the nvl officer was filled with honors
and he acquired a fortune.
Soon afier his retirement he met Mrs.
Jennie Jiav Ainsworth. the daughter of
O. Harrison of Alexandria. Va. Mr.
' Ainsworth later divorced her husband
D H. Ainsworth. an employe of the Sen-
ate at Washington and she and the ad-
miral wen married In 1907. Their court-
ship was described by the admiral In a
statement which he made during a brief
estrangement from his wife four years
go. He said: .
-1 met Mrs. Ainsworth in Chicago and
t that time I thought she was a widow.
At that time however she wan not ac-
tually divorced from her husband-. It was
not intil Just before my marriage thai I
learned she had a husband. Then she
told me that her husband was alive and
that he had just obtained a divorce from
. him on the grounds of drunkenness and
desertion.
Money Prior to Wedding.
"During the time I paid attention to
' her knowing her straightened circum-
stances and. thinking that her husband
was dead 1 helped toward the support of
her children giving her money though
at the time I did not know for what pur-
pose she was using it. Later after the
marriage 1 learned that 1 had been pay-
ing for the divorce proceedings which
she had instituted against her husband
r married her because 1 ha said I
would and was too much of a gentleman
to withdraw my promise. She has al-
ways been a good wife.
"I knew that money was given to Ains-
worth. bu never with my consent except
once: then 1 paid his fare to Cleveland
to get rid of him."
After their marriape the Batons came
to Brooklyn. Soon afterward the Admi-
ral met with financial reverses and in
his last days led an unpretentious life
on a poultry farm in Norwell.
-Tlis principal income was from his al-
lowance as a retired naval officer which
amounted to 0w a year. It is under-
stood that his estate is represented
largely by a life Insurance policy for
SttMM.
' I Secretly Adopted Infant.
Disappointed that a child had not been
born to them tbe Admiral about two
years after his second marriage secretly
adopted an infant which he proclaimed
as his own. The deception was success-
ful for a time but the baby died when
a few months old. Mrs. Eaton declared
that the Infant had been poisoned and
am examination of the stomach was marie.
No poison was found but as a result of
her charge Mrs. Katon was estranged
' from her husband for a brief period.

Ainsworth Mrs. Eaton's first husband
resumed friendly relations with the
Katon family and was an occasional vis-
itor at their home. Mrs. Eaton has stated
that her husband tas much interested In
drugs and their effect upon persons and
devoted much of his time to strange ex-
periments. . - The Blue and starred flag of the Keai-

Admiral at Dracut. The association made

United States Navy retired nnd the
strangest part of the male of murder
charges poisoning plots and deaths Is
tliat tlie whole remarkable rtarraiiw clings
about the love of an old man for a little
child.
I'pon the groundwork of that love !a
built the story of two tragic deaths two
sets of murder charges and the gossipy
scandal that Involves the name of a man
who commanded at different times four of
ine prouaesc war vessels inn ever carnea
the American nag- and who was the swift
Mercury of the sea who told the world
tnat Spain s fleet hail been annihilated
near the harbor of Santiago.
Admiral Eaton came from Alabama.
He was born at UreenviUe in that
State. 7 years ago. After graduation
from the Naval Academy he served
through the various ranks of the ser-
vice commanding at times the United
States the Enterprise the Resolute the
inesapease. me Oregon ana the Massa
chusetts. He commanded the Resolute at
the battle of Santiago and a as retired
iron tne rank of Admirmi in lsax
Less than 1 years ago the admiral
met Mrs. D. H. Ainsworth in Chicago.
The widowed officer said that she gave
him the impression that her husband was
dead. .Ainsworth who had been a clerk
in the Senate was very much alive and
me divorce was soon obtained.
The old officer wanted a son to bear
nis name.
Secretly he adonted the ir.fint nf Me
Elisabeth Nettie Hearts and chri.tene4
ii juwpn uiiqs Eaton jr. i;ts wife en-
tered into the plan and -the ehild was
introduced to the two young girls of the
family as their newly arrived step-
brother. The heart of the oid man -went
out to the HtUe stranger with curious
affection. It seemed to fill a great void
m tne scneme ot the EAion establish-
ment. Four months ifter the adoption while
me l unu was in its go-cart aril tie ad-
miral was bathing in the sen within
sight there came a scream The wife
hurried the. child to a doctor and !i died
shortly afterward. .
Immediately the ;communKTr is as-
tounded by Mrs. Eaton who charged
that her husband had poisoned the chad.
Why?
The community asked the question.
His love for the baby was known. There
was no apparent change in tills affec-
tion and the charge therefore excited the
greatest Interest. The vital organs of
the infant were sent to Professor Whit-
ney. he same scientist who is now
analyzing the organs of. the admiral. He
found no trace of poison.
In the backfire of charges and counter-
charges the admiral said that his wife
was insane upon the subject of poison:
that she had often charged him with
trying to poison her and her daughters.
The infant's death was forgotten. So
were the Eatons.
Then came the news that the (-otitis'
nau oei reqpncuea ana were together
at West Norwell.
BROTHER-IN-LAW
DENOUNCED BECKER
la August 1911 Mayor Gaynor
Was Notified of Police Lieu-
tenant's Character.
Associated Press Report.)
NEW YORK March JO. Letters read
today before the aldermanlc commutes
investigating police graft showed that'
Mayor Gaynor and Police Commissioner
"Waldo were warned against the charac-
ter of Police Lieutenant Charles Becker
as far back as August 1911. John r.
Lynch brother-in-law of Becker bit-.
teriy denounced the former police officer
In a letter to the Mayor. The letter was
referred to Commissioner Waldo who
told the Mayor that "this seems to be
a family row" and "Becker la doing ex-
cellent work."
"One of my sisters Is unfortunately
his wife. She works for him teaches
school" Lynch wrote of Becker "end
he. herolike takes her money. She be-
ing away he asks another of my sis-
ters to come to his house yesterday to
cook but attempted to assault her. She
successfully resisted him threatening to
cut him with a earring knife whereupon
he got his revolver and shouted he would
shoot.
Threatened to Us Squad.
"By yelling 'murder she was able to
get out. He threatened her witl arrest
and said he would get one of his squad
(the 'strong arm' squad) to catch her on
the street some night and lock her up
for soliciting. She came home crying
and with her waist torn."
Becker's wife stood by Becker stauncn-
ly during his exposure and trial and la
now aiding in his appeal to the higher
court. .
Another letter; written to the Mayor
last March by one Henry .Williams
asked that Becker be. investigated. "He
is getting more money than a former
chief of police" the writer said naming
tne cniet. This missive was sent oy
Mayor Gaynor to police headquarters;
there it waa turned over to Becker him-
self the record showed "for investiga-
tion and report." Becker's report was
that he bad assigned a detective ta Una
the writer and that the detective had
failed to do so after Interviewing Bin
men named Henry -Williams.
Two Policemen Indicted.
Two more policemen were Indicted by
the graft grand Jury today." They are
Patrolman Victor Meyer and William
J. Smith and are accused of bribery.

OUTCASTS OF UNDERWORLD
- HATE THE WHITE SLAVER
Fallen Women Beg for Permission to Help Solve the Social
Evil Question
(Assoriattd Prttt Report.)
ALBANY "N. Y March 20. A cry from
the outcasts of the underworld pleading
for an opportunity to co-operate In ef
forts being made to solve the social evil
question is voiced in letters to the spe-
cial legislative committee appointed to
draft remedial police legislation for New
xorK city rnese letters among tne
thousands or more received by the com-
mittee from New York city officials so-
cial and civic bodies and citizens srener-
!' ally will be given serious consideration.
oenaior v agner cnairman ot me com-
mittee announced today that more meet-
ings of the committee - would be held
and the Senate today extended the time
for receiving the report another week.
Source bf All Graft
Mr. Wagner tonight made public sev
eral letters received from women of the
underworld who insist that they can be
of assistance to the city if permitted to
co-operate in their own way toward re-
stricting and segregating the social evil.
They claim this phase of the situation in
New York city is the source of all graft.'
They support the plan of the citizens'
committee proposing a social welfare
commission and pledge themselves to be
of greater value to such a commission
than all of the social and civic oodles in
New York.
These women also declare the time has
come when New York should at least
handle the subject practically and sensi
bly and "not make any attempt to drive
unfortunate women from homes that
Klv annoyance to no one to the streets
and to gutters and to help swell the
army of street walkers who have no re-
gard for their own physical condition nor
the health of the people In whose midst
they circulate."
Some Good Some Bad. ;
One woman wrote: "I am represent
ing thousands of unfortunate girls that
are without homes; some are working for
starvation wages; some are selling tneir
souls to keep off starvation and cold.
These women are much like other women
where all grades ars to be found In their
ranks some good some bad and other
vary bad. My experience Is tmTr the out-
cast women of society have a code of
morals and are honest In the majority.
The better half would . be surprised to
know of the self sacrifices that many of
these women make for those that are de-(
nendent uoon them for sustenance and'
almost every girl has one or more de
pendent upon her for support.
I have had girls In my house who
have - had royal blood In - their veins.
Many of them were the descendants of
the best families in Europe and America.
Some were the daughters of well known
clergymen of Chicago Philadelphia New
York and Boston. The army - of ths
'fallen' is recruited from all ranks of
society. Including the daughters of the

Remove Pollcs From Temptation.
' "If you wish to get rid of graft In the
police department for all time to come"
wrots another woman "remove the police
department from all temptation. Take the
social evil out of the police department
entirely. ' ' '
"If we were protected by the city In-
stead of -persecuted and oppressed and
driver! and hounded from pillar to post
wa would be of great help io the city by
protecting the young women 1mm the
procurer and convict every one of them
by a simple process of informing this
(social welfare) committee. . Should a
cadet bring a girl to our houses .wa will
pledge ourselves to help proseciltn and
convict any white slaver that comes be-
fore us. - ft Is only through us an! in
co-operation with us that you will ac
complish this.
"Should a young girl come to us with
the Intention of leading that life we
could again communicate with this com-
mittee and thus save her from gving
farther by taking care of her and per-
suading her and giving her a little purse
which we have done- so many times and
send her home to her parents without
publicity and before it Is too late." .

Harris County Stock Law.
A bill by Kirby and Haxtbausen was
Introduced today placing Harris County
under the provisions of the stock law.
It provides that upon the written petition
of 20 freeholders In any subdivision ot
the county as may be described In the
petition and defined bv the Commission
ers Court an election may be Ordered
enabling the freeholders of such subdi-
vision to determine whether horses
mules. Jacks Jennets and cattle shall be
permitted to run at large. It further pro-
vides that no subdivision as described In
the petition shall extend further than
three miles from the boundaries of any
incorporated citv or town. The bill has
been favorably reported by the committee
and will be passed on next local bill day.
What promises to be an Interesting
fight is scheduled to come up tomorrow
over the action of the House in recalling
from the Senate House bill No. 408 by
Stevens of Liberty which seeks to en-
large the powers of oil companies .char-
tered under the laws of this State en-
abling them to purchase own and control
barges and also that they may own
stock In other companies. The bill was
considered in the House a few day ago
passed and 'ent to the Senate and re-
ceived a favorable committee report
there. In the meantime the supposed
fight of the Standard Oil vs. the Texas
Oil Company came on the charge being
that the bill was drawn in the interest
of the former resulting in the passage
of a resolution asking the Senate to re-
turn the bill.
' Steven Caught Napping.
' Stevens was caught napping when the
motion was put and carried and Utter
moved to reconsider the vote b- which
the request for return was made where-
upon Watson of Hays moved to table the
motion; the vote being Si eye3 and 68
nays. This means that the entire mat-
ter will be threshed out In the House to-
morrow and the old story of Standard
Oil will be regaled fb the delectation of
the members. In this connection Mr.
Steven arose td a question of privilege
this afternoon and replied to statement
In a local afternoon paper that the I 111
was drawn In the interest of the out
lawed company.
The frM conference committee on re-
districting la still far from agreement 1
and it id reported that the House mem
bars will ask for instruction before pro-
ceeding further- The town Is rapidly
filling up with' Congressmen who are in-
terested In what the committee I doing
or is going to do. if anything. The lat-
est arrival I Congressman Henry to
whom as were all tne other Congres-
sional visitors an Invitation was ex-
tended to address the Senate which he
accepted confining his remarks to Na-
tional Issues. The chief trouble lies in
the West Texas section.' If a tier ot

posed of so as to suit the present Con-
gressman a- possible candidate for Con
greea as well as the people of the Sec-
tion a bill would be reported 'in short

TRAVELER TALKS
Hunted Throughout America for
. What He Unexpectedly Found
in Houston.'
Mr. J. C. Miles ot 1305 Capitol Avy
nue a man of worldwide travel makes
a statement regarding his coming to
Houston and of the. tests that ensued
with the us of the new earth product.
Vitalltas. For twenty years he has beeni
a sufferer of ailments in a chronic form
and his escape from these came unex-
pectedly after settling In Houston. Mr.
Miles says:
"8ince 1890 1 have had chronic di-
arrhoea and stomach trouble. I have
visited all of the famous watering places
of the United States and have spent hun-
dreds of dollars with specialists - but
never had satisfactory results. When 1
came to Houston I was like a drowning
man grasping- for a straw. So 1 tried
Vitalltas which has positively cured me
of these longstanding troubles. I have
gained It pounds In three week. t
-would not take ten thousand dollars for
what Vitalltas has done for me. I
heartily recommend it to any one af-
flicted as I was." 1
- Vitalltas is the most remarkable medi-
cinal discovery of the age. It is just as
nature made It and is extracted pure
from the volcanlo substance in which it
is found. It banishes many of the most
troublesome disease conditions that hu-
manity has to contend with it is free
of any harmful Ingredient and every drop
of It is beneficial. It restores vital force
Into all weakened functions or portions
of the body and is an absolute specific
for such ailments as indigestion rheuma-
tism biliousness catarrhal ailments and
in fact every derangement of stomach
liver kidneys and blood. It Is guaran-
teed. ' Visit Rouse's drug store see tne
