Tho district attorney pointed ~ out that-the-girl by saying she was 16, when, as a matter of fact, she was 21, had brought trouble upon her- self. Browning, believing her 16, adopted her under a statute differ- ent from that proyided for cases where the person adopted is over 21. Browning tonight said he wenly discont-nue any efforts to retafn Mary as his adopted daughter, and when afked if he would adopt some other girl, he answere “No, indeed, I will not adopt any- one elae.”” When Browning called reporters to his office early this week, and an- nounced he had chosen Mary Louise to be his adopted daughter, and com- panion to little Dorothy Sunshine, bis first adopted child, neighbors began to murmur that the Bohemian older than the age of 16 ve. Stoutly defending Mary, Browning took her shopping on Fifth avenue and bought her hats and gowns and finery to her heart's content, an em- erald “bracelet among other things, The millionaire announced that she was to have every luxury her child- ish dreams cotlid ever have pictured. But the murmur of — discontent grew stronger, facts which the au- thorities could not ignore were laid before them and the affair culmin- ated in a thoroush investigation this afternoon, \Meanwhile Mary Louise, who had gone with her new fairy godfather to Kew Gardens, attempted to com- mit suicide last night, or at least tried to swallow a portion of fodine, After she had been saved from mo- ministration of the white of an egg; ministration of the white of an egg, Mary said she tried to die beca’ she was ashamed of those pictures in the paper, “sitting on Mr. Brown- ing’s lap.” ‘The millionaire who began to find the publicity surrounding his adop- tion of the girl a bit more than he had bargained for, sought to take ‘Mary Louise away on a “little week- end-tour."" But the District Attorney who had Natened to stories of the girl's par- ents and had been advised of the proposed intervention of. other, in- terested parties, summoned Brown- ing and Mary Louise to his office this aftegnoon. At Newaombe's office were gather. ed the District Attorne: Commis- stoner Coler, Browning, Mary Louise and the girl's father. The modern Cinderella faced them all bravely. Tle nerve that had failed her when she attempted to drink the todine remained with her throughout the interview. “why did you tell Mr. Browning and everyone you were only 16?” “Tam only 16,” the girl answered. “But why persist in that etry when your father and mother admit you are 21, and the school records show that, well as the immigra- tion records?” the District Attorney asked, having obtainéd these facts within the last few hours. Cinderella. raised her Jarge hazel eyes and@ looked at her questioner a trifle dfamatically, “My happiness is at stake,’ she sald slowly. “I am only 16.” Francis C. Dale, Browning's at- torney, said the girl was an “ad- venturess’ and that she must take the consequence of her deceit of the millionaire. Browning, his head hanging, had Uttle to say, Earlier in the after: noon, he insisted he would keep Mary Loulse, and that they were still fond of each other. “T will not let her go,” he sald. And Mary Louise chimed in that she loved Browning and loved life and wanted to stay with him and be happy. Even when her parents, awed by the presence of the officials urged the girl to confess her true age, she stuck by her story, And_.so the law, decided that this modern Cinderella must leave her |’ luxurious home and her fairy god- father and go intg seclusion until next Tuesday. Both she and Brown- ing are under orders not to leave the jurisdiction of Queens county. “I think Browning has done a great deal of harm in the way in which he went about this matter of adopting a daughter,” the district attorney sald. Because of a complaint made by Mrs. Anna St, John of Rye, N. Y., that the millionaire was not a proper guardian for Dorothy Sunshine, his nine-year-old adopted daughter, there will be a further investigation by an agent of the Society for Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children. Mrs, St. John was the first foster mother of Dorothy Sunshine who Was adopted by the.

Mrs, Mary Colbourne in charge of the camp was present. Mrs. Colbourne incidentally sald she believed that “no girl has a more devoted father” than Browning has been to Dorothy.

The 6 a sil runner-up a medalist who South Pass Placer Dredging Company 317 Consolidated Royalty Building es Casper, Wyoming cA NNOUNCEMENT “Large Oaks from Small Acorns Grow” serene teeter nme ase A CONTE GTOW The South Pass Placer Dredging Company, in the summer of 1924, went into the South Pass Mining District, south of Lander some thirty-five miles, and have been engaged in placer mining of gold in a limited and crude way since that time; and makes the fol. lowing announcement: During that time, the company has dug something over 1,000 mpling holes or pits in and upon the claims owned by it, and have just completed a mining engineer's report on about 2,700 acres along the Sweetwater River, running west from Section 1, Town- ship 28 North, Range 98 West in a southwesterly direction extend- ing over Sections 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 16 in this township; shows this remarkable result: and The territory mentioned comprises about 2,700 acres, and in thi: report the mining engineer considers that better than one-half is valuable placer mining ground, and for safety’s sake, he has taken just one-half, 1,350 acres, of the placer gold gravel ground and finds that it contains workable ground of over 21,000,000 cubic yards, and estimating that this yardage will yield a value of not less than 50c per cubic yard, on the average, brings a remarkable result thereof of $10,890,000,00, In figuring the cost of handling same, we think that he has fig- ured it plenty high in his estimate of the cost thereof at 11c per cubic yard, making the total cost $2,395,800.00, thus producing in gold from the ground under this estimate, now known to be gold- bearing gravel, would leave a net result to the company, of handling this yardage, of $8,494,200.00. This is a fair, reasonable and con- aervative estimate of the gold in the placer gravel that is “in sight” at this time on this acreage. This ground is immediately contiguous and adjacent to the camp of the company which is situate on the northwest quarter of Section 16, Township 28 North, Range 98 West, Fremont County, Wyoming. The samples obtained from the prospect work that has been carried on by the company for the past year are very inviting, show coarse gold in payable quantities, and that the gravel that contains the same can be easily worked and operated by the use of modern and efficient machinery. The company has been capitalized at a ridiculously low capi- talization considering the amount of acreage which is controlled by this company, amounting to over 11,000 acres. The management of this company has had many inquiries as to when an opportunity would be given for the purchase of some of this stock and, in view of these inquiries, has now decided to place on sale for those who wish to invest, in our local community, not to exceed $12,500,00 of the stock. The denomination of this stock is of the par value of 1c and the price of the stock will be placed at the rate of $10.00 per thousand shares and will bé available from the 11th day of August, 1925, until the first day of September, 1925, at this price. After the first day of September, this stock will not be sold for less than $20.00 per thousand shares. This announcement, we hope, will be sufficient notice to the stockholders of the company now holding stock in this company, as well as new persons who wish to become stockholders thereof. The management of this company will be glad to explain all details in relation to the company, and also have a complete set of photographs and maps that can be inspected by any person wish- ing to invest, and will be glad to give time and attention to these matters in detail.
