After Witnessing Tragedy,
but Without Avail

rooms at , the Marquise apartments.

The girLiess than 25 years old. came
to San Francisco from Chicago nine
months ago. The city with all its ex
citement, frolic and fup drew her away
from her husband. S. J. Levy, but the
latter refused to give her up. He fol
lowed her within a month and found
h*r living the life of the night hours.
His pleas for her return were futile;
but he stayed near her. taking up quar
tets at the Hotel Dale, hoping against
hope that she would realize the bitter
emptiness of it all and go back to him.
WORDS OF COMFORT USELESS
Last Friday he took her to a produc- |
tion of "The City." When they left the
theater the girl was silent and moody.
She clung to her husband and begged
him to accompany her to her rooms.
As they walked back home she repeated
the lines of the play, speaking bitterly
of the city, recalling the early days of
their marriapr*.
"We're crowded in too close," Fhe '
said. "That's why we become — become
— wild."
"Let's start all over again — away
from the city." The husband began th»>
old plea, but she stopped him with a
laugh, v \
"I belong to the city," she said. "Tt
will kill me to leave it and, it will .kill
me if I don't."
To his words of comfort fhe did not
answer, but bowed her head so that
he n^ght not. see the tears in her eye?.
Silently, they walked home.
CITY CLAIMS VICTIM
She hucrled by the raucous crowds
and the garish lights, clinging closely
to him. He unlocked her apartments
*nd as h<? switched on the electric light
t-he put her arms around him and
nestled to him. Tnen, she left him,
going to her bedroom.
A few minutes later the husband,
looking up. saw her in the doorway.
her fa«^ drawn with agony, and as he
jumped to his f*»*t she staggered for
ward a few steps and fell at his feet.
"Sty mouth burns," she cried.
He had her removed to Ft. Wini
fred's hospital and a desperate effort
".as made to save her life, but without
avail, and at 2:30 o'clock yesterday
morning the city claimed another

DARK ROOM "NEGATIVE"
Romance- of Art Leads to
Marriage of Miss Perry.
And W. E. Dassonville
From developing prints to printing
developments, the romance of Gert
rude Parry, debutante and art* student,
and" W. E.; Dassonville, photographer,
art patron and Bohemian." was un
folded Friday in • the quaint little
Swedenborgian church at Lyon and
Washington streets, when the pastor,
Dr. Joseph Worcester, completed the
work. of cupld, and in the presence of
the parents of the couple, joined them
in marriage. Planned in quiet, 'de
veloped in the dark room, the affair
was closely guarded from public light
and much secrecy surrounded tha lit
tle party which made the_ wedding
guests.
The bride is the daughter of Dr.
and Mrs. KJward E. Perry, a promi
nent social bud and a favorite in a
number of exclusive sets in this arid
the bay cities. Her home has been in
Marin for a number of years, but soon
after her debut a season ago. she be
came deeply involved in photographic
studies in this city. The Dassonville
studio was her art mecca and the
plates, films., prints, chemicals, colors
and compositions the fairyland through
which cupl.l led the student . and the
master. . Bohemia beckoned and the
secrets were unfolded. Gradually the
hum of the Gr^enway -waltz was lost
in the fascination of the land of art.
In a vague way the friends of the
couple knew of their, mutual interest
in art. lltiwas at first regarded as a
social fad. But love proved to be a
rabid faddist and clanged forth the
triumph of hearts in the happy chimes
of weddFng bells.
Dassonville has earned a high stand

$10,000 SETTING FOR
PEDERSEN'S CANVASES
Artist's Exhibition Will Be Held
Tomorrow
For the purpose of giving, an oriental
setting to the canvases of Hugo V.
Pedersen, which will be exhibited next
Tuesday, the tapestry room of the St.
Francis will be covered with cloth of
gold, and an avenue of yew' trees will
lead from the entrance to the north
wall, on which will be hung the great
canvas of the Taj Mahal by moonlight.
The lighting effects will contribute, to
the illusion of the actual palace seen
through its famous approach, and 1 the
visitors will be carried into a glorious
moonlit scene under tlie luminous In
dian skies. The expense of preparation
for this setting will cost almost rJIO.OOO.
Pedersen has selected his most famous
scenes, the traditional moonlight festi
vals, the golden pagoda and the gorge
ous processions of the Durbar, as well
as his finest ajid most unusual portraits
of the Indian princes and the various
types in Java, Sumatra and the-high
ways'and byways of the lands of the
far east. There will be more than 150
of these on , the walls of the tapestry
room of the St. Francis on Tuesday, 1
canvases remarkable for their color and
the shimmering atmosphere of _the
orient. .
Pedersen, who has spent a generation
in the orient, was the first man to paint
the women of East Indian royalty.' HeT
has made, a fortune of approximately
$1,000,000 through, his commissions' from
the British and native nobility *in In
dia. \ and is the possessor of numerous
decorations. *
He asserts, howevei, that he does not
value these evidences 'of royal favor,
and is taking his collection before the
critical- judgment of the Occident. .\u25a0>\u25a0 •
Savants who have had /a preliminary
view of the canvases assert that the ex
hibition will comprise some of the. most
interesting . paintings , ever shown jin
America, and ithat Pedersen's j technique
is a revelation of extraordinary power
and individuality. ' ,
