Margaret and herseir out of the ex
clusive society of tha capital. Mra. Har
vey Calvin Uaae. who livea In a man
noa In tha aristocratic Dupont Circle,
has been arrested ao that her sanity
mar be Inquired Into.
The arrest waa mada at the Instiga
tion of Mrs. Bell, wife of tha banker,
who waa worried by the continued
threat of tha widow, who lives almost
next door to them. Mra. Oaae was ar-
. . 1 I. thM.I Mitnv to

sent to tha Government detention hos

charge.
Kariaatva aetety raid.
The Gases came to Washington from
New Jersey about etsjht years aao and
purchased the mansion on fashionable
Dupont Circle. Miss Margaret Gaga
was sent to tha most excluslva semi
nary In tha city and her mother mada
great preparations for her debut. Al
though Mrs. Gaga appeared In tha Win
ter colony of alien millionaires, tha
homea of tha real aristocrats of Wash
ington society wera not open to her,
and sha was sad.
Just before Miss Margaret Gage's
db'it. Mra Gage caused to ba com
piled a booklet purporting to give her
family tree. The book set forth that
she waa a descendant of varlooa Illus
trious English and Hpanlsh potentates
nd courtiers, and waa mailed, at Mrs.
;ages expense, to all society people
In Washington.
Mra Gage and her daughter were
seen at White House receptions and
other semi-public society functions, but
still the real exelualvea failed to call
apon her or Invite her and Miss Mar
garet to their homea
Banker Bell Biassed.
Mrs. Gaga blamed Mr. Bell for keep
ing her and her daughter out of society,
and her threats to kill Belt "and hang
for It.- If necessary, were repeated to
tlell ao frequently that his wife finally
Induced him to have tha widow ar
rested. Mrs. Gaga had previously con
ferred with the chief of police about
Bell and was advised to make no more
threat. Sha failed to follow this ad
vice, however.
Bell la at a loss to tell why Mra
liage picked lilm out as the cause of
ter troubles. He says ha never met
her and never had any dealings with
her.
Mrs. Gage Immediately appealed to
relatives In Newark for legal assist
ance. They are said to share the Bells
belief that Mrs. Gaga la Insane.

Dr. Mary Walker, who for almost half

a "lot of female nurses."
She was driven to the Gerard Hotel

league. Notwithstanding her removal,
she Is still In a critical condition and
physicians who attended her In the
bospltsl fear that pneumonia will de
velop any moment.
Dr. Mary's troublea in the hospital
bettn from the moment the nurses
sought to envelop her tiny frame In a
hospital night dress.
"Take it away." she cried, "and brine;
me a suit of pajamas. I wouldn't
wear that thing, hospital or no hos
pital." The hospital rules prescribe that
women patients shall be encased In
night dresses. There were no women's
pajamas In the establishment. The
house surgeons were called Into con
clave. They entered Dr. Mary's room
and argued with her to yield to the
hospital rules.
"Never." she cried: "1 wear nothing
but pajamas. Find me a suit of
pajamas or wrap me in a sheet. f
know what t want to wea'r and what I
Intend to wear." '
Another conference was held among
the nurses and doctors, and after a
terrlnc straining at red tape a way
was found to provide the. pstient with
pajamas. Immediately these enveloped
her emaciated form she felt better at
one and dropped off to sleep.
But when she awoke this morning
I"r. Mary would not alios; female

three different doctors, I was unable

notice a change for the better, and
after taking eight bottles of your med

had any trouble since.
