Let's Cat Out Of the Bao.

Soh wv " N'S 0dQ.
Before Senator Brown Investigated
he told a good part OF the story. Later
he made AN Investigation and learned
that Mrs. Tower, jr.. was just as anxious
secret.
The marriage took place about two
years ago" said Senator Brown. and
il was planned 10 keep the matter Sc
cret until Mr. Tower was graduated
from Yale. This would have been pos
sible had il not been for the actions of
I 4 woman. We believe We know the
, identity of the woman who has been
calling up the newspapers. II our in
formation IL correct. she married
young man before he finished his col
, legc course. and later they had trouble.
But We cannot understand why she
, should seek revenge on the Tower fam
ily."
senator Brown explained that he had
not been retained by Mrs Charmange.
Tower. jr.. in this case. bat he was the
attorney FOR several estates of which
{ she was a beneficiary. and he saw
great deal OF her.
There Is no scandal i'm this case"
said Senator Brown. There will he no
divorce. Now that the affair has be-
come public. presume the young couple
will begin 10 live as most married
couples live.
II have great admiration for Mrs
Tower. She comes from family
prominent socially and a family the
members Of which move in the very best
-. -,
the same circle as do the Towers. The
Towers have absolutely no objection 10
the young woman: they simply wish 10
have the son finish his course at Yale"
Parents Not Much Disturbed.
From another source il was learned
thar although the marriage took place
two years ago IL was not until las.
Christmas that Mr.. and Mrs. Tower,
ST. were made acquainted with the
fact that they had n daughter-in-l law.
They are said 10 nave taken the mat
ter very quietly and To have sworn all
kept until three days ago when
the mysterious woman began telephon-
ing the newspapers. The first message
was request that an insertion ne
made in the society columns that Mrs.
Charlemagne. jr., had just returned
from New Haven, after visiting her
husband. who is Il senior at Yale"
This was not inserted in the society
columns. and to-day the second mes
sage was received. II was: See Sen
| ator Brown. who represents me, and ne
will tell YOU all about the details of the
Wedding.
Word was received from New Haven
this afternoon that some time ago
Charlcmagne Tower. jr.. was sum
moned before members Of the faculty
who had heard rumors Of his marriage
and was asked tn make a statement re-
garding these rumOrs. What answer
ne gave cannot be ascertaincd. Charlie
magnc Tower is about twenty-five
wears old He is Of a more or less sta
dious nature. and persons Of social
prominence in Philadelphia decIaia
that he did not seem TO care for So
cietv or for social affairs. This after
noon numerous members Of Philadcl-
phia society endeavorcd to remember
the name of single young woman u
whom he had paid any marked ittcn
ton during the last three years, but
without success.
