And yet, although Miss lie Schon is a child of the wigwam, the white man's ways are not strange to her. She has mastered the white man's language and with this mastery has come the knowledge of his book-lore. Miss De Schon.

Horn in Cuba, she lived her early days in that land of sunshine and then, at the age of six years, she went to Texas where she learned the Knglish language and received her education.

I The happiest period of her life was when she roamed the vast stretches of country which an innate longing seemed to tell her was her rightful home. Then it was. among the beings that know no permanent home, 1 that her voice acquired that plaintive, wild and appealing note which is the secret of its present charm.

This last week saw her at the air domes' belonging to Heib Kiely, where she caused tbe dormant spark of wildness in the natures of her listeners to break into a flame. Sunday morning she deparls for Alton for a brief stay, and then she will leave for the Fast, where she already has many engagements. Behind her she leaves a sweet mem- ory and those that were fortunate enough to hear her have a feeling that something has called to them from Nature 'and opened to them a ista of appreciation which time cannot take away.

The detective bureau and the entire police department went right to the bottom of this case and we discovered no evidence of murder. "The Coroner made an nariiy close inquiry and discovered no evidence of murder. We su-bmH- ttd the evidence to the Circuit Attor- nty and he aiso found nothing to i iustify the murder theory.

I repeat, charity prevents our making a bald statement." INSISTS MISTAKE WAS MADE. Young's statement was made! in response to the reiterated claim of Max Judell. made at Charleston. The Coroner's verdict of i vhich was finally reached after the; I self-confessed escort of Mrs. Judell! on the night of her death in the Ven-J dome Hotel, had taken the stand' and testified as to the circumstances i of the tragedy.

This statement was; received with anger by the who is on his ay to St. lxuis to again confer With the police. "1 take no stock in the Poulos he said, when informed of the eruiet of the coroner's jury. "My wife was murdered: of this I am convinced. I am not ready to! say anything about prosecution, be cause I don't know anything on which i 1 could base action.

The Ponlos story is absurd." Peter K. Poulous. the Greek waiter 1 at the Buckingham Hotel, who ad-j mitted to the police that he was the man who accompanied Mrs. Judell to the Vendome Hotel, at Fifteenth and Olive streets, the night of July 31, was released following the verdict of the coroner's jury and as he left the room a hundred Greeks, who had gathered there showered congratula-j tions upon him on his exoneration I at the hands of the coroner. Prior to the reading of the verdict, Poulos looked anxious, but when he heard the verdict read his face re- lapsed into a look of relief and he smiled broadly.

WAUUANT IS IlKJbTsEr. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Davis refused to issue warrant to 1 hold Poulos as he is of the opinion that the story told by Poulos is true, Poulos gave a detailed account of his meeting with Mrs. Judell on the night of her death, and persistent questioning by Chief of Detectives I Allender failed to change the story one iota. However, even his story left many particulars of the strange death unexplained, but the "police are of the opinion that the story in the main was correct. Mrs.

Judell's body was found at 4 o'clock on tthe morning of August. 1 in an alley in the rear of the Vendome Hotel, and four hours later she died at the City Hospital without recovering consciousness. At first the police worked on the theory that it was a case of murder but later abandoned this for the suicide hypothesis, which was corroborated by Poulos. who said that he was awakened by a slight noise and saw Mrs. Judell sitting on the window sill and the next saw her fall.

Frightened, he fled and endeavored to remain unknown in connec tion with the story until several suspects had been arrested, and then he came forward and admitted that he was the escort. The police intend to conduct a crusade against hotels such as the Vendome Hotel, whhich are known to be conducted for immoral pur- poses.

The Admiral made no formal reply. but expressed his profound thanks.
