Chinese Girls and Matrimonv.

English and American girls occasionally
commit suicide through disappointment at
not getting married; but 1t will surprise them
TO learn that the Chinese young ladies have
such dread of the matrimonial chain that
they frequently prefer death 20 marriage.
''Of all people," said Confucius. women are
the most difficult to manage. II you are IA
Eliliar with them they become forward, and
IL you keep them at a distance they become
discontentedh So many are the disabilities
of married women that many girls prefer
going into Buddhist or Tauist nunneries. or
even committing suicide, to trusting their
future TO men Of whom they can know moth
ing but from the interested reports of the 20
betweens.

from Ripon, Wis, says: The following
was found written on the wall at Central

DON M. DICKINSON ILL,

NEW YORK, Nov. H. Ex-Postmaster
General Don Dickinson. of Michigan, is
confined to his bed at the motel of his
brother at Bay Ridge, L. l. He had ar
ranged to leave New York for Washington
on Tuesday last. At that time he was in his
usual health, save that he had slight
cold. During the day, before the time for
leaving had arrived, the symptoms. which
were at first considered trivial. had be-
come serious, and Mr.. Dickinson was
forced to abandon his trip. Convinced
that his condition was likely to become Sc
cious, he consulted physician, under
whose advice he went to the residence of
his brother, A. D. Dickinson. who said
yesterday that the symptoms in Mr.. Dick
inson's case were decidedly pneumonia.
The greatest care is being taken to arrest
the progress of the disease, and the med
ical advisers say that with careful nursing
and perfect rest the patient will soon be in
a convalescent condition

ZOIIJDFC,S VICTIM 9IIRIED

HIAwATHA, Kan, Nov. 11.-Mrs. Henry
Bunck, the victim of Saturdays awful
crime at Everest, was buried yesterday in
the Catholic cemetery of that place, the
funeral being very large.
She was the wife of Henry Bunck, a
a wealthy German farmer, and was beau
tiful and educated. Zoludec, the farm
hand, who murdered her, afterward kill
ing himself, was an exile from Bohemia,
Germany, having left there to escape
punishment for crime committed there
about three years ago. The crime was
premeditated and deliberate, although the
coroner's inquest brought out no reason
why he should have broken up Henry
Bunck's happy family. Liquor was un-
doubtedly the cause of the crime, as he
had been drinking heavily, and, when
drunk, was a perfect demon. He was
buried about 3 o'clock this morning, in
the Potter's field, as suicides can not be
buried in Catholic cemeteries.

to attend Patrick O'Sullivan at various
times during two or three years until a
year ago. The fees for these services dur
ing the entire period of three or four years
amounted to less than SO.
Norris, friend of DR.. Cronin, was
called and testified that shortly after the
disappearance of DR.. Cronin he was talk
ing with Dennis Ward in the presence of
Defendant Beggs about the case: Said
he: Mr. Ward and l were talking
about the disappearance of DR.. Cronin
and Ward made use of the remark that
the fellow had gone off on spree with
women and will turn up all right got
mad at his speaking SO unexpectedly of
the doctor. and said somewhat emphatic
ally, He was murdered, and by people in
this city, Beggs said: Oh, you are not
posted; we are in the inner circle and
know what we are talking about"
Michael Gilbert, sewer cleaner, was the
next witness. He described in detail the
finding of DR.. Cronin's clothes, his box of
spiints and his medical case, while clean
ing sewer in Lakeview on Friday last.
The articles mentioned were then
brought into court and witness identified
them as the ones found by him and his
assistants.
Mrs. Conkling, at whose house DR..
Cronin lived, was called and identified the
clothes as those worn by DR.. Cronin on the
night when he left her house for the last
time She also identified the other artl-
cles, including the box of spllnts and the
case of surgical instruments as having
been taken by DR.. Cronin on that occa-
sion.
The court then adjourned until tomor-
row.
