Fontaine said: | “My daughter Evan, who is an ac- complished dencer, first met Mr, Whitney at a ball given at the Ritz lin 1919 by Mrs. Willlam X. Vander- bilt, Jr. Evan had been engaged tc put on a ballet, Sonny, as we call Mr Whitney, immedfately fell in love with Evan “Evan and I were stopping at the Hotel Pennsylvania about that time, and every week end, Sonny would come down from Yale and spend the short holiday with us. Tt was not long before the two became engaged | We made no public announcement, bhut all of Sonny's {riends at college knew of it. “Mr. Whitney was a steady caller at our home until shortly before the baby was born. For a while we saw | but little of him. Evan went up to New Haven to see him. and told ‘him | of her conditicn. Sonny promisal |her he would marry her. They would have eloped then and there, but some difficulty he encountered at college prevented him."” Repeated ohstacles were met, she | said, when lawyers to whom she went refused to take up the case.

Adair, a Texas KLAN CANDIDATE LEADS CULBERSON Battle of Religious Dilferences Splits Primaries —— Houston, Tex., July 24.—On a plat- form of religlous differences, Ku Klux Klan candidates won sweeping vie- tories in the democratic primaries Saturday, causing a split in the party that will be healed only after years of bitterness, ° In practically all important offices, the Kian either obtained a clear ma- Jority ensuring nomination or a plu- rulity which will necessitate a run or primary on August 26 with the next highest candidate on the Iists, Earle B, Mayfield, Klan indorsed candidate for the senate geat now held by Charles A. Culherson, is leading on the basis of returns recelved last night. Former Governor James E. Terguson, Impeached In 1917, {s second and Mr. Culberson, who is third in a six-cornered race, will be sent back to private life after twenty- four years in the Senate unless he can overcome Ferguson's lead., In that case ‘he will fight it out with Mayfield at the run-off primary. Gov. Pat M. Neff, indorsed by the Klan, has a clear majority over his two opponents for renomination and there will probably be no need for a run-off, Billie Mayfleld Jr., man, indorsed by the Klan but never taken seriously by the anti-Klan forces, {8 far ahead in the race for lieutenant governor. He and T. W, Davidson, anti-Klan candidate, will probably be in the run-off. If Culberson can get into the run- off primary, there is a very good chance that Mayfleld will be beaten. The old Senator has a powerful grip on Texas voters and it is likely that practically all the other anti-Klan groups will line up behind him., At present he has 59,000 to Ferguson's 68,000 and Mayfleld's 84,000, with half the state still out. However, the situation gives the re- publicans the greatest opportunity they have had in Texas for years. ‘With the democratic party split wide open ig a storm of religious bigotry their opponents may gain several seats in a state that has had hut one republican congressman in yvears. The Klan has made regigion the jparamount issue. Proclaiming that it stands for Protetstantism against Catholic and Jewish domination and appealing strongly to the woman vote, it has built up powerful organizations. In the face of the furicus opposition of 80 per cent. of the judiciary and a majority of the press, the Klan has followed this general procedure Only a short time before the elec- tion the Klan put forward its local candidates. Its ticket was desig- nated as Protestants and then organ- fzed a so-called League of Protestant Women. All over the state the {sane suddenly became a question of Protes- tants against Jews and Catholics, and almost uniformily the Klan won. Of course not all the Protestants lined up with the Klan. In fact al- most all the anti-Klan candidates were Protestants. But the fact remains a newspaper Mrs. !
