Besides, he realizes that America is the
land of opportunity, and that if he stays
here long enough and applies himself to
his work, he may some day be the presi-

Who can tell?
Young Mr.. Vonsiatskoy-V Vonsiatsky has
had his eye toward America for some
time, ever since he first met the rich Mrs.
Ream in Paris. That was in 1920, the
year in which "this preposterous girl"
says Vonsiatsky married her in Russia.

fled from Russia after the down fall Of
the monarchist chiefs, Kolchak and Deni-
kin, whom he served as aide-de-camp.
He met Mrs. Ream. She had been di-
vorced by Redmond d. Stephens, Chi
cago attorney, on grounds of desertion.
, Mr.. Stephens's complaint was that his
wife could not settle down. She was too
fond of travel. When he came home ex-
pecting dinner he would find that she had
run over to Paris for the weekend. In
fact, she had none of the domestic ambi-
tions she has demonstrated in her second
marriage.
At any rate, the young Russian officer
saw Mrs Ream, who had readopted her
maiden name, and Immediately realized
that she was his own true love. 1t is true
that she was just twice his age at the
time, but that made no difference. The
years had given her poise and understand
ing. He felt that she, of all the women
in the world, understood him. And, then,

Everybody remembers how Othello won

Othello described "the cannibals that each

ders," to which Desdemona listened with
q greedy ear, the young Russian told of
his hardships with the Russian army and
how he had to eat hardtack and corped

ccmplshed when the expected happened
From across the ocean, three thousand
miles away, a woman arises, and in a
voice shaking with wrath, declares that
Vonsiatskoy-V y-Vonsiatsky, the ideal true
love of Mrs. Ream, is already married!
She has a marriage certificate. She
has good lawyers and she is fully deter
mined to completely torpedo the rich Mrs.
Ream's dream of happiness with her lover
in overalls.
The documents are on their way to
America. She has cabled the Clergyman
who performed the marriage of Mrs
Ream and Vonsiatsky demanding that it
be Immediately annulled. Furthermore
she intends to come to America herself
and if necessary, to prosecute both Mrs
Ream and her husband on charges of
bigamy!
Naturally, Mrs. Ream's pretty romance
is up in the air. Just what she is saving
to young Mr.. Vonsiatskoy-Vo Vonsiatsky
across the breakfast table these mornings
is uncertain, but in public she is making
strenuous efforts to keep the romance in
tact She has announced that she does
not intend to pay any attention to her
predecessors foolish" claims.
II do not believe that Mr.. Vonsiatsky
married this creature" she said. "And
even if he did, intend to stick by him."
Since possession is nine points of the
law ;and since the former Mrs. Ream has
complete possession of her young and
handsome husband, the other woman who
bears his name may, conceivably, have a
hard time getting him back.
And here arises a curious complication
Mrs. Vonsiatsky of Paris certainly has
marriage certificate. The service was
performed at Yalta, near Constantinople,
by a clergyman of the Russian Church.
1t Is perfectly good and proper and
binding marriage-UNLESS THE BRIDE

because the marriage of Russian and
Jew is unlawful.
He says she is Jewess, and on this
ground he repudiates her and the whole
marriage ceremony.
She insists she is not Jewess. And
on this disputed point hangs the future
and the happiness of the rich wife of the
lover in overalls.
But what sort of high-minded, nobility
Of character does young Vonsiatsky dis
. play in abandoning and repudiating

w msnt w was Ip made some weeks ago
of the engagement of the very
rich Mrs. Marion Buckingham Ream to
q young Russian immigrant laborer
In the Baldwin Locomotive Works in
Philadelphia everybody was surprised and
charmed-but rather doubtful of the sue
cess of such romance.
Mrs. Ream, who is forty-five years DID,
was the daughter of the late multimillion-
aire Norman B. Ream, and the principal
heir to his fortune of about. $40, 600, 900.
Young Anastase Andrevitch Vonsiatskoy-
Vonsiatsky is twenty-three years old, and
was earning $2S week in the locomotive
factory.
Of course, in the novels and in the
movies, the very rich heiresses marry the
poor but worthy young man in the over
alls-and everything turns out to the per-
feet satisfaction of the most sentimental
romantic school girl in the audience.
But, unfortunately, in real life things
of this kind do not seem to turn out quite
the way the poets and the novelists and
the movie heroes tell us. So there were a
good many of Mrs. Ream's rich friends
and social acquaintances who shook their
heads with misgivings.
"The love in a cottage idea is not i'm
possiblew Mrs. Ream insisted. Love is
more than wealth or material things. In
my dear husband I have found a speci-
men of perfect manhood. / love him for
his nobility of character and true worth /;
he loves me for myself, without thought
of my fortune. He insists upon continu-
ing his work at the factory, and l shall
therefore give up my town residence and
move down to a simple little laborer's cot
tage near the mill where I shall do the
horsework and we shall be happy as the
]sborer and the laborer's wife,"
Well, no declaration of love by movie
heroine ever sounded more entrancing.
II was theoretically possible, of course,
that every word the rich Mrs. Ream
uttered-and, no doubt, sincerely believed
might turn out to be true.
But there was one very important fac
tor which must indeed be true to insure
the perfect success of this "love in cot
tage" romance-the young laborer must
really be a man of nobility, of character
and wholesome ideals.
That was the uncertain factor that
troubled the friends and relatives, includ-
ing the aged mot ther Of the love-sick
widow. After all, how much did anybody
really know about Vonsiatsi:y? Would
the sweet dream of Mrs. Ream be inter-
rupted by some unforeseen shock which
might shatter the whole structure Of her
romance?

Mr.. Ream was not alive to greet his
prospective son-in-law and make him feel
at home, but Mrs. Ream's mother was.
and the wealthy divorcee consulted her in
every step of the romance.
The new Mrs. Vonsiatskoy- vonsiatskv
has never discussed her mothers counsel
on these occasions, but, presumably. il
favored the aspiring young Russian. Be-

Undoubtedly, Mrs. Ream,
with her unlimited resources Of
time and money and conscious
of the attention that her mar

many discreet inquiries about
her temperamental young
friend. The romance, despite
its iridesence, was on a very
conventional footing through
out.

rived in this country Mrs. Ream
assisted him in finding employ

Both have recently agreed that 1t was love
at first peek. 1t was nothing like the
usual European courtship. There was no
talk of money or anything like that. 1t
was simply a rainbow romance. They
talked of little home for two, with bread
and cheese and kisses. 1t was all very
sweet.
Mrs. Ream returned to America and
presently "v. "" followed after.
"He told me-" says the indignant Rus
sion girl who is making all the trouble,
that he was going to America for my
sake-so that he could make a great deal
of money, and could have some of these

"A little later his letters became less

No Satisfactory Explanation of Shoot

Ardmore, Feb. 21.-While county
officials gathered up details of a
shooting scrape in the county attor-
ney's office here yesterday, in which
several deputy heriffs and others took
part, citizens of Ardmore today were
discussing the effect of letters re-
ceived by the county commissioners
stating that the IIu Klux Khan was
watching conditions in the county and
that the peoples wishes were going
to be respected and obeyed hence
FORTH
The letters urged that Acting Sher
iff Ewing London, local American Le-
gion commander, who was appointed
when Garrett was suspended, be given
the office permanently.
The most accepted explanation of
the shooting was that the trouble be-
gan when E. J. Martin, county tick
eradication expert, called Acting Sher-
iff London into the prosecutors Of
flee and inquired whether he had a
pistol. When London replied in the
negative, it is said the two men
clinched.
The firing had prompt effect in
district court where Chief of Police
Richard Hignight was being tried un-
der custer proceedings based upon al
legged violation of the prohibition law.
The court held that the presence of
the chief of police might be needed on
the streets at any moment and ad-
journed the hearing. Hignight threw

downtown section and the men re-
manned on duty until a late hour.
