rather a conventional finish. He is
even reported to have given his boy
a deathbed message that followed
the line of "Go straight, son."
A Robber by Inheritance
Henry Starr came naturally by his
talents as desperate. Among his
direct ancestors there were:
"Uncle Tom" Starr, one of the
most dangerous men in the Cherokee
Nation; Belle Starr, known ss the
"Queen of the Bandits; Cole Young
er, an uncle by marriage, and George
("Hopp") Starr, his father. He
came as near being full-blooded
bad man as any in the profession.
Back in December, 1873, he was
born near Fort Gibson, Indian Terri
tory, of Scotch-Irish-Indian blood,
his father a halfblood Cherokee In
dian and his mother a quarterblood.
They brought him up "down on the
farm" His early culture took the
form of riding and shooting, prin-
cipally shooting. When his father
died and the mother married again

stopped off for a brief rest. De-

for months, caught him off his guard
and placed him under arrest. They
took him back to Fort Smith, Ark,
for trial.
Murder and l3 Robberies
When he faced the judge in the
Federal court there he had nothing
against him but murder charge and
thirteen separate counts for rob-

everything was rosy until he dis

The Stroud Robbery

Shortly after this Starr conceived
and executed the most sensational
feat of his career, the famous Stroud
bank robbery.
With two other men he walked
quietly into the Stroud National
Bank at Stroud, Okla, and called
Hands up" Just block Gown the
street four other members of the
gang were invading the First Ma
tional Bank with the same command.
Dangling in the front door of the
Stroud National Bank was a bic
placard, signed by the Governor Of
Oklahoma, reading:
New-York tribune., 1921-03-20

from Oklahoma. 1t was a leisurely
affair, in broad daylight. The in
timidated residents of the village,
fearful Of Starr, hung back while the
gang carried away $4,000 in cash
from the bank.
BY this time Starr had become so
notorious that he thought it was
time to leave the country. He said
goodby to his gang and drove over
land to Emporia, Kan, with his
sweetheart, whom he planned to
marry. They intended to make their
ultimate home in Mexico.

everywhere, but, as he later ex-
planned, nine-tenths of the farmers
in the country were his friends,
ready to shelter him, to lie for him,
to stand guard over him while he
slept. He went to festivities
throughout the countryside, to
dances, where volunteers maintained
guard at the door on the lookout
for the deputies.
To show his contempt for. the

Of the gilded young men, the richer

Members of the Embassy, particu-
larly the Spanish and American,
regularly make up parties to dance
there and sit out on a wonderful
staircase built especially for that
purpose.
The two most exclusive clubs in
London at present are the Hyde
Park and the Riviera. The latter, a
comparatively recent enterprise, is
about the most. eloquent expression
in London of the reaction againss

A variety of reasons, apart frcn,

signed for the growing popularity Of
the clubs, not the least being the
question Of expense. Admission to

is conditional on dinner there. and
society folk are no keener than orii-
nary folk to pay SIS or 500 for every

The usual annual club subscr;p-
i;on is $21, with two-dollar charge
for every guest brought in by +
member. There are, it is tr.e, Clubs
where an expensive dinner is fea-
ture, but there is no obligation on
the member who wants to dance, am:
not to sample an elaborate menr, to
buy that dinner. His subscription
gives him lease of the dancing
floor and lounge, and that is all
that the majority of the regul1r
dancing set desires.
The clubs fall, roughly, into two
classes-dance clubs pure and SIM

United States Supreme Court Starr
was sentenced to three years in jail
for the murder and ten more years
for the robberies.
He had served nine years of the
sentence when President Roosevelt
pardoned him in 1902.
IF I let you out will you go
straight" Roosevelt asked him.
"Sure," said Starr, and the first
reformation" was under way.
A year later he married Miss Ollie

their pretty young wives. Lady
Carbery and Lady Kitty Vincent,

This arbiter elegantiarum among
the clubs is housed in the reproduc-
ton Of Roman villa built on the
river side of Grosvenor Road by Gil
bert Scott for Sir Arthur Stanley
Lord Derby's son. Few saloons in
the Rue de la Paix could surpass its
ballroom as an effective setting for
frock and pose. The room, pure
and elegant in line and pro-
portion, is simply white marble
hung with black velvet, with
sharp angle and hard surface sof-
tened away by hanging lamps, which
diffuse from their thick, lemon-shad-
ed domes tinted effulgence. At the
far end "a dim antechamber accom-
modates an orchestra of three under
the leadership of the son of Mrs.
Kendall, the great actress of a by
gone generation. At the far end
deep-embrasured windows reflect the
moving red and blue lights of the
nocturnal river traffic. Similar win
dows along one side give on POM

fourth to the river. When the moon
is high and the river tide is tapping

he left home to do his own shooting.
1t seemed the only way.
Before he was nineteen years old
he had landed in Jail. His cellmates,
an aristocratic lot of horse thieves
and highwaymen, hooted him down
as greenhorn. They even init
mated that he was being held on a
false charge. 1t was bitter persecu-
ton for young man trying to get
along. But he put up brave front.
He thrashed the sheriff in fist fight
and defied the jailbirds who gath
cred around to taunt him.
When he was released next day
