ALICE BRADY. HAS
OWN IDEA OF7LOVE.

"Jf we love and are not beloved, we
do not waste our sweetness on the
desert air for any appreciable length
of time; We go further aneld-and
conquer"
That Is woman's modern, militaris-
tic viewpoint on love, according to
Alice Brady, daughter of William A
Brady, noted theatrical producer.
Miss Brady is to appear here next
week at the Belasco Theater In Tor
ever After"
Love is of mans life a thing apart,
'Tis woman's whole existence"
81 dislike that stupid couplet," said
Miss Brady emphatically. "You see,
1t is this way: we women OF this
century are not built on the Byronian
plan.
"our newer and more healthy out
look is the result OF education and Of
a changed economic system. We are
more self-reliant, more capable, and
to a hitherto undreamed-of extent
masters of our fate and captains Of
our SOUL
"No longer must love, especially
unrequited love, I'LL a woman's life
to the exclusion OF all else. Her the
ory Of values Is altered. Her inter-
ests in life are so many and SO va
ried that a broken one fails to dis
turb her equanimity unduly. There
fore, she relegates her shattered love
to the attic of her heart, where her
broken treasures of childhood lie and
sometimes she takes it out and dusts
1t with solicitude, but more often
than not she allows the dust OF years
to accumulate on (which Is both
naughty and neglectful, to say the
least of It, but very, very adorably
modern"
The laughter which had come to
her eyes during her peroration died
slowly away, as she added musingly:
~But love, real love, is very won
derful when 1t comes to q woman
with a career, and when mutual, 1t
is a thing of INFINITE possibilities.
Talent must blossom in the sunshine
of IT. And what a charm II lends to
success, for, as you know, II really
takes two to make a success-'the
dear one who does, and the dear one
who says, we'll done"

TRAGEDY IN LONG
VALLEY
Ed Dunn of Alpha Kills Brother and
Takes Own Life

Sheriff Dave Nichols and City Mar.
shall Kirk Landers, who returned Tues
day from Long Valley whittier they
had gone in search Of c. W. Ellsworth
brought news Of double tragedy
which took place Sunday night mean
Alpha, in which Ed Dunn killed his
brother Tom and then killed himself
with revolver.
In note left, Dunn explained how
the killing was done and left orders
for the taking care Of his property
by Long Valley citizens. He stated in
the note that he got up during the
night and, getting As calibre rsvol-
yer, got into bed with his brother Tom
shooting him through the head, kill
ing him instantly. He then got out
of the bed and went down stairs,
laid down upon an Indian rug OF
blanket, placed pillow under his
head and fired a shot through his
heart ..st.,.-.. -.
He explains a mark over his eye,
saying in the note that it was caused
by the recoil Of the revolver when ne
fired the shot that tore the top of his
brothers head off and spattered his
brains and blood over a large patch
Of the wall by the bed. This, it was
thought, was given to eliminate any
thought of there having been a quar-
rel between the bachelor brothers.
The theory of a quarrel is also elm
mated by the fact that Ed. Dunn had
willed all his property to his brother
Tom, the Thursday before the shoot
ing, when he made trip to Cascade
for that purpose.
III health is thought to have been
the cause of the rash act, as both men
had suffered for years from poor
health, and Ed had been heard to re-
mark on various occasions that he
dreaded to die and leave his brother
in such poor health alone in the world.
From these remarks, it is presumed
Ed had contemplated taking his life
and had willed his property to his
brother with this idea in mind; but
when the time came, the idea of leav-
ing his brother prompted him to take
his life also. The act was undoubted-
ly premeditated
In his note, Ed Dunn requested
Frank Kerby, the banker at Cascade.
a friend and business associate, to at
tend to his business affairs and to
take charge of his property. Lou
Heffner, a neighbor, was requested in
the noee to turn the stock out of the
barn and corrals of the ranch. The
joint property OF the brothers was
estimated to be worth from s35, 900
to $4,000. The only known heirs are
of other brothers living in
the east, and one niece living in Los
Angeles.
