Vera Black's Husband (ietsj
That Small Halm tor Loss
of His Wife's Love.
WAS "COLLEGE WIDOW"
rwo Surprises Sprung at End
tit Trial for Alienation
! Affections.
vsiMi her "million dollitr smile" and
all bar charm, the affections of Vera
Black, the colleRe widow, as s wife
are worth six rents. That's what a
jjury In Justice Dugi'o'a court decided
to-day In the suit brought by John
Krnesl Wudlelgh, former husband of
Miss Black, airainat Lorlng Tonkin.
Cornell graduate, for $50,000 damages
'for stealing the affections of the "col
lege widow."
A Jury nt former trial of the suit
could not decide just what the "col
lege widow's" affections wcro worth
and disagreed. Home argued In the
jury room that there was m. affec
tion and others took the stand that
they were ut least worth $.1,000.
The trial of the caae disclosed for
IBs Brat time that a code of ijthlca
existed among a set of BPWII women
who lived at Ithaca, N. Y., and lie
came college widows to the St. I. lots
at Cornell Fnlverslty, where Tonkin
wns a student. Among the rules they
followed In their flirtations with the
students the most Important was not
to Interfere with u student's studies
or keep him from attending his
classes.
Another rule, which one college
widow testified was disregarded by
Vera Hlark, wus to forget the students
when they left college. Miss Black
forgot Tonkle, her pet numn forTonk-
'n
by testifying against him In the
roll which her former husband
brought against Tonkin after he was
graduated
The defense sprung two sensations
ul the close of the trial, when Capt.
John l.anyon. heud of s detective
agency, and tleorge H. O'Hara, super
intendent of on apartment house at
No. $129 Hroadway. testified.
Four years ago Ijinyon testilled he
was employed to Investigate for Will
iam Mtr. a New Jersey automobile
dealer the character of Vera Black,
who wus then Wudlelgh's wife. The
witness said that u suit for alienation
or his wire's ulTectlons wus threatened
by Wadlelgh against Klder. This was
before she met Tonkin. The suit as
never brought. I.un on explaining that
he went to see Vera Black and told
her thut if she. took any part In the
suit wMh her husband, "some on
would go to jail."
on-the stand Vera Hluck said her
smile was worth a million dollars.

"Then Ahy did thut company fall?"

pay up $1,800,000 of loans that we
wished to continue. That caused us
to rail."
Vogel aaid that while he, person
ally, hud never borrowed money from
Henry Hlegel A Co., hankers, he had,
with Hlegel, borrowed Immense sums
from the bunk for use of the stores.
The stores were numbered. Hlmp

provemeota. pari of tba proceeds
, will be used lo retire the $27,000,000
short term notes Issued last year,
'which wus resorted to because there

linger than ever, nearly equalling
those ror the New York City Bales,

the BMjoHly of bond exports ex
They thought a bid of from 10,". 1-1 to
1." 3-4 would secure the entire issue,
whereas the big bid was on the basis
above 1". At this price the income,
basis is less than 4JJ0 per cent.
A most
important
point
Do you know that coffee,
like butter, absorbs odors?
That its flavor is as easily
impaired.
That often its whole char
acter is lost.
Yuba n, the A r buckle
Guest Coffee, is packaged
while freshly roasted, and
sealed in all-tin containers.
This preserves its flavor,
brings it to you with itm
full strength.
Order a package of Yu
ban. Notice its ireehneem
and flavor.
