WARDIS TO BUY ~ALLINLVELY RAD Fair Subject of Visit to the Laurelton Only One Miss- ing at Hearing. TWO SLEUTHS FINED. Ejected From Hotel, They Chased Hysterical Girl Through the Streets, The profession of a young woman with violet eyes, who was in W. G. Bhelton's room in the Hotel Laurelton, No, 147 West Fifty-fifth street, last Baturday night was a matter of some dispute in West Side Police Court to- day. The question came up in the course of the arraignment of Cornelius McClellan, a private detective, and Louis Rosenbaum, a stenographer, on @ charge of disorderly conduct pre- ferred by Mr. Shelton and Stephen 8. Dooley, night clerk’ of the hotel. Mr. Shelton said the young woman was a manicurist who had called to Polish his nails. Mr. Dooley sald that when the young woman went to Mr. Shelton’s room he understood she was a chiropodist who had called to make gome repairs to Mr. Shelton’s feet. The private detective maintained that the young woman was neither a man- feurist nor a chiropodist. Whatevel her status it was developed in the course of the hearing that her pres- ence in the Laurelton last’ Saturday night bred a large and widespread Tow. Mr. Shelton by profession 1s a “vi- bratory healer.” His wife is suing him for divorce, and Cornelius Me- Clelian and his brother, Robert Mc- Clelian, have been trailing him in an effort to get evidence. Cornelius Mc- Clellan was watching the Laurelton Saturday night when the young ‘woman called and went to Mr. Shel- ton's room. Cornelius Shelton telephoned for his brother and for Rosenbaum, who 4s a stenographer employed by Mrs. Shelton’s lawyer. The two McClel- Jans and Rosenbaum went to the twelfth floor and to Mr. Shelton’s room. While the two detectives crouched outside the door Rosen- baum, in the role of a topmounter, climbed on their shoulders and es- g@ayed to look into the room through the transom. . Mr, Shelton saw Rosenbaum's shad- ow, stepped into an adjoining room and telephoned the office. Clerk Dooley hurried upstairs and after a lot of loud Conversation the two McClellans and Rosenbaum were ejected from the hotel. About twenty minutes later the young woman hurried out of the front @ntrance and jumped into a taxical But the vigilant McClellans were the job. They were right across the street in a touring car, and when the taxicab started away they trailed it. All over the Tenderloin and up through Central Park the taxi chauf- feur dodged and twisted, but the touring car hung on his trail. After half an hour the taxi returned to the hotel and the young woman, who had developed a case of hysteria, leaped out and rushed into the office. “I'm a decent girl,” she screamed. “They have nothing on me.” The two McClellans and Rosen- baum followed her in, Mr. Shelton appeared, So did most of the ques’ the hotel and scores of interest: persons from the street.

Don’t Be a Superior Servant and Black Hubby’s Boots, Urges Jesse Lynch Williams, Who De- clares Something’s Wrong With Mar- riage and Wants It Fixed. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. The Marriage Strike. Because they are dissatisfled with the working condition of matri- mony, as laid down by Employer Socicty, the young men and women of to-day are beginning to unite {n a sympathetic strike against the marital union. That 1s the interesting situation which Jesse Lynch Williams has dis¢erned and described in his just published comedy of the new woman, “And So They Were Married.” Many of us will remember Mr, Williams as the author of those charming studies of sanely sophisticated domesticity, “The Married Life of the Frederick Carrolls." In his new book he by no means assumes the position of walking delegate for the marriage strike. He tries to make us realize its actual . existence only as the first step toward settling it, and A with an earnestness his wit does not disguise he indi- cates the changes which will make a final settlement possible. But whv a marriage strike at all?| her way. A motherhood pension Cherchez Ia femme, in this casa, la] law will do more to increase the femme nouvelle, Or, as Mr. Will- lams’s shrewd old Judge puts it in the play: “You can't make the New Woman marry, even the man she loves, unless she sees fit. Soci- ety can no longer force females into wediock—so it is forcing number of children than all the she was giving her time before her marriage, she should be al- lowed to do that, without inter- ference or criticism. “Then in some way there must be ;4n improvement in the economic {status of young men.

Then you don’t agree with the love in-a-cottage senti:mentalists?” L Suggested, “the persons who say that it doesn’t matter if a young couple are penniless provided they love each other?” “L think that's rot," Mr. Williams sald simply, “Ll know they say, ‘Oh, if @ woman loves her husband ‘she'll cook his meals, black his boots, do anything for him.' Suppose she is I found that he didn’t think the Judge jhad at all overstated the seriousness of the problem, DOES NOT ADVOCATE STRIKE; JUST RECORDS IT. “There are 8,000,000 women In the United States supporting themselves otherwise than by matrimony,” be began, his cigarette weaving about in an involved rotaty movement as ii pes willing.

A supe- he talked, “You can’t beg the queS-| rior servant in an inferior home a tion by calling all these women bad,/ home that will pr a stumbling or by saying that they have a’ pre) dice against husbands and children, Isn't it reasonable to suppose that what keeps them from marrying is the falsity, the unfairness of the mar- block to her husbaad's usefulness and @ hollow sphere for her own, It won't be filled with happiness for long." I recalled the “home life” foreseen by Mr. Williams's heroine if she mar- ries the man with the big brain and the small income whom she happens to love, “Think what would happen to that eagor intellect,” she ex- ° “if he had to come back narrow-minded ay dreary suburb morbid meals opposite galing him with the imbitions of the other com- Mari 1s into an atmosp!| Ugh!
