Across the murl<y December sky
moved black clouds of smoke that
belched forth from great mills
where mighty fires burn to make
steel for railroads that span huge

afar. and for monster dreadnaughts
that play their part I'm the monster

Irene Fenwick, one Of the most beau
tiful actresses on the stage, accord
ing to a report in theatrical circles

respondent was kept secret.
The marriage on June 10, 1904, Of

most as famous as that of her hus-
band, came as surprise to theatri-
cal circles, and even his most inti-

nounced his engagement to Miss
Angela McCauIl, daughter of Col.
John A. McCaull, Of comic opera

with the murder of Mrs. Theima

There was much speculation as
to whether or not Mrs. Bertha

known as the other woman In she

Although she was listed as a COM
witness 1t was intimated
that the prosecution was reluctant
to have her testify, because Of the
fact that she had repudiated GER
tain statements credited to her in
a sworn affidavit which the police
claimed to have obtained from her
several days after Mrs. Richardson
was fatally shot on the premises
of her former employer at 2o18
