The servants Immediately summoned Mr.
He'll, who arrived from q nearby restau-
rant within fivesminutes after the depar'
ture of his wife. In q moment the neigh
borhood was filed with policemen, and the
frantic husband offered one thousand dol
lars reward for the irst to hnd Mrs. Hell
or his children. ~
This impetus started a scurry about the
neighborhood, and In few moments the
mother was found in an areaway Of near
by apartment. holding the babes to her
breast and sobbins as II her heart would
break. E.....a
As he beheld his little ones. Mr.. Heil's
nerves became unstrung, and he ordered
his wife to be taken to the police station
and arrested for kidnapping. Bitter words
between the two were exchanged at the
desk sergeant's window.
Mr.. He'll seemingly had good case.
"You have already ruined my life and
come very near to running my business"
he said. why do you try to 60 farther!
You dishonored me, although I gave you
everything a woman could want and all
the money you could spend. Now you are
trying to complete the ruin with this ter.
rible attempt to- steal my children. You
are out OF the penitentiary through my In
fiuence BY breaking your parole you may
be sent there. why can't you leave me
alone? I've had enough"
To which Mrs. He'll replied:
II love my children, no matter what ]
have done must be near them, no mat
ter what the consequences are"
This was appealing and Mr. He'll was
induced to strike out the charges against
his wife and enter an arrangement where
by she would be permitted to see the chill.
dren once week.
The case was forgotten again. The ali
mony was renewed and everything was
smoothed over. Mr.. Hell began to eradi-
cate the effects OF his domestic tragedy
insofar 40 they had affected his business.
Then, all OF sudden, his wife exploded
everything again by swallowing q dose Of
poison sufficient to have killed ten people
In the most public place she could think
of--the waiting room Of the Chicago a
Northwestern railway station.

butler admitted stiH another Of her victims
"Its so good to see you again. How is
your sisters little babyf"
The wrath of the victim Immediately
succumbed to admiration. Having coma
with a chip on their shoulders, all the vic
tins extended their good wishes to the
charming burglar and their cordial SYM
pathy to her harassed husband. Some OF
them even said they would be willing to
20 through so trivial a misfortune as bur-
glary for the satisfaction Mrs. Hell had
given them in the few days she had been
In their house.
And 30 when the case came up In court
II was an easy matter for Mr.. He'll to con-
vince the Judge that his wife's adventures
In crime had been very unfortunate, but
that they did not Justify the imposition OF
q prison sentence.
He stated as his opinion that she was
suffering from nervous shock and guarau-
teed her future conduct II the court would
parole her TO him. The Judge agreed with
him and Mrs. He'll was set free on proba-
tion. sat
Everybody in Chicago sympathised with
the banker and applauded his generous foi-
giveness OF his wife. The disgrace brought

Fortunately sne told the matron at ths
station a moment after she had taken the
poison. and immediate measures to save
her life were taken by the station doctor.
Throughout she kept weeping that she
no longer wanted to live without her chill
dren. Once a week was not enough. She
wanted them by her side all Of the time.

he heard what had happened. He was

pleasant and repeated notoriety was shat.
tering his nerves, >..
Later, when the untiring work Of special.
lists he had summoned brought her out OF
danger, he sent the children to see her;
and still later when her recovery was as
sured, he commenced suit for divorce.
II was Immediately granted and left the
banker under no obligation ito provide for
his wife, Nevertheless, he continued to
give her the usual allowance and built an
expensive house for her in California on
condition that she would 60 there to live.
She acceded to this, and Banker Hell
began piecing the broken threads OF his
life together and settling down to new
existence with his children, when his d.
vorced wife Unexpectedly bobbed up again
in the news--this time for having rihed
the, home OF a wealthy moving picture
magnate on the coast.
Mr.. Hell has not yet announced what his
course will be or whether he will mako
restitution as he did before. and prepare
tions are being made In Los Angeles for
trial.

sician and nurse. Her allowance OF sloo
a week was to be continued as before. The
only stipulation he placed on this settle
ment was that never again should she see
the children they had adopted.
Mrs. Hell regarded. this last condition AZ
too harsh to endure, and just as the case
had quieted down she reopened 1t suddenly
and brought further confusion to her hus-
band by breaking her parole and returning
to his home.
It was carefully planned and Mrs Hell
know that at the hour Of her return her
husband would be dining out. The SER
wants were perplexed as their former mis-.
tress rang the door bell. She had been
very kind to them all in the past and II
was hard to refuse the desperate woman
the thing she longed Tor more than life
itseif---the pleasure of going to the nursery
and holding her sleepy tots In her arms.
So they admitted her.
The children were In charge OF nurse
who knew Mrs. He'll only from what had
been written In the newspapers. she was
very uneasy on that account and begged
the weeping woman to make the interview
az short as possible. Instead, Mrs. Hell
seized the babies and ran down the stairs
into the street!
The Washington times., 1922-06-18

As they came into the drawing room
Mrs He'll was pointed out to them for
identification BY a policeman as she sat
weeping near the door. From that point
they were led by Mr.. He'll through the
entire house to select whatever valuables
they chose to identity as their own. Some
times the tragedy became comedy as two
women would select the same object as
belonging to thens In one instance Of this
kind Mr.. He'll awarded one woman the
article and the other enough money to buy
new one. He was anxious to wipe the
slate and forget II at any price.
One very interesting feature Of this very
informal reception was Mrs. Heil's attt
tude after she had recovered from her first
hysterical At of tears. She became ex-
cesdingiy gracious and proceeded to dis
play the same poise and tact they had ad-
mired in her when she was their perfect
maid"
And II was certainly situation for poise
and tact II there ever was one. Mrs. Hell

a great deal. II Is not an
asset TO a banker to have It
publicly known that his wife
Is a thief, but what he regret
ted most was the shame 1t had
brought on the little boy and
girl they had adopted few
years before.
The situation was further
complicated by the police.
Not satisfied with the conven'
tional excuse of kleptomania,
they made some inquiries into
Mrs. Heil's past, and found
three marriages and one or
two affairs that might better
have been marriages.
Still, the banker did not
turn against his wife. He
made an arrangement whereby
she was given a costly home
