By CHARLES 80MERVILLE. By Private Leased Wire. , , New York, June 28.—Death ending any man’s life ran never be a more terrible figure than as it stands now at the coffin of Stanford White. It Is- not only the manner In which It came upon him, although that was very, terrible; a man of, large renown ehot down aa an unclean crea ture, kicking hla legs grotesquely under a wine-stained table, blood epote on hie white ehtrt front, clutching with wild hands at hla throat with a heavy, whitening face upturned In'the glare of a thousand lights to show hundreds ot strangers’ eyes his death agony, while for his dirge there was the bitter tinkle of silly music, LIGHT ON THE 8ECRET WAY8 O’ LIFE. It was not only th* manner that death came to him, but even more terrible le the aspect It has since assumed. It has taken a torch with a relentless light Into the secret ways ot the life ot this man of fame. It haa turned him Infamous. He gaunt fingers have stripped his bier of the laurels that his genius woh and ..raw* over his whits, dead face's cloak of obllquy. Madison Square Garden—the greatest monument of his high talents— has been disclosed as his den of sin and shame, even aa It waa here In the great building that his genius had wrought death struck him down as he sat with his bleared eyes conning the supple, lithe youiig dancers of th* chorus—so like so many other choruses out of which ha had, with his wealth, hla distinction, his subtleties born of keen knowledge of tho world, lured to his aldo with villainous Intent to many foolish young creatures. NONE EXEMPT FROM 8CANDAL-TIPPED TONGUE. And even among men of easy mode of life. In whlrh a code of morals haa no real place—even among this sort, death puts Stanford While In contempt. If among them he was not In contempt before. For. year In and year outvie had wielded a scandal-tipped tongue against hla very vlcllme. He had ho remorse, and he had no pity. They might go away from him, very young and very shame-stricken, trying to start Ufa anew. They might advance to first places In the theatrical world. They might strive hard with honest ambitions and win. Or some decent fel low might lead one of them to the altar. He did not watch .such careers silently. Over the cafe or club tables It waa hla sport to move his sneer ing, heavy Ups In recounting the past, and his tongue never faltered when It reached the mention of a woman's name. And If he ever kept silence, he used such silence aa a whip to lash at will some wretched young creature back Into hla vicious slavery. HE HAD WON GREAT FAME AND 8UCCES8. To those only who knew hla greatness, he was a fins, splendid figure-,- a man of fame and succees In the ripeness of years—Stanford White, son of a celebrated Journalist, brilliant in hla architectural studies at the Uni-, verslty qf New York, and In hie travels through France and Italy, the tal ented pupil of Richardson,' whom he surpassed; the moat artlatto, member of the great firm of McKIm, Mead A White, the designer ot the Imposing Madison Square Garden, the lofty, simple Washington arch, and many other noted buildings. And again, fortunate Stanford White, hla wife, a stately handsome wom an, formerly a Mias Elisabeth Smith, of Smlthtown, Long Island, and an heiress; his son, a sturdy young fellow at college; and ngaln, prominent Stanford White, with his name on the roster of the best clubs of th* city, and his name always on thfe Invitation lists ot great banqueta and other functions. 1 In an amazing manner, he successfully lived his life of fine labor and his Ilfs of Iniquity. Promptly at 9 o'clock every morning ho waa at his of fice. He worked easily, yet vigorously and thoroughly. Then he rolled In hla carriage or hla automobile—seldom to his home—almost Invariably to the haunts whither his vtclousncsa dragged him. Hla strong body,and brain paid the enormous tax without weakening. HAD A STUDIO IN HIGH TOWER. The first night found him present In a theater In correct attire, the leader of a group of wealthy men who are pleased to be termed bon vl- vants. From the. front of the house he went back to the wings. No manager blocked hla way to securing Introductions to such pretty women as his eye fell keenly upon. ' The more youthful one might be, the keener was his glance. With hla wealth, his Influence In theatrical circles, his lavish gifts, his masterful Intellect and magnetlo manner, the luxurious allurements of his magnificent studio In Madison Square Garden, the man was temptation In carnate. , High In the tower was hla studio. It was safely to be used for any evil purpose. He was a director of the building. Ills word to any subordi nate was law. He brought poor yoling creatures there—girls recruited from the humble homes of the city, and saw them bewildered In the big square room with Its soft red lights, Its beautiful pictures In glinting, heavy golden frames; Its marvels ot tapestries and rugs. Its silk-draped lounging spots. Its wine-stocked buffet. Id a part nt It he had a cunningly contrived set of mirror* that,showed his visitors from every point ot view. Far above the city, tsr from the reach of Its noise, beyond sight and hear ing, White had his den. WOMAN BELABORED HIM WITH AN UMBRELLA. Sometimes he took crowds there. There they held orgies. Whits and such men as he drew around him In the diversions he Invented, had a club In Twenty-eighth street. It waa called the ’’Chorus Girls' Club.” Yet all the time White had gone unscathed up to a week ago. It waa at night. In front of the New York theatdr. White, with his high hat, cruahed down, his claw-hammer tails flying, sped away to escape a woman who belabored him with an umbrella—a woman scalded by bis freely ut tered scandal. Beautiful Evelyn Nssblt Thaw cam* to New York's few days ago with her young husband. Whits laughed knowingly to his cronies. They re membered the affair when Evelyn Neshlt was a little girl among th* studios of New York; of when she appeared In the choruses; of White's Interest In her. And White sneered at the maddened young husband who cam* to him. And he sneered at th* threats that th* erased and desperate young fellow uttered. H* plied the young woman with letters that made her shudder. Then the tragedy. A Good Thing Push It Along. ATLANTA TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION, P. 0. Box 266. ROUND TRIP Summer and Convention Rates.
