MISS ANNE MORGAN
URGES PREPAREDNESS
Tells 200 Girls Some of Its
Opponents Are IHsincere.


Miss Anne Morgan, secretary Of the
Vacation Association, urged the need
of national preparedness upon 200
girls and denounced the methods Of
the "Anti-Prepardenss Committee, at
a meeting of the association held last
night in the Metropolitan Life Build
ing.
"Now is the time for US to sct,' she
said, standing by the folds OF the big
silk flag which the members of the Va
cation Committee had just presented 20
the Taxpayers Committee, amid the
roll of the drums of the Boy Scouts.
That's what We women must do to-
dav. when the city is placsrded by
statements, saying, The Truth About
Preparedness They don't even come
out fairly and sincerely and announce
on their placards that they are anti
preparedness believers
Later she admitted that she had re-
ferred to the anti"prepsredness' COM
mittee, and said that its head, MISS
Lillian Wald, was a wonderful woman
but working on the wrong tack. =.
Miss Maude Wetmore, chairman OF
the women's department Of the Ma
tional Civic Federation, and Miss Rop-
inson Smith, president of the Vacs-
ton Association, in acknowledging the
gift of the flag, also spoke for pre-,
paredness, and 200 girls, rising, saluted
The Red. White and Blue with the
strains Of america
The programme included rnytnTic
dancing by the members OF the pu
Four School and selections from 'he
Bow Scouts Orchestra.

HUNTER, SUICIDE,
CALLED MARTYR
Woman Named in Letter
Shown Just Before He
Began to Shoot.

Cap'n Bill Donley. outlaw, became
something of martyr in the eyes OF
his fellow baymen of Long Island yes
terday after he had eXpiated the crime
OF shooting wild duck out Of season by
committing suicide.
Hundreds of other Great South Bay
"skippers" came to see him, victim
OF a game law they always have con
sidered unjust, and it was evident at
the opening Of the inquest that an et-
fort would be made to put response
hility for Donley's death souarely up TO
those charged with the laws enforce
ment.
Coroner Moore OF Suffolk County,
who personally directed the inquest,
displayed considerable interest in tes-
timony concerning the activities Of
frank Milford, Donley's companion on
the cunning trips which led 70 his ar
rest.
Milford. whose real name is said 10
he Ferguson. was acting supposedly as
a detective for the State Conservation
Commission when he rented room IN
Donley's home II was he, the Coroner
was informed by Tom Spragg, who sug-
eested going after wild duck. And IT
was chiefly because Milford was not
present that Coroner Moore, who did
not conceal his desire to question the
man. continued the inquest until
april 10.

Neither Coroner Moore nor Assistant

VILE Lantene, the Most Admired Ever Knew E6
OF Whose Twice Violated Agane the WrTorn Ct,

An memorable fate pursued her as in a
Greek tragedy. On July q, 1911, when
she was only twenty-three years old and
at the summit Of her youthful beauty and
fame, she was mysterously drowned
from this boat. Edwards had excused
himself early and gone to his cabin.
After gay night Of singing and dancing.
In which much champagne was consumed.
Lantclme retired to her own room and
bolted the door a short time later.
after 1 a m, the guests on the boat
we're aroused by woman's cry and the
shouts Of Edwards. who had broken in
his Vife's door
Lantelme had gone overheard Her
body was not recovered until daylight,
Her delicate form, clothed only N G.
night garment, was kept tied by rope to
the stern OF the boat for twenty.four
hours until the authorities could perform
an autopsy.
What really happened in Lanteinle's
boudoir has always been mystery. Ac-
cording to the evidence ut the inquest
the guests were aroused by a cry. and,
rushing out, found NJ. Edwards in front
OF Lantelmes door. He told that he had
gone TO bed. hut then he felt something
was the matter with his wife He went
10 the door OF her room and knocked.
Getting no answer he called to her
Growing more alarmed. he shouted, and
it was these shouts that aroused the
others
All agreed that they had then broken
open the door They found the window
in Lnntelme's room wide open. but not
sign of Lante!me. There were no marks
OF any struggle. They looked out into
the racing river but saw nothing and
heard no cries. When they looked back
into the room they saw NJ Edwards in a
faint: They immediately lowered the
small boats and searched but could moi
iud her body that night.

in the Grave of the Woma,
Whose Tragic Death
Still Remains One of the
Great Enigmas of Paris?

In the coffin. Why had the thieves not
taken them? Here, perhaps, is the great
est mystery. The leaden coffin was deep.
ly scratched by sharp tools. While peer.
ing about this vicinity the investigators
found heavy spashes OF blood on the
ground. Similar splashes were found
all the way from the coffin up to the
entrance to the graveyard.
1t has been coniectured that the
thieves quarrelled over the coffin and
fought one another over it with knives.
But why did they all run away? Why
did not the victor or victors stay and
finish the work Of robbery?
1t was known to many that the enor-
mously valuable jewels given to Lantelme
by her millionaire husband, Alfred
Charles Edwards, proprietor OF the Matin
newspaper and head OF various wealthy
enterprises. were buried with her body
In her coffin. Among these was mag
nihcent pearl necklace valued at $50, 900
and an emerald necklace, also of great
value.
After NJ. Edwards had recoyered from
the illness which this attempt caused him
he announced that he had removed the
jewels following the outrage on the tomb.
Lantelme was the fourth wife of NJ.
Edwards, a strange character of mixed
English, French and Hebrew descent.
After her death his engagement was re-
ported to two beautiful young actresses
in succession. He died, however, with.
out marrying either of them, and then
to everybody's amaZement it was found
ne had left all his property to Mile.
Gabrielle Colonna Romano. also charm
Ing actress, but not one of the two charm
ing ones mentioned as prospective wife
Mile. Colonna Romano had been an in
innate friend OF Lantelme, and the ex-
PLANTATION accepted by Paris was that
some form Of devotion to his dead wife
caused "Buebeard" Edwards to leave his
property and her jewels to her friend.
These are but few outlines from one
OF the most curious and complex TRACE
dies of modern Partisan life Lucie
Lantelme was for a time the most popu.
lar and admired of Partisan beauties. She
was the daughter Of a Partisan concierge.
Her parents were of Polish origin and
her real name was Misia Godebska.
AS mere child she won success on
the legitimate stage-not only by her
beauty, but by her clever acting.
The most exquisite feature Of her
beauty lay in her deep, dark sad, wist.
full eyes-"the haunting eyes OF Ian
telme," as they were called in Paris.
Her husband in his last days, when he
knew that death was about to take him.
used to say:
"Those eyes! Wherever l 60 see
them-the wistful, the glorious eyes of
my dead wife"
Lantelme was married to the elderly
"Bluebeard" Edwards when a mere girl.
He gave her every ltxury-splendid
jewels, the most beautiful dresses in
Paris, wonderfully furnished house.
But her manner showed that she was not
happy.
Among their possessions was an ex-
tremely large houseboat, the Aimee, in
which number Of persons could live
luNuriously. In this beat they proceeded
with gay party of friends from the
Seine to the Rhine by way of the North

w to violate the grave of the ,un,
w happy Partisan beauty. Lucie
Lantelme?
For the second time since her myster
ious tragic death by drowning in the
Rhine, her grave in Paris has been
broken open by ghouls The exact rea-
son for the dissertation in each instance
remains uncertain.
The latest violation occurred on the
night of June 81. The grave is situated
in the historic Pere Lachalse Cemetery
in Paris. The ghouls raised up the heavy
slab OF the stone covering the >>vault
and then descended into It by means of
the ropes used by the grave diggers.
They broke through the heavy collins
of oak and lead that heldAthe body OF
poor Lantelme, but did not touch the six
collins OF other members Of the family
lying in the vault.
They dragged out the poor remains
Of her who had been the most noted
beauty OF Paris aud scattered them
brutally about the vault. What their oh.
1ect was 1t is impossible to understand.
1t is naturally suggested that they were
robbers in search Of valuables that might
have been left in the tomb. but Lantel-
mes jewels, originally buried with her,
had been removed after the attack on
her grave In 1911, and this fact was
widely known.
Magistrate Boucard has opened an in
quiry into the latest attempt on Lantel.
mes grave. Anhropometric experts
have taken records OF finger prints and
other marks left by the maraudcrs. but
no definite results have so far been
reached
Strange to say, there was much doubt
whether the previous outrage on Deem
Der 81, 1911, was really motived by rob-
berry. Although jewels Of great value
were then in the tomb, nothing was
taken. a correspondent who saw the
tomb Immediately after that violation,
gave this strange description Of the
scene:
"The violated vault showed evidences
OF frenzy of destruction. Not only we're
collins wrenched opep. but the mortu.
airy altar was smashed, the cross, statues
and vessels shattered and flung into a
disordered heap in one corner OF the
mausoeum.
"If there had been definite search
for the jewels alone of the dead woman,
the robbers would have devoted them
selves solely TO that quest and not have
wasted their time on these dreadful acts
of wild and unreasoning sayagery"
In order TO enter the vault the ghouls
were compelled to tear out iron bars and
break glass windows. There were many
marks OF chisels and wrenches on the
heavy eaden coffin. 1t was known that
the most valuable of Mile. Lantelmes
jewels had been buried with her.
When tho police reached the scene of
the outrage they first disinfected the
burial place. which is of polished stone,
eighteen feet high by fifteen feet square.
Mile. Vermelle, friend Of the dead
woman, was called to identify the jew
els NJ. Edwards was prevented by seri-
Gus illness from being present. He made
a statement, however, that his wife's
jewels had been buried with her under
a pillow beneath her head.
