn the rings howev-
er, and gave them back to her.
Not Jealous, But Nervous
Over the odd Situation.
81 wasn't well in New York.
was nervous, and, of course, il was
more or less of a strain to live thel e
with them. 1 wasn't jealous, and !
knew that it must be all right. !
made up my mind one day that
would get out. l didn't quarrel with
either Of them, for had no hard feel
ings. l am too fond of them both.
81 didn't have any money to get to
my home in California, but the doctor
told me what the girl had told him
about the rings. | made up my mind
that would get them and pawn them
She was away when / took them out
of her trunk, but thought she would
be glad that l was gone, and / knew
