years ago killed a customs officer on

AT the time of her arrest here the
Scott woman had in her possession a

had made her way to Butte. This
same car. which bears a South Dakota

Canadian border into Montana, accord

stairs of his villa on the shores OF
the Mediterranean. He had been
cruising in search of his health, bu1
now joy was the uttermost to him
There WIS only his wife to see there
was the little stranger who had ap.
peared since his departure and OF
whose event he had been informed by
wireless. He had not sent word that
he was returning, for he wanted to
surprise his wife.
His appearance shocked the maid,
who turned involuntarily toward a
closed door. Lenoi walked to it eag-
erly, but the maid sprang in front of
him as it to prevent him from en-
tering the other room.
He thrust her aside, but at that
moment the door opened and LenOi'S
wife, carrying a tray, backed out of
the room, banter on her lips. Lenoi
stood as if petrified at the sight he
beheld within the room.
AS his wife turned and saw him
the smile froze on her face, the tray
dropped to the floor nd she shrieked.
Lenoi sprang toward her with clench-
ed fists, but his arms dropped impo-
tently to his sides. Sudden determ-
ination clouded his face nd, seizing
a pistol, he aimed it at the persons
in the other room.
Galvanized into action, his wife
sprang in front of him.
81 love him, don't Shoot" she
pleaded.
There was agony on Lenoi's face
as he lowered the pistol. Then he
hurled the weapon upon the floor,
brushed his wife aside, and seizing
his young son, hurried to the yacht.
Then began one of the strangest
cruises in history, for it ws twenty
five years before his son left the YES
sci or beheld the sight Of a woman.
