WHITE PAYS WAGES OF SIN WITH HIS O WN LIFE’S BLOOD AFTER CAREER OF REVELS\ Studio in Tower of Madison Square Garden,| Overlooking Spot Where He Was Slain, Often the Scene of Midnight Orgies. By CHARLE8 SOMERVILLE. By Private Leased Wire. New York, Juno 28.—Death ending any man's life can never be a more terrible figure than ah It standa now at the coffin of Stanford White. It Is not only the manner In which It came upon him, although that was very terrible; a man of largo renown shot -down as *n unclean crea ture, kicking his legs grotesquely under a wine-stained table, blood spots on his white shirt front, clutching with wild hands at his throat with a heavy, whitening face upturned In the glare of a thousand lights, to show hundreds of strangers' eyes his death agony, while for hla dirge there waa the bitter tinkle of silly music. • LIGHT ON THE 8ECRET WAYS O' LIFE. It waa not only the manner that death' came tp him, but even more terrible la the aspect It has since assumed. It has taken a torch with a relentless light Into the secret ways of the life of this man of fame. It has turned him Infamous. Its gaunt fingers have stripped hla bier of the laurels that his genius won and draws over his white, dead face a cloafc of obllquy. , Madison Square Garden—the greatest monument of his high talents— has been disclosed as his den of sin and shame, even as It was here In the great building that hla genius had wrought death struck him down as he sat with his bleared eyes conning the supple, lithe young dancera of the chorus—ao like so many other choruses out of which he had, with wealth, hla distinction, hla subtleties bom of keen knowledge of the world, lured to hla side with villainous Intent so many foolish young creatures, NONE EXEMPT FROM SCANDAL-TIPPED TONGUE. And even among men of easy mode of life, In which a code of morals has no real place—even among thla sort, "death puts Stanford White In contempt. If among them he waa not in contempt before. For year In and year out he had wielded a scandal-tipped tongue against hla very' victims. He had no remorse, and he had no pity. They might go afcay from him, very young and very shame-stricken, trying to start life anew. They might advance to first places In the theatrical world. They might strive hard with honest ambitions and win. Or some decent fel low might lead one of them to the altar. He did not watch auch careers silently. Over the cafe or club tablea It was hla sport to move his sneer ing, heavy lips In recounting the past, and his tongue never faltered when It reached the mention of a woman's name. And If he ever kept silence, he used such silence as a whip to lash at will some wretched young creature back Into his vicious slavery, HE HAD WON GREAT FAME AND SUCCE88. To those only who knew his greatness, he was a fine, splendid figure—■ a man of fame and success In the ripeness of years—Stanford White, son of a celebrated Journalist, brilliant In hla architectural studies at the Uni versity of New York, and In hla travels through France and Italy, the tal ented pupil of Richardson, whom be surpassed; the moat artistic member of the great firm of McKIm, Mead & White, the deslgnor of the Imposing Madison Square Garden, the lofty, sample Washington arch, and many other noted buildings. And again, fortunate Stanford White, his wife,'a atately handsome worn an, formerly a Miss Elisabeth Smith, of 8mlthtown, Long Island, and an heiress; his son, a sturdy young fellow nt college; and again, prominent Stanford White, with his name on the roster of the best clubs of the city, nnd his name always on the Invitation llsta of great banquet* and other functions. In an amastng manner, he auccessfully lived hla life of fine labor and his life of Iniquity, Promptly at 9 o'clock every morning he waa at his of flee: He worked easily, yet vigorously and thoroughly. Then he rolled In his carriage or his automobile—seldom to his home—almost Invariably to tho haunts whither Ills vlclousncss dragged him. His strong ( body nnd brain paid the enormous tax; without weakening. HAD A STUDIO IN HIGH TOWER. The first night found him present In a theater In correct attire, the leader of a group of wealthy men who are pleased to be termed bon vl vants. From the front of the house he . went back to the wings. No manager blocked his way to securing Introductions to such prstty women as his eye fell keenly upon. The more youthful one might be, the keener was his glance. ' With hla wealth, hi* Influence In theatrical circles, his lavish gifts, his masterful Intellect and magnetic manner, the luxurious allurements of his magnificent atudlo In Madison Square Garden, the man was temptation In carnate. High In the tower was his studio. It waa safely to be used for any evil purpose. He was a director of the building. HI* word to sny subordi nate was law. He brought poor young creature* there—girls recruited from the humble homes of the city, and saw them* bewildered In the big square room with Its soft red lights. Its beautiful pictures In glinting, heavy golden frames; Its marvels of tapestries and rugs, Its silk-draped lounging spots, Its wlne-stocksd ibuffet. In a part of It he had a cunningly contrived set of mirrors that showed his visitors from every point of view. Far above the city, far from the reach of Its noise, beyond sight and hear ing, White had his den. WOMAN BELABORED HIM WITH AN UMBRELLA. Sometimes he took crowds there. There they held orgies. White and auch men as he drew around him In the diversions he Invented, had a club In Twenty-eighth atreet. It was called the -'Chorui Girls' Club.” Yet all the time White had gone unscathed up to a week ago. It waa at bight, In front of the New York theater. While, with his high hat, crushed down, his claw-hammsr tails flying, sped away to escape a woman who belabored him with an umbrella—a woman,scalded by his freely ut tered scandal. Beautiful Evelyn Nesblt Thaw came to New York a few days ago with her young husband. White laughed knowingly to his cronlss. They re membered the affair when Evelyn Nesblt was a little girl among the studios of New York; of when she appeared In th« choruses; of White's Interest In her.. ' And White sneered at the maddened young husband who came to him. And he sneered at the threats that the erased and desperate young fellow ottered. He plied the youAg woman with letters that made her shudder. Then' the tragedy. A Good Thing Push It Along. ATLANTA TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION, P. 0. Box 266. ROUND TRIP Summer and Convention Rates.
