EVERYONE IN B08TON SUBURB
HA8 KIND WORD FOR WOMAN
IN THE TRAGEDY.
BOSTON. Dee. 22 Mr,. Claudia
ll.in., wlio has been llvln* with h«r
mother ever elnco her .eparallon from
Cept. H»'n«, has returned to the home
of her childhood—and all too short
girlhood—a grlef-atrirken. humiliated
woman—a woman flayed by her own
aex~bereft both of her children and
her husband, yet notwithstanding she
haa maintained a dignity and hopeful-
neaa, remarkable In on® *o young.
Mra. Halna wan aeen frequently dur
ing the peat week, and aeen at her
beat. In her own email cottage at Win-
throw, which la but a few minutes'
ride outnlde of Boaton.
Claudia, or Claude, Winthrop, aa in
Wlnthrop they call her affectionately,
lives In the highlands of the town.
Her mother's home la a modest simple
two.story one, painted white, but a
stone’s throw from the station.
The station master speaks highly of
Mra. Halna, and All the conductors on
the railroad know her and have
friendly smile for tier every day. Here
In this dreamy old town, Mrs. Halna,
seated In a huge armchair, smiled or
scabbed as she repeated the well-known
history that has turned out tragically
for tho flvo or more concerned In it.
Mrs. Hains Like a Child.
Mrs. Hains, for all her twenty-three
years. Is still a child in many ways.
She was dressed In a dark blue, close-
fitting gown which showed off to ad
vantage her graceful figure still girlish.
“They say I waa bad and frivolous
and ‘light,*ahe said. “Show me the
woman who has time to be all of thoso
—with bablos!"
Claudia Hains In a much* sinned
against woman, from her own account,
her lawyers* nnd that of her friends,
both in Wlnthrop and elsewhere.
Friends have upheld her loyally In ull
her troubles. Her mother Is ever at
her side—a gracious woman of about
45 years, who adores her daughter and
has tho name of “Claudia" always on
her Ups.
Pictures nnd sketches of “Claudia"
are In evidence In four out of tho six
rooms In their little dwelling. She It
Is who day by day cuts out the clip
pings from all the newspapers avail-
able—not one escapes her—and puts
them In a book for future reference.
Has Golden Brown Hair,
Mrs. Hains Is a remarkably pretty
woman, of medium height, ^vith a
wealth of golden brown hair, which
she wears In a pompadour all round
nnd sometimes dresses In the Grecian
style, a good nose, somewhat rounded
at tho end, and a very prettily curved,
red mouth, with smiling corners and a
well-rounded chin. It Is a bright face
and has traces of neither dissipation
nor depravity.
There are shadows under her ap
pealing blue eyes, caused by crying or
sleeplesnuess. Thero Is an air of sad
ness about her that Is pathetic. She
smiles, yet ever with a tear near the
surface; there Is a restrained restless
ness and melancholy thut shows that
she has suffered silently—ever appear
ing cheerful—for the sake of her moth-
Hers Is a highly-strung, passion
ate nature, and nono too strong.
If frivolous, vain and light, as she
has been accused, she has undergone!
a complete change. She takes entire
chargo of the house, dusting, sweep
ing nnd making cake very much the
same as all other domestic women.
Claudia Good, Says Mother,
Her mother said In her defense the
other day: “Claudia had always been
n good girl and If in any way she de
viated from the right path. It was not
until the two Hatnaes came Into her
llfo and, oh, how I wish they never
had. Claudia's head was turned by
Peter’s uniform. She was so young
nnd he flattered her vanltv until she
consented to her mad marriage, which
I was always (.g.nlnst.
“She was a flne girl when she mar
ried him. a sweet child, with her
drenmn and romances the same as all
girls, and she was always a great fa
vorite. Every one loved her.
In her confession, let us call It, In
the paper tho other day. she told who
It was gnve her her drat drink. Her
own husband, nnd ho did more than
corrupt her in this wav. but that will
wait till her trial for divorce from
him comes up after the murder trial
Is over—If he is still In existence to
sue.
Mother Scores Hainses.
“I never liked any of the Hainses
much. Thornton made advances to my
daughter, who hated him for It nnd
for himself.
Mrs. Hains wears a heavy silver ban
gle on her left arm.
"I wear It for luck." she said. “My
babies cut their teeth on It." and she
showed the marks of their teeth proud
ly. “1 think If I wear It everything
will turn out all right.
“Sometimes I .lust can't reallxo that
they nro gone and that I have been
through all that. It doesn't seem pos
sible I can be the same girl who used
to run round this very door, skip rope
nnd make mud plea. Oh! How I wish
I was Claude Libby again and wonr-

Aethma Sufferers Should Know This.
Foley’s Honey And Tar has cured

sidered hopeless. Mrs. Adolph Burn
ing 701 West Third street. Davenport,
Iowa, writes: "A severe cold contract
ed twelve year* ago was neglected un
til It finally grew into asthma. The
beat medical skill available could not
give me more than temporary relief.
EWey'e Honey and Tat was recom

“THE RIGHT OF WAY.
One of the finest acted plays ever
presented here will pay a visit to the
Grand tonight. Sir Gilbert Parker’a
stirring drams, “The Right of Way,"
with Guy Standing and Theodore Rob-
erts in their thrilling impersonations
of Charley Steele and Joe Portugal*,
under the management of Klawr & Er-
Ianger will be the attraction.
The dramatization of what has been
pronounced the greatest novel «-f the
decade was made by Eugene W. Pres-
brey, the successful adapter of “Raf
fles." The story is told In flv
rlods or episodes. The first sho'ws
Charley Bteele at the height of his
success as a lawyer and leader of his
social world in the city of Montreal.
He Is a man without a heart, a doubt
er, a wrecker of men for selfish rea
sons. There la quick transition In the
second episode, showing Steele seeking
his recreations In the mire of the riv
er tavern on tho banks of the St,
Lawrence. A blow and his memory is
wiped out. Here playwright and nov
elist part, sjr Gilbert never answered
the question of Steel’s redemption. He
left his readers with the impression
that Steele died a suicide and de-
bauche. Mr. Presbrey shows his sal
vation through faith and love. The
production is on the satne magnifi
cent scale as all of Kluw & Krlanger’s
attractions, and the supporting com
pany la recognized as being one of
the finest ever rtent out of New York
city. The acting organization has been
recognized by the press of the United
States to be one of the greatest tri
umphs ever present©d to the theater
going public.
BLANCHE^ WALSH.
“The Teat,” says the New York Jour
nal, “Is the only play ever seen in
New York, dealing with the sex prob
lem, which does not offend. Miss
Blancho Walsh Is at her best in the
role of Emma Eltynge. The play is
on© which every man, woman and child
should see. It teaches a lesson which
we all should know."
Miss Walsh’s engagement In this
city will be limited to one night, at the
Grand Opera House on Thursday, De
cember 31. Critics have pronounced
the work one of the strongest produced
in America In many years.
One of Miss Blanche Walsh's com
pany remarked casually to a New York
newspaper man. that In the aggrega
tion was a youth who Is a member
of one of the best known families in
the world.
“He |s only an adjunct In 'The
Test/" he added, “but his name la
known tho length and breadth of the
entire world."
That name night the city editor of
tho newspaper called up Miss Walsh
by telephone and asked as to the iden
tity of tho young man.
“I presume." she said, “there must
bo somo mistake. Every member of
•The Test* has proved a big hit and
I am quite sure that If thero was
any one connected with tho production
so well known,I should have heard
of It.”
Tho day following Miss Walsh was
accosted by tho property man who
had a grievance.
When he had finished, she asked*
“Who are you, anyway?"
“Why," ho answered complacently,
“I am a member of one of tin best
AT CRIPPLE CREEK.
“At Cripple Creek," one of the bent
plays Hal Reid ever wrote, and which
has long been a favorite with the lov
er# of melo-drama, will bo *om at
the Grand Opera House on Friday,
January 1st. As gleaned by tho tlt’e,
the piece Is laid In the Ro'.klds at
the time of the gold discoveries In
that section In which then were so
many real happenings that make splcn-
dldmaterlal for the playwright today.
The sceniceffects arc novel and real
istic nnd the company presenting tho
play are equal to tho demands made of
"CHECKERS."
Dave Brnham, Jr„ whose interpre
tation of the pari of “Push" Miller/
tho race track tout In “Checkers," haa
justlytaken rank with the best char
acterizations on the ctag) today, is
the son of the late Diva Braham, who
died recently and who oompiv.tf \ho
famous songs sung years ago by Har-
rlgan and Hart. A» ifce -.Iru.id on

THI8 WEEK • AT~THE LYRIC.
Tho show* at the Lyric this week
is surpassing everything that has been
secured there during the season; each
act Is on© of tho highest merit and
the entertaining qualities of each Irf
of the highest class.
Andy Runkln, the eccentric musical
comedian, has one of tho most novel remember In our moments of depres
nnd different acts that has
this city. His many songs, which, by
the way. are new, are the most laugh
able that haa ever been sprung In that*
little house. H*s musical part of the
act comprises many new and novel In
struments, of his own. His prohibition
piano receives good applause at each
performance. The dosing of his act,
singing and playing a banjo in real
old darky style |s fine.
(Bailey And Taylor, the two best black
face comedians that have ever been
over the southern time, are with ,ua
again. This team has been seen here
before and they are making even a
bigger hit‘than they did before. Miss
Taylor as the mulatto, does her part
far above anything seen here and her
song. “Hallajah 8ister." Is receiving
many encores and before tbe week la
out the Lyric will bo one of the popu
lar places of Macon.

IF TRUST IN WORLD OF COM-
MERCE IS GOOD, IT IS AL80
PROPER IN PHILAN
THROPIC WORK.
NEW YORK, Dec. 21—“If a com*
btnp.tlon to do business ip effective in
saving waste and m getting better
results, why Is not combination far
more Important In philanthropic
work?" In this question is set forth
the text of an article by John
Rockefeller, head of the Standard Oil
Interests published In the current Issue
of the Worlds Work. The general
subject of Mr. Rockefeller’s article Is
"The value of the co-operative prin
ciple In living."
Mr. Rockefeller expresses tho be
lief that tho general Idea of co-opera-
tlon In giving for education scored "a
real step In advance" when Mr. An
drew Carnegie consented to become a
member of the general education
board, “for in accepting a position in
this directory he has, It seems to mo,
stamped with hls approval this vital
principle of co-operatton In aiding the
educational Institutions of our coun
try."
Work of Education Board.
He goes on TO describe In some de
tail of the general education board
which he said has made or is making
a careful study of tho location, aims,
work, resources, administration and
educational value present and pros
pective, of the Institutions of higher
learning in the United States. The
board, he says, makes Its contribution
averaging something like $2.000,000 a
year, on the most careful comparative
study of needs • and opportunities
throughout the country* “Its records
are open to all. Many benefactors of
education are availing themselves of
these disinterested inquiries, and It Is
hoped that more will do so."
Some interesting general remarks on
the subject of benevolence illuminate
Mr. Rockefeller’s point of view. For
instance he says:
To help an Inefficient, 111-fatcd, un
necessary school Is waste. I am told
by thoso who have given most care
ful study to this problem that It Is
highly probable that enough money
has been squandered on unwise edu
cational projects to have built up a
national system, of higher education,
adequate to our need, If . the money
had been properly directed to that
end.”
Many Appeals Reach Rockefeller.
Of Roman Catholic methods Mr.
Rockefeller said that he has “seen tho
organization of the Roman church
secure better results with a given sum
<of money than other church organiza
tions are accustomed to secure from
tho same expenditure. It Is unneces
sary to dwell upon the centuries of
experience"which the Church of Rome
has gone through to perfect a great
power of organization. •
Commenting upon the great mass of
appealing letters received Mr. Rocke
feller says that four-fifths of them
are requests for money for personal
use, “with no other title to consider
ation than that the writer would be
gratified to have it.”
Mr. Rockefeller pays a warm tribute
to the memory of tho late Dr. William
R. Harper, president of the Universi
ty of Chicago nnd makes without
qualification the statement which will
I H
.... I presi
dency of tho University of Chicago, ho
never onco either wrote me a letter or
asked me personally for a dollar of
money for the university."
He goes on- to explain that in this
as In all other cases the gifts to the
university were tho result of the pre
sentation of its needs, “made in writ
ing by the officers of the university,
whose special duty It 1* to prepare
p budget and superintend its
finances. It Is not personal interviews
and impassioned appeals, but sound
and Justifying worth that should at
tract and secure the funds of philan-
tropy. The peoplo in great numbers
who are constantly importuning me
for personal iptervlews in behalf of
favorite causes err In supposing that
tho Interview, were It possible. Is the
best way, or even a good way, of
securing what they want.*’ ,
Doesn't Mind Criticism.
In the course t»f his article Mr.
Rockefeller says of himself: “Criti
cism that is deliberate, sober-and fair
Is always valuable and It should be
welcomed by all who desire progress.
I have had at least my full share of
adverse criticism, but I can truly say
that It has not embittered me, nor left
me with any harsh feeling against a
living soul. Nor do I wish to be crit
ical. of those whose conscientious
judgment, frankly expressed, differs
from my own. No matter how noisy
the pessimists may be, wo know that
the world I* getting better steadily and
rapidlv. and that It Is a good thing to
slon or humiliations/"
