out, commanding features and snow white
hair combed back from the forehead, and
who sat in the very front of the grand
stand. .
She rese to her feet, and the handker-
chie'f fluttered higher. Those around her
rose. The band struck up the old familiar
air of “Auld Lau g Sync,” and 10,000 voices
joined in the strain. Then as the music
died away there was a cheer and another
until from all parts of the compass, as it
were, a mighty roar of acclaim ascended
to the skies, and in the midst of the tu-
mult the lady who had beenmistaken for
the Widow of the immortal Logan, over-
come with emotion at the scene,‘ sank
hack into her seat.
A Great Day for the G. A. R.
Tuesday was a day which will be long
remembered by the veterans of the Grand
Army of the Republic. As the opening
day'of the twenty-fifth annual encamp-
ment it marked a. quarter of a. century in
the growth of the organization. It has
been the desire of all the prominent lead-
.ars of the organization that this encamp-
ment should be the most successful in the
the most magnificent the order has ever
known. The multitudes which are as-
sembled in Detroit are larger than the
city has ever greeted before, and the pa-
rade was without precedent in past years.
Promptly at the hour indicated the
posts assembled on the line of march,
Four great arches erected by the citiaens
l?- different parts of the city marked this
$133,368.00 arch, at Fort and Griswold

passed, bore the inscription, “Cheerily on,
courageous friends, to reap the harvest of
perpetual peace, ” 0n the opposite side
Was the "inscription: “Their
brought .us peace; undying be their
fame. ” ‘
Another- arch bridged J elferson avenue,
but the tower and war arch at the inter-
section of Woodward and Jefferson ave-
cues was the finest work of art. It was
bu'llt upon the plan of the Eiffel tower of
Paris, and is a. double arch looking
through from either avenue. It is sur-
mounted by a white flag with a square of
red center, one of the designs used by the
he signal corps. A picture is given of the
ring on Fort Sumter in the foreground,
a. covered single mortar battery engaged,
with the Confederate national flag flying
from a staff planted near by; a broad
reach of water to the fort, which is
wmathed' in smoke from its own guns. '

the streets, making them practically un

echo. ‘
The place of honor had been assigned to

of its novel features being the Philadel-
phia contingent, nearly 500 strong, which
carried umbrellas, each one painted to rep-
resentaportion of the battle of Gettys
burg.
Sault Ste. .Marie post was also repre-
sented by an umbrella brigade, each um-'
brella being so painted that when com-
bined in the [line they represented Lake
Superior and the City of the $00. The
name of each post along the shores of the
great lake was painted in red, thus com-
bining the lake, the city and the national
colors. '
Astriking feature of the Michigan di-
vision was the fact that a number of old
battle flags were carried by the men who
bore them. during the war. Still another
umbrella brigade was that of George H.
Thomas Post, No. 5, of Chicago. Their
umbrellas were painted to _ represent a
monster flag of the United States, ‘cover—
ing the entire post and extending nearly
two squares. The Ohio division was very
large, and presented an imposing appear-
ance.
The departments marched in the follow-
ing manner: Illinois, Wisconsin, Pennsyl-

Jealousy and Mistaken Identity.
SARATOGA, Aug. 5. —This ' fashionable
resort is shaken over a sca'nddl just come
to light which bids fair to assume formid-
able proportions. The climax was reached
when Mrs. Henry G. Hilton,'in the public
dining room of the Windsor betel, admin-
istered a severe tongue lashing to' Mrs. G.
The Windsor
owned by Judge Hilton. Willard Lester
is the manager.
About two weeks ago Miss Willis and
Mrs. Lente became guests of the Windsor.
Mrs. Lente is the widow
in New York and Saratoga, and her sister,
Miss Eloise Willis, is an actress. She was
formerly connected with ' the Wallack
company, and had also beéu a. member of

and striking appearance.
Who Opened the Locker?
On the lake .shore is a popular resort
known ‘as Crum’s, where select driving
partiefgo for game dinners and to have a
Some who go there often have
and china ware for private use. Mrs. Hi1-
ton heard that a. party which went out to
Crum’s a. week ago last Saturday, and of
which Miss Willis and Mrs. Lente were
guests, had opened her locker and made
free use of its contents, it being at the
same time intimated that the locker was
opened with a key in the possession of a
gentleman in the party whose relations
with the Hilton family are of a very. close
and confidential nature.
When these alleged familiarities came
to the attention of Mrs. Hilton she is said
to have gone at once, and not in the most
cool and amiable frame of mind, to the
Windsor hotel to find Mrs. Lente and
Miss Willis. The interview, when she did
find them, was a stormy one. Mrs. Hilton
gave them a lecture that made them aware
'what was her opinion of them.
Mrs. Hilton’s accusation was to the
effect that her husband had induced Mr.
Willard Lester to invite these young
women, one of whom, so runs the story,
she mistook for Mrs. Nellie Case; its? Sixty-
seventh street, New York, of whom she is
said to be jealous, to visit Saratoga. The
other, Mrs. Lente, she believed to be Mrs.
Case’s friend and abettor.
The accusation made against Miss Willis
and Mrs. Lente was received with silence,
and it is reported, but denied by Mr. Les-
ter, that a demand was made of him that
“those women” should be at once turned
out of the hotel. That th‘ey' were expelled
' ' from the house is denied, but they left and
went to-the United States hotel, where
they were received as guests and assigned
to luxurious apartments.
1911's.. Lente’s Story.
Mrs. Lente’s version of the. episode is as
follows.
“I had stopped at the Windsor upon a \
previous visit. I went there the last time
intending to remain only :1 short time un-
til I sent for my mother and my little
daughter. My sister, Miss Willis, was to
'have accompanied ‘me, but at the last
minute she was delayed and did not get
here until a day after I did. On the train
coming up I met an old family friend, an
old gentleman. When we arrived here I
learned that some members of the Hilton
,family were on the train. The only mem-
mer of the family I knew was Mr. Fred
Hilton, and I spoke to him. Our old fam-
ily friend accompanied me to the hotel,
_wh'ere he also stopped. At dinner time
the old gentleman and I were given seats
at the same table, at which there were
two strange gentlemen. At a table near
by were several members of the Hilton
family.
“Mrs. Henry Hilton, I am informed, is
"ins'anely jealOus of her husband. I do not
know Mr. Henry Hilton. I .never spoke a.
word to Mr. Henry Hilton or he to me. I
am told that Mrs. Hilton confounded me
with some other woman.
came into the room and charged that our
old 'friend and I were not entitled to re-
"spect. I was subsequently informed that
she acted likea crazy woman and used
some very violent language._ Mr. Fred
Hilton spoke up and said that-he knew“
thatI was a. Iady and more of one than
his sister-in-law. She made a number of
charges against me and said that she knew
enough to hang mo 'and insisted that I be

W111 Sue 'for Heavy Damages.
“My sister and I were members of .a
partyl of eight. .which’ visited the Hilton
boa ouse. Mr. Lester was in the party,
and he ordered some champagne. 5 We
drank one glass and ate some crackers
There' is a register kept at the boathouse,
to which I publicly attached my name.
Mrs. Hilton saw our names some days
afterward, and she charged that we were
parties who had trespassed upon her prop-
erty at; the bbathouise; Of course such a
statement was ridiculous. Mr. Lester, the
manager, acted very nicely, and of course
knew that I had been outrageously treated.
“A few days after this I and my sister
left of gourown volition and went to the
United States hotel. If Mrs. Hilton has
so far forgotten herself and her sex as to
associate my name with her husband’s or
any other man’s, I owe it to my family .
and myself to bring her speedily to time in
a. court of justice. Immediatelyafter Mrs.
Hilton’s conduct was called to my atten-
tion my sister and I consulted our friend,
Mr. Hummel, but as the matter was the
empty yapOriug's of an envious woman’s
tongueWe concluded that it was better to ‘ " '
let it subside. She seems now, however, to
invite a contest, and notwithstanding the
Hilton millions I am prepared to make
her publicly retract her statements, and
have directed Mr. Hummel to immediately
bring an action against her for heavy dam-
ages for defamation of my character. ”
