END OF HUG ROMANCE
Won BY One, Actress Seeks Divorce
Because OF Others.

It was a strange hug that started
the marital careers OF Leslie Morosco,
actor and brother Of Oliver Morosco
prod icer of plays, and Miss Dorothy
Holmes. 1t was an otf-stage hug that
brought about the probable ending OF
the stage romance, for the second
hug was not for Mrs. Morosco.
Hence the trial before Justice Guy
Morosco. against her actor-manager
husband, In which the court reserved
decision, a mere formality In unde-
Tended case OF that kind.
The couple met for the first time il
1910 in the Harlem theatre at a
rehearsal of vaudeville sketch call
ed The Million-Dollar Wife,"
Morosco had come from Los Ange-
les, Cal, and his part In the sketch re-
Quired that he hug the leading Wo-
man The latter was Miss Holmes.
Miss Holmes had never been Rugged
before with quite that same Western
fervor, and she liked it. As for Nor
CISCO he, too, thought it was great
Within a few days, therefore, from
that first meeting, Miss Holmes and
Nor SEQ signed, In Hoboken, to en-
brace for the rest or their lives.
One night, few years later, Mrs.
Morosco received telephone message
from Eugene Collins, an actor, telling
her that her husband was not confin-
ing his hugs to his WIFE, She inves-
tigated, and the suit followed.
Mrs. Morosco told the court that
she did not want any alimony.

Sharks Guard Germans.

New York, Oct I'm dock, after a
record breaking run Of 10000 miles
from Auckland, New Zealand, without
stop, the officers or the White Star
Line freighter Delphic told OF 5000
German prisoners Of war over whom
England had placed nature as a
guard.
The prisoners of war are ON an
island off Auckland, where the sea
provides prison wall and the nu-
merous man-eating sharks infesting
those waters prove efficient sentineIs.
II was matter or debate among the
officers whether the sharks were
there because they we're anti-German
or because they like Germans.

Kisses and Blows i'm Error.

Edward Settler, youth or 18, who
lives with his father, Jacob, at 1919
Avenue G, is thinking today OF grow
ing beard or in some other way Of
changing his appearance. His good
looks got him score of kisses, hug
ging, then a beating, and finally a
night In cell, all within the last "a
hours.
He was III Sheriff street near Hous-
ton the other evening when pretty
Mrs. Tillie Tuchband, who is 20 years
old and lives at SO Columbia street,
rushed up to him. She threw her
arms around his neck, Rugged him
tightly and between a flood of kisses
demanded:
oh, Joe, dear, my dear husband,
why did you leave me?'
Edward, mortified and embarrassed,
tried to free himself and explain that
he was yet to acquire a wife, but the
pretty Mrs. Tillie wouldn't have it.
She stopped his words with her kisses
while a good-natured crowd gathered
and cheered.
The temper OF the crowd changed
to anger when he denied the attractive
girl and drove her to tears. Present
~ Mrs. Tillie few at him, shaping
his face and beating his face with her
fists. The crowd stopped him when
he tried to run and Policeman Curley
arrested him.
The prisoner was arraigned in the
domestic relations court, for Mrs.
Tuchband had got a warrant for her
husband when he left her In Septem-
Der Of last year. The young woman,
in tears, declared there was no doubt
of Edwards identity. Her niece
identified him also, and Edward was
i'm panic until Mrs. Tuchband's par
ents declared he was not the man.

An old hunter tells of curious ex-
perience he had some years ago In the
Ozarks. He had been tramping all
morning when he came upon a grove
of trees, and, feeling tired, he stretch
ed himself in a shady spot and fell
asleep. He says:

if for spring. She crouched lower
and lower and kept drawing her feet
fastened on the mound of leaves all
the time and swayed her tail from side
to side with slow, regular motion.
When she had gathered her feet as
close together as she could she sprang
for the pile of leaves. She landed in
the very middle of the pile and gave
several long, wicked rakes with her
hind feet. Then she began to smell
and scratch in the leaves 1t didn't
