THE SILENT WOMAN
\ SEARCHING STUDY MRS APPELBAUM-DD SHES FIRE THE
SHOT THAT HUSBAND?

what are you?" is given with averted
head-hands held to her features and
plaintive, sobbing notes that are in
audible and unintelligible
Since her arrest Tuesday none have
seen her face. No one can guess what
lies behind the heavy black mourning
veil which within an hour after her
husbands dead body was taken from
the floor Of their bath room in the Da-
kota hotel she pinned to her hat and
drew a somber curtain of gloom over
what may be pretty features lighted
with the light of innocence-or what
may be the lack luster eyes Of guilt
the shifting eye-the dropping mouth.
Hines Behind Veil.
In her talks with the detectives the
black veil still covered her unknown
features. In her police station cell the
mysterious covering was not raised,
When she was taken before the coro-
ner's inquest during the late day the
ebony hued mask yet draped her fea-
lures.
On her trip to the Tower and even in
her cell the woman chung to her tragic
incognito, burying her face in the pill
low of her cot and aiding her effort to
hide from view by putting her shapely
hands to her eyes.
From the few scant fragments of
description gathered from the few per-

sons who saw the woman before she
donned Deaths bridal veil, she is a
pretty little creature Of fate.
Mrs. Appelbaum weighs about 10
pounds. Her trim ankles show allur-
ingly from beneath a black skirt, as
she steps haltingly from side to side Of
her Tower room. Small, wel-shaped
hands pick idly at the seams of her
dress or wander over her face in ges-
lures of despair, shielding her covered
features as best they may.
An Interesting Face.
Heavy coils of dark brown hair are
piled high on the woman's shapely
head. Little curly tendrils nestle close
at the nape of her white neck. Dark
eyebrows, slightly arched, give spirited
expression to her plump, fresh face.
Blue eyeS-the kind that hold latent
f1re-are glimpsed hiding beneath
lashes of darker brown, while an up
lifted nose and slightly bowed lips
complete an interesting face.
But those who saw that not unat-
tractive countenance persist in their
query, why does she hide from the
world?"
Does her personality carry some
deadly allurement-some lethal potion
which she fears will become known and
bring shame upon her?

Hiding her identity from the world
wrapping herself in a tragic pail OF
silence, Mrs. Catherine Appelbaum
woman of mystery, held in the Tower
while grand jury probes her nus
bands mysterious death, proves to be
an enigmatic problem rlvaling the deep
battling personality riddle presented by
Mrs. Daisy Opie Grace, she of the Loop
ard skins.
Who is this trim little woman who
Conceals her face from the world? Is
she the vampire limited at by the coro-
ner's jury pointing a finger of suspicion
in her direction-even casting the as
persion of reasonable doubt upon her
name and character in the manner Of
Jerry Appelbaums sudden death?
Is she the Woman of the IRON Mask
who dares not unbare her features be-
fore the gaping crowd that all may
know her and read IN her eyes her in
nocence or perchance her guilt?
Fears Recognition?
Is she broken spirited-ashamed-
cowed before the mob? Does she fear
recognition acknowledgment of her
identity by the passerby or the Jail Wis
itor?
She alone can answer. But her only
reply to the question of who are you?

BURNS DETECTIVE
AGENCY SECURES
20-YEAR CHARTER

All objection to the establishment of
branch of the William j. Burns Ma
tional Detective Agency in Atlanta was
removed today when Superior Judge
Bell granted the organization a 20
year charter.
The incorporators of the agency are
William j. Burns. Raymond p. Burns,
Edward Q. Niles and Carl Hutcheson.
The last two are residents of Atlanta.
When application for charter was
filed in superior court some months
ago, objection was raised to the in
corporation on the grounds that the
Georgia law required a residence of a
certain number of years as a qualifica-
ton for the establishment of a detec-
tive bureau.

FROM THE PINE WOODS
HYOMEPS Aromatic Air Is Guaran-
teed to Relieve Catarrh or
Cost Nothing.

HYOMEI is natures true remedy
for catarrh. There is no stomach
dosing in using HYOMEI, no more
than there is when you go to the
mountains or the seashOre to get re-
lief from lung troubles
When using the HYOMEI treat
ment. the air YOU breathe is like that
on. the mountains high above sea
level where the pine woods fill the
air with aromatic healing that gives
health and strength to those suffer-
ing from diseases of the respiratory
organs Breathed through the neat
pocket inhaler that comes with ev-
cry outfit, the healing balsams of
HYOMEI reach the most remote air
cells of the throat. nose and lungs,
destroying all catarrhal germs and
giving quick relief.
HYOMEI pronounced High-o-
mel has performed almost miracu-
lOus cures Of Catarrh, often restoring
health in chronic cases that had
given up all hope of recovery. Its
best action is at the start OF the dis
ease when the breath is becoming
offensive, and when discharges from
the nose, droppings in the throat and
frequent sneezing, shifting or spas
mode coughing begin to make life
burden. AT the first symptom Of
catarrhal trouble, such as shifting
and hawking. use HYOMEI' and see
how quickly you get relief.
The complete outfit costs but
$1.00, extra bottles If later needed,
so cents, and is sold under guaran-
tee to refund the money if it does
not give satisfaction. Druggists ev-
erNwhere.

DOCTOR CALLED AS WOMAN
COLLAPSES AT THE TOWER

Her mental and physical exhaustion
seemed to pass from her as the night
advanced. As soon as the lights in the
grewsome Jail corridors were dimmed
1t is said by the night guards that the
little woman crept to her cot, undressed
for the night and was soon asleep
Mrs. Appellants case will not reach
the grand jury today. That much is
reasonably certain. .~,.. ...
Solicitor General Hugh Dorsey ami
Assistant Solicitor Stevens are author
ity for the statement that the meeting
of the grand jury committee this after
noon will embrace no regular business
but VIII deal simply with the straw bond
probe they are now investigating.
The solicitors declare, however, that
Mrs. Appelbaum may face possible in
dictment by Friday, when the regular
session of the grand jury meets for
routine business.
Attorney John Moore. chief counsel
for Mrs. Appelbaum, said this morning
that no effort would be made to get bail
or have the bail fixed in Mrs. Appel
baum's case until after Friday. when
the grand jury is expected to act.
There is no necessity for hurried ac-
ton in the matter" said MI Moore
I'VE are communicating with Mrs. APP
pelbaum's friends and when the time
comes to offer bail we will most likely
be prepared to do So"
1t was rumored about today that
Mrs. Appellants attorneys were al
ready laying plans to conduct her de-
Tense along lines similar to that used
in the Grace case The two affairs
parallel in many particulars-in fact,
they are startlingly similar
The success of these lawyers in that
celebrated trial leads to the report
that they viii undoubtedly place Mrs.
Appelbaum on the witness stand
should she be indicted and get trial,
and allow her to tell with her own lips
the story through which they hope to
free her.
The investigation into the personal
affairs of Appelbaum proceeded rapid
~ today. Already a trail leading to
many cities has been uncovered where
Appelbaum had lavished his atten-
lions upon many women.
Appelbaum is known to have had
two wives before he married the wom-
an in the Tower. How many more
affairs of the heart the dead man may
have been vitality interested in will
probably be told when the authorities
here complete their searching and
wide investigation.

THE DEAD MAN

Jerry Appelbaum--Don Juan"
No epitaph will probably ever be
more fittingly craven on the tomb Of
the man who met his death quickly and
mysteriously in a tiny bath room of the
Hotel Dakota and who. it is limited,
was shot down for his indiscretions
with women py a woman fired by jeal-
Gus rage.
Appellants trail of wounded femi
nine hearts foolish loves and Lotharian
amours is almost continent wide in
scope. His record reads like a page
from Byrons immortal tale of the pas
sionate Spanish cavalier.
Born in South Carolina, from what
can be CLEANED through investigation
into his effects, this young fellow,
scarce one score and ten years of age,
crowded into his life enough love af-
fairs to have surfeited the most ardent
of the Greek deities-those love-wise
sovereigns who lived upon Olympus
A Tangled Love Record.
Appellants early life record is all
but a blank His tangles with Dan
Cupid started, it is judged. about his
twenty second year.
Appelbaum married a pretty country
girl in the state of the Mormons. He
met the unsophisticated lass while Wis
iting her home city as a travelling man

any longer, and that she was going to
work to earn her own living.
Il still attempted TO discourage her.
but she ended the conversation with
the statement that I was Just like all
women-that all my sympathies were
with the man.
When my telephone rang early next
morning I was sure something dread
full had happened to that woman. Some
one at the hotel told me that Mr.. Appel
baum had committed suicide and asked
me to come. up to be with his wife My
first impulse was to go. Then l thought
of the possible uotoriety and its eff
feet on my children. I told my room
mate my thoughts and she bluntly sug-
gested that Mrs Appelbaum might have
killed him. ! thought her remark cruel,
but did not have the courage to 90 to
the poor woman"
Statements Of this woman and other
evidence carefully collected have
cleared the mystery of the identity Of
Mrs Appelbaum. While she shrinks
situation and appears a frail broken
creature, her record reveals her as
somewhat different.
Some years ago she conducted we'll
known boarding house in Montgomery,
Ala. and was known as Calie Scott.
II is said that she came from Brew
ton. Ala, q small town near Montgom-
cry, and that her parents are an aged
couple, Nj. and Mrs j. X. Scott, who
are living there now, the owners of a
fine plantation.
She was reputed to be quite wealthy
when she married James Keller. OF
Montgomery Keller established the
first garage in Montgomery with her
money. it is said, and for several years
the two lived life of unusual luxury
IN Alabama's capital. Then suddenly
they separated.
Last winter she came to Atlanta as
Mrs Catherine Keller and announced
that she was the agent of toilet arti-
Gle house She stopped at one of the
best hotels and was groomed in stun

was then that she made the acquaint-

past life today and. ii is said, Appel
baum then first began serious court
ship of her.
"She was so beautiful then and every
man she passed turned to look at her as
she passed" said the woman. she
was so different from the woman who

The collapse of the central figure in
