 Sally, Sally" he greaned dropping his face on his crossed arms, while his shoulders heaved in an agony of heartbreak, and his words came in the old, crude syllables: T lowed you'd believe in me ef hell froZe!" He rose after that, and made fierce gesture with his clenched fists. "All right" he said. bitterly, Pm shet of the lot of ye. Pm done!"
 But it was easier to say the words of repudiation than to cut the ties that were knotted about his heart.
 With a ranking soul, the mountain eer left New York. He wrote Sally brief note, telling her that he was go- ing to cross the ocean, but his hurt pride forbade his pleading for her con- fidence, or adding, q love you" He plunged into the art life of the other side of the Seine" and worked vora- ciously.

 One sunny afternoon when Samson had been in the Quarter Latin for eight or nine months the concierge of his lodgings handed him. as he passed through the cour, an envelope ad- colt. As he read 1t he felt glow of pleasurable surprise, and, wheeling, he retraced his steps briskly to his lodg- ings, where he began to pack.

 Then his thoughts went back to g cabin in the hills and a girl in calico He heard a voice like the voice of 3 song bird saying through tears:
 ''I couldn't live without ye, Samson

 For moment he was sick of his life It seemed that there stood before him in that place Of historic wraiths and memories, a girl, her eyes sad, but i loyal, and without reproof.

ACCUSED BY HUSBAND,
MRS. WHEELER WINS
Long Distance Charge of Perjury,
In Divorce Trial Against Ex-
Actress Ruled Out.

NEW YORK, June 5.--A long distance
accusation OF perjury was made In the
supreme court against Mrs. Claudia
Carlstedt Wheeler, a former musical
comedy actress. by her husband, Albert
Gallatin Wheeler, jr.. son OF tho Chi
cago subway builder, and now resi-
dent of that city.
Wheeler's charge was bascd on the
testimony of Mrs Wheeler and her wit
nesses in defending a suit for divorce
brought recently by Wheeler. in which
Mrs. Wheeler contended she was the
victim of conspiracy, and jury
brought in verdict exonerating her.
The suit on trial yesterday was
brought by Wheeler against his wife to
compel her to return furniture and brio
a-brac worth $12,500 which he said he
bought to furnish their apartment in
Central Park West. Wheeler had his
testimony taken by deposition in Chi
cago on the ground that he was too
poor to pay his fare to New York and
in the course of his testimony made the
charge of perjury in the divorce suit
Mrs. Wheeler was indignant when the
testimony was read and her attorney
declared that Wheeler didn't dare come
to New York for fear of being arrested
for $500 unpaid almony. He demanded
the testimony and Supreme Court Jus
tice HendriCk consented.
The jury returned a verdict for Mrs.
Wheeler.
