Theft of Her Reward.
LOS ANGELES, Cal.. July 9- (Spe
cial.) Having previously Intimated
that In his book relating hia extensive
matrimonial experiences he would de
vote considerable space to Maxlne
Elliott, wife No. 3, Nat C. Goodwin, the
comedian, has given a portion of it to
a waiting world.
As he said he would when lie first
announced he was deep In literary
labors setting forth the fads and foibles
of his ex-wlves. Mr. Goodwin describes
Maxlne Elliott's ambition as that of a
Cleopatra; her demeanor Nero-llke and
her dignity that of Joan of Arc and
charges that the beautiful actress used
him as a ladder with which to reach
fame. '
"She found her crowning glory In
the blinding glare of & myriad of in
candescent lights that spelled her name
over the portals of a New Tork thea
ter," Goodwin writes.
Neat Tribute PuUl. '
After attributing the dominant qual
ities of Cleopatra, Nero and Joan ot
Are to "wife No. 3." Mr. Goodwin
writes: "She was one of the cleverest
women I ever met" and that despite
her ambitions and her- dignity, she
was imbued "with channels of emotion
that manifested womanhood in the
truest sense of the word."
Part of Goodwin's memoirs relating
to Miss Elliott follow:
"During the early days at Jackwood,
my English home,, when I was busily
engaged In hiring ' guests to come and
partake of my board- and rooms (I
mean the professional diners out), I
found great difficulty in hiring pat
rons. 1 had plenty at my command
so far as processional friends and vis
iting Americans wore concerned, but
the fair Maxlne had the English bee
In her American bonnet and Insisted
that we must try and get tonether some
of the impecunious nobility and a few
army men as guests.
"Sapliead" Is Persuaded.
"I knew of no one who repiesented
those particular branches of society
and had no desire to, but, being tinder
her hypnotic influence. I sought a
woman, the wife of a friend of mine, an
American rqjnlng man. Who, I discov
ered, knew all the swagger members
of the guards one particular one
and through her Influence one of these
'sapheads' was persuaded to visit our
humble home from Saturday to Mon
day. He came, accompanied by one of
the present dukes of "England (whose
father, by the way. died owing me a
paltry S2000 borrowed on the race
course at Deauvllle. France).
"They all came down this particular
Saturday in conjunction with Mm.
Melba. Haddon Chambers, . the then
'Pooh-Bah of the house on the Thames.'
We had a lovely time (that Is, I presume
they did), as Maxlne insisted on my en
tertaining the guests between courses
with supposedly funny stories. Gener
ally, after the telling of each one, which
occupied some little time, my portion of
the feast was either cold or confiscated
by the butler. Little attention was paid
to me anyway, except when I was recit
ing anecdotes, and on the first of every
month when the bills came due.
Butler Is Companion.
"However, finally, this particular even
ing, the guests sauntered into the draw
ing room, expecting to hear Mclba sing.
She didn't even talk, and the party. In
groups or twos, sauntered through the
house and Inspected the grounds. I. be
ing on particularly good terms with the
butler, selected him for jny companion,
and we quietly strolled through , the
upper rose terrace, discussing the mend
that would, appeal to the next Influx of
England's dilettante (by this time all
the American friends were barred, as
Maxlne considered them extremely com
mon). "The butler and I were figuring out
the expense of the past month, as the
pale moon cast its rays over my book
of memoranda, when we stopped before
an open window of the drawing room
to figure. We quite casually heard tha
remark:
" "How could you possibly have mar
ried such a vulgar little person?"
Goodwin Is Self-Consclous.
'I being terribly self-conscious at all
kthls. said to my butler: 'Luis, that's me
that chocolate soldier is rererrmg to;
listen and we'll have a warrior's opinion
o'f a thespian.' I heard the following
dialogue:
" "She: . "Do you think him vulgar?"
'"He: "Not necessarily vulgar, but an
awful accent."
" "She: "Well, no one ever accused
him of an American accent. He was
educated in Boston. Don't you think
him rather amusing?"
"' 'He: "Tn what way"
" 'She: "By way of anecdotes and
funny stories?"
" "He: -"Were those stories he told
at dinner supposed to be funny?"
" 'She: "Of course; didn't you hear the
guests laugh T'
" 'He: "Yes, so I did. but simply in a
spirit of compliment. Is u supposed to
be a comic man in your country?';.
'Sha: "Extremely so."
My Lord Is Rebuked.
" 'He: "Well, maybe, but I was deaf
ened by your beauty. I saw nothing but
those beauteous eyes of yours.' my dear
Mrs. Goodwin, and everything else was a
blank. Really. I"
" 'Sha: "Now, don't pay me silly com
pliments. Lord A.; It isn't nice."
" 'He: "I beg your pardon, but please
tell me how did you happen to marry
that funny little man?"
"'She: "Now. don't ak Impertinent
questions: one has to get married; and.
really, when he talks he says some
thing." " 'He: "Does he. really?
"Tha butler and I quietly resumed our
stroll. Some time after I. met this gren
adier. I talked and said something.
"My publisher refuses to print it.
"Jackwood proved a lovely Summer
abode for me. It cost me ii-i.OOO to get

there about 10 weeks every season, and
it cost me $25,000 to get' rid of It. The

rules, declaring that checks would not
be accepted. The Richards manager
cashed 'the check. By the time the
money was returned It was declared
time for the polls to close. The Gage
money, however, was received amid
protests of Miss Lee and her friends.

Laboring Men to Study Boot.
'The Bible is the guidebook for all
labor unions," said Rev. Joseph L. Gar
Sale of Reliable
Undermuslins at
vin, of Seattle, addressing a congrega
tion of nearly 300 worklngmen in the
Baker Theater yesterday morning on
"How the Gospel of Christ Fits the
Laboring Man.." "If it were followed
exactly, the problems that confront the
laboring man and the problems that
confront the capitalist would solve
themselves."
Rev. Mr. Garvin appealed to the
laboring men of Portland to use their
efforts for furthering a study of the
Scriptures. "Since the Bible Is the key
to right living," he said, "and unless
a worklngman has the right sort of
moral character, all his skill will
eventually come to nothing. Get some
one from your own number to teach
you; send him to school to be trained
as a minister and let him return and
preach to the men who sent him and
fitted him for the work. If the black
smiths of Portland would employ one
of their men to teach them the Bible
and would pay him blacksmith's wages
It would prove the best investment
that they could make."
Mr. Garvin was assisted by Mrs.
Charles Scoville, of Chicago; Miss
Mary Lingenfelter, of Seattle, and C.

LOS ANGELES, July 9. John McNa

enter pleas late tomorrow to the
charge of dynamiting the Times build
ing on the morning of October 1 lart.
if the motions for the quashing of the
indictments against the prisoners are
overruled by Judge Bordwell.
Assistant District Attorney Ford will
conclude his argument within an 'hour
after the court session opens at 2
o'clock. No reply Is expected from the
counsel for the defense, as their main
objection to the Indictments the fact
that the names of three testifying wit
nesses were omitted from the grand
Jury indictments has been withdrawn.
Judge Bordwell's decision whether
the allegations made are sufficient to
quash the indictments will probably be
given tomorrow. An adverse decision
on the motion of the defense will force
Attorney Darrow and his associates to
enter the plea of not guilty or to file
demurrers, and It is believed the trial
date will be set.

with conspiring to dynamite the Hall

Represcnlatlves of World's Oldest
Lodge Bring Historic Seal.
NEW YORK, July 9. Three represen
tatives of St. Johns Lodge of Glasgow.
Scotland, the oldest Masonic lodge in the
world, arrived today. The worshipful
master, James Strang, a past master;
Andrew Brown, and the junior warden,
John W. Dempster, compose the party.
Mr. Brown brought with him the badge
of his office, an exquisite gold chain.

and stars is the official seal of the lodge,
the gift of Malcolm Canmore, King of
the Scots, In the year 1067. The chain is
insured for J2500. tyit its sentimental
value is far above that price.

BIFOCALS
These bifocals nide by fusing
two pieces of glass of different
indices of. refraction together by
electric " heat so as to look like
and to all practical . purposes
actually be one solid piece of
glass are the most perfect lenses
ever made.
All the old objections to bi
focals, including the most serious
of all the feeling that the wear
ing of bifocals was a confession
of age are done away with be
cause it cannot be seen that
these lenses are bifocals except
by .most minute examination.
Kryptok bifocals of Thomp
son grinding are better because
we put into them that little in
definable something in the way
of finish and perfection which
makes Thompson's work known
as the best the world over.
