Mrs. Morris boarded a Central train De- '
> cember 26, 1911, at Rome with a pass as .
» her medium o transportation, as her hus- !
. band al that time was an engineer on .
the Central. Conductor Ruff refused to ‘
’ honoif the pass on the grounds that it
bore the date November 30, 1911, and was-
II out of date. Soon after leaving Silver
Creek the train was stopped and Mrs.
Morris was put off in an open field, she
• claims.
“She sure did give me a tongue lash-
> ing,” said Conductor Ruff on the stand.
• Indignant and enraged, Mrs. Morris
claims she had to walk to Dindale, a dis
tance of two miles, and from there catch
t a train back, to Rome. She had a photo
graph made of the pass and It was intro
duced in court. It bore the expiration
date of December 30. 1911.
"He calked to me like a dog." she said
referring to the conductor.

"We're going' to sing for these little
gills and play games with them and
make them feel like they are among
friends —1 think it'll just be line,” said
little Miss Stoddard.
Miss Marie took an active interest
in plans for the entertainment, and the
girls in general were enthusiastic over
the opportunity to help the little tots
of the cotton mill district. Miss Stod
dard was busy as a bee so days plan
ning different things to say and do to
aid in making the cotton mill kiddies

"We’re going to start the entertain

I don’t know what time it will stop,”
I she said, “but 1 guess we'll keep them
I there just as long ns they ar.- having a
good time. These little children don't
have much chance to enjoy recitations,
music and other good things, and we
will furnish it all to them in plenty. I

Alfriend Travels
In Auto Train.
Those who regret the passing of the
days of the “coach and four.” with a
eoa -hman and a footman and heralds
to go ahead and announce the Ap
proach of the grand gentleman, and
criticise modern modes of travel as
lacking in elegance will have a pleas
ant surprise if they watch Peachtree
street closely.
Edward W. Alfriend. the young so
ciety man, could make any of the old
Southern gentlemen snort with wound
ed vanity if they could only see him in
action with his three automobiles. Not
that owning three automobiles is un
usual; but Mr. Alfriend has a habit of
using all three of them at one time.
As the people were Wending their re
spective ways homeward from the the
aters the other night, this unique per
formance was observed.
Two intimate friends of Mr. Alfriend
drove up in one of his machines to a
Peachtree street candy store. Mr. Al
friend himself followed closely In an
other ear witli a young woman. A
chauffeur followed immediately behind
in a third of Mr. Alfriend’s automo
biles.
The two friends in the front car
jumped out and assisted Mr. Alfriend
and the young woman to alight. The
chauffeur stepper! from his machine and
began to adjust the lights ami the mats,
etc., in Mr. Alfriend’s machine, and
shortly after the members of the party
rolled out Peachfree street, in the same
order in which they had stopperl at the
candy store.

Shepard Captured Heiress Heart in Wreck
HOW HE WON MISS GOULD
ST. LOUIS. Dec. 19.—A romance
timid wreckage, darkness and disaster
attended the betrothal of Finley J.
Shepard and Miss Helen Miller Gould,
the famous New York heiress
The warm admiration that each had
felt for the other ripened into love that
could no longer be rept esse.l when the
lov.-il heiress ..r the Gould millions saw
her escort leave, after lie knew she was
safe, and bend his tremendous energies
to saving others whose lives were en
dangered by a terrific railroad wreck.
And when the man, after his work
was don.-, and order had been restored,
found the woman who has aroused the
admiration and love of the nation
quietly and unostentatiously minister
ing to helpless women and children who
knew her not, the emotions that he In
the past had been able to repress forced
his lips to speak the dictates of his
heart.
And Miss Gould did not say him nay.
Fate, hi more ways than one, mani
fested its mysterious workings in bring
ing about the engagement of -Mr. Shop
aid and Miss Gould. Before that rail
road wr.-ek on the West Shore, when
tile train tuas running at 67 miles an
hour. Miss Gould and President Bush’s
assistant liml to a long tin»<- been In
terested in lire same affairs, and in
man) nays (aeir last. w. r. in har
mony
Both were interested deeply in the
V. M. C. A. work, and it had been Mi.
Sliepar.Ts y Iv'de; •• to attenfi to many
little commissions or Miss Gould tend
ing to advance the work of the railroad
branches.
She rioted bls unobtrusive earnest
ness. his clear i.-asonitig. his thought
lessness of self, itis quickness of per
ception, Ids man y bearing and his high
character. And front ills close associa
tion he liu.l come to know Miss Gould.
How Bush Aided Romance.
President Bush, of the Missouri Pa
cific. whose assistant Mr. Shepard is.
had his hand in the romance, but he
does not to this day know of it. Mi.
Shepard was in Chicago on his way Io
S*. Louis, when I'.' receive.! a telegram
from his superior requesting him to
leturn to New York and escort Mis<
Gould to Chicago, whither she was go
ing with a partv of her friends to at
tend a convention of the Railroad Y. M.
C. A
M . Sh-p.nvi returned to New York
and bud a conference with Miss Goitli .
She was to attend a banquet in the
Illinois metropolis, and she had re
quested 'Mt. Shepa'd to arrange tli
details of a little luncheon that sir
wanted to give on a Saturday after
noon. She wanted to devote just as
much time to the cause as was possible
in Chicago, and yet she desired to re
main in New York as long as she could.
The details of tin railroad journey
were left to M‘ Shepard. E. B. Pryor,
one of the receivers of the Wabash,
was In New York with ills private ear,
and he placed this at the disposal .of
Miss Gould anil her part) I was at
tached to tile Chicago train anil tile
start was made.
The train was •• fast one, and It was
running over the New York Central
tracks at a high rate of speed. It was
s congenial party, ami the evening was
well spent before the ladies retired to
the staterooms In the front end of the
car and Mr. Pryor and Mr. Shepard
occupied the coaches In the rear.
Fate again interested itself in be
half of the romance, whsn at Syracuse
another coach was added to the train.
The receiver's car had been the last on
the train, but it was explained the
added coach was to be dropped at Buf
falo early in the morning, and It would
not interfere with the pleasure of 11.e
trip
Wreck Without Warning.
Hml not this added coach been at th"
rear of the train, and its weight at
been hurled from Hie track and its oc
cupants perhaps seriously injured.
The wreck occurred without warn
ing. There are four parallel tracks at
the point where the wreck occurred,
and a freight train, westbound on one
of the other tracks, had b> en wrecked
by an accident in the middle of tic
train. ami some of the cars had been
tossed onto tlie other tracks, on whii a
the speeding passenger train was com-*
ing. not a minute behind.
There was not time to read a flagman
back, ami in the dead of night the pas
senger train, making more than a mile
a minute crashed into the wreckage of
the freight train.
The impact was tremendous. The
heavy train was brought to an instant
stop. The train behaved Just as would
a bucking broncho. The middle cars
buckled upward, and a moment later
they dropped back on the ties. The
‘first great shock was succeeded rapidly
i by four others, each less In energy.
The lights were all extinguished. The
I passengers -and the train was crowded
—were in panic
The private car In which Mis- Gould
I was riding was not overturned But ft.
| was te ribly wrenched and twisted.
■ The mirrors imbedded in the walls were
I shattered, and there could be heard the
I crash of broken dishes and bric-a-brac.
The first thought of Messrs. Shepard
land Pryor was for their women charges.
Through the darkness they pushed their
way to the front part of the car. They
rapped on the stateroom door and
asked If Miss Gould or any of her parly
were Injured.
Miss Gould Not Hurt.
Miss Gould's voice, calm and clear,
' answered that no one was injured. Mr.
Shepard feared lest the doors had been
twisted so that the women would find
themselves prisoners, and he tried the
doors ami found they were free.
Then he gave thought to those on |
the other parts of the train. Leaving
Mr. Pryor with the ladies, he clam
bered out of the darkened t ir and ran
through the soft mud to the engine.
This had left the track, and the fireman
was crawling from the wreckage when
Shepard arrived.
Tlie engineer was pinioned by the
tender. Shepard, whose knowledge of
raflroadlrg is not all technical, seized a
shovel and ax and set about liberating
the engineer and giving relief to oth
ers. x
11. was so absorbed in his work that
lie did not observe the women standing
by in lite darkness for a few minutes
and vvuteliing his valiant efforts’ He
did not know that Miss Gould had seen
Him exerting ills brain and muscle and
that he caused her pulse to quicken by
what lie had done.
For nearly an hour he worked be
fore all who had been caught in the
debris had been liberated, and when his
task was done, he realized the. strain
under which lie had been working.
He hurriedly returned to the private
car, and when tie entered he was as
tounded to find Miss Gould not there,
Mr. Pryor told him she had gone on
ahead. He again hurried forth and
soon he saw a little woman, clad in
inodesl gray, with no hat covering her
smoothly brushed, dark hair. The face
he saw was placid, and in her hand she
carried a little box, from which she was
administering first aid to the injured
with the calmness of a trained nurse
The unfortunate women and children
to whom she gave tender attention had
no idea that the little woman who dealt
so gently witu them and who minis
tered so carefully, was none other than
Helen Miller Gould, on.' of the nation's
richest and best, beloved women
lint Finle) J. Shepard knew. And as
she had stood in the darkness half an
hour before and watched him perforin
tile work of a strong man, and admired,
so he stood and watched Miss Gould do
tile work of a noble v. ■ man, and he, too,
knew that her views were practical as
well as theoretical, and their hearts
went out to each oilier.
