EHen Mackay, daughter ?f Clar
ence H. Mackay, beau of the Postal
Telegraph and Cable Company,
startled society by suddenly becom
ing the bride ef Irving Berlin, boo*
writer, last week.
?X : ?; " 'U ?" ;
No doubt it will interest the reader
to know that the song hits we have
all been singing for the last year
were factors in this unique courtship.
Irving Berlin, a Jewish immigrant
boy from Russia; a beer waiter in
"Nigger Mike's" place on the Bowery,
later one of the first cabaret enter
tainers there ? but today worth a mil
lion or two and without doubt Amer
ica's premier popular song genius,
had many obstacles to overcome in
marrying Ellin Mackay, daughter of
one of America's proudest and wealth
iest families. He was opposed to the
very end by the fathef, i Clarence
Mackay ? and as this is written ? is
still unforgiven.
But love?and Berlin's harmony
won the maiden's heart after 'more
than two years of conquest; fir?:,
Berlin wrote: f
"All Alone, I'm so all alone ?
There is no one else but you. All
alone by the telephone. Waiting for
a ring, a ting-a-ling. I'm all alone
every evening. All alone, feeling
blue. Wond'iing where you are ? and
how %\ uu are ? :'.r.d !f you are ? all
alone too.
Then Miss ? Mackay sailed for
Europe? -trying" to please dad? and
Berlin's song appeared:
"What'll 1 do ? when >uu ? are far
away ? and 'f am feeling
Miss Mackay returned f om Europe
? and another Berlin svng appeared.
'The popular, "Remember? have you
forgot to remember."
She had not ? the Catholic girl
married the Jewish boy last week.
What will Berlin's next song hit
be ?

have gone to Florida, and his father,
C. L. Gilbert, of Darlington, believes
he will be found in the vicinity of
Tampa, where he has several close
friends. Officials of the company
for which he was paymaster, declared
they cannot account for his disap

Two in Arkansas
Little Rock, Ark., Jan. 8. ? The state
of Arkansas exacted the toll of two
lives for prarder at daybreak tbis
morning #ben Tyrus Clark, 28, Sul
phur Springs bank robber and slayer
of L. M. Stout, banker, and Aaron
Harris, negro slayer of Deputy Sher
iff Scott Streeter, of AshleV County,
were executed in the electric chair.
Until the very last efforts were
made to secur a reprieve for Clark.
His brother, Ray Clark, of Dugger,
Ind., arrived here late yesterday an4
unsuccessfully sought clemency f^om
( Governor Tom Terrill.
| Ray Clark went from the governor's
i office to his brother's death cell, and
| their meeting was the occasion for
the first break in Tyrus Clark's com4
j posure.
|c Tyrus Clark* was convicted of the
t murder of L. M. Stout, banker and
merchant of Sulphur Springs last
June. Clark, aged 28, was a member
of the Burchfield band of bank band
' its. Other members of the bandit
gang who, with Clark, raided the
bank at Sulphur Springs and terror
ized the town, are now serving long
terms on the state prison farm.
Clark always contended that the
others "framed up" on him by mak
ing him seem responsible for firing
J the shot that killed Stout.
J Clark, a World War veteran, car
ried his fight to the Arkansas
i supreme court and repeated efforts
were made to have Governor Terrill
show clemency. At a public hearing
; on Clark's behalf last Wednesday,
however, the widow of the slain bank
; er and her seventeen-year-old son
i strongly opposed the petitioti for com
' mutation.
