CHAPTER VI.
ATLANTA. Ga ? Oct. 20.?Of
Course I knew nothing of theae
subterranean attacks of the
Candler "family while I awaited
?Mr. Candler in Reno? other than
< the news he sent me in his letters.
They perturbed me the very
slightest. I had implicit confi
dence in Mr. Candler s character.
[ believed him firm of purpose
and honorable of intent. Believ
ing those things, I could see little
to worry about.
Then on the morning after he
Waa supposed to have left At
lanta for Reno, I received a tele
cram from Him. He simply in
formed me that eventualities had
prohibited his leaving Atlanta at
that time, told me to be of good
cheer, and. expressed undying
affection.
Fatal Letter Comes.
This telegram was followed by a
letter. That letter contained the
dynamite that tore to shreds the re
gard I had for Mr. Candler's char
acter and opened my eyes to the
depths to which my foes would?
descend to forward their c-onspiracy.
Mr. Candler'? letter told me that
he had received Information from a
aource he could not question, which
made tt Impossible for me to ever
be the mistress of'the Candler home.
He professed that his heart was
broken. He declared that he did not
believe the reports. He asserted,
however, that they had been broad
I ?listed over Atlanta and that thl?
Uierson would preclude by ever being
?received socially tn the city that he
? practically owned. He pleaded that
he was acting for my happiness, that
he couldn't bear to bring me to At
lanta to see me snubbed and insulted
What manner of a man he con
ceived himself to ' be who would
permit his wife to be inaulted or
?nuhiied, I can't imagine, out that
was his pitiful plea, the wall ot th?
weakling. I know then that the
man I had promised to Join In
wedlock was not the strong, virile
character I had so fondly lmagln?*d,
but a senile jellyfish, who either
wouldn't or couldn't fight for the
thing? and the woman he professed
to love.
Of course, I waa enraged. When
I was first told of the Candler
objections to our marriage I had
hastened to urge Mr. Candler to
break the engagement. In fact, I
had written him that it was broken.
"Tou are cruel," he wrote me,
while pledging his undying love
and loyalty.
Again when he wrote me that his
family was making "my life ?? hell
on earth," I answered that I
thought It best that we see no more
of each other.
Pleaded for I.ove.
Again he wrote pleading for my
love and companionship. And now
When I had acceded to hi? requests.
?.? had bisee halted prucclcallv on'
j.s way tc the altar by an Inform
ant, who waa too cowardly to reveal
hla or her Identity.
, I wrote Immediately demanding
|he name of my accuser and the
? nature of the accusation. Mr.
Candler finally wrote an apologetic,
half-hearted letter in which he said
the Information had been given him
by a person under pledge of secrecy,
?nd that he could not violate thia
pledge, aa though a man who had
violated the pledge to the woman
who had consented to become his
wife couldn't violate a word given to
a miserable and anonymous and per
jured spy end Informer.
The Information, though, he said,
was that while ? was in Atlanta
attending the ?Confederate reunion I
had invited two traveling men to
come to my rooms In the Piedmont
hotel for Immoral purposes.
The Imnniy Of It.
Imagine the lgnomy of It?and the
"absurdity. The lady named by
Oeneral Van Zandt, commander in -
chlef of the United Confederate
Veterans, to guard over the fairest
girls of the Southland, who had been
made the sponsors and maids to lend
the beauty and charm to this gather
ing of the heroes of the gray; this
lady, surround??d night and day by
girls and matrons, by hadged and
uniformed cavaliers of the highest
social station In the South, had ??>???
out of her way to. solicit two travel
ing men to see her clandestinely In
a hotel that was crowded to suffoca
tion In rooms that were never oc
cupied by lea? than four persona at
one time.
And this waa the sort of infor
mation that a man who had been
h?Snori?d by my. acquaintanceship
had been willing* to accept aa Strong
enough to brenk ties, which he
told me were dearer to him than
life Itaelf.
It's revolting to think? of! t
communicated with my attorney?
In? New Orleans. 1 set an investi
gation of my. own afoot, and not
until then did I discover the lengths
to which the (handler family had
gone to keep from slipping from
their clutches U"' millions that
remained to Aaa Q. Candler, after
he had generously played King
I?eer and divided about (20.000,000
bainone them.

Cossack Conductor "Plays'*
on Ukrainian Chorus as
"Human Symphony."
Alexander Koahetz, the Cossack
conductor, was the outstanding- fea
ture of the firat concert of the
Ukrainian National Chorus yester
day afternoon at the New President
theater. Another concert wlll.be
given Monday afternoon.
Laud the remarkable singing
qualities of the 45 native-garbed
singers all you want, extol the
plaintive beauty of the Ukrainian
folk songs to the skies, but if you
were among the all too few music
lovers at yesterday's concert, you
will return with Increasing amass
ment to Koahets, the master.
The work of the Ukrainian Na
tional Chorus Is a contribution of
distinctive character and lasting
value. Breathing the life history
of a country the inhabitants of
which have eked out a ' trying ex
latence, the choristers voiced the
aspiration of their native land In
music of strangely pathetic power.
The marvelous viol-like quality of
the astonishingly deep basses, the
flutey sopranos, the clear, bell-like
tones of the tenors and the
"motherly" voices >of the altos, all
keyed up to the highest pitch of
choral perfection, mystified the audi
ence.
Koshets a Marvel.
Koahetz wps not a conductor In the
generally accepted sense of the word.
He played his human symphony.
Eschewing the baton, this broad
shouldered Coaaack, by a crook of
the little finger, brought out a cer
tain brassy quality In tbe basses, or
by a wave of the hand swayed his
human Instrumenta into a great
crescendo, followed by a diminuendo
which tapered off into nothingness.
The program was divided Into five
parts, each containing four or five
numbers. The chorus work consist
ed of dainty little folk songs and can
ticles. The folk song which won
moat applause was "I Sat Spinning,
Spinning," by Leontovich. "Koaa."
a boisterous number by the same
composer, ended with a real Cosaack
shout.
Koshetz himself is a composer of
no mean ability. Hia "A Violin Is
Playing in the Street" waa admir
ably executed, aa was hie "Poor Haw
thorne," "I Wish to Oo to the
Meadow" and "The Young Monk."
The "monk" must have been a
merry fellow who did not take hia
religious vows any too seriously,
judging from the lilting melody. Bui:,
then, as Koshetz points out in tho
title of the aong, he was a young
monk.
?Soprano Appeals.
Mlle. (Ma Slobodskaja. leading dra
matic soprano of the Russian Opera
St Petrograd, and a newcomer on the
American concert stage, aang a
series of songs which appealed to the
audience. Of course, there were
many curtain calls and flowers for
the singer, all of which she justly
deserved.
Mile. Slobodskaja 1b a statuesque
woman. She has a powerful dra
matic voice, her top not?e are clear
?is a bell and almost uncannily
"true," and her personality is ap
pealing.
She aang the -ria from "Russian
and Ludmlla," by Glinka; a simple
melody, "Look, Pretty Maiden," by
DargomijBky; Ceaaar Cul's "Oealre";
"The Dream," by Olasounoff; scene
of Nataacha from the opera
"Ruasalka," by Dargomljsky; "Had
I Only Known," Tschalkowsky:
"The Nymph," Rfmeky-Koraakoff.
and the plaintive reverie and wild,
care-free dance from "The Fair of
Sorotchlnsk," by Mousaorgsky.
In paying tribute to Mile. Slo
bodskaja, the audience did hot for
get to applaud the efforts of Alex
ander Lablnsky, accompanist.
It ie too bad many scat? were
empty In the beautiful new Presi
dent Theater. Perhaps by Monday
afternoon, when the news of the
tremendous success of the Ukrain
ian National Chorus haa been broad
cast, the house will be filled to
overflowing, as In New York, when
hundreds were turned away at the
opening .concert.

the local State

{North Dakota
seems likely to
continue to be
WUal.lAM HARD, beaded by an
AnU-Nonpartlaan, laeague governor,
butjhe United. States seems likely
to acquire another Nonpartlaaii
League Senator.
These two facts may seem contra
dictory ?tnd inconsistent stid yet they
are not. After much talk here with
bankers and grain grdVers and tory
lawyers and radical agitators and
neutral commercial gentlemen, ani
after reading the platform and
speeches of the contending local and
national factions, I think that the
following summary of tbe Situation ia
reasonably accurate:
1?This State is not opposed to tbe
general drift of the policies of the
non-partisan league. It la 'not op
posed, for Instance, to the State
owned bunk or to the State-owned
elevator -and flour mill.
3?It recalled l.ynn J. Frazler from
the office of Rnvernor last year, not
because It disagreed with bis policies,
but bac*?ni*K? In the operation of tin s.
policies the non-parusan league of
fice hold, ra In State office had been
muniresti y guilty Of much ineffici
ent administration tmd of much ad
ministration very loose, very political
and very costly.' -
3?Mr. NestoB. who was elected
governor last year In the same elec
tion in which. Mr. Frazler was re
called from being governor, haa
ardently'continued to complete the
building of the State-owned elevator
and flour mill end has also ardently
developed the land mortgage loan
business of the State-owned bank.
His argument for himslef Is that
he doe? theae things very- much bet
ter than Mr. Frazler did them.
4?Mr. Frazler, however, although
he seemed to be convicted of in
efficiency In the management of
North Dakota's State-owned enter
prise?, waa never himself convicted
of any direct personal dishonesty in
the management of them, and since
he will not be obliged to manage any
of them in the I'nited .States Senate,
it seems to be Ukely to be thought
that he might'just as well go to the
United States Senate.
Sucn-'ia the general political situ
ation, laving still back ox it there
must oe considere?! the tragic gen
eral economic situation of the great
grain growing lands in this whole
region. Thousands of acres which
used to grow wheat in thia region
are now growing weeds. People
find it cheaper to let a lot of
their land grow weeds than to
make It grow .wheat. I sat this
morning in tho office of a very
?onl and .very ant I-non-part 1 san
league banker and heard him aay:
"if we cannot find some way
by which to close thf gun between
the high lerel Of what tbe farmer
has to? pay for his supplies and
for his labor and tbe, low level of
what he gets for Mm products. It
wlft not, be flv* years before we
shall be looking at fields which
are empty of farmers. They will
not stay .on the soil if things do
not chanae."
Rarikers ' throughout this North
west do not for one moment try
to make out that the. farmers are
inflated and excessively prosperous
people who by means of the Non
partisan League and by means of
State banks and State flour milla
are trying sltll further to line
their fat pockets. On the contrary,
and In spite ' of all the attacks
made upon them by the Non-parti
san League, theae )>ankrrs are In
truth entirely appreciative of the
difficulties of the farmers. The
tragedy of the situation la that
the?*?on-part lean League farmers
think that the bankers are part
of a Wall Street conspiracy to ruin
"them. Which Is ridiculous; and the
bankers for the moat part think
thst the Non-partisan League haa
something or other to do with
Lenin and TrotsKy. Which In prac
tice Is equally ridiculous.

NEW BRUNSWICK. N. J., Oct.
Ith?A?' amazing love-eplstle found
in the effects of Mrs. Eleanor K.
Mills suddenly has developed a com
pelling angle In the Hall Milis
double slaying mystery. It is as
though a voice from the grave had
spoken in an effort to untangle
the baffling murder of the Rev. Ed
ward Wheeler Halt and his "won
der-heart," Mrs. Eleanor R. M Hin.
The Waahlngton Times is able to
reveal, through one of the minis
ter'a soul-baring letter? to Mrs.
Mills, evidence of a definite break
between Mrs. Hall, tbe wife, and
Mrs. Milla, the soul mate.
So acute waa that break, aa is
disclosed hy the letter of the stain
rector, thst It wa? made an n
portant subject of correspondence
between the' two love-letter writers.
In ? missive written on a Sunday
afternoon laat August while the rec
tor waa vacationing with his wife at
Islesford, Me., he wrote to his be
loved choir singer:
"Sunday afternoon. Dear, dear,
dear woaderheart of mine! I feel
aa though I were beginning an
endlea? letter to you. Darling, I am
talking to you no conetantly, asleep
?nd awake, that 1 know you muat

you a little of all the thoughts and

rushing through me these past slays.

your pain?I am afraid the swim

much, for It waa? cold In the car

but it was not the swimming itself.
We will go In together dearest heart,
for, as you aay, we muat do every
thing together. Juat our first op
portunity we will go to Murray?

later could we arrange a trip? Then

There Is no possibility. It Is salJ.
of Inducing a sufficient number of
Senators to change their votes on
the bill or upon th? veto to permit
the meaeure to become a law, there
fore the bonua advocate? hav? no
alternative, but to wait until the ex
pect qf the Senate change?, when It
may be poasllbllle to win enough re
crults to put- some kind ?f bonus
meaeure through.
Among the Senators who will re
tire on March 4 Is McCumber ef
North Dakota, author o** tbe bill,
which in? urrod the Presidential veto
and subsequent rejection by the Sen
ate. So long as he remains in the
Senate, it was stated, he will Insist
upon having his own bill considered
to the exclusion of ell other attempts
to frame a bonua measure, and as
this bill already has bajen d-ifealed,
there Is no chance for any bonus bill
to be taken up. ? ?
