Clash of ' Temperament Is Behind Separation. t hlrnfo Tribune-Omaha Bee Leaaed Wire, New York, Aug. 7. How Geral dine Farrar was tricked into accept ing the summons of the separation suit of her husband, Lou Tellegen, was related tonight. Attorneys for the prize soprano of the Metropolitan Opera company stated last night, when news of the separation became known, that Miss i'arrar had not been served with papers. Attorneys for Tellegen, formerly leading man for Sarah Bernhardt, insisted Miss Farrar had been served. It is said that Miss Farrar was served by a woman process server as her automobile was stopped in front of the once "love nest" of Tellegen and the, opera star. Miss Farrar, taking the "letter" after admitting her identity, dropped it to the floor of the limousine and to the woman process server said with exceeding politeness: "That's very, very nice of you." Friends of Miss Farrar and Mr. Tellegen insisted that there is noth ing more than a clash of tempera ment behind his suit for separation. Charges of Miss Farrar in her prom ised suit for divorce have not yet been disclosed. Tellegen Old-Time Lover. In an interview of May last year, given in the dressing room of a Baltimore theater, where Lou Telle gen was playing, Miss Farrar la mented the fact that the "modern young man and young woman knew so little of the art of, making love," and among other things said: "No, there is no love making now, except for Mr. Tellegen. He is one of the romantic lovers of old time." In an article written for the New York Times Sunday magazine of December 26, 1920, Miss Farrar dis cussed "a great singer's problem in real life and fiction," appropos of the new novel of Zola Forester, entitled, "The Dangerous Inheritance." Among other things, she said: "To my mind, the employment of the singing organ is so delicately ar tificial and overstimulating that the Senate to Take Up Question of Railroads Soon Action Planned Upon Return Of President From Vacation; Douht Regarding Wishes Expressed.

Handicapped by Nature. "That 'genuis is an infinite ca pacity for taking pains' is more than a casual utterance. Nature has so fashioned women that, born with de cided ambitions to encompass a destiny outside the four walls of home, they are always to be handi capped (at' some awkward physical moment or as a result of some emo tional condition) and oftentimes be trayed by themselves, either for their welfare or undoing. "The instinct of motherhood, the thousand and one feminine atavisms, cannot be thrown lightly aside, be cause to the heritage one woman bears in common with her millions of sisters has been added a voice or a definite talent for expression, making her a factor to be reckoned with in addition to the more conven tional problems that confront every member of the feminine gender." In other interviews Miss Farrar's views on men and marriage are re called. Men Like Cakes. "Men are like cakes. The one with the pink icing still in the bot tom of the bag always seems more delectable than the one with green icing out of which we have taken a bite," she said in 1915. "I shall never marry. I never in tended to marry. I am old-fashioned enough to think a woman should be subordinate to her husband and I must have my freedom or I can't work," was her statement in 1912. "One can be a splendid woman and a great artist, but not a great artist and a mother. "There will be one less unhappy marriage if Geraldine Farrar keeps out of it," she predicted August 29, 1915.

It's a Long All But One of Dail Eireann in Ireland Freed British Government to Hold Commander of "Republican Army" Convicted of " Murder. By JOHN STEELE. Chicago Tribune Cubic Copyright, 19U. London, Aug. 7. All but one of the 38 members of Dail Eireann now imprisoned or detained in British internment camps in Ireland and England, will have been released by tomorrow morning, according to of ficial announcement from the Irish office today. The sole exception is John J. Mc Keown, a commander in the "Irish republican army," who has been con victed of the murder of District In spector McGrath. Today's announcement followed a statement yesterday from Dublin castle to the effect that the govern ment had decided to release the cap tives, except McKeown, in order that they might first consult with their colleagues and then attend the meet ing of Dail Eireann in Dublin on August 16, called by Eamonn de Valera for the purpose of framing a reply to Lloyd George's peace pro posal. The fact that McKeown will not be given liberty has created much concern among the Sinn Fein lead ers, reports from Dublin say, and it is expected that a protest will be for warded to Downing street. One of Mr. De Valera's colleagues declared today that such action was "contrary to the spirit of the truce and will cause bad feeling, as it is indefensible." The civil authorities ' at Dublin were given added power yesterday when it was announced that in fu ture, inquests by the civil coroner would be permitted. Since the open ing of martial law, all inquests have been conducted by the military. It can be stated as positive, ac cording to a government official, that informal negotiations between Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier, and Eamonn de Valera, looking to a settlement of differences between north and south Ireland, have been going on ever since the two leaders returned to Ireland. While it is declared that no defi nite, scheme for harmony has been arrived at, it is known that certain minor points have been cleared up and it is thought probable that the two negotiators will meet in Lon don shortly after the session cf Dail Eireann and possibly before that meeting. .
