SHE GOT THE JOB
(Associared Press)

Duncan, Okla, June 25.-The first
woman sheriff of the southwest was
installed recently when Mrs. William
Gates announced as the chief plank
of Stephens county here.
"There will be no bootlegging OF
moonshining in these parts" Mrs
Gate sannounced as the chief plank
of her platform, and to prove she
meant what she said, she seized three
stills within week after she assum-
ed office.
Mrs. Gates succeeded her husband,
who while on his deathbed summoned
the three commissioners of Stephen
county and asked them to elect his
wife to the office. They promised that
they would do so, and that is why Mrs
Gates became the first woman sheriff
fthe southwest.
Mrs. Gates despite the fact that
she has accepted the responsibilities
of the sheriff's office in county near
the oil fields where there is an incli-
nation to disregard laws, is feminine
and domestic. She has never before
appeared in public life, and her time
and energy have been devoted to her
hCme.
The inside work of the Office has
been assumed by the woman sheriff
who dictates its policies, while the
outside tasks of riding, serving pap
ers and hanging prisoners is delegat-
ed to three male deputies. "My hus-
bapd'c DolieieS were satisfactory TO
Stephens county and | will follow
clsely in each step of his career" Mrs
Gates said.

Vanderbilts Silent
On Cable Report of
Szechenyi Divorce
Hungarian Nobleman Said
To Be Preparing Action
Against the Daughter of
Wealthy House, Who Rc-
turned Here in 1919

Reports cabled from, Budapest that
Count Laszlo Szechenyi is preparing to
bring suit to divorce the Countess, who
was Gladys Vanderbilt. daughter of
Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, were re-
ceived yesterday without comment by
relatives of the Countess. a message
to "The Chicago Tribune" said that
the Count is mentioned as the next
ruler of Hungary, but that it was un-
likely that the Countess would return
to that country.
Countess Szecheny returned to
America last September, accompanied
by her four children -Cornelia, ten
years old; Alice, eight; Gladys, six,
and Sylvia, sixteen months. At tha.
time rumors Of an impending separa-
ton were denied. Since her return the
Countess has resided at her homo at
Tuxedo Park
be seen yesterday in reference to the
report of impending t;-orce proceed
ings. At the home Of Mrs, Harry
Payne Whitney, a sister of the coun
tess, it was said that no comment
would be made.
Attorneys for the Vanderbilt family
said they knew nothing of the coun-
tesss affairs.
The Szechenyi wedding ceremony
took place on January q, 1908, in the
Vanderbilt mansion in Fifth Avenue.
1t was one of the most brilliant we'd
dings New York society ever witnessed.
When America entered the war the
countess, because of her marriage, was
technically recorded as an enemy
alien. Her estate in this country,
valued at $8,975O00 and consisting
largely of stocks and bonds, was
seized by the alien property custodian.
Reports came later that the count had
lost great part of his fortune in the
war.
The Countess szechenyi's eldest
brother, Brigadier General Cornelius
Vanderbilt, served with the American
forces
