Kahn, the attractive wife of a wealthy fur Importer, took the wit ness stand before Justice CQhalan and a jury in the Supreme Court yester day and. admitted that Philip Gold ston, a cloak and suit dealer at 136 Madison avenue, had won her love, it took the talesmen just five'minutes to return a verdict for $50,000 in favor of her husband. This was the full amount he asked in his suit for alienation of affections. Both Kahn and his wife, who was Miss Rose' Trimble before her mar riage and who was known to cloak and suit buyers from Bangor, Me., to Lake Charles. La., as "the most beautiful salesgirl in the world" wept as they told their stories. But they left the court room smiling happily, not only because of the verdict but because they are fully reconciled now arid know that never, never again Can even the most engaging cloak and suit merchant come between them. Once in a lifetime is plenty often enough for an affair of that sort, they both declare. Kahn told the story of his marri age on January 2, litlO, and °f the ecstatically, happy home life whioh followed. The serpent entered liieir littlte Eden in the person Of Goldston on August 16, 1916, he said. The cloak man induced Mrs. Kahn to leave her home, and it was not until Septem ber, so her husband testified, that he was able to "win her back." Mrs. Kalin said between sobs that she "unwillingly'' allowed Goldston's advances. The only ipledge Goldston made before she left her husband, so Mrs. Kahn admitted, was that hp would "take care" of her father and brother. "He said I was made for him," Mrs. Kahn told the court. She then gave details of trips to various fashionable hotels made In Goldston's limousine. She first met him when she went to buy a suit, she testified, it took six or seven fittings before it was satis factory, and by that time the harm had been done. When Goldston was away on busi ness trips he used to write Mrs. Kahn. and here are some of the things he said, according to the let ters read to the jury: "To play with a woman's heart is playing a dangerous game. A vain flirtatious woman is like a thief who breaks Into the temple of a man's soul and steals the golden vessels of his belief In womanhood. Such van dals make all women seem unloyal and untrue. They shatter the ideals that most men still possess, no mat ter how worldly they are. Destroy this leitter —safety first!" it con cluded. Another time the cloak dealer wrote: "I have always thought that God could forgive a woman who sins for love. • • * I may seem con ceited, but more women run after me than 1 run after. A man with a reputation for being fast and a heart breaker has n better chance with ; Plasterers are at work on the 1 third and fourth floors. The granite , and terra cotta to complete Ihe building, is on the' ground and the ' granite work will be completed in another week, the contractors say. MAJOR LUFBERY TEUTON VICTIM MAJOR. RAOUV LUFBERY Most famous of American avia tors was Major Raol Lufbery, whose death in an aerial encounter to-day was recorded from France. Major Lufbery had seventeen victims to his credits and was famous among the aerial aces of France. women * * * A man who pos sesses the finest diamond In the world does not •covet jewelry. "This is a letter from a man hope lessly in love with a woman. I think it amuses you to set men's hearts on fire and then, at a safe distance, watch the flames. • • • When a woman tells you the. reason why she loves a man she doesn't love him." As they left the courthouse Kahn said he and his wife had "started in life all over again." NATION'S CROPS DOING WELL Weather Favorable for the Development of Winter Wheat; Kansas Smiles Washington, May 16.—Following is the weather . bureau's bulletin on ci op conditions throughout the Unit ed States the past week: The weather continues generally favorable for the development of winter wheat, and the crop is making excellent progress in all of the prin cipal producing areas. The week was exceptionally favorable in Kansas, thpre being plenty of sunshine and sufficient moisture for rapid devel opment. Wheat is jointing generally in that state and heading in the southeastern portion: it is also head ing nicely in Oklahoma. The crop continues in. excellent condition in Missouri, and is improving in Arkan sas. East of the Mississippi, wheat continues good to excellent. The seeding of oats was well ad vanced or completed at the close of the week in all of the northern bor der states and also in the higher elevations of the Rocky Mountain districts. The warm weather of the past week in the more northern sec tions east of the Rocky Mountains was very beneficial for germination and vigorous growth of the plants already up. The seeding of spring wheat has been completed in North Dakota and is nearly finished in Montana and the central Rocky Mountain districts. The seed has germinated well, gener ally, and that already up has grown and rooted nicely, except on light soil in the far northwest, where moisture continues deficient. The outlook for rye continues promising, the crop having made sat isfactory progress during the weej< in practically all districts where grown. The seeding of barley was about, completed in the more north ern states. Weather conditions were favor able for farm work in nearly all sections of the country. Planting of spring grains is nearly completed. Preparation of the ground for corn was going on during the week near ly to the northern limits of the coun try. The soil is generally in excellent condition, and the work of planting will go on rapidly in the important corn-growing districts. The first of the week was too cool for corn in the southern states, but with the warmer weather of the latter part of the week the condition of this crop was much improved. Cotton was unfavorably affected during the first part of the week by generally cool weather in the central and eastern portions of the belt and by cool and wet weather in much of Texas. The temperature at the close of the week, however, was more fav orable. The crop is fair to good in the southern portion of Texas, but the plants are small and the stand poor in the northern portion. The soil is 100 wet for cultivation, al though chopping is under way to the central poftion of the state. Early cotton is reported a complete failure in Arkansas, but the late planted is coming up well. Late planting is be ing completed in Louisiana, but cool nights caused slow growth, as well as in the states to the eastward. Some improvement is reported from portions of Mississippi, but in Ala bama and Georgia considerable cot ton has died, and much replanting has been necessary. CLEAR AWAY WRECKAGE The wreckage occasioned Saturday night when seven coalcars were de railed on the Philadelphia and Head ing railroad at the P. H. and P. Junc tion has been cleaned up. Two hun dred feet of track were torn up when the cars were derailed.

The Colonial Theater's big attrac tion to-day and to-morrow is Eliza . .. „. . beth Risdon in I Elizabeth Rindon "Mother," a n j til "Mother" adaptation front , .. ... the famous novel of the same title. The story has many times been described as "the sweetest ever told." and it has many times been as such, for it tells of the fullness of a mother's love and again brings home to the man and woman the fact that the best and truest friend on earth is a mother. Critics say that in hands of less capable than Miss Risdon's, the char acter of "mother" would lose much of its beauty aid charm, but this brings out the beauty of the part. | An old-fashioned, one-ring circus, one of the kind thai were popular in the day of our "The Biggest grand fathers. Show On Earth" when the clown nt the Regent and ringmaster were supreme, is the big feature of "The Biggest Show On Earth," with Enid Bennett as the leading figure, which is shown at the Regent Theater to-day and to-mor row. Miss Bennett has the role of Roxie Kemp, a showgirl, whose act is to face several lions, in their cage. She quits j the circus when she is 17 and enters a girl's academy, where she has many interesting adventures, including the saving of a girl chum from the fangs of a dog, which she masters by the force of her glance. There is a love story, in which Itoxie and her sweet heart are the chief figures Roxie is opposed by the aristocratic mother of her fiance, who regards circus folk with supreme contempt, until her hus band, a proud colonel, confesses that he owns part of a circus and hints that if Roxie isn't good enough for his son, he (the colonel) isn't good enough for the proud mother. After Roxie risks her life to save her father's circus from a mob, she is ac cepted and finds happiness. "True Blue" will play at the Vic toria Theater for two days, to-day and to-morrow.
