Ilara Ward Tells a Story
Whose Moral is Obvious;
Seeking Interviews
Serlpps-McRao ProsB Ass'n.
London May 10. Clura Ward ia the
dauphtor of a Detroit (Mich.) mill-
ionaire who In the heyday of her
beauty might have aspired to the
proud position of the front row in the
choruB but who throw away her
birthright to become the wife of a
mcr' Belgian prince Chlmay by
name Since then she has been try-
ing to moup her fallen fortunea by
way of an entaglement with a gypsy
mus Irian whoso chief virtue appeara
to have been his masculinity. Now
b)r' has disclosed the dark secret of
her fall.
The moral Is obvious. It should be
treasured up In the souls of the

Her Dreadful Secret.
Mme. RIgo has whisporal at last
the dreadful secrot. It was because
she permitted King Leopold of Bel-
glum to smile upon her varied charms
that she straightway lost caste with
his loyal but knowing subjects. Had
she been content with the favor of
mere counts nr.d oarls and barons
and possibly of princes she might
still be at the ho ad of her little court
the Princess Chlmay. But a king!
That was too deep a descent Into the
facilia pool. Too late she realized
the depth to which she had. descend-
led and. repentant strove to mount
at least one stop hlghor by running
off with a wandering minstrel of a
prehistoric race.
After this sad confosalon who will
withhold from the unfortunate ex-
patriated woman somo little meed of
sympathy' Poor Innocent unsus-
pecting tender hearted little woman!
iBIIgbted by tho favor of a king! And
all this timo a hard censorious world
lias been accusing her of caprice and
yet shfr held her peace and offered no
word in extenuation.

A Family Melee That Originated Over
a Willful Marriage.
W. H. Rlckstrew and A. B. Biggs
two old farmers of Bear Creek town-
ship who are well thought of by their
neighbors and each of whom have nice
farms are having a real warm time
fighting and fussing over dinky mat-
ters Involving the marriage of Biggs'
son to Rickstrews' daughter.
These two men are as near alike
in personal appearance as can be but
Uielr Individual sentiments and char-
acteristics aro widely different The
particulars of their troubles seem to
be oh follows:
Somo months ago young Blgga mar-
ried Rlokstrew's daughter. To pre-
vent them marrying Rlckstrow chain-
ed the fair dimsol to a bod post de-
claring sho should never marry that
fellow. Whoro thero Ib a well love
generally finds the way so in somo
miraculous mannor the poor girl
broke hor chains and scootod away
with the man of her heart. Thoy
wore subsequently married. It nl
most broke Papa Rlckstrew's heart.
Papa Biggs It Is said talked too much
and on last Saturday both met each
other faco to face on the sidewalk In
front of the Bank of Indian Territory.
They scrappod a few rounds and
wound up in the police court.
Mr. Rlckstrew In Striking Mr.
Biggs on tuohesd broke his right
hand fracturing nearly all the hones
In It. He paid his fine but Mr. Biggs
took a continuance and stood trial.
In the testimony last Monday
morning regarding the trouble some
things were said which Mr. Rick-
Strew takes exception to and yester-
day he came to town and swore out a
warrant for C. R. Biggs charging
perjury.
The case will be heard this week in

Scrlpps-McRae Press Ass'n.
San Francisco Cal Atay 1C
The condition of Mrs. McKlnley Ib
critical this morning. Tho gravust
uoubts are entertained of her iveov-
ery. The presidents- wishes are that
all functions as far as he is con-
cerned be cancelled. The people of
San Francisco and other clUes where
the presidential pariy was to visit
express deepest symuaUiy and are
willing to forego everything for tLo
sake of the chief executive's atrlckou
helpmate.
Secretary Cortelyou admitted this
morning that the chances for Mrs.
McKlnley's recovery were very slim.
at nine o'clock he gave out the fol-
lowing: "The physicians report Mrs. Mc-
Klnley's condition not so favornblo
vols morning. She having had a sink-
ing spell at five o'clock"
This bullaUn meant that M. Mc-
Klnley was at death's door for DrB.
Rlxey Hlrschfeldor and Gibbons were
immediately called together. Thoy
did everything to revive the spark o
life so fostly waning. Despite their
heroic efforts the gontle patient con-
tinued sinking.
Membera of the cabinet remained
remained in their rooms at tho Palace
hotel awaiting the news they feel In-
evitable. Tho president was Informed that
unless a miracle intervened it waa
only a question of but a few hours.
All events scheduled for today were
abandoned. The president may at-
tend Uie Ohio society banquet tonight.
Friday's programme calls for tho
president to receive the school child-
ren at Golden Gate park.
If the president attends the launch-
ing of the Ohio Saturday a special
wire will connect the Iron works
with the Scott residence.
Mrs. McKlnley awakened at sevon
o'clock this morning and Is reported
no worse Tho story that nltro-gly-cerine
Is used to prolong her life ia

you issued this bulleUtu "Condition

Large silent crowds surround-. the
residence. Hundreds of m4asages are
pouring In from United States repre-
sentatives and neajrty all foreign cap-
itals have been heard from. The
president is hearing up well.
N'w York May 10 Tho Evening
J'.irnal and the World are out with
big displays announcing Mrs. Mc-
Klnley dying.
Washington D. C May 16. The
news of the break down of Mrs. Mc-
Klnley Is no surprise here. While
President McKlnley was governor of
Ohio sh was subject to fainting
spells and since she became first
lady of the land her health has In no
wise improved. She did not seem to
realize how delicate she was and
vigorously oppeced the suggestion of
President McKlnley of publicly de-
claring her an invalid In order to
spare her of the trying social duties.
At the hut inaugural 4ay her will
power pro-d stronnr than her
physique. She wax tarried half un-
conscious from the president's stand.
It was hoped the continental trip
would benefit her.
