His affection for his wifeis still deep-rooted, as was shown by the way they embraced before she sailed. Like Ruskin, he is a martyr | to unselfish love. Jorn told the story of his wife’s visit and appeal to be released. “When my wife came over here last week,” he said, ‘‘she sent to.me a wireless dispatch from the steamer. Wrongly it was interpreted that she was coming to make scandal. What it really said was that she was com- ing to avoid a scandal. “Tmetherhereandshesaid: ‘‘Karl, long you have known that I have not loved you. And you have not loved me. Now, I come to tell you that I love another; and I ask you to set me free so that he and I may wed.’ “To that I agreed when she told me how much she loved this other) man, Iasked who he was. ‘A poor| physician, she told me, in Berlin. | And because he is poor and she has | no wealth nor income, save what I have given her, she asked that I pro- vide for her—that I give her enough to maintain them both until this physician should do better with his | profession, And so I did. I gave! her everything I had—save my voice | and my ability to work. Read the agreement and see.”’ ; This was a voluminous document, signed by Jorn and his wife in the presence of a Notary and the German Consul General. It made for the! wife these provisions: “Proceeds of phonograph royal- ties, about $5,000 a year; $15,000 in ‘cash to be paid at once; $10,000 in cash to be paid in a month; $1,000 a year to be paid to each of the young Jorn children; $5,000 life insurance to be kept in Frau Jorn’s name; jewels worth $10,000; house in Ber- lin, worth $10,000; no obstacle to be placed in the way of Frau Jorn’s divorce; custody of the two boys and girl; all of the singer’s friendship and good wishes.” | Saved From Awful Peril. “7 never felt so near my grave,” writes Lewis Chamblin, of Manches- ter, Ohio, R.
