Pleasantville. n. Y, May 5.-There
is no word yet from Cleveland. but
Donald Shields Andrews and his "prin-
cess" bride do not seem to miss 1t.
The JOY Of their honeymoon in the
pink and white hills Of Westchester

trality maintained by the bridegroom's
parents in Ohio.
"No, we haven't heard from any
body" smiled Mrs. Andrews to-day,
"and we don't much care. We are so
happy Just by ourselves we don't want
TO see any one at all"
Mrs. Andrews, who until last Satur-
day, was Mrs. Alma Vetsera Hayne,
when she eloped with the Yale senior,
still maintains her studio at "a West

SEA BURIAL COSTS $4,000
Steamship Company Ordered
to Pay Dead Mans Son.

H. Blair Finley was awarded judg-
ment for $4,000 yesterday by Justice
Shearn, in the Supreme Court, for his
mental suffering due to the action Of
the Atlantic Transport Company in
burying the body of his father, Glenn
ent B. Finley. at sea from the steam
ship Minneapolis.
Justice Shearn pointed out that the
body was buried at sea on a voyage Of
the Minneapolis from England to New
York. The steamship officials took
charge of $3.50 the dead man had with
him, which the court held was more
than sufficient to have betrayed the ex-
pense of notifying the family of Mr..
Finley of his death and the embalming
and transporting Of the body to this
port. where it might have had decent
burial

blush as | tell it, but I accepted them
quite coqucttishly!
All went we'll and they did not in
terfere with out taking pictures until
one OF our actors, dressed as a medi-
cine man, stepped out in full view
ready for his scene With one ac-
cord, the Indians all arose and cir
cled around us, mumbling in cultural
sounds, which by their tone were any
thing but pleasant. Mr.. Griffith ask
ed one of the Indians what was the
cause of their uneasincss, but at first
he wouldn't tell US. They glared at
us and finally three or four of them
walked up to the actor, threatening
him savagely. They sent for their
council and from them we found out
the actor had on a beaded belt sacred
to their gods and they looked upon
it as sacrilege, believing US to be
making fun of their pagan creed.
On the Warpath.
Mr.. Griffith explained to them in
every language but Indian how much
we respected their religion, but they
were now on the warpath and the
whole village circled around us like
a swarm of reused hornets. They
threatened to destroy our camera,
and the actor who had caused the up
rising almost despaired of getting
away alive. OF course we were all
scared to death except Mr.. Griffith,
and his only worry was because we
had not finished the picture and had
three or four more scenes to take.
He had noticed how we'll I stood in
the favor of the Indian boys, SO he
set me about the entertaining of them
to distract their attention while, in a
desperate hurry, he took a couple of
scenes.
This further antagonized them, and
he was called into the council cham
Der. He gave us instructions how .
certain scene he wanted should be
taken and left us, our knees tremb.
ling like aspen leaves, but our minds
made up to do or die!
We pretended we were finished and
made our way through the crowds to
the station, where we sat as If watch
ing for the train. One by one they
slipped away and, finding ourselves
alone, we sneaked to the location Mr..
Griffith had pointed out to us. 1t
was scary business and there was
little time for rehearsal. In fact, we
had no sooner taken it than a band
came over the hill and started after
us. We ran as fast as we could pell-
NELL through the village and back to
the station. Mr.. Griffith had just ar
rived there and the train was due in
few minutes. If the train had been
delayed there is no knowing what our
fates would have been, but we scram-
bled aboard just in time.
When told Jack all about it he
said: Gee! Mary, but wouldn't your
curls have made a peachy trophy if
the Indian chief had scalped youw
1t was long time before l did my
second Indian picture.
