Whip For Millionaire’;
Horses Returns From
London.
Netv \° r k, July 9.-Mlsa Florence Schenck,
■ged 19, of Norfolk, Vi., and H. C. Wilson,
manager of Alfred G. Vanderbilt's show
racing horses, arrived here ou the steamship
Minnehaha from London. Twenty-one horses
belonging to Mr. Vanderbilt, which took
pnrt In the International horse show, were
also on the steamer. Miss Schenck Is the
daughter of I)r. and Mrs. Powhatan*
Scheiu k. She Is renowned as a whip of con
slderable skill.
At the Norfolk horse show last fall she
drove some of Mr. Vanderbilt's horses in
the show ring, and when the string was to
be sent to the other side of the Atlpntlc to
compete she accepted an engaement to go
with them. Miss Schenck, who was !u a
highly nervous state, talked about* *er trow-
ble to the reporters as the steamship came
Op the bay.| She said:
Married in Richmond.
"Wilson and I were married In Richmond,
o.. ou October 19 last. We went abroad
ss man and wife, but I have learned that
he has a wife and children at Orange. Now
I hate him. He has blighted my life,” she
declared, hysterically. •*! ara now an out
cast, without a frlcud In the world. Kven
my father and mother disowned me.” *
Wilson, who had heard all that she said,
sullenly declured that he had * not gom*
through any marriage ceremony with Miss
Schenck.
“Wo were married! We were,” vehe
mently persisted Miss Schenck. “and I have
my marriage certificate to prove It."
"Don't put any of this stuff in the pa
pers," pleaded Wilson to the reporters. "It
Is not true. I have a wife living In Orange,
to whom I was married seven years ago.
I’ve had trouble about It already, ami rui
afraid If Mr. Vanderbilt sees this I’ll be
asked to leave his service."
Tcnra Course Down Cheeks.
Tears were runntng down Miss Schenck's
cheeks as she talked, and after wnltlng a
minute to dry her eyes she continued:
"Some time after the marriage he'took me
to Orange and presented me to his wife ns
a friend of Ills. We lmd n terrible time.
When It came time for us to sail home he
tried to Induce mo to stay In I*ondou, but 1
Insisted on coming back.
He treated me brutally all the way
across the ocean. On Sunday night In-
knocked me senseless. Look here where bo
struck me."
Miss Schenck bared her arm and showed
large bruises.
Threatened to Kill Her.
He bent me." she said, "because 1 was
talking to another innu. *Thc surgeon had
to attend me. He threatened a dozen times
to kill inc If I sgld anything about what
he had done to me.

Vaudeville Bill Pleases.
Vaudeville of tjie clever, varied kind
greeted first-night patron* of the Ca
sino Mondny evening. The bill Is ex
ceptionally good with enough of the
hair-raising. epectacular to make lovers
of excitement alt up and enough of the
really laughable to bring relaxation to
the tired.
Billy Benrd, "the party from tho
South," might be said to be the star.
Although he has a moat peculiar build,
hla face, at leant hi* mouth, In hln for
tune. With dinarming simplicity lie
conductn a one-nided humorous conver
sation filled with sharp thrusts, but
never pausing for the laugh that gen
erally arrives a few seconds over-due.
The Sisters McConnell, Mtaxes Cath
erine and Celeste, gave a turn In musi
cal comedy that drew many encores.
Their dancing was* novel In that It
seemed absolutely natural, although
both were highly animated. Their songs
ere clover, provoking much laughter.
Arthur Houston, as the queer juggler,
developed some new and laughable
tricks. It was the kind of performance
that takes every one by surprise. Some
of his stunts were exceedingly difficult
while others were merely but very hu
morous.
Mitchell nnd Cain, the dialogue art
Ists, the bicycle riders and jugglers, the
burrel Jumpers and other numbers went
to make up as entertaining a selection
of vaudeville as tho Casino has pro-
duced In many days.
"Miss Hobbs*’ a Success.
The Fawcett Stock Company came
back Into Its own Monday night.
Jerome K. Jerome's comedy. "Miss
Hobbs." was produced In splendid style
nnd a large* audience received the pro
duction with great enthusiasm.
"Miss Hobbs" Is one of these quiet
comedies with Just enough heart Inter
est to hold the uttontlon nnd with Just
enough humor—and of the right kind,
too—to keep the risibilities working
without causing one. to lose the thread
>f the pretty story.
In Just such a play. It seems, the
company Is at leg" best. Miss Jane
Wheatley, In the title role, was the
center of attraction most of the time,
and she won new friends and admir
ers. Regan Hughston, as "Klngsearl
Major." did the hero stunts to the en
tire satisfaction of the audience.* and
Miss Phyllis Sherwood, ns Mltllcent
Farey, was. of course, a favorite.
Brandon Hurst, Frink Craven and
Miss Ethel Conroy deserve especial
mention for making the most of more
less unimportant parts. "Miss
Hobbs" will be at the Grand all the
eek.
Pastime Theater.
No more delightful vaudeville bill
as ever offered nt the Pastime Thea
ter, on Peachtree street, than which.at
tracted hundreds to the Monday mati
nee and evening performances.
Cooled by electric tuna, with a per
fect system of ventilators Installed, it
Is a delightful spot to visit evep on the
warmest days. Tho program for this
week contains some acts that have
been featured wherever seen.
The Claassen Sisters, the dashing
dancing soubrettes, are a decided novel-
ty and a great hit. Al McDonald, the
prince of minstrel men, has n mono
logue that would make an Indian laugh.
Miss Day, the acknowledged queen
of the skipping rope, does a turn that
Is both novel and graceful. Earl Whit
comb. the youngest monologulst on the
stage, makes a hit and his little sister,
Masle. dances her way Info populari
ty. Miss Ann Stclnbern in songs with
Illustrations closes a delightful pro
gram.
St. Nicholas Auditorium.
No matter how 'muddy the water Is
there Is always the pure Ponce DeLeon*
spring water to be had at the skating
rink or the 8t. Nicholas Auditorium at
ponce DeLeon Park. TMs fountain "of
perpetual youth" nestles just under the
hill which Is crowned by this vast au
ditorium, the home of the largest skat.
OPERATORS READY
TO RETURN TO KEY
But Railroads Must Raise
Salaries to Get 6,000
Men. .
According to those who know, the
railroads of the country will have no
difficulty whatever securing the 6,000
telegraph operators additional they will
need when the new law goes Into effect
March 1, 1908, prohibiting the working
of operators more than 9 hours In the
twenty-four.
But to get them they will have t6
pay more than $52.50 a month, which
Is declared to be the average wage
now paid railroad telegraph operators.
"There flre | 1U ndre<ln of former rail
road telegraph operators in Atlanta,"
said one who formerly w’orked at this
business, "and they were compelled to
take up other work In order to live. I
saw by press dispatches from Chicago
that 6,000 additional operators would
be needed by the railroads. Well, It
has been estimated that there are 15,000
former telegraph operators In the
United States who quit the railroads in
order to get enough money to live.
There are many former railroad tele
graph operators right here In Atlanta
who are now engaged in the insurance
and mercantile business; In the cleri
cal departments of the various rail
roads; with telephone companies and In
various other trades, who would return
to the key If the salaries would ogly
be mode 'an Inducement. It la a noto
rious fact that unskilled and Imported
day laborers are now being paid more
than a great many skilled operators,
both working for the same road."
But It Is doubtful If the railroads can
secure competent men for an average
wage of $52.50 a month.
