To Win His Wife Back During the time he was scorned by Germans and sneered at by the very men who took his plea of guilty, von Brincken's beautiful wife loyally clung to him—clung to the man who was exposed as a “phoney baron,” the man who admittedly was nothing more nor leas than a go-between for Franz Hopp and his peculiar Hindw affiliations, It was not until von Bricken ar rived at the federal penitentiary at MeNetls Inland that his wife began tO weaken. Surrounded by indignant Americans, Mra. von Brincken grad ually lost faith in the father of her two children, and filed sult for dt- voree. The eters von Brincken wrote to his wife while at McNeil» Inland breathe the very depths ofa soul seared and torn. Von Brincken always has sald that he will win back the wife that di- vorced him, once he sets foot in San Francisco again. And now he's on his way to San Francisco. SCHOLARSHIP ACCEPTED | ‘The BE. I.
