With their high position in the world
Of society and their great wealth, hap
pineSs seemed assured and when two
little boys came to bless the union even
the most pessimistic thought that, per-
haps. after all. the artistic Elsie would
forget her art in the joy of her chill
dren and her home.
But it was not to be. Incompatibility
developed. and Mrs. Goelet began to de-
vote more and more of her time togart,
while her husbands hunting and yacht
ing trips grew longer and longer in du-
ration.
The first definite break came in the
summer of 1913, although it is said
they had tried each others patience time
and time again before then. Their
paths diverted more and more, and.
while they tried to keep up appearances,
II is known they occupied separate apart
ments and never were seen in public
together.
When Mrs Goelet was not locked in
her villa at Newport busy day after day,
night after night, with brush and
palette, she was pursuing her artistic
career in the studio of Henry Clews, Jr..
in New York. Her whole life. it seems,
was wrapped up in art. So devoted to
art was she that after the divorce Mr..
Goelet let 1t be known that three times
between the announcement OF their en-
gagement and the wedding she broke
her troth, each time giving as her rea-
son her desire to become an artist. The
engagement was renewed only after the
earnest pleadings of her suitor and her
mother.
1t was a difficult honeymoon, accord
ing to Goelet, but every time his bride
became pensive he knew the artistic
temperament was at work again.
So he would say to himself: "Ah! she
is thinking OF her art again" And then
he would hurry to the jewelers.. To di-
vert her mind from what seemed to her
husband to be an obsessiOn he lavished
fortune in jewels upon her. On the
birth of their second child, Goelet pre-
sented a 100000 pearl necklace to his
wife. But It failed to please her. She
picked it up, looked at 1t, and said:
81 would so much rather have a
studio fitted up with the money this
bauble cost"
"Great heavens!" exclaimed Goelet,
hasn't that ghost been laid YETI"
NO" replied the wife and mother. 'ii
is very much alive. l am more deter
mined than ever to paint really great
picture, and I shall turn my library
into a studio as soon as can"

E Lowe and Company to collect the judgment of nearly $3OO, ,000 against the Danbury matters as ''an effort to collect blood money" The judgment in this celebrated boycott suit was recently affirmed by the United States Supreme court.
 MT Lawlor made the statement in reply to a notice recently given by D. E. Lowe and Company that it would proceed ot collect the judgment by foreclosure suits, unless the hatters' union, at is coming convention, took reasonably prompt" measures to ad- just the damages
 Concerning criticism made by the company that the natter had not liv- ed up to their agreeme / to reimburse the individual defends 6s for damages, the statement says
 "The officers of the United Hatters of North America desire to state that whatever was done or left undone was for the best interests of the defend ants and their organization and we have no apology to make to D. E. Lowe and company for not taking them into our confdence''
 Mir. Lawlor says the matters are in te11igent enough to take care of their own affairs.

At the instance of Doctor AugSpurg of Munich, the entire Belgian delegation was invited to the platform.

HALF CITY OF COLON
 DESTROYED BY FIRE
Ten Persons Known to Be Dead
 10000 HomeIess-Loss $2,00o,0o0.

Colon, April 30.-More than half the city of Colon was swept by a disas- trous re which started shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon.
 Ten persons are known to be dead, including two native policemen and several hundred persons have been injured, while between 10000 and 12,- 900 others, mostly negroes, have been rendered homeless.
 The loss Is estimated at about $2,- 900, ,000
 The fire destroyed g city blocks and was not brought under control until twelve buildings in it's path had been dynamited.
 Many arrests have been made for footing. The town is now under the guard of the native police and two companies of the United States coast artillery.
 Half the population have lost all their belongings.
 The fire started in the heart of the city at Seventh and Boliver streets and soon was beyond control or the native fire brigade. The wooden build ings, of which the town is almost eX- clusiVely constructed, burned like tin der Most of the largest stores in Colon, all carrying heavy stocks of merchandise, were directly in the path of the flames.
 The cause of the fire has not yet been learned and probably never will be known.
 A high wind was blowing when the fire broke out and late in the after noon when it was spreading fast and myriadS of sparks were being car ried in the direction of the canal town of Cristobal, firemen in the canal zone began dynamiting buildings in order to form a gap at which the conhagra- tion could be stopped For a time these efforts were fruitiess, but later the fire was brought under control
 During the confiagration Colonel Adelbert Cronkhite, commanding the United States troops at Cristobal, or dered two companies of the coast ar tillery to aid the native zone firemen in fighting the fire and protecting the property. A fire brigade from Panama also came across the isthmus.
 All the banks in the city were destroyed and part of the railway sta- ton was burned. All that part of the city between Seventh street south to past Twentieth street and on Front street eastward beyond Boliver street was destroyed.

The statement says:
 'The officials of the New Haven company know of no dispute between the employees and the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad com pany. The relations between the off, cers and men are good and any slight differences of opinion as to rules and regulations are taken up and disposed of in an amiable manner, and so far as the officers of the company know there is no important question at issue today and the report that commission CTS of equalization have been appoint ed because of some labor dispute must refer to some company other than the New Haven"
