Dowager Carries Wholean
Feud Into Craze

From the tomb of Mrs. John
B. Henderson there issued today
a harsh Sentence-the last word
of an embittered old woman. in
a feud which has shocked the
country. That sentence reads:
ut IS my expressed wish and
SO direct, that Beatrice Hen
dersOn WhOIean shall have
nothing from my estate"
Those were the parting words
of the grand dame of Washing
ton to the adopted daughter to
whom years ago she penned the
following lines under the title
of Laughing TriXie':
"The color of Der bair is the
suns bright hue,
"And the color Of her eyes is
heavens own blue,
what wonder then that her
way so frank and free,
"ShOuld temper the sunshine
and merry, merry be-"
A Strange Contrast
The benediction of bitterness
which today is the heritage of
"Trixie" Wholean is strange
contrast to the lavishness of the
love in which Mrs. Henderson
enwrapped her during the years
the two lived in old Boundary
Castle and dominated the social
horizon.
Not a penny. not kind word
even, did the grim old lady leave
to Trixie.
This Trixie whom Mrs. Hender-
son regarded as being too fine
to have a debut for presentation
to washington society.
When Beatrice was 19 and be-
lieved to be the natural grand
daughter and the adopted daugh-
ter of Mrs. Henderson, the old
lady spoke her mind about debu-
tante parties. She said:
Debut parties? 1 don't be-
lieve in them. They are nothing
but auction blocks, where young
girls, carefully reared, are
placed on the marriage market.
No, there shall be no debut par.
ties in my family.
Beatrice will never stand in
a sea of chiffon and tell young
men, Now I'm ready to be mar
ried. How much do you bid?
Indeed, no! She's destined for
something finer than that"
Ire Was Aroused
The will of Mrs. Henderson re-
flected the ire and animosity
which was kindled only a few
months ago when Mrs. Wholean
attempted to prevent Mrs. Hen
derson from disposing of prop
erty.
The happy old days at Hender-
son Castle ended abruptly when
Mrs. Wholean filed that suit.
Mrs. Henderson barricaded her
self in the castle and proceeded
to cast the younger woman out of
her life.
The old lady dug deep in the
well of bitterness and brought
up family skeleton which
shocked the city. She branded
Mrs. Wholean as a founding in
her court answer.
Had Been HOaxed
Mrs. Wholean was not the
daughter of her son, John B.
Henderson, jr. There had been
no child born to the young Hen
dersons, she asserted, but they
had perpetrated a hoax and had
gone to Charles Town, w. Va,
where they adopted a founding
and brought it back to the castle
as their own.
Not only that but the embit-

CLANG SHUT
On FALL
$50 Denied a Glimpse of Ex-
Official As He Arrives at
Sante Fe to Begin Term

SANTA FE, N. NJ, July 81
G.N.S0.-Albert B. Fall, former
Secretary of Interior, was in the
State penitentiary here today,
starting his sentence of a year
and a day for accepting a $780,
600 bribe from E. F. Doheny, Of
Los Angeles, while a member Of
President Harding's Cabinet.
Immediately after his arrival at
1918 p. m. last night, Fall was
taken to a room in the prison
hospital, where he is expected to
serve much, if not all, of his
sentence. He will be finger
printed, photographed and given
q prison haircut later.
Crowd Denied View
A crowd of $50 persons gath
cred to see him enter was driven
back by guards and not even
newspaper men or photographers
gained admittance.
Warden Swope, refusing to al
low newspaper men to talk to
Fall upon his arrival here, ex-
planned that he was enforcing
regular prison rules regarding Wis
iting prisoners. He stated:

from Washington to treat Fall

and physical condition. had

not do that now"
Bates Instructions
The instructions received by
Swope came from Sanford Bates,
Federal director of prisons at
Washington. and stated:
"It is needless for me to say
that the bureau desires that he
(FalD be treated on the same
basis as every other prisoner
of his age and condition of
health; that no special favOrS
or privileges be accorded to
him; that personal interviews
with him by members of the
press be forbidden; that extra
visitors or letters be given only
where, in your judgment, Spe-
ciaI necessity exists therefor,
and that absences ON his part
from the Jail be strictly pro
hibited."
Twenty miles from the end Of
his journey from his home in Ell
Paso, Fall was placed under
arrest at Lamy, N: M, by Mar
shall Joseph F. Tondre. Tondre
gave Fall into the custody OF
Warden Edwin Swope, who in
turn put him in care Of David
Johnson, prison guard.
Falls journey in the black am"
bulance was a leisurely one, by
order of his physician. He
stopped frequently along the road
side yesterday after leaving Three
River ranch, where he had rested
for a day. He left Ell Paso Sat
urday with his doctor and grand
daughter.

COMMUNICATIONS
THOUGHTS ON This
LIVE We ARE LIVING
(By Charles Gordon)

If business is quiet, there are
no dull days, dull lives or dull
times. There are only dull peo-
pie. There is not a single job in
the world, however humble. but
that has a color and inspiration
entirely its own.
Every now and then in glancing
over the weekly newspaper of
Roosevelt county, one runs across
a bit of editorial writing which
proves that the editors do occa-
sionally find time-perhaps late
on some night when the last office
pest has departed-to write some
thing from the heart.
Happy Days Have Come
Again" They will be or should
be happy. at least. for the man
who has the opportunity, or can
make one. for leaving his work
and getting out in the open for a
week or two. or even a few week
ends. One of our favorite slogans
is "See America First" But how
about See the Country Round
Wolf Point First of Allg"
Grounds For Suspicion
During these sultry evenings
the writer tried his hand at a
mystery murder story, n of the
sort so popular at present. Here
it is and any suggestions or clues
will be gratefully received.
when Bill, the roomer, returned
home from the Liberty, he was
somewhat disturbed to find the
owner of the house dangling from
the lamp-post in front of the
house. Thinking the least said
the better, Bill wagged his head
and entered the house where he
found two strange men lying dead
on the living room table. This
aroused his suspicious so he de-
cided lot to annoy Sheriff Lowe
or Todd Stanley.
He found the murder a LETT
no clues except his card and a
brief note saying he would be
back after supper. Hilda, the
maid of lal work, whom he en-
countered dressed in her mis-
tress's latest frock, said that
when she served tea she noticed
a strange man hitting the owner
of the house over the head with a
club but had not reported 1t be-
she had some sewing TO do.
After a thorough search, Bill dis
covered the mistress Of the house
strangled in the attic.
After q close examination OF a
dagger and two sawed-on shot
guns Bill concluded tina! there had

fully received.
Next week it is to be hoped that
some one will contribute another
mystery story to the Peoples
Forum.
Stampede
The biggest wild west sports in
Montana and the most outstand-
ing in the American continent is
the Stampede in Wolf Point. The
dates are so chosen that they do
not conflict with the many cele-
brations held annually around the
4th Of July, it's dates being July
9-10-11. A record attendance is
looked for.
This year the management is
extending its efforts towards pro-
viding an additionally spectacular
and interesting Stampede-previ-
ously all that could be hoped for
or wished for by the attendance;

VIDA TRIMS POPLAR
BY A SCORE OF 1874

Vida beat Poplar Sunday by bat
ting the ball all over the park
from the delivery of three differ
ent pitchers and the Poplar team
were trying to see who could
make the most errors and not get
in too bad and they had seven
chalked against them. This was
partly the cause of Vida's thirteen
scores. The game was called on
account of rain in the last half of
the seventh, when Vida had two
men across the plate, one on by
knocking out a three Dagger and
nobody down. Vida's only scare
came in the fourth when a base
on balls was given, an error by
second baseman and Poplar
punched three hits in a row. 1t
was about the easiest game Vida
has had this season.
In the third inning George Loen-
dorf pitched only four balls, ia
cobb singled, Owl knocked a fly
to centerfeld, Marcus fouled to
the catcher and Engles pop-fiied
to the pitcher, this incident does
not happen very often. There was
quite a large crowd attended the
game and there was also quite a
few people out from Wolf Point.
Next Sunday Vida plays Poplar at
Poplar. Following is the game in
detail which will explain every
hing.
