 I have never seen my husband look ridiculous before, but when he real ized that Major Grantland had neatly and effectually thWarted him. he pulled himself up so quickly that the effect to an onlOoker was distinctly ludicrous I heard little Mrs. Durkee chuckle behind me and hoped that Major Grantland did not notice her mirth.

half that the Department sof Justice again sent doctors to examine Dr. ! Muck. In the meantime there had been

Find No Evidence of Insanity. | A letter dated Feb. 27, 1919, and signed by the examining force of two ! men, states: ..a We have examined Dr. Karl Muck and find no evidence of any mental change whatever. There appears to ! be no evidence of on coming insanity. As a matter of fact. pr. Muck seems to have adapted himself unusually
 well to his environment, and so ap-
 pears on the date of this examina-
 tion."
 Boston has probably seen the last of pr. Karl Muck. Few people will now have the assurance to defend him, and fewer still venture to air his plans to return 10 Am erica. The public by this time knows what man. ner of a man Dr. Karl Muck was and is. The truth about him has been told. but not by any means the entire truth.
 There is still in the files of the gov ernment much against Dr. Muck that cannot be told in any newspaper. and perhaps never will be told.
 1t is possible that some day the Department of Justice will publish some of it's evidence against a few highly placed Germans like Count Von Bernstorff for instance, and let in little light on the personal char acter of men who represented a great government. Ii is safe to say that not one person in a million has the faintest idea of the character Of the evidence against some German propa gandists. Ii does not relate en- tirely to their activities against the American governm ent
 That might be excused in some cases by attributing it to excessive zeal for the fatherland. But there are phases of their lives in America so Grimly sinister that it amazed the officials of the Departmc of Jus ice. @%

 New York, Dec. 10.---A black velvet gown becomes even more distinctive when it joins forces with wide mill tary braid. The gown in the sketch has girdle ending in a long sash at the side, of military braid Other trimming is confined to side pieces of black net in which gold threads are interwoven. The placing of the slightly full widths of net at the sides emphasizes the straight panel effect of velvet at front and back.
 The straight loose lines of such a gown give the suggestion of youth which makes it a favorite.

FOX'S THEATER.

The big eight reel special produce ton, "The Honor System,' will be shown for the last time this evening at FoXs theater. where it has drawn eN
 ceptionally large audiences despite un- favora bIe weather conditions. The last half of this week another splendid bill of both vaudeville and pictures will be given. Charles Ray, one of the best of the younger stars, will appear in a very apt and exciting dramatic pro- duction 'The Sheriff's Son. Royal Beaudry whose father was slain by a gang of western outlaws in sight of his mother a few weeks previous to his birth. is born to a heritage of fear. Yet he is called upon to shoulder the re- responsibilities of life in the hills of New Mexico. where the same gang that killed his father are in full deviish power, giving all honest cattlemen lit tie chance to earn livelihood. To these wastes of barren hills to these plains of grazing cattle. to fight a, bat tie of justice and love with a black hearted and fearless gang of rustlers and murderers, comes the boy with an inhorn fear. that holds him in a mer- cilesS grip. Does he conquer his fear, does he manage to oust the gang of outla awS that men of braW and appar- ent courage have been wont to give wide berth. does he win the girl and do it all without strutting or heroic oVerbearins?

THREE, FACES EAST"


 Underlined for Parsons theater to- morrow for three days is Anthony Paul kelly:s intensely gripping mys- tery play, "Three Faces East" This delightfully."- thrilling stage offering held the boards of the Conan & Harris theater, New York. for one entire year and will be presented at Parsons Hartford. with the metropolitan cast including Miss Violet fleming. who created the role of Helene.
 Different from the usual story of German intrigue, possessing, little that is exaggerated, and carrying clima Nes that are timed With rare skill, Mr. Kelly has built a play that is worth While. It is rare picture of how the British intelligence department and the German spy system match wits how plots are met with cOunterplots--- how the fine art of diplomatic double crossing is carried to it's finest degree, and how men and women. are moved like pawns in the game of nations.
 It is a story of fierce passions domi- mated by love of country, passions hat must be held in restraint and only at rare intervals allowed to rome to the surface; that is what makes it so diff ferent.
 The action is vigorous throughout and mum Der of startling mechanical effect> are introduced which increase the tenseness and make it one of the best mystery plays presented to the Am merican theater- going public. There will be a matinee on Saturday.

:. Dr. Karl Muck,-the deported leader of the Boston Symphony orchestra, made attempts to get out of the clutches of the federal. officers who had him in custody. His recent inter- view given out in Berlin, to the eff feet that he will not stay in Germany, but will go to Switzerland recalls some of the remarkable statem ments made by him while under detention by the United States authorities. When he was first taken into GUS tody pr. Muck gave the federal off cers to understand emphatically that Germany was impossible for him that he would come to some great harm the minute he stepped foot on ] German sol-for his friends had de- clared that he had become too much of an American and in fact that he loved America greater than the father land.

 Dr. Muck even went 10 the extent of declaring that he wanted to be- come an American citiZen-that there was no flag like the Stars and Stripes and no land like AmeriCa-the land of the free. But Dr. Muck remained inmate of the Southern detention camp. His attempt to gain the free dom he desired failed misera bly,
 For few weeks nothing was heard from pr.

His friends again appealed to the Depart ment of Justice. If Dr. Muck was not released at once he would die they pointed out. It was then that a board of examining physicians was sent to the detention camp to exam inc the doctor. The board found Dr. Muck in excellent physical con diton.
 Powerful Machinery at Work.
 Again the name of pr. Muck dis appeared from sight and again his friends in the United States set the powerful machinery to work in anoth- CT attempt to gain his release. In February, 1919, the final attempt was made. Suddenly there came word to the Depa rtm ent of Justice that Dr. Muck was going insane--in fact. if he was not relea Sed at once his condi- ton was such that he would become dangerously insane. Washington was again sceptical. Dr. Muck's friends persist cd. and finally such powerful influences were set to work in his be
