Before They Meet.

A real telephone romance will
come to a climax in the marriage
tonight of Miss Mabel Studs, 1913

vate Francis C. Dugan. OF Walter
Reed Hospital.
The couple talked with one an
other over the telephone almost
daily for twenty-six months before
they ever met. Dugan tired of the
telephone courtship about a year
ago and decided that the time had
come to meet his wire sweetheart
face to face. So they made an ap-
pointment and met for the first time
in a downtown theater.
The romance began one summer
night in 1920. when Miss Studs,
who Is an operator at the Cleva-
land exchange of the telephone com
pany, called Walter Reed Hospital
and asked for a soldier there named
Davis. Dugan. who happened TO
answer the phone, pretended to be
Davis and engaged Miss Studds in
conversation He finally disclosed
his identity and the twenty-sIx
months Of telephone courtship was
on.
The couple will be married at S
o'clock tonight by Rev. b. F. Ruley
at 1886 Wisconsin avenue nortn-
west. Julian Studds and Miss vir-
ginia Walker will be best man and
bridesmaid.

Self Defense Plea
Acquits Women
Admitted Setting Fire to
Negro Who Was Nearly
Burned to Death.

An act Of seIf-defense of a most
unusual type received the approval
of a jury in Criminal Court No.
yesterday and resulted in the ac-
quittaI of Lena Fortune and Dora
Vincent, colored women, on a
charge of assault with intent to
Kill.
These women admitted they
poured Iye on James Reed, also COL
ored, an admirer of the Vincent
woman, and then saturated his
clothing with gasoline and applied
a lighted match.
Reed was nearly burned to death.
So much skin had to be grated on
different parts of his body to save
his life that he looked more like a
white man than a colored man.
The women said they had been
beaten by Reed the day before and
that he came back the next day to
beat them again.
The alleged offense was commit
ted on May IA last at the home Of
the women at 21O21a l. street north
west.
In court yesterday both women
pleaded self-defense and the jury
accepted their plea.
