'.' Second Romance Begins Then began the second romance two and a half years ago. Between Mrs. j Rigo. who was formerly Mrs. Caspar Emerson, wife of a prominent artist, and. before that. Miss Katherine Had ley. daughter of Professor Hartley of Philadelphia, a^d her cousin, the Prin cess Chimay. there is a strong family likeness. On arriving in Aew York Ripo went to the Waldorf-AFtorU. and din- Ing there on the evening of his arrival was the then Mrs. Caspar F.merson. •I look." said Ripo. "and by the sods ] think it is ?he at first! I stop. \u25a0 1 »m fa'.nt. So much is she like her."' •Then we met," said Mrs. Rigo. 'and that was the beginning." -And your husband — Caspar Emer son?" sho was asked. She shrugged her shoulders. "We had agreed to separate before this meeting." said she. "After I secured a divorce from him — he dropped. 1 have never heard of him since ami 1 don't believe any one else has. Two years ago I married Mr. Rigo and since that time we have been in this coun try. Rigo has his violin — " "Ah! My violin:" broke in Rigo, and the man changed. He opened one of the four cases and drew out an instru ment. "A present." he said, "from the Prin cess Chimay." His nervous fingers sought the bow and the next instant the room throbbed with the melody of his genius. HIS VIOLI.\ SPEAKS •'Y^-0.-es." said he. "1 play. So! A woman, she laughs." His nimble fingers moved among the strings and 1 there burst forth a lilting refrain, a laugh, for all the world, a laugh from the happy heart of a woman. " So -" said lie. again, "a woman — she cries." He played again, in softer cadence this time, and the room was filled with the sobbing of the music. "You know." said his wife, repeat ing again, "you know." He answered in guttural Czech. Then, flourishing his bow, he laughed joyous ly. "'Ripo's Waltz,'" he said, "now for "Rigo's Waltz.' " With a smile on his face, which grad ually disappeared as he p'.ayed. and the dark gipsy eyes half closed in the •\u25a0•\u25a0•Stacy of his own genius, he played the waltz of his own composing, and from that floated from melody to mel ody till he wearied of the game. Then, with the flush of the music still onveloping- him. he delved into the his tory of the past. A letter he brought out from Mrs. Morrow, mother of the Princess Chimay, read: "Mrs. Morrow wiil be pleased and very grateful if Monsieur Rigo will terminate his engagement at the Folies Be.rperes." "Bah," said Rigo. tossing the letter aside. "That woman — that woman • thought me base. I, who made Paris "listen to me." rnixcEss writes constantly "That's all done with." said Mrs. Rigo, "and now if the princess would only remember you are nothing to her all would be well. The Princess Chi may." she added, "has been writing to Mr. Rigo •-onsta.ntlv. Three months ago he received a letter from her in Paris, and later s*till another one from Berlin. Since then we have reason to believe ' that she is following us. A strange voman made repeated efforts to com municate with him over the telephone, and I am sure, judging by her voice, that it was Clara." The Princess Chimay prior to her marriage was a Miss Clara Ward.

J BUTCHER IS NOBLER THAN HUNTER, SAYS MRS. FISKE Declares Former President's Slaughter of Animals Bad Example for Boys - {Special Dupatch to The Call] LOS ANGELES, June 10. — Mrs. Min nie Maddern Fiske, who is playing in Los Angeles in "Salvation Nell," ve hemently denounced former President Roosevelfs killing of animals, in a statement given to the press today. "There is small bravery required in the killing of wild ajvimkls." she said, "and perhaps the attitude of the butcher is nobler than that -of the hunter.". Mrs. Fiske gave out the statement without solicitation, "moved by a, hu manitarian impulse to say .something in behalf of the poor dumb, brute." as she said lat*--r. The statement is in part as follows: "Men and women the world over, who most appreciate the line qualities of our chief executive can not sym pathize with his present enterprise. "Thousands of our American boys want to be like the president. The photographs reproduced in this morn ing's papers can. not be said to have an uplifting effect upon the modern youth of the United States. There is Fmall- bravery required in the killing shortly. The other members of his company Will arrive soon. Mrs. Rigo is undecided as to her movements. "The probabilities are." she said, "that I -shall not be here when Mr. Rlgo opens his engagement. My health has not been of the best of late and I think I will go to Carlsbad very soon. I in tended going there some months ago, but wanted an opportunity of seeing the Pacific coast. This is our first trip." IS TAKEN fOR COUSIN So strong 'is her resemblance' to the Princess Chimay that Mrs. Isabella Martin, who within recent months has earned for herself an unenviable crim inal fame in California, attacked her in Atlantic City, thinking her to be the princess. "I was being wheeled in a chair, said Mrs. Rigo, "when a strange woman with a boy of about 16 came along and called me Princess Chimay. I told her she was mistaken, but she would not believe me. and pushing the boy for ward toid me to gaz« upon 'my son John.* I tried to explain to the woman that she was laboring under a great mietake. but she would have none of it and finally pulled me from the chair to the ground. "At another time she jumped into a hansom in which I was traveling in New York and* repeated her words. From what I could gather she evidently wanted me to accept the boy as my son and provide him with the rights and privileges allowed to John, the eld est son of the Princess Chimay." The woman was Mrs. Isabella Martin and the boy the famous "Baby' John. Mrs. Martin was recently sentenced to the penitentiary for lifo for the dyna miting of Judge .Ogden's home in Oak land. Rigo declared that the beauty of the Princess Chimay had now completely disappeared and that 6he never walked outside without her veil. He said that she had noticed a piece of tattooing on his arm and endeavored to have a sim ilar tint produced on her cheek, which would add a tinge of red to her won derful complexion. She paid a maid 1.000 francs to try the experiment, and it proved eminently successful. .She then put up her own fair cheek for the operation, with the result that od each side of her face there is now a. vivid blotch of ugly red.

He was Perrin's /attorney.

E.E. HALE Chaplain of Senate Breathes His Last in: His Home at : Roxbury, Mass. President and Mrs. Taft Lead /Whole Country in Expres sions of Sorrow : ; BOSTON, June 10.— The .morning light was breaking as Rev. Edward Everett Hale. D. D., chaplain of the United States senate, Unitarian divine, philanthropist, author. Journalist and lover of peace, ibreathed his last today, in his home in Roxbury. - At the bedside were his .wife, his daughter. Miss Ellen D. Hale, and his son. Philip L. Hale, the artist. The other sons, Arthur H/ile of Washington and Professor Edward Everett Hale Jr. of Union college, returned home this evening. Tomorrow it is. expected that partial arrangements for the funeral Monday in the South Congregational church, of which Dr. Hale was the pas tor emeritus, will be announced. WHOLE COI'NTRV MOUBNS On "his return from Washington a few weeks ago it wa«» reported that Dr. Hale was not in good health, but he soon regained his activities, and until Tuesday attended meetings and re ceived friends. It seemed as if the whole country joined in mourning the loss of Dr. Hale. Messages expressing sorrow and esteem poured into the Hale house hold, one of the first being from Presi dent and Mrs. Taft DEATH SHOCKS BOSTOX News of the death of Dr. Hale shocked Boston to an unusual degree. because comparatively few knew that he was ill. A week ago he .was pres ent at a celebration in honor of the ninetieth birthday of Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, his contemporary in many -of the reform movements with which both had been idenUfled for more than 50 years. To his family, it had been apparent for some time that Dr. Hale's health was failing. His great age, 87 years, militated against him. t But even yes terday he was up and about his apart ments. He retired at the usual time last night, but as the night passed Dr. Hale constantly became weaker until death 'came. ( NATIVE OF THE HUB Dr. Hale was born in Boston in April, 1822, and by training, education and tradition he represents throughout the 87 years of his life the spirit of the founders of the Alassachusetts Bay col ony. He was graduated from Har vard In 1839. He was actively con nected with the Boston Advertiser many years ago, and his first charge as a clergyman was a church in Worcester. He was a prolific, writer, and -had for years been allied with' the principal philanthropic movements of the city, state 'and nation. FAMOUS AS AUTHOR As an author Dr. Hale's fame rests on his short stories, such as "The Man Without a Country." As an instigator of social uplift, the work of the two great organizations, the Lend-a-Hand club and the King's Daughters, will al ways add to his renown; as a minister and pastor his half century in the pul pit of the South Congregatidnal church and his preaching in many other churches were prolific of wise spiritual inspiration; while as a historian his writings have become authorities. Besides being a preacher. Rev. Na than Hale was a printer, and in his of fice the son, Edward, learned type setting and developed a leaning . to ward newspaper work, which, during his college course at Harvard, he cul tivated by becoming a reporter on the Boston Advertiser. In later years, al though he had elected to follow his father's calling as a clergyman of the Unitarian faith, he became editor of the Advertiser, occupying the chair at the time of the civil war. Dr. Hale's pastorate at Worcester, over the Church of the Unity, followed service with a number, of smaller churches. The South Congregational church of Boston became Dr. Hale's ministerial home "in 1856. Since '1899 15r. : Hale has been pastor emiritus of theiparish. Mark' Twain Saddened \ -BALTIMORE, June 10. — Samuel L.. Clemens (Mark Twain), when informed of the death of Edward Everett Hale tdday, was greatly saddened.

PROHIBITIONISTS 4 WIN IN MENDOCINO COUNTY Ordinance. Enables Peof>le to Close Saloons [Special Dispatch to The Call] UKIAH. June 10. — At last the prohi bition wave has struck Mendocino county, with the result that 33 saloons scattered throughout the county will have to close their doors after July 1. The elimination of the saloons is caused by a recent ordinance passed by the board of supervisors of this county, which gives the people of each voting precinct outside of Incorporated towns a chance to say whether or not there shall be' saloons. At the, -meeting of ,the supervisors today 22-petitlons were presented with the required number of signatures ask ing that no license be granted saloons In certain districts. With the passing of the recent ordi nance all saloons outsiue of tne towns of Ukiah. Potter Valley, Fort Bragsr. Point Arena and Willlts can be closed if it is the will of the people.

Heretofore, nothing has been said In these columns about poslam, a new akin discovery, in connection with its use aftar shavlngr. Its publicity and sales have been con- fined almost exclusively to its remark- able properties as an eczema cure; it stops the ttchlns at once and cures the worst cases in a f^w days. While th« application of poslam after shavtns is one of its minor uses, such as for pim- ples, the complexion, etc.. shavers will find it a revelation, as it does for abra- sions, roughness, and severe scrapings what it does for all manner of skin difficulties — heals and cures in a few hours. It is the only article possessing real antiseptic and curative value that has ever been exploited for this pur- pose, and will soothe and tone up the skin as no toilet preparation could possibly do. • Poslam can be had for fifty- cents at any reliable druggist's, particularly the Owl Drug Co.. who make a spe- cialty of It.
