et and declared that he would yet kill
White.
She will be able to awenr under oath
that when she told White of Evelyn
Netbit’s marriage to Thaw White said:
"Poor Kid,” Said White.
"Poor, wayward 'kid.' That la the
best thing that could possibly have
happened to her.”
Mrs. Schwarts's first husband was a

found they could not handle the crowd
that was every minute growing angrier
they threatened.to arrest the cleaners.
The hotel Is owned by Henry Laue,
who was away during the riot. What

body knew until two men appeared
outside the place with a bundle of
American flags. They were part of the
Fourth of July decorations. With the
stars and stripes the workmen began
to mb’' the windows And polish the
brass trimmings.
A crowd of cltlsens were the first to
notice and they began to throw rocks
at the cleaners. Then men who were
passing took a hand.
The two workers were husky chaps
of the "bouncer” type and In two min

others threw rockt at the place, break

but for a time on the run Archie held
the throttle.
The boys rode to the depot ahortly
before train time and Archie conceived
the Idea of a ride In a locomotive. He
broached the matter to Station Master
Jack Marsh, who sought to dodge the
question by saying Its could not let

"Oh. we'll fix that,” cried Archie.

Marsh took the 'phone.
“Is It all right. Mr. President?" asked

conveying the Dewey were rigged with
powerful electric apparatus and they
presented a unique spectacle at night,
constantly on the lookout for anything
In the path of the wide sweeping flo

flve fathoms of two and one-half Inch
chain for a bridle. To this was fasten
ed 1*0 fathoms of two 15-Inch hawser

tached 200 fathoms of t-lnch wire haw
sers. Each of the towing vessels was
equipped with steam towing machin
ery to lessen the strain at sea.
The course was across tho Atlantic,
through the Mediterranean, the Sues
canal and to Singapore, from thence to
Manila. The flotilla had been gone
scarcely a waek when the navy de

After several days with no word from

One night the great drydock broke from

The Dewey broke adrift again twice
before reaching Gibraltar. On arriving
