which filled her several trunks and bags.
 Convinced that she was no ordinary derelict such as the dope habit so oftel, leaves dead, they began patiently fitting together many bits of evidence from many different sources and finally iden- tiied the woman as Sara Cowen, the one socially prominent daughter of one of Baltimore's wealthiest and most fash ionable families.
 It was then easy to reveal enough of her history to make dishcarteningly plain the amazing change which had come over this ill-fated society helress in tho short space of ten or twelve years,
 Sara Cewen was born tn ens of the finest mansions in Baltimore. Her father, the late J. K. Cewen, prominent in politics and railroad affairs and the close friend of Grover Cleveland, was enc of the eity's nest influential men, Her eoming-eut party was the event ee the season and society acclaimed her the nest charming of buds.

wv 7 HEN policemen burst into the wv bedroom of a New York hotel
 suite few mornings ago and saw the beautiful nude body of young woman lying dead on the floor, they had no idea that this was anything more than another of the more or less com monplace cases of suicide or sudden deaths from natural causes which daily fill the police records of every great city.
 But, as they were to find out, this drama on which death had just rung down the curtain was of far graver i'm port than the usual run of life's dramas. It was too far-reaching, too complicated in it's ramifcations of woman's weak ness to be satisfactorily summed up in the cold, businesslike brevity of police blotter entry.
 The naked corpse of the copper-haired girl that lay stretched out before them formed the last word of story stranger than any fiction--the denouement of tragedy more swiftly moving, more re- lentless, more heartrending in it's con sequences than real life has often sup piled to grieve the heart of the world that such things can be.
 The drama in which this girl played the leading role to the bitter end had be- gun, as the police soon learned, in one of Americas most refined, wealthy and fashionable homes. In some of it's earlier and happier moments it's scenes were laid in the White House at Wash ington, and a President of the United States and his charming wife played their part in the weaving of the plots threads
 Still other scenes had for their back ground an exclusive girls finishing school and one of the best known women's colleges, and in these pleasant settings the little heroine-still happily ignorant of what lay ahead of her had for friends the cream of the coun- try's girlhood.
 School and college days over, tho action began to move more swiftly toward it's wretched end. In breathless succession there followed a romantic courtship--a runaway marriage in the Little Church Around the Corner-a brief portion of married bliss in a pretty suburban homeland then. divorce
 With dramatic suddenness the scene shifted to the gay night life of New York, London and Paris-to the haunts men call Bohemia--thc gilded realms where wine, woman and song. as the heroine of this real life drama was to learn so bitterly often make things more deadly to souls and bodies.
 Here she queened 1t as only girl of such youth, beauty and wsal,i, could in world all ablase with gieaniing lights and glistenng jewels and where the radiant magnifcence of everything was perpetually mirrored in seas of champagne.
 The air she breathed was intoxicating with the scent of rare flowers and costly
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-09-04

perfumes, the aroma of rich food and drink and all the other incense which the slaves of the senses burn to their feshly gods. Her day began at midnight and ended with the dawn, and in those hours her ears heard only the lit of laughter and dancing feet, music throb- ping like heart bursting with melody, corks popping, gold and silver chink- ing, the rustic of crisp banknotes, fire linens and shimmering silks.
 This was the life her pleasure-mad soul had craved, and she surrendered herself to it's deceptive joys with every fiber of her being and all the wealth at her command.
 All at once, just as her carefree whirl was at it dizziest, the sounds of gayety were strangely stilled-the bright lights grew dim or faded out altogether h fright the girl looked about for the gay friends who had been at her side moment before, but they were gone swallowed up in the ominous shadows that were sweeping over her.
 In the enveloping gloom she could see only spectral faces leering hideously at her-the grim visages of Habit and Poverty, Disease and Despair, and the other ghouls that lie in wait for weak mortals on the drab edges of the under world. And as they leered they stretched out bony hands to pluck at her silken skirt, to clutch uher throat, to draw her tremulous feet nearer and nearer the black abyss that yawned in the distance.
 With merciful swiftness at last came the end--on the floor of the bedroom where the police found her-just as the sun was dawning on a day which might have been, for girl reared as she was, fitness for others. She died alone and uncontrolled, with no one to hear her dying words-not even the man who for three days had posed as her husband in this hotel suite.
 And this girl, as the loving friends of other days who had long since lost sight of her, were shocked to learn, was nono other than Sara CAmbellina Cowen, daughter of a former millionaire prost- dent of the Baltimore and Ohio rail. road and once a reigning beiio in tho most exclusive circles of Baltimore so- c!esy. From the day she was born sho had enjoyed every advantage that great wealth can briag-tha finest of edu. cation. ths delights of foreign travel, the cestliest of dresses and Jewels and every other luxury, On her sighteenti birthday shs became wealthy In her ewn right, inheriting a fortune of sa,560,- GOO.

wedding day was set the engagement was broken and she became the wife of a close friend of her former fiance, Charles Monson, son of a retired Connecticut capitalist.
 Whether through her fault or not, the marriage proved unhappy. Within two years after she had stood before the altar she was obtaining divorce in a Western state on the grounds of intoxi- cation and non-support.
 To everybody's great surprise, Sara Cowen's father had left on his death several years before only moderate for tune. But shortly after Sara's divorce the death of her mother and an aunt swelled the total of her wealth to more than $2,500,00o. With this princely for tune at her disposal she cut every tie that bound her with her happy past and set out on the mad quest of pleasure that finally cost her everything she had to glve-even life itself.
 In the qualification of her sensual desires she quickly became as fla mlIlur Hgure III the DonemlAn haunts of London, Paris, Vienna and Berlin as she was in all the large cities of this country. Wherever she went she was instantly famous for her beauty, her unusual talents, her wealth of jewels and the predlgality with which she squandered money on the most extrava- gant entertainments. A champagne sup per at which she entertained round hundred of friends at fashionable New Yerh hetel some years ago still holds the record for eest for an affair of this kind,
 1t was in Paris, it is believed, that Sara Cewen acquired the drug habit, On this visit te the French capital she had fer her companion Roberta Menges- Csfw;n- Hill -Tearle-a strange associate indeed, fer the gently reared Southern belle, but one quite typical of the life she had chosen.

 amining the body and the significant bits of evidence scattered about the room were later confirmed by an au- topsy and laboratory tests. They left no doubt that under cover of the shadows of the underworld alcohol and heroin had once more joined hands to complete the evil work which had had it's beginnings amid the bright lights of Bohemia.
 In her dying agony poor Sara Cowen had vainly tried to bring to her fevered lips one last draught of the poison drug that had completed her life's ruin. Her lifeiess hand still clutched a glass half full of water in which white powder had been partly dissolved.
 It was only by the merest chance that the police did not let the dead woman pass Into the oblivion of Pottera Field under the assumed name which she and the man accompanying her had used when they registered. In that event the loving friends Of Sarah Cewen's happier days might never have known eff her death or ths distressing manner eff it.
 But the policemen were impressed with the striking beauty of the woman, the refinement which even the marks of dis sipation and the agonies of death had not entirely destroyed, and the richness of the jeweiry and wearing apparel

beauty the Pearl of Sheepshead Bay,s has kept the world almost continually gasping at her mad dissipations and her shocking waste of love and millions.
 Was it the former Roberta Menges who initiated Sara Cowen into the deadly perils of opium smoking, cocaine snifing and heroin taking? Was it she who led the sweet-faced Baltimore Belle into the ghastly world where the pallid, wild eyed dope fiends dwell?
 There seems good reason for believ. ing that it may have been through her acquaintance with the Pearl of Sheeps- head Bay" that Sara Cowen, already growing satiated with every other form of dissipation, became the victim of the drug habit.
 The records of the New York police show that in May, 1916, Roberta Menges was arrested by members of the Dope Squad" It was alleged that she offered the detectives $2,000 diamond ring if they would let her go, but the bribe was refused. When arraigned in court on tho charge of having habit-forming drugs in her possession, she pleaded guilty and was released on suspended sentence.
 With the drug habit firmly fastened on her, poor Sara Cowen's downward progress became still moro rapid. Her fortune melted away under the assaults of the hordes of parasites that gathered around her, as much as through her own extravagances, In less than ten years almost every penny of tho great fortune she had inherited was flung to the four winds and she was forced to look for work to supplement the income from the meager principal that was left her.
 She obtained an engagement ih tho movies and made trip to the West Indies te appear as one of the bathing girls in sThe Daughter of the Gods" Not satisfied with the recognition given her beauty and talent in this field she
