"It's all such a big surprise te me," l .,e said, "that I haven't nulte come te. Seme of the ether girls looked much better than I. I never use the word pretty In speaking of myself because I knew it doesn't belong." "Miss Philadelphia" was speaking In sincere tones. There was no Indication that she wanted any one te disagree. Is "Style" Real "Beauty?" "My work requires much nttcntlen," she said, "nnd that's why I leek nt everything from the practical side.

Till; JOB YOU AUK f.OOKINCI FOR MAY be found In ttie Help Wanted columns en f EVENING' PUBLIC SEEK NEW MOTIVE FOR BERGEN DEATH Cllne Appeared Worried at Party Where He Danced With Beautiful Clrl UNWRITTEN LAW DEFENSE New Yerk, Sept. 1. White Geerge A. Cllne is preparing in his prison cell te plead Justifiable homicide en the strength' of the unwritten law, whereby It Is "universally recognized that n man Is given the right te protect his wife nnd children nt all times," Prese cutlng Attorney A. C. Hart Is working en the theory that the motives which caused him te sheet Jack Bergen In his home at Edgewater, N. J., last Friday night are mere complex than rage and jealousy ever the film actor's relations with his wife. In another cell In the Hackensack Jail, distantly removed from his hrether-in-Iaw, Is Charles Scullion, the twenty-one-year-old brother of Mrs. Clfne, who was arrested yesterday by the Edgewater police, taken te Hacken Mck and charged with murder. Mnce the night of the crime he hns told four different stories of what occurred in the Cllne home before Bergen rceled out mortally wounded. Mere arrests are expected, although the prosecutor said he did net contemplate any ether moves within the next week. As for the possibility- of the motive becoming ns diversified as the stories or wnet Happened in the C ne house. Mr. Hart merely says thnt the latest reports from his Investigators force him te wonder why, if Bergen's affair with Mrs. Cllne wns the motive for the sheeting, Cllne waited se long. "This much I mny tell you," said Mr. Hart, "whatever the true motive was, certainly It wns aided and abetted hy a desire te make a display of bra vado, the presence of a geed audience nnd the fact that Cllne had repeatedly been urged te de something." Yeung Scullion wns very nearly proa prea proa tretcd by his arrest. He was locked up in a cell far away from that occupied by Cllne. Even his sister, the alleged mur derer's wife, was net permitted te see him. It was no comfort te him that Clinc's lawyer, Wlillnm M. Maekey, issued n statement saying thnt the defense would be based upon "the unwritten law, which includes self-defense nnd justi justi fiable homicide," which, according te the statement, "has been recognized in this and ether countries." One of the most romantic sidelights en the killing wns reported te Mr. Hart hy the detectives. It Is real movie stuff. Seme time age there was a party given by nn association of assistant movie directors nnd location men. Cllne, being prominent in the lntter class, was noticeably present. He danced several times with a young woman who is cele brated for her gentle beauty nnd her harsh tongue. Cllne appeared te be enjoying him self. Nene of these who attended the nffalr can recall thnt he looked worried until along about the clese of the party. But early In the evening, while dancing with the bitter beautv. he wns nskeil by her: "What's worrying you?" "Nothing's worrying me," Cllne re piled. "Oh. I thought there was." "What made you think se?" "Oh, nothing. Let's forcer It. T i merely thought you had heard . But ! as I said, let's forget it." ' Naturally Clinc's curiosity wns ' nreused. He Insisted upon being told I what It was she thought he had heard. ! It was tee easy. The girl led him en 1 until he all but shook the sterv out- of I tier, eventually sne tern mm a brand- new story of liaison between his wife and Bergen. Bergen was at the party. Just what happened nfter the girl had inflnmel Cline with her tnle-hj?aring is a trifle vague, But It is agreed that there was n scene in which Cline drew his re- velver and mode sundry threats. There ! wns no snoeting. Tlie full story prob preb ably will be told at the trial. Thn only statement coming from the ! Cllne-Sculllen side of the nffnlr was! that made by Mr. Maekey, which reads In part: "It is apparent te me from what I have already ascertained thnt decensed took advantage of n situation nt a time when Mr. Cllne had plnccd implicit con fidence In him and naturally expected It would net be violated. It is universally recognized thnt a man is given the right te protect his wife and children nt all times. "The relationship of man and wife Is ene of the most sacred, solemn and binding contracts In the eyes of the Creater. The law giving every man nnd woman the right te protect the home and fireside should he Inviolate. In many cefcs the unwritten law, which Includes self-defense nnd justifiable homicide, has been recognized in this nnd ether countries."

CARUSO Plan te Contest Will, Alleging Undue Influence by His Adopted Daughter WIDOW IS IN SANITARIUM New Yerli, Sept. 1. While awaiting n cablegram from Mrs. Enrice Caruso, who Is In Europe, her four brothers nnd sisters yesterday revealed some of the evidence upon which they hope te break -the will of their father, the late Park Benjamin, and obtain their share of the half-million-dollar estate which he willed te an adopted daughter, Miss Anna Belchl. Park Bcnjnmln, Jr., eldest of the five children whom the former naval expert and natent atternev cut off with a dollar each, en the ground that they had failed te show him the proper re spect and devotion, announced that they had united In a plan of action which, with the consent of Mrs. Caruso, would result in a formal pretest against pro bate of the will and legal steps te have It set aside. They have until November 11 te take such steps, Mr. Benjamin declared. The widow of the senter Benjamin, who, for twelve years, has been a pntlent nt a privnte sanatorium nt Geshen, N. Y., figured in documentary evidence, which the son displayed yesterday. With ether evidence, it provided three points en which the will may be con tested, he asserted. The children expect te show, he said, that their conduct has never justified the father In cutting them off with a dollar each; that In making Miss Bolchi heir te his fortune he was unduly In fluenced by her; nnd that since her ndvent into the Benjamin family cir cle, the father had cruelly neglected his Invalid wife. According te the terms of the Will, Miss Bolchi is te receive $00,000 of the estate and all of the late Mr. Ben jamin's personal effects, including his home. The remainder of the cstnte is te go te the Invalid widow, reverting, upon her death, te the adopted daughter. Dorethy's marriage te Enrice Caruso enraged the father, and Caruso, in turn, came te the aid of the invalid mother, paid off her debt at the sanatorium nnd maintained her there until his death, according te Mr. Benjamin, Jr. Mean time, it Is nlleged, her sons nnd dauch- ters, Including Caruso, visited her often, but her husband never. te his former housekeeper, Miss Gcr iruue x. rericr.
