Romance of Tommy Cruse, Old
Gold Miner of Montana,
- ' Is Recalled,
HELENA LOSES CITIZEN
Fickleness of Luck Told in Tale of
Discoverer of, Drom Lummon
Mine, at " Om Time Richest
Gold Miine jn World.
HELENA, Jan. 18. The story of the
bunt for gold la' ever 'a story of toil
and privation, after' a tsagdy for the
one who strikes it rich, thousands are
lost in the oblivion tof poverty. -
CoL Thomas Cruse, .who died here at
79, was one 'of the lucky few who
leaped from poverty J to affluence 30
years ago. He discovered the Drum
Lummoa cold mine, north of Helena,
sold it to an English syndicate for
11,504.000, retaining- one-sixth interest,
and shared in the profits of 30,000,
00 which the mine has produced.
Mr. Cruse was 20 years old when he
left County Cavan, Ireland, to seek his
fortune in the mining camps of the
West. He roamed around various dig
gings in California. Nevada and Idaho,
blew into Virginia City, Mont, in 1865,
when Aider Gulch was at tle height
of its glory, and later struck the
placers around Helena, where fortune
smiled upon him.
Fickleness of Luck Retold.
Drum Lummon drew Its name from
the locality in Ireland where Cruse was
born. Before It had a name it had a
romance redolent with the Ill-luck of
the original finder. He was a little
wiry Frenchman named I F. Hilder
brand, who drove an express wagon to
Deadwood long after Tommy Cruse put
Drum Lummon on the mining map. In
the very early days Hildebrand pros
pected in Montana. X stumble on the
mountain- side caused him to chip- off
a piece of boulder which was so rich
in gold quartz that his eyes popped in
the excitement of riches in sight. He
and his partner began to look for the
lead from which the boulder sloughed
off. - -
Unfortunately, Hildebrand and his
partner" undertook to roll out of the
way the great boulder which gave
them a clew to wealth. By one of
those queer capers of blasted luck
which prospectors fear, the boulder
moved too quickly and rolled over and
crushed the arm of Hildebrand's part
ner. Being .without money and need
ing medical attention they left the
place and trudged to Helena, where the
a-artner was under the care of a doctor,
and Hildebrand went to work in near
bv places to earn money to pay the
bill.
Some 10 years later Hildebrand. still
at outs with his luck, and weary of
roaming, reached the spot where the
boulder sent his hopes skyward. The
boulder had the appearance of an old
acquaintance, but the surroundings
were changed to a bewildering extent.
Before his eyes Was 'a monster hoist
ing plant raising rich ore from a shaft
hundreds of feet In depth, while in the
gulch a huge stamp mill was at work.
The boulder occupied a place of
honor in front , of a building. Hilde
brand touched it. patted it affection
atcly and tears filled his eyes. Pres
ently through the mist of his tears he
read the sign, "Drum Lummon mine,
discovered by Thomas Cruse."

NEWS NOV LACKING
WEDDING IS RUSH AFFAIR
Decorators Still R,nsy When Guests
Arrive for CIews-"GoeIet Xuptials.
NEW YORKr Jan. IS. It was after a
day spent In hasty preparation, amount
ing almost to wild r confusion, that
Henry Clews, Jr., ana Mrs. Elsie
Whelen Goelet were married one day
last month at the home of, Mrs. Goelet
8 Washington Square North. So much
had to be done In the time available
that the arrangements had hardly been
completed before - the wedding had
taken place. In fact, it might be said
to have "occurred. '
The ceremony had been scheduled for
2 o clock, but Mrs. Goelet. who had been
out all morning arranging business af
fairs, did not arrive at her home until
after that hour. The work of decorat
ing the rooms for the occasion was still
under way when the first guests ar
rived, and was not completed until 4
o'clock. - .-
The Rev. Dr. W. A. Fatton, of Wayne,
Pa, officiated, and there were present
only the members of the families of the
bride and bridegroom. The guests
were: Mrs. C. Hartman Knnn, oi
Philadelphia, mother of the bride; Mr.
Kuhn. Mr. and Mrs. William B. Whelen,
brother and sister-in-law of Mrs.
Goelet; Mr. and Mrs. Henry Clews, Sr.,
Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Parsons, brother-
n-law and sister of the bridegroom.
and Mrs. Goelet's two sons, Ogden and
Peter.
The ceremony was performed in the
music room of Mrs. Goelet's home. A
temporary altar had been placed in the
northwest corner of the room, and both
the music and dining-rooms were dec
orated elaborately with banked palms
and ferns, calla lilies, lilles-of-the-val
ley and chrysanthemums.
Profound secrecy attended the ar
rangements for the marriage, and the
first inkling of it came yesterday when
Mr. Clews and Mrs. Goelet applied for
marriage license. Mr. Clews gave his
age at 38 and his occupation as an art
ist. Mrs. Goelet said she was 3 years
old.
Art and divorce stand out prominent
ly in the recent history of both bride
and bridegroom. As an artist ana
writer Mr. Clews attracted considerable
attention in Paris. His wife, who was
Miss Louise Hollingsworth, of Balti
more, had previously been married to
Frederic Gebhard, from whom she ob
tained a divorce, Ootober 26, 1901.
She sued Mr. Clews in the French
courts in 1910 and was granted a dt
vorce on grounds of extreme indiffer
ence and cruelty to her and Indiffer
ence' to their two children. Since then
Mr. Clews has spent most of his time
at his studio, at 145 East Nineteenth
street, next to that occupied by Robert
Chandler, one of his close friends. Mrs,
Clews now lives in Paris and has not
married.
Mrs. Goelet secured a divorce from
Robert Goelet in the Rhode Island
courts, and the final decree was grant
ed October 5 of this year. She charged
her husband with extreme cruelty and
was given custody of the two children
and $40,000 annually for her support
and theirs. Her marriage to Mr. Clews,
under the terms of the divorce, reduces
this allowance to $20,000.
A wide difference in tastes was
brought out in the testimony in the
divorce action.' Mr. Goelet was fond
of outdoor sports, while his wife de
voted herself almost entirely to her
art. She was ah' .excellent caricatur
ist, and attained considerable skill as a
painter of marine pictures, under the
instruction of Mr. Clews, having studied
with him In his studio here.'
She ,was the first woman In New
York society to advocate the Greek form
of garb, and provided herself with a
number 'of Grecian costumes, which
were widely ' commented upon. Last
Winter she became interested in avia
tion while in Florida, and made several
flights with Miss Ruth Law, at Day-
tona.

MILAN, Jan. 26. The failure of the
French newspapers to print casualty
lists and the inadequate delivery of
mails from the front have aggravated
the anxiety of the French people con
cerning the war situation, according to
report from P. Crocl to the Cornere
della Sera.
Among the Milan papers the Cor
rire della Sera is probably the most
pro-French, and its Paris correspond
ent, P. Crocl,' the most enthusiastic
prophet of French victory. Therefore
M. Croci's adverse report is regarded
as significant and the mental irritation
of the French populace is ominous.
M. -Crocl writes:
No New From Trenches.
"During the first months of the war
the people accepted the blocking of
traffic and the endless delays as nec
essary evils. Today the mail and rail
way service has outwardly resumed its
normal condition, but it is actually in
adequate. The delivery of field mail,
which means so much, both to the sol
dier and to his family, is deplorably
unsatisfactory. Hardly a letter comes
from the front that does not complain
about the delay and Incompleteness of
messages from home. Some families
have adopted the method of putting
short announcements in the newspa
pers, hoping that the news in this way
may reach their relatives in the
trenches. Most families ' have been
wuuQut news irom ine irons xor sev
eral months.
'Even at this late date there are no
casualty lists in France. The only lists
printed In the papers have been
scraped together from death notices.
The press has vainly called attention
to the German and more recent Eng
lish casualty lists. It seems almost ah
if the government were afraid to pub
lish the lists. As a matter of fact, the
government could not compile correct
lists if It wanted to do so. The French
bureaucracy is too demoralized.
- Censorship Angers People.
"Maurice Barres, who has taken up
the matter, quotes a characteristic ex
ample. , A wounded , soldier was re
ceived at a hospital in Verdun Septem
ber 20. A week later he wrote home.
As there was no subsequent news, his
parents wrote to the head of the hos
pital. They received no reply. They
then tried to reach Verdun, and re
ceived from the Minister of War the
usual noncommittal answer that., no
fatal news had been received. Finally
the parents appealed to Barres. He told
them that their son had been dead for
two months."
It jta a matter of common knowledge
that the French newspapers frequently
appear with single sentences, para
graphs and even entire articles deleted
by the censor. In the rush of going
to press tnese frequently cannot be re
placed, and blank spaces confront the
reader. - -
"The dissatisfaction with the exag
gerated strictness of the censorship,
against which serious and sarcastic
protests have been raised," saids Crocl,
"casts a dark shadow in the shining
picture of French unity and harmony."
the animals of the Central Park me
nagerie is becoming such an every-day
occurrence that professional jealousy
is springing up all over the place, ac
cording to Head Keeper Bill Snyder.
Even Zip, the sloth bear, is affected.
Yesterday Zip put a policeman out of
commission for breaking up a plot to
kidnap him. Incidentally the police
man, Frederick Lohmeyer, one of the
veterans of the arsenal squad, saved a
10-year-old boy from Zip's sharp claws,
only to be gashed himself. , '
Zip shares a suite in the bear pit with
Tommy, the black bear, next door to
the polars, Alice and. Joe. There Is a
heavy iron rail four feet in front of
of the cage, and as lobg as you keep
that rail between you and Zip he is
as sluggish as a well-behaved sloth
bear should be. JfrobaDly that was
why the would-be. animal snatcher of
10 selected him as a fit subject for a
boy to tickle, the efforts of two full
grown men to carry off the baby hippo
and the prize tigress. Lady Alice, the
day before having come to nought.
The youngster had vaulted over the
rail and climbed up on the stone ledge
of Zip's home before Policeman Loh
meyer caught slight of him. There
were a few nursemaids nearby, and
they screamed. Lohmeyer reached the
cage in two bounds, cleared the railing
and dragged the boy do wn,' just as Zip
came jogging up- to see what was the
matter. All the elothfulness had gone
out of him. With a roar, "he raised his
ip-ht nanr- and.. 'before the Doliceman
could move, reaohed through the bars
and smote Lohmeyer on thes wrist- The
animal's claws dug in, but before he
could strike -again,.- Lohmeyer ..jumped .
out of the way. .-
Meanwhile the boy slid 'under thai
railing, and beat a retreat When Loh
meyer looked arouna lor nun ne was

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 14. Did Mrs. Ernes
tine Gerling, wife of Frederick C. Ger
ling, a grocer, leave her husband vol
untarily or was she and her 6-year-old
daughter, Laura, abducted from their
home December 2.7
Have the alleged abductors spirited
Mrs. Gerling from place to place in bt.
Louis and St. Louis County or has she
made the movements of her own accord,
and. incidentally, is Mrs. Gerling ca
pable of realizing her own actions or
s she of unsound mind i
These are some of the questions the
St. Louis Court of Appeals will have to
determine in passing upon a habeas
corpus suit filed by Gerling to regain
possession of his wife and daughter,
whom, he alleges, he- has seen only
twice in the last 38 days.
The suit reveals a tamiiy quarrel, in
which Gerling is arrayed against his
wife's two sisters. - The defendants
named are: Mrs. Frieda Albrecht, -one
of the sisters; her husband, Albert, a
grocer, of 3527 North 'twenty-secona
street: Miss Flora C. Wiese, a sister,
and George H. Wiese, : a brother, wiio
are living on a farm near Spanish
Lake, in St. Louis County.
Gerling alleges that the defendants
conspired to abduct his wife and child
after vainly working on her mind to in
duce her to leave him. The petition
charges that, after falling in this, the
defendants entered his home while he
was away last December 2 and forcibly
took with tbem Mrs. Gerling and her
daughter. Gerling alleges they con
cealed the two and moved them from
St. Louis to St. LouiB County and back
again to throw him off the track.
He states that he demanded that the
defendants surrender his daughter and
wife, but that they refused to do so.
He declares that the la3t jtime he saw
his wife, until she was brought into
court .was when she was ' riding- in a
"conveyance driven along a public road
in St. Louis County" by Flora C. Wiese.
To these charges the defendants filed
an answer in which they deny they
abducted Mrs. Gerling. They allege, on
the contrary, that she left Gerling. vol
untarily on the date mentioned in the
petition and took her daughter. The
petition states she sought shelter at
the home of the Albrechts,

Mrs. Gerling Is a daughter of William
Wiese, a St. Louis County resident, who
died July 11, 1911. Her share of Wlese's
estate, which was divided among six
legatees, the petition states, amounted
to $5000. George H. Wiese was named
administrator of the estate.
The petition states that in July, 1913.
while Mrs. Gerling was of unsound
mind, Wiese organized the Wiese In
vestment Company, of which the lega
tees of the Wiese estate were members.
The petition states that Wiese con

loan it to such "a shiftless fellow."
Years after, when Cruse's day of
prosperity came, one of the early visi
tors to the "Thomas Cruse Savings
Lank," Just started in Helena, was
Sam Ashby. -The fortunes of Cruse
and Ashby had been reversed. Cruse
was flush,. Ashby empty of pocket.
Cruse led his- would-be customer to
the door and in the underscored lan
Biiase of the West assured the cus
tomer that he would rather throw his
money Into the furnaces of his sa
tanlc majesty than to loan It to such
"a shiftless fellow" as Sam Ashby.
Soon after Ma bank was started, at
the age of 50. Cruse decided that he
had enough capital to support a wife.
Miss Margaret Carter, sister of the
late United States Senator Carter, be
came airs. Cruse. The wedding, in
1&N6, was the greatest social event in
the history of Montana's capital. It
was a celebration for all the popula
tion. Cruse arranged -for an open
house and free drinks with every
saloon in Helena. Tradition has it that
the whole male population of the town
got drupk at the bridegroom s expense,
and it took a week to sober the peo
ple into a working condition. The
jamboree .was the greatest ever pulled
off in the treasure state; no one has
attempted to rival the score.-
The Joys of wedded life werejof short
duration. Mrs. Cruse died within
year. leaving a baby daughter on
which the father lavished his affections
and means.
