Rj'en In the Dallas (Texas) Morning

tttost artistic residences'of that city.
■n an Illustrated article on “Lavish
Displays In Art and Music Rooms," the

home:
"The ball room at the residence of
Colonel W. L. Crawford, on Ross ave-
Bu “ Is primarily an art room, and Is
A spacious apartment 35 by. 55 feet, In
the Colonial style, with heavy beamed
celling, polished door and immense
open fireplace of gray brick with high
Colonial mantel. On either side of the
fireplace are high-backed, Ivory-enam
eled chairs, richly upholstered In green
plush, above which are panels of Gobe
lin tapestry, serving as bases for Ivory-
tinted alcoves filled with mju-bles,
bronzes and Oriental china.
"The room Is lighted from above by
three large windows, draped with rose-
colored silk, which diffuses a rose glow
over the entire Interior and brightens
the old IVory. rose afid gold of the
celling panels between the beams of
Ivory lined with gold and beaded with
gold cones containing Incandescent
lights.
"Clusters of sold cone lights are also

e room and In the full
blase of electricity the effect Is ex
ceedingly brilliant.
"Corresponding with the panel deco
ration of the celling Is the rococo frieze
In the styles of Louis Quatorze and
Louis Qulnze.
"The collection of pictures Includes
more than too paintings from the brush
of Mrs. Crawford, among them many
originals, copies made from famous
originals In European art galleries and
family portraits. .
"The collection of carved furniture
and statuary In the room Is very Inter
esting. The furniture Includes several
carved and Inlaid Roman and Floren

century.
"Mrs. Crawford a reception rbom or

evolved the plan of rebating to get and

BURNING LOVE
FROM SENATOR
Continued from Page One,
packed nnd jammed the court room
who did not realize that during this
hour Mr*. Bradley waa emptying the
cup of bitterness to Its very dregs, but
there was none who could apprcclnte
Just what each letter and Ite memo
ries meant to the rid little figure In
this sad, sordid drama from real. life.
8enetor Reed Bible,
After eliciting from Mrs. Bradley
that the letters and telegrams Intro
duced by no means represented all
exchanged between herself and Brown.
Judge Powers took up the thread of
testimony where It had been dropped
yesterday afternoon, concerning the In
cident* of the last few days before
Brown started on his last journey ,
Jbcn Mr*. Bradley told In a discour
aged little voice of a visit to the sen
ator's office when he agreed to see
her and talk things over. This was a
few days later.
•’lie talked to me," ehe said. "He
talked of everything except the thing I
wanted him to talk of. He read poetry
to me, read the Bible, talked or every
subject except this. Then, after a
while, he became angry and said that
quarreled. I told him that he had de-
cclved me: that he had deceived every ,
one: that I Intended to tell his son Max .
how he had deceived him and his
mother, nnd me.
“Alwsye Tomorrow."
“Afterwards 1 went to his office on
Saturday night. I told him that I was
going away; that I could not stand It
any longer; that I knew that he did
not Intend to do anything for me; that ;
I would go away eomewhere and start
all over again."
Mrs. Bradley said that after leaving
the senator’s office she went to her ho- t
tel nnd that the text day the senator
came to see her. Again he did not tell
her definitely what he was to do. "He
told me he would see me again tomdr- 1
row, tomorrow. Judge. He always said
he would come back tomorrow."
Nearing Day of Tragedy,
At times he would promise to give
me what I needed to go Into business
and then again he would change com
pletely. I asked him if he would give
inc 3350 cash and obtain 3350 credit for
me, and he said, "Why. yes, you can
get 31,000 If you want It.' Lator lie
said he was not going to do anything,
and I just did not know which way
to turn or what to do.”
Mrs. Bradley then detailed her Illness
and suffering on December I, Just eight
days before the tragedy, stating that
ahe was very III. both mentally and
physically. Judge Powers, as lie neared
the day of the tragedy, grew very de
liberate In his questions and almost
unconsciously brought Mrs. Bradley up ;
to the time when she reached Ogden on I
the way to Los Angeles and turned .
back Instead to Washington. She told
of exchanging the ticket and begin
ning the Journey to Washington, where
ahe knew that tha senator hud pre
ceded her.
Sick and Disconsolate.
I "What was the condition of your
mind and body then, Mrs. Bradley?"
"Oh, I don't know. Judge. I don’t
know what my feellngH' were. I wa.s
so sick, so disconsolate. For two nights
I had not nlept. I hail headaches; ev- ;
erythlng It seemed.
“I did not ent at all on Friday, I
felt so badly. I was bo weak from th*»
effects of my Illness of December 1. I i
stayed up Just through will power.”
At ri!l< j. .in* aft*'.* having trace.] the
witness' Journey across the continent
as far a* Chicago, the court adjourned
for recess.
The Turning Point.
“Do you know, Mrs. Bradley, why
you changed your purpose when you
reached Ogden? Why you started
back to Washington?” J
With a peculiar little catch In her :
voice and with a tone pathetic In the
extreme she said;
“I suppose the Impulse seized me,
Judge, when I neared Ogden, and real
ized that It wax the starting point. !
Then she told In the same strain of the
inconveniences of the Journey, of be
ing detained for a day by a wreck at
some point In Wyoming, of Hapless
nights and restless flay.-*, eaeh drawing
nearer and nearer to the moment when
>!.*• n Hrn in the Kalelgh
Hotel and shot him.”
Lucy Durham won the prizes at the Allihe Patterson and Mr. John Milam, stated that all the facta as regards I had attempted to take his bouse. We i>!c having tu<
