WOOLWINE PROBES "DOPE GANG" STORY LOS ANGELES, Feb. 24. — While a decision test was being given the "Confession" of Harry Fields, who is in jail at Detroit and who says a Chinese named Wong Lee was the layer, District Attorney Woolwine today began an investigation of the story that Taylor fought, a "dope" gang to have a woman he is said to have loved, a struggle which, according to the latest theory in the case, resulted in the murder. Woolwine ordered the investigation on the strength of the announcement by Assistant United States District Attorney Tom Green that Taylor had appealed for and obtained the aid of federal officers in his fight on the narcotic ring. Detectives King and Winn visited Green at his office, at Woolwine's order, and obtained from him the complete details of how Taylor worked with federal officers to rescue the woman from the "dope" peddlers. King and Winn were then immediately detailed to make a full investigation of Taylor's war with the dope gang for the purpose of substantiating the new theory of the murder. L. D. Seat, a teller at the bank, told officers that he changed a $1000 bill for a man who acted suspiciously on the morning of Feb. 2. Seat's statement tended to confirm Field's story that he had the bill changed at a night and day bank soon after the murder. FOOD FOR RUCK COMPLETES NEW YORK, Feb. 6.

L. George, the famous brilliant, plain-spiney emotions and femininity the whole world to talk about what can a woman fuses to die and a divorce And if she falls in love what then? The story opens at the country house of Mrs. Headcorn, where guests are Claire Caldecot and Rodbourne, a brilliant young member of Parliament, and Patricia Neale, a lovely girl of twenty. Mrs. Caldecot is thirty-eight and is struggling valiantly against the advance of age and wrinkles. Even the servants know of her affair with Rodbourne, and Mrs. Booker, who has been in the service for thirty-five years, scandalizes Hilda, the maid, by discussing unblushingly the relations between the two house guests. Hilda stared at Booker for a moment, understanding only by degrees that there was something to understand. Then at last she re-be fit for service except in the suburbs. She's a fine woman, Mrs. Caldecot. Getting a bit long in the tooth perhaps but still there's many good tune played on an old fiddle they say. I say Mr. Rodbourne's too young for her." "Do you mean they're going to get married?" said Hilda. "Not likely. In fashionable society marriage is what they call a peas-alley. Beside, she's married. It doesn't worry her, her husband being on long leave, in a manner of speaking. But, of course, she feels dull. So did Mr. Rodbourne feel dull tiffi she came along." "But how did you find out, Mrs. Booker?" lovely girl of twenty. Mrs. Caldecot is thirty-eight and is struggling valiantly against the advance of age and wrinkles. Even the servants know of her affair with Rodbourne, and Mrs. Booker, who has been in the service for thirty-five years, scandalizes Hilda, the maid, by discussing unblushingly the relations between the two house guests. Hilda stared at Booker for a moment, understanding only by degrees that there was something to understand. Then at last she remarked: "I don't see what you mean, Mrs. Booker." "No, you don't seem to have kept your eyes open though you look as though you did. What's Mr. Rodbourne doing here?" "Visiting." "Ar! Who's be visiting? Who's the lady?" "You don't mean that the misala—gasped Hilda." "You make me tired," replied Booker. "What's that Mrs. Caldecot doing here? Visiting?" "I suppose she is," said Hilda, bewildered. "We'll, here you are," said Booker, conclusively. "You'll never they say, I say Mr. Rodbourne's too young for her." "Do you mean they're going to get married?" said Hilda. "Not likely. In fashionable society marriage is what they call a peas-alley. Beside, she's married. It doesn't worry her, her husband being on long leave, in a manner of speaking. But, of course, she feels dull. So did Mr. Rodbourne feel dull till she came along." "But how did you find out, Mrs. Booker?" "Find out?" said Booker, contemptuously. "Of course, I didn't find out. In fashionable society nothing's found out; it's only known. But when a lady and a gentleman have just been staying with some friends in the Isle of Wight, and they're both staying here with Mrs. Headcorn, and Mrs. Frederick heard them say at dinner that they'd be meeting again next week at a third place—well, you put two and two together. In fashionable society, when you put two and two together it makes one. Don't you take on Hilda; they're only human.

"Do you think that Mrs. Caldecot is going to be divorced?" said Hilda. "She get a divorce!" said Booker, scornfully. "The boot would be on the other leg, though I expect Mr. Caldecot's been busy, too, all the years he's been away. Besides, it wouldn't be any good her getting a divorce. It's too late." "What's too late, Mrs. Booker?" "She couldn't get Mr. Rodbourne if she was divorced ten times over. Not now. Haven't you seen him with Miss Neale? He's sweet on her. Of course, he doesn't know it yet; men never do until it's too late, though assured, kiss her almost conjugally, sit down, tell her the contents of some of his letters and the morning newspaper. He would sit there and enjoy the appreciation in her eyes, in those eyes which so punctually, and almost truthfully, said: 'Bob how clever you are!'" Why didn't he come? Didn't he want to? Absurd! If he didn't want to he'd have come all the more, because he'd think he ought to, men being so beautiful conventional. "Perhaps," thought Mrs. Caldecot, as she tortured a stiff pleat on her skirt. "perhaps the servants were about." But why didn't he at least tap?

Besides, it wouldn't be any good her getting a divorce. It's too late." "What's too late, Mrs. Booker?" "She couldn't get Mr. Rodbourne if she was divorced ten times over. Not now. Haven't you seen him with Miss Neale? He's sweet on her. Of course, he doesn't know it yet; men never do until it's too late. But he is. Mr. Frederick says you only have to notice the way he asks her to have some salted almonds." "Lor!!" said Hilida. "What will Mrs. Caldecot say when she finds out?" Hilida's alarm was quite unnecessary, as Claire Caldecot had already discovered that Bob had become ensnared by the youngest girl. There had been many secret meetings between Claire and Bob. The author explains: "She loved those secret meetings in the early morning, when she had had breakfast, had done her hair and powdered, and for a while was placid and idle. Then Bob would come in, rather cautious, in her eyes, in those eyes which so punctually, and almost truthfully, said; 'Bob how clever you are!' Why didn't he come? Didn't he want to? Absurd! If he didn't want to he'd have come all the more, because he'd think he ought to men being so beautiful conventional. Perhaps," thought Mrs. Caldecot, as she tortured a stiff pleat on her skirt. "perhaps the servants were about." But why didn't he at least tap? The fear that she had lost Bob swept over Mrs. Caldecot and when she met her hostess, Mrs. Headcorn, in the living room of the house, an hour later, she was so wrought up that she found it impossible to longer keep her love a secret and was surprised to discover that Mrs. Headcorn had long known of its existence. The two women discuss at length the possibility of the death of Mrs. Caldecot's husband, Geoffrey, and Mrs. Caldecot finally admitted that she knew him to be still alive and in America. She said her love for Bob was useless, as Geoffrey was healthy and had displayed no inclination to die and only death could set her free. this gripping romance will appear in RY'S EXAMINER for your copy in advance Local Agent.
