Boiled White Shirt Still Has Part Human T ragedy New York Woman Uses* T his Sensational !Vlt thud of Sending Nnten from Her Apartment (ia^lle to Tell the Public How Her Ilihhand Mi.-treated Her n> KI>XA MARSHALL litil i:?J5 b* T?i* A4*?nrr> New York. Feb. 20.- The im portant part a boiled while shirt may play In human drama ha:' bwn nowly demonstrated. And with that demon.mriuloii coiium proof positive that the roinantir day-, of yore when knight* went ab>Mit looking for nobs of dis tress dropped by fair ladies In cas tles imprisoned are not departed t'jf Rood. .^Seven boiled white shirts thin ini'k have floated from a window the eleventh floor of a fash ionable 72nd street apartment housu begging through notej pinned Inside that gallant knights below should "help! Bring milk or food or any sort of aid" to Mr*. Milton J. Hudlong. voluntary "captive" in her room. The shirts have aimed to save the life of the New York and New port noclety leader who thought she was in mortal danger. And valiant rescuers, in the form of newspaper reporters, and an avid ly curious public, have sought to answer the pleas their hidden notes contained. For seven days Mrs. Jessie Mar garet Uudlong has been barricad ed In her husband's apartment, subsisting solely on water because she feared her heretofore law abiding husband wan suddenly go ing to poison her. The "ogre hus band." so she claims, hus kept her isolated, barred from the company of servants or friends, telephone connections with the outside world cut off, without food ? \cept what his representatives offered ? ? and which she was sure was pois oned ? and finally with the water supply cut off. The boiled shirt taken from the upper drawer of the bureau In hia room where she has been loeked. with a note pinned Inside has been her only medium of seeking help. More numerous thau couljl be counted in several minutes have been the offers of aid from "cour igeous knights" who battled un Ln illngly with detectives hired by ^fllton Rudlong. They had been told to see that hit wife's "cap tivity," opened last Friday when she took possession of his horn-*, was broken bnly by her voluntary emergence. The first note-bearing shirt Ml Friday last, when Mrs. Hudlong told the world that she had occu pied the eleventh flour apartment. And would stay there till the end. to prevent her :iusband"s bring ing suit for separation with the charge she had abandoned his home to live In Newport, and his so escaping alimony. The. second, third and fourth floated lazily to the street car tracks at Lexington Avenue and 74nd atreet. In the early part of the week, walling the captive's loneliness, whence her companion, sent on an errand had not been al lowed to return ? and her fears that the food ofTered her by her husband's representatives was poisoned. The fifth, dropped Wednesday, aaaured the feverish city that If the prisoner came to harm. It #ould not be by her own hand ? but murder, hard and cold. The sixth, which fell with a dull thud late that same afteifloon. by the hand of a practical-Joking detec tive after a strenuous, albeit, vic torious, battle with a gallant newspaper man, begged "Just bring milk." Aftd the seventh, a shlmmery. silky thing, which might have been a nightgown if It hadn't been shirt, told, on an enclosed sheet prom a calendar that Mrp. Hud [ long had succumbed to the human knead for food ? and would open The door of her laolated abode to day. Then In a week or two. :? harassed mere man of a Judge will ba given a simple task.

This explains the naughty wink I the lights gave lasi night at 10. i At ten minutes past 10 the street light* were, rut off for two min utes in order that the radio fans listening in could tell if the street wires were causing the trouble. Then at 10:15 all the lights except the street lights j were rut riff for a brief duration for the same purpose. By this .method of experimenting the I members of the elub were able to gather some most valuable and mysterious data ou the sources of the interference. j At the next meeting of the j club, which will be NMi In the ?

Congresswoman Kahn T o Seek No Special Favors Mrs. Florence halm of California, Who Fills Out Term of I jili- HiikIiuihI, F.xprrts to Flay the Gainr JiihI Like a Man to Frove That a Woman ( Um IIv I-. C. OWKN '? iva San Francisco, F?b. 20. ? ?] When Mrs. Florence I'rag Kahn. newly ~ elect* d con^resswoman from California goes to Wanhing ton I" nerve out the term of Her late husband. Congressman Julius Kahn, who f??r 2f? years served California in the House of Repre sentative*, it will not he with t h ?? intention of Peking any special consideration or favors because of her sex. Mrs. Kahn. if she is nble to car ry out her presrnt intentions, is going to "represent" her Congres sional district in all that the word iniplh'H. Siie is going to be "Colh KCossman" instead of "Congress woman" in everything except tho strict technicalities of gender. She expects to fill her role of national lawmaker Just as do her male conferes. if speeches are n?'C?*sary Mm. Kahn is goin?* to make speeches. On the other hand speeches re maining uneBlh'd for. she if go ing to strletly observe a selMm poB<'d"rub? of Congressional sll encr until she has something "worth while" to *ny. Above nil. with considerable pride in her set. Mrs. Kahn it* go ing to endeavor to prove that wo mankind properly has a pbfr< in political and governmental affairs. Outside of thf fourth Congress ional district of California whleh on Tuesday elected Mrs. Kahn to CongrettB, the Impression may prevail that her election was largely a Bfliiw of sentiment, hi h"r own district. however. no such Idea exlsr*. Last December In the urn'1 dis trict when Congressmen Julius Kahn died after representing the "fourth" continuously In Congress sln*^ it was undoubtedly sympathy and sentiment which prompted the movement to hav his widow serve out his term. Sine then, however, conditions have changed. Strong opponents cani? out against Mrs. Kahn and It wat necrsrary that she put up a real political flght to win. Sh did. Among other things she w< nt out and made a lot of good poli tical epeechee. In them sh ? showed iucf? a comprehensive knowledge of national affaire and of the working* of Congress that the voters forgot about sentiment and voted for her on her merits. Now they ere quite outspokenly expecting big things of her ? :v Uy Th* Adrinr*) 1 among other things that she will ' demonstrate hpriplf to be n real Congresswonju n. Apropos of her own plans In Washington Mrs. Kahn says: "One of the things which I learned during 25 y?*ai? ps tli* wlf? of a Congressman Is not to , Ineet Issues until they come up and not to talk too much, so I am not going to say that I will do any particular thing ? xcept ti? , represent my district the best I um able. Two yen:* hence I ex pect to go before the same voters who elected me thin time and nsk them to re-elect mo solely on my record. "If It la necessary to make speeches in Congress I will do so. Making a speech Jus; hecaur-> I am a woman Isn't going to bother i n?e. Of course my speeches may not be good ones. Tlut they ought to be. I heard so many good speakers and so many poor ones i during the years that my husband i was a Congressman that maylv 1 | can profit hy the fine points and faults of both kinds. "One rule, however, that I am goliuc to carry with me to Wash ington. is. I am not going to talk too much. There have been mem bers of Congress in the past, and probably there are some now. who talk all the time and say nothin - If I hnve something worth while to nay I am going to say It ? oth erwise I am going to hold iny peace. i "Also, If I feel called upon to ' say something. I am going to know the facts before I start. You can't say 'I think' or *1 guess' in Congress and get away with If You mHst he able to say 'I know' and then prove It. "There Is no r? .1son why. Just because l am a woman, that I nhould not make sn efficient mem ber of Congress. In fact there is no good renson why women In g? n< ral ran't do Just as good work ' In politics and public office an ; men. It Is iny belief that women .m women, to be effective In poli tics. must have great numbers f ?r Instance, In Congress If we had enough women members w? might have a women's bloc. Hut lacking enough members for a bloe I propose to do the besfT can. Possibly I may do well enough that other statea mlcht want to have woman OMcreas members too." MkdlSlifc.
