Thomas Gargan, # | POLISH PRIMA DONNA REPORTED ENGAGED MiLe WaLska, Lowell M. Palmer Jr., a member of . | one of the oldest families in Brooklyn, refused to-day to deny a report that he is to marry Mme. Ganna Walska, a Polish prima donna who made her American debut last April in the French operetta “Mile, Nitouche” at the Century Theatre. Mme. Walska would neither deny nor affirm the re- port, and Mr. Palmer at his home, No. 134 Columbia Heights, merely sdid the story had been given out without authority. Mme. Walska is the widow of Baron @'Bingorn, a Russian army officer, who was Killed in the fighting in Poland about three months ago. She has not received any official notifica- tion of her husband's death as yet, but knows that it is true. They had not lived together for several years, Mme. Walska elopéd with her hus- band when seventeen years old and was separated from him after a few months, Mr. Palmer is the President of the Palmer Lime and Cement Company of |, Brooklyn, and interested in several other industries, , SHE BANQUETS ‘KIDS’ WHO ANNOYED HER Finding Peace Obtainable No Other Way, Music Teacher Gains Truce With Food. Mme. Ida Haggerty-Snell, who has @ echool of music at No. 130 Weat Ninety-seventh Street, gave a water- melon party yesterday to thirty-four children who used to hurl rocks at her windows and the caps of beer bottles at her, They also used to screech when she sang, yell when her assist- ant played and scream when her pu- pils practised, The police, according to Mme. Hag- . | gerty-Snell, acknowledged themselves powerless, and she found life almost unbearable, Then about ten days ago she became desperate and called out to the bad youngsters: “Don't you want to come in and let me teach you how to sing?” “Sure, we do!” they answered, afa, rushing into the house, broke some of the furniture and misbehaved in as many ways as a group of healthy children can devise, Girls and boys both fought. But Mhally music soothed their sav- age breasts, Yesterday they entered the house in gvod order, and between B01 listened to informal talks on conduct. Only when watermelon was announced did the marshals ap- pointed by Mme. Haggerty-Snell have trouble in upholding their slogan of “Girls fret.” HEIRESS AND HUSBAND VANISH ON HONEYMOON Report That Mr. and Mrs. Howard Spaulding Jr. Took Train to Canada CHICAGO, Aug. 2.—The $30,000,000 tetress, now Mrs, Howard Spaulding jr., and her husband, whom she married at Harbor Point on Saturday, have disappeared.

TO BROOKLYN MAN. Two men sheltered by an umbrella were walking alongside Ne!i Flan- nery’s saloon at Eighth Avenue and Sixteenth Street at 1,30 o'clock this morning and when they noticed Po- liceman Lucey coming through Six- teenth Street trying doora they whis- tled. r Immediately two other men darted out of the side door of the saloon. The whistiers ran north in Eighth Avenue and the others ran south, De- tectives Gilkerson, McManus and Noonan, who had been hiding in shadows across the street from the saloon, pursued, and Policeman Lucey joined them. All four fugitives were caught. One who iater said he was William Wallace, a homeless ex-convict, thrust a@ hand into his hip pocket, but De- tective McManus had his revolver out first and Wallace threw up his hands, A loaded revolver, it was said, was found in his pocket, Wallace was charged with burglary and violation of the Sullivan law. The other prisoners, who said they were Edward Noonin, of No, 69 Thomas Street, Newark; William Taylor, a driver,-of No. 459 West Seventeenth Street, and William Riley, no home, were charged with burglary. The po- lice say Taylor and Riley, as well as Wallace, have served prison sentences. Flannery, owner of the saloon, was notified and arrived at Police Head- quarters shortly after the prisoners. He told the police there was $2,500 in his safe. In the hall at the rear of the saloon was found a complete set of safe-breaking tools. — HOTEL PORCH FALLS; 9 HURT AT ROCKAWAY Crowd of Diners Dropped Fifteen Feet to Beach, Cut and Bruised.

H., Aug. 2.—A bit of humor was injected into the Cowles divorce case to-day when the Pet 7 Shares. No matter how great nor how prompt his divi- dends, a stockholder is not satisfied if he has been led to expect something greater or quicker. So— While I believe this venture will be even more profitable than any of my earlier ones, I am mak- ing no definite predictions as to date or amount. ~ And no one else has any authority to make them— I want satisfied stockholders— Which is why I am printing this advertisement. Warning! From the momént the organization of the Tri- angle Film Corporation was announced, all sorts of fantastic tales of fabulous expenditure and still more fabulous profits have been flying about. Based chiefly on fact, these stories have, in some cases, grown into such gross exaggerations as to amount to misrepresentation. Dealing with a subject thatinterestsmore than , half the people of the United States, such exag- geration is not unnatural. Most of thestock of the Triangle Film Corpo- ration is held by Mr. Griffith, producer of ‘“The . Birth of a Nation;”’ Mr. Ince, producer of ‘“The Battle of Gettysburg”’ and other big pictures of the big outdoors; Mr. Sennett, producer of ‘‘Keystone Comedies;’’ Messrs. Bauman & Kessel, proprietors of the New York Motion Picture Corporation; myself or others directly concerned in the manage- ment. All of this stock is deposited for two years and cannot come on sale. The remainder has been underwritten by a syndicate which wil] in turn dispose of it through brokers in the open market. While I, and the experienced and _success- ful motion picture men who are with me in this Company, have every reason to believe the business will be highly profitable, and while it is, in our opinion, extremely likely that the stock will advance rapidly in value, there is no authority whatever for thestatement that either the Company itself or any of its officers guarantees or promises dividends of given amount or within a stated time. Any business yielding such amazing profitsas this business yields is subject to great risks. : It is not the type of investment for the man who cannot afford the chance of loss. ‘0 The total capital is $5,000,000—all common stock, par value $5.
