under the will of Thomas w. Phillips,
the late oil magnate OF Newcastle, ia.
Philips will, admitted TO probate

to crush the tesIator years ago as a
small competitor.

STRANGE CASE OF DUAL

women and minister are the fig
ores IN one OF the strangest case:
of dual personality that ever startled
community.
Rev. Frank Horn OF the First Bap-
tist church IL the minister, who, II
ID charged, has left a trail OF broken
hearts up and down the Pacific coast
Mrs. Eva Mae de Tovrea and her
mother. Mrs. NJ. c. Metz, are the two
women.
In 1910 Mrs. de Tovrea was mar
No trace OF her husband was ever
found. He disappeared completely.
Ono day recently Mrs, de Tovrea was
scanning a Richmond newspaper
when she noticed a picture OF the
Rev. Frank Horn. pastor OF the First
Baptist church.
She recognized him Immediately,
she declares, as her missing husband.
She told her mother, and accom-
panied by both her parents, MrS de
Tovrea attended services at the Rev.
Horn't church. Both parents ana
the wife positively declared that the
minister was the missing husband.
Then the storm broke. Mrs. de
royrea sued for divorce and named
Horn as her husband. She asked
SIS month alimony. Horn denied
Ii vigorously, declared he had never
seen the lady. wasn't married and
didn't intend to be married. Mrs. de
rovrea insisted. The Rev. Horn
took refuge behind the locked doors
OF HIS study and refused to see any
one. He intimated that Mrs. de
Tovrea's husband might be his twin
brother, the blacksheep OF the family.
Mrs. de Tovrea answered, "Bosh,
you're my husband"
When interviewers, deacons OF the
church and curious friends Of the &C
cused minister became too insistent,
the Rev. Horn fed to the church.
He set up housekeeping there for
FEW hours until his pursuers located
him. when he took refuge In the
belfry OF the church, and refused TO
come down. Then the deacons In
vestigated HIS study by means OF a
skeleton KEY. Here they found a
MAGNIFICENT assortment OF pictures
OF actresses and theatrical magazines
containing pictures of Indies In abb
breviated costumes In fact, the Rev.
Horns study resembled anything
rather than the place of thought OF
minister OF the Gospel.
And there the matter rests. Mrs.
de Tovrea is still suing for her d.
vorce and alimony while the police
are conducting a quiet investigation
OF their own about the various
charges against the accused minister.
Mrs: de Tovrea declares that for
years her husband has led a DR..
.JeIxyli and Mr.. Hyde life.

The probability is that very few

distressed country. There are two
leading factions, that headed by HUI

Both claim to be "the government" "
They are fighting each other daily
like semi-civilized sayages, and the
conflict grows more cruel and bloody
daily. Huerta has a slight advaut-
age in being at and in possession of
the national capital, but Carranza
seems to dominate about as much
territory as Huerta does. There ere
factions of robbers and murd 9rars.

recognize either Huerta or Carranza
as a legitimate representative of the
Mexican people. Property is being
looted and burned all over the coun-
try, railroads, mines and factories
are destroyed, and trade and agri-
culture languish or have ceased. To
put it in the plainest and briefest
terms, "hell has broke loose" in
Mexico, and no man can foretell
the end-when and what nature.
