Gained down a bit.
IF it were possible for me TO get
away from my business" said Mr..
Prescott To the reporter, II would
leave for Europe next week and re-
main an indefinite time. Mrs. Pres
colts mother is over there, and she
is very anX Gus to have her daugh-
ter with her; but Of course my wife
would not leave me for a long visit.
Anyway" he continued, you
may broadcast the fact that Mrs.
Prescott's pearls. if they are stolen
in the future, will have to be taken
from a safety deposit vault, as not
with my consent will my wife wear
them again. Ever since she has had
them, and especially since her jewels
have been augmented by her sis
ters pearls, they have been a source
of great trouble and anxiety to her.
They are not worth the grief they
nave caused. Poor little Miss Filing

The Tangle
CLIPPING FROM THE PITTS

CLIPPING FROM THE PITTS
BURG SUN-CONTINUED.
Mr.. Prescott told the reporter that
he had a different theory from that
of Commissioner Laidlaw, which was
that the thieves obtained the neck
lace from the safe before Miss Ell
lington arrived in he room, and
hearing others coming on the scene
they decided to kidnap Miss Filing
ton. One of the men was entrusted
with the pearls. The ringleader of
the gang, thinking the jewels were
perfectly safe, carried the girl out,
and the man dropped the jewel case
in the vase, thinking that if they
were caught, nothing would be found
upon them.
That the one man who was not
captured came back to find the jew
els and failed to find them shows
that he had no knowledge of where
they had been secreted. Conse-
quently the police think the man
who dropped the jewels is one Of the
men who are now in prison. They
think that the man decided to dou
blecross his companions, hoping that
the jewels would not be found until
he should regain his liberty. All the
convicted men will be questioned
again today to find out if any one
of them knows anything about the
pearls.
Mrs. Prescott Immediately sent
the necklace to the safety deposit
vault, and she intimates that it will
be a long time before she will wear
it again, if she ever does.
The Prescott pearls have come to
be almost as fateful as the Hope dia-
mond, and it would not be surpris-
ing If Mrs. Prescott disposed of them
in some way, giving the proceeds to
charity.
The jewels now consist Of two
necklaces, as Mrs. PresC it's sister
left to her her wonderful necklace,
among her other jewels, at the time
of her deplorable death.
The man who made the second at
tempt to obtain the pearls is still at
large. Mr.. Prescott is extremely
nervous about his wife and children
as long as this man is free, and he
has offered a reward of $4,000 to
any one who will apprehend him.
It is very probable that Mrs. Pres
colt and her two boys will leave the

You might possibly succeed in
making him get divorce, but you
would also succeed in making a col
lossal fool of yourself. And let me
tell you this: No man is going to
offer his perfectly good name to a
little fool, acting like a spoiled
child. You married this boy, and
apparently you have done nothing to
try to make your marriage a sue
cess. The other man has right to
believe you would not try to make
his marriage a success either. It's
all right to alibi about your husband
having a dreadful temper, but |
know it takes two to make
quarrel. and man in love doesn't
fight unless he has cause to. My
opinion is that you should still be in
school getting some sense. Since
you are not why don't you go TO
work and keep your days busy and
your mind on an occupation that
will take it away from more dan
gerous channels. You are just light
