Detectives are to-day searching for the smooth - spoken, nice - looking young man who yesterday deserted his prospective bride, Mrs. Mary B.| Sloane, who gave her address as the Hotel Majestic, in the banking room of the German-American Bank, No. 98 Broad street. For, incidentally, when/the young fan uncermoniously took his depar- ture from the woman he bad wooed ‘and won in less than a week, he car- ried with him bits of her jewel dis- play to the value of $1,400 and left her with @ collection of his own I. O. U.'s to the extent of $85. According to the story told the bank officials and the detectives by Mrs. Sloane, who is a widow about thirty and very good looking, she met the man in the case last Saturday night at one of the town's leading tango emporiums. He was introduced to her she said as Howard L. Hanson, and described himself as a wealthy commission merchant of Chicago. He was young, handsome, a divine dancer and Mrs. Sloane readily as- ' to call upon her next day. / CHECK HE EXPECT! ARRIVED. He appeared with a look of great eorrow on his face to keep that en- gagement, Mrs. Sloane said. Money he had been expecting from Chicago had not arrived. He was in a dire predicament. Mrs. Sloane was sym- pathetic. When he left that evening he carried with him $25 loaned him by the lady and she held his receipt. He called again next day. Still the expected remittance from the West was missing, and again Mrs. Sloane came io the rescue. She was forced | to dig into her treasury again and} again until Thursday, when he called and promptly exhibited a check for $270 drawn on a Chicago bank. He suggested that the amount called for would just about serve to defray the expenses of a wedding and a short honeymoon, Mrs. Sloane agreed with him. It was then and there decided | o t the wedding should be the next ay. But at 1.30 o'clock yesterday after-| moon Mrs. Sloane was called to tho! telephone. Excitedly her near-spouse formed her that he could not secure * the identification necessary to have the check cashed. However, he said that the paying teller at the German- American Bank had expressed his willingness to cash the check if jew- @iry to cover the amount of the check be deposited with him until tne check was accepted by the Chicago bank. .

At 2.45 o'clock yosterday afternoon, fifteen minutes before the closing of the bank, when the banking room was crowded with messengers from nearby brokerage houses, Mra. Sloane and Hanson arrived. The lady waa given a chair within the cashier's en- closure andythe man took a position fn the long line that then extended from the paying teller'’s cage.

Ambrose had four Wives. Not contemporaneously, but with a proper consecutiveness four delightful women willingly promised to love, honor and obey Ambrose. Yet he was not handsome. was not a hypnotist. How did Ambrose do it? That's what womankind. He was not rich. Mra, Margaret Vandercook explains to us in her recently published novel, “The Loves of Ambrose.” And when I talked to her yesterday after- noon she gave an even more complete and definite analysis of Ambrose’s method. In her opinion the three essenti the lady-killer aro Impressionability, Humor. The first two act directly, the last is of great indirect assistance in understanding the ways of requisites for Sympathy and a} “You see, I knew Ambrose,” Mrs. Vandercook explained, smilingly. “He was an uncle of mine. @ Southern man, love and more skilful love than I come fi rom Louisville, Kentucky, and he was I really do think that the men of the South make more Northerners, and I also think that Europeans are more adroit at expressing sentiment than Americans.” “And women do like men to show that they care,” I observed. “Indeed they do!” exclaimed Mrs, Vandercook, opening her blue eyes wide. They are very pretty eyes, and her face has that peculiar roundness and softness which Southern women retain for so long. With her ash- brown hair and her supple curves she is an attractive and youthful figure. “The man most attractive to women is, above everything else, the man most attracted by them. He @ man to whom, through- out his life, Woman ie the su- preme thing. He is eminently impr jabli The man for whom every woman has a weak- ness is the man who makes her ! while she talks to him that she is the only thing in the world.” “Reading of Ambrose it seemed to me that he was the type which we describe nowadays as ‘a good fusser', I remarked. “And you believe that sort is attractive to others besides very young girls?" A CASE ‘OF IMPROVING WITH AGE. “Consider Ambrose's matrimonial record!” laughed Mrs. Vandercook, “His first wife, indeed, was a sixteen- year-old girl; it was a case of spring- time fancy, But the second woman he married was in the full pride of intelligent young maturity; ehe was the greatest love of his life. I be. lieve that the most sentimental man has a grand passion. In middle age a rich widow chose him in preference to two other sultors. And even when he was very old he found a spinster ho gladly accepted him as a bus- and,” b “And yet he had neither wealth nor good looks,” 1 mused, For he merely owned half a country store, and at nineteen he stood six feet four in his stocking feet, with big bones, a high forehead, straight, straw-colored hatr and solemn, lght-blue eyes. “A man need not be good-look- ing in ordor to make a hit with Mrs. Vandercook, “We like mon who are manly and strong, but | don’t think we mind homeliness. At a dinner the other night we were ing that the jast word in feminism would be spoken when women dared to be homely- homely as lots of successful men are. “In the matter of money T think the modern girl is apt to be more particular than were the laswles fifty years ago in Kentucky, Other things! being equal, the man of fortune wins out over the poor man when women are in question, Nevertheless, the oor man is not even yet to be de- spised as a rival, provided that he wants to succeed with women and that he possesses boll sympathy and bumor, “Women are attraéted by the man who understands them, and who is tender to their weaknesses and woes, They like to lean upon @ bread shoulder, literally and metaphorically. And they like Sympathy and tenderness to be expressed. WHY EUROPEANS ARE BETTER LOVERS THAN AMERICAN: “I have said that Europeans are! better lovers than Amoricans, but I do not belleve it is because ‘Ameri- | cans are without sentiment. Only many of them keep it so well hidden! For their own sakes they ought not to do so, and for the sake of Ameri- jean women. I don't belleve that all the international marriages are sim- ply an exchange of money for social Position. In fact, I have a number of friends most happily married to Europeans who are not afraid to love and to show that they love.” “But how does the quality of humor aid a man in his love affairs?" I j asked, “In a husband it's enormously valuable, of course, but what does it do for a lover?” “It helps him in his task of under- itanding nen and sympathizing with them,” she replied. “He avoids useless tragedies, A sense of humor means a sense of proportion and therefore an appreciation of values. So much unhappiness can be avoided if one doesn’t take the world too se- riously.” “You believe in falling in love, don’t you?” I charged Mrs. Vandercook, “I do,” she admitted, candidly. “The best way in.the world for a man to keep young is to keep on falling in love, 1 don't rec- ommend dyna which is fall- ing in love with a new woman when you have an old one. But why can't a man just fal love again with his wife, and recourt her till he wakes both of them | up?" Now wouldn't it be a welcome nov- elty if he did that very little thing! Rut the average man is the one who remarked to Mrs. Vandercook the other day, "Gee! T wish I'd had Am- brose’s luck—four chances to get married.” To De “J. B.

At last the group narrowed down to a prominent Pittaburg lawyer and myself. The lawyer was Thomas Patterson. Hoe said: “I have often thought that there wi: great story to be written around the murders of the Horbert Fuller, and I also believe that in that case there was a grave miscartiage of justice.” I was im- mediately interested.
