Romance and Tragedy Bared by Veiled Divorcee's Death

Chicago, July 22. A life of romance a tragedy, pathos and sacrifice was revealed Friday, when there was drawn aside a thick, gray veil, always worn by Mrs. Catherine Porter a veil which led to her death. With her eye3 blinded behind its fine meshes, the was struck by an auto at Sheridan road and Leland avenue and instantly killed. The machine was driven by Charles Chapman, who surrendered to the police. This is a story about Mrs. Kate Porter, 52 years told, a domestic employed by W. 1 Hobbs, 93J Castlewood terrace. Such a bald statement on the accident book of the police, but W. F. Hobbs, who identified the body after the woman lay unrecognized at night at an undertaking establishment, told the remarkable story of Mrs. Porter's life. When only a young woman she was married to Sullivan C. Kdgar, a St. Louis Pteel man. He was rising in his business and soon acquired a fortune, and his Avife became a society leader. Then came a son. Over a petty matter Mr. and Mrs. Edgar are said to have quarreled. The breach widened and divorce followed, the courts giving the son into the custody of the father. He scarcely knew he had a mother when she went out into the world. She gave up her friends and her fine gowns and with the soft, white

hands that had been intended for a mother's duties, she became a domestic. The sorrowing wife and mother shielded her identity, donned the garb of the domestic and started out in the world to do her own battle. For years she fought her battle in St. Louis, but constantly she met friends. This was unbearable, and, giving up all hope of a chance meeting with her son, she came to Chicago. Five years ago she applied to Mrs. Hobbs for a position, which she obtained. Her appearance was good, her manners excellent, and she was highly recommended to Mrs. Hobbs by a friend who had gone to Europe. Not for several years, however, did Mrs. Porter give her confidence to her employer. Then she told her life's story, and this repeated by Mrs. Hobbs shows the sufferings, the heartaches and tragedy that filled the woman's life. Mrs. Porter's son, Sullivan C. jr., whom she idolized, has written to her on several occasions," said Mrs. Hobbs "but she never saw him because of the fear of his father, and, as she explained, the son had never known his mother and she entered but little into htis life. - "However, I wired the son at his club! one of the most aristocratic in St. Louis, and think he will be here to care for his mother's body, but in case he does not, I will take charge of it."

News Forecast For Coming Week

Washington, D. C, July 22. An ex

ceedingly busy weeek is in prospect

for the law makers of three great nations, which is rather unusual for midsummer.

The discussion of the proposed reci

procity pact between Canada and the

United States will engage the atten

tion of the Dominion Parliament at Ottawa.

In Washington the legislative activi

ties will be confined chiefly to the upper branch of Congress. According to the schedule as it now stands the Senate will vote Thursday on the House

wool revision bill, and on the Several succeeding days it will dispose of the

free list bill, the re-apporlionment bill

and the Statehood bill.

The period of acute crisis in the

matter of the veto bill before the British parliament will be reached during the coming week, when the House of Commons will almost certainly reject

the House of Lords amendments,

and the peers will have to make a

Inal decision. Of Interest to the politicians will

be the State convention of the Democratic party in Nebraska, Mr. Bryan's

home state. The convention is called to meet at Fremont on Tuesday to

draft a state platform and elect a state

committee. The Populists are to hold their state convention at the same time and place. Mgr. Stagni, the Papal delegate at Ottawa, will go to St. John's. Newfoundland, on Tuesday. Eminent prelates of the Roman Catholic church in Canada will assemble at St. John's Newfoundland, on Tuesday for the consecration of IU. Rev. Michael Power as bishop of Bay St. George, New Foundland. The Universal Races Congress, the

first gathering of its kind in the history of the world, will begin its sessions Wednesday at the University of London. It is expected that every race and every nation will be represented. The object of the congress is to "discuss, in the light of science and the modern conscience, the general relations between peoples of the West and those of the East, between so-called white and so-called colored peoples, with a view to encouraging between them a fuller understanding, friendly feeling, and a heartier co-operation." The annual Bayreuth festival, which never fails to attract a large number of English and American visitors to the little Bavarian city, will open Tuesday and continue its performancs until after the middle of August. The program this year is to include two performances of "The Nieblung Ring," seven performances of "Parsifal," and five of "Die Meistersinger." At the end of the week Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands and her consort will pay a visit to the Belgian king and queen at Brussels. The visit is certain to attract the attention of the chancellories of Europe from the fact that for some time past a movement has been on foot to establish a defensive alliance between the Netherlands and Belgium. The aggressive policy of Germany, silently but steadily pursued, has brought about this desire for a closer union between the two countries. Admiral Togo, the foremost naval hero of Japan, is scheduled to sail from Liverpool Saturday for NewYork and will arrive in the latter city August 4. He will visit Washington, Philadelphia. Nnagara Falls, and several of the large cities of the West, sailing from Vancouver about August 20.

HIS GIRLFRIENDS. Mark Twain Dearly Loved Children as Playmates.

THE ANGEL FISH SOCIETY.

A Delightful and Touching Story About Little Margaret, One of Its Members, and the Genial Humorist A Pretty Compact and a Quaint Letter. Like many another great man, Mark Twain was fond of children. He never outgrew childhood, and he always chose young playmates where they were to be found. lie formed curious societies of these girl friends. Back in the nineties, when he was living in Europe, he created a club which was to consist of one (only one) girl in each country of the globe, the duty of said member being to write occasionally to the chief officer, who faithfully replied to these random and far faring messages. Of course these little girls were 6wept Into womanhood presently, but even to the last years of his life the member who signed herself "France" remained faithful to the law. Another club of girls, little girls, became one of the chief interests during his final years. It had its beginning in Bermuda during one of his frequent visits to those happy islands. It was called the Angel Fish club, after a

gorgeous swimmer of those waters, and he gave to each member an angel fish pin as a society badge. It was a successful club, and on his return to America he elected other members, enough to make twelve in all. His home at Redding, Conn., Stormfield, had been originally named Innocence at Ilome, and as Angel Fish headquarters Innocence at Home it always remained. Members with their parents visited him there, and the billiard room, where the "fishes" were likely to 6pend most of their time knocking the balls about, under the chief member's instruction, was called the Aquarium, and gay prints of many Bermuda fishes were hung along the walls to carry out the idea. Each member had the privilege of selecting one of these as her patron fish and of identifying it with her name. It was in Bermuda one day when he was walking along the beach with one of his angei fish members that he picked up a small iridescent double shell, delicately hlced together.. He eca-

rated it 4.uiiai j uis ct-cAriHoik'Taaii. "You will be going away from me pretty soon. Margaret." he said, "and growing up. and I won't know you any more. I shall see a great many Margarets, and now aad then one of them will say she is my Margaret, but I will say. "No; you resemble my Margaret, but you are bigger than my Margaret, and 1 can't be sure." Then I will take out this shell and I will say, 'If you are really my Margaret you wl'l have the other half of this shell, and it will fit exactly.' Then if she has the she's! and it fits I shall know that St is really my Margaret, no matter how many years have gone by or how much older she has grown." All this he said very gravely and earnestly, and the little g'.rl took the shell thoughtfully and promised to keep it always. Next morning when she came running up to meet him on the hotel veranda he looked at her queftioningly. "You look like Margaret." he said, "but I can't be sure. If you are really my Margaret you will have a shell 1 gave her once the mate to this one" He got no further. The talisman was promptly produced, and it fitted exactly. He returned to America, and somewhat later Margaret received a letter one of the pretty letters he was always writing to children. In It he said: I am always maklna; mistakes. When I was In New Tork six weeks a;o I was on a corner of Fifth avenue and saw a small frlrl not a big one start across from the opposite corner, and I exclaimed to myself Joyfully. "That Is certainly my Marajaret." so I rushed to meet her. But as she came nearer I besran to doubt and said to myself. "Ifa a Margaret, that Is plain enough, but I'm half afraid it Is somebody else's." So when I passed her I held my shell so she couldn't help but see it. Dear, she only grlanced at It and passed on. 1 wondered If she could have overlooked it. It seemed best to find out, so 1 turned and followed and caught up with her and said deferentially. "Dear miss, I already know your first name by the look of you, but would you mind telling me your other one?" She waa vexed and said, pretty sharply: "It's Douglas, If you're so anxious to know. I

know your name by your looks, and I'd advise you to shut yourself up with pen and Ink and write some more rubbish. I am surprised that they allow you to run at lan?e. You are likely to get run over by a baby carriage any time. Run along now and don't let the cows bite you." What an idea: There aren't any cows on Fifth avenue. Cut I didn't smile. I didn't let on to perceive how uncultured she was. She was from the country, of course, and didn't know what a comical blunder she was making. Margaret, with her mother, called when they returned to America. When the cards were brought to him he looked at hers and said: ..'.Well, the .von!!!.- IrO.s. her name

seems familiar, but 1 can't be sure It's my Margaret without a certain token which she is supposed to carry as a proof." The shell came up without delay. He took the two halves now to a jeweler and had them set in gold as charms. One of these Margaret wore on a ribbon about her neck, and the other be linked to his watch chain, where it remained till he died. What a sweet fancy it all was! He spent the last months of his life In Bermuda In the home of one of his angel fish. Helen Alien, daughter of the American vice consul there. She was his daily companion, and it will be her lifelong happy memory that she brightened and comforted his final

days. Albert BigeSow Paine In Ladies' j

(National Newt Association) Salt Lake, Utah. July 22. The great Spanish Festival, which began today at Saltair, a resort on the Great Salt Lake, has attracted thousands of visitors from all parts of the West and Southwest. The principal day will be Monday, when the anniversary of the entrance of the pioneers in Salt Lake Valley will be celebrated. The most powerful magnet for attracting visitors seems to be the expectation that real bullfights will be given in the

specially erected arena at Saltair. Some of the most famous matadors and toreadors from Mexico have been brought here and also a number of ' bulls of the special breed employed in the Spanish and Mexican bull-fights. It is quite probable, however, that the church people of this city will take prompt steps to put a stop to any bull fights that may be attempted to be given.
