From Rich Admirer

NEW YORK, May 2s.-While
Harry K. Thaw was being assisted
yesterday into q taxicab at Broad
way and Forty-second street-be-
cause Of his wabbly knees-two
women sat in the ladies' parior OF
the Castilian Garden roadhouse at
Lynbrook, L. L, and romanced
about the gray-haired Lochinvar,
who has come out Of western Vir-
ginia to mesh both of them into
his life.
one-and she was all smiles
was Fawn Gray, the dancer, who
has opened the long-disused OPEN
ings to his. heart and purse; the
other was an old friend Of Thaw,
divorced wife of q popular stage
comedian and confidant of his new
friendship with young Fawn. She
was In tears.
Reason for Smiles.
Fawn's smiles, she candidly
stated, were caused by the shower
Of gifts which the thawing of Did
man Thaw has released upon her
slim youthful shoulders. Whereas
they were yesterday reported to be
only a bracelet Of diamonds set in
gold, there are, she affirmed, many
more of them than that and they
total in value about Sc, 1000.
The diamonds, she purred, ARE
not set IN gold. There are over q
hundred Of them set in platinum
first class solid platinum-and g.

jewel. %
She caressed the object on her
slender wrist and her smile became
deeper and more mysterious as she
noted that the other woman, for.
some reason. had burst into big

The two women are ever so fond
OF each other, but there are some

Fawn was asked.
By innuendo, implication and in.

her friend, Fawn, until that fond
ness seemed to pass q certain flne
line dividing friendship from some
thing better-or worse. When she
saw Harry opening up both heart
and purse and, under FaWn'e
kindling smile, expanding like
winter rose, she suddenly realized
that she herself might perhaps have
enjoyed the same thrills which are
now to be Fawn's.
And what are those thrills?
What have they been? What VIII
they be?
Fawn, opening wide her inno-
cent eyes-as innocent now as
they were two years ago, when she
was champion swimmer in Eras-
mus High School - candidly de-
clares that she cannot imagine
what they may turn out 70 be.
s"Oh. yes,' she declares, II know
ali the stories about Harry-about
how he treated Evelyn Nesbit and
killed Stanford White and horse
whipped girls and boys and all
that. But simply must believe
that Evelyn never understood the
dear boy. Harry is q perfect gen
tleman."

Not Fortunate In Love.
Neither woman win consent long
TO discuss the known facts about
Thaw, full as they are OF sispifi-
cant things which might serve as
warnings TO both OF them.
In mo case on record has any
one o6 Thaw's love affairs turned

cOlFFEUsE TO FILM STARS
 NEVER COULD ABIDE THE BOB

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, June 6.-(P) Hattie Wilson Tabourne, negro hair dresser for film stars, died here recently, bearing to the last a hat red for bobbed hair that was over shadowed only by the love of her work.
 This woman, creator of gorgeous head dresses that were admired turnout the feminine world, was vir- tually unknown until her death. It was her fate to see the bobbed hair she detested become a fixture during the nine years of her association with the film industry. She used to stay up nights figuring out ways to combat the encroachments of the bob among film women. Failing in this, she evolved the most elaborate ma- thods of disuising it. This motive was responsible for some of the coif- f'1re effects that adorned the heads of movie stars, and caused many women to wonder who the designer was.

Peterson also proposes to attend the American Legion Con- vention, and has promised the Gate way to send daily letter of the progress of the Convention Sioux City and Chicago will also be visit ed by the Alaska travellers.
