LOOKS LIKE a SUICIDE.
A Wealthy Omaha Merchant Foul
Dead in Chicago.

A Wealthy Omaha Merchant Found
Dead in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 20.-The dead body of
Clark Woodman, one Of the wealthiest
citizens of Omaha, Neb., and an fnfiuen-
tial Director of the Linseed Oil Trust,
was found this afternoon in his room at
the Grand Pacific Hotel. The general
supposition is that it was suicide, but the
cause for such an act is mystery.
Woodman arrived late on Monday
night, and no one had seen him since
that time. Wednesday evening a cham
bermaid entered the room and found him
lying on the bed fully dressed. He was
breathing, and she supposed he was
asleep. The room was not re-entered
until this afternoon. when the dead body
was found. On to BILE were two bottles,
one containing ammonia and the other
spirits of camphor. On a piece of letter
paper was written, Three ounces of
chloroform, one ounce of ammonia" A
stamped and sealed envelope, addressed
II. u. Clark, Omaha" was also on the
table.
Woodman was a member of the grain
commission firm of Woodman &J Harris
of this city. A rumor was current that
Woodman lost large part of his fortune
during the recent excitement on the
Board of Trade, but no confirmation of
this rumor could be obtained. His part
ner, j. T. Harris, said that, except in
company with himself, Woodman never
visited the Board, and that he did moth
ing outside of the regular work of the
firm. Strangely enough, however, Har-
rts did not know that Woodman was in
the city until he learned of his death. He
could imagine no possible reason for the
suicide, if that was the cause of his death
Woodman's friends are inclined to the
belief that death resulted from heart fail
ure. The letter to Mr.. Clark, at Omaha,
may explain the mystery, if it was sui

Dunning and Wall Before Judge Crs

Dunn1n& ana wall Before Judge Cra-
yens Yesterday.
The cases of John Wall and Frank
Dunning, charged with battery, required
the attention of Judge Cravens yesterday
morning for a couple of hours. Each man
figured as a defendant and also as pros
ecuting witness. The trouble occurred at
Third and l. streets, over the possession
of team OF horses. Wall threw Stag at
Dunning and the latter beat Wall with
a shovel. Neither party was injured very
badly.
Elwood Bruner represented Wall and
w. A. Anderson acted as counsel for
Dunning. After hearing the testimony
and the arguments the court discharged
both defendants. He suggested that both
had better settle their difficulties in a
civil court.
w. III. Devine brought suit in the Su-
perior Court yesterday against Constable
Frank Swift to recover the horses, wagon
and harness making up the team which
Wall and Dunning had the fuss over, and
also several other horses. The property
was delivered to Devine by Wall as Sc
curity for an Indebtedness of $780, due
from Wall to Deyine, but had been taken
possession Of by the Constable on an at
tachment suit brought against Wall.

SWEETHEARTDING BY MOONLIGHT
A Few Hints to Our Girls in These
Romantic summer Evenings.

The man in the moon is very lntelll-
gent person, says Ruth Ashmore in the
Ladies' Home Journal. He sees a great
many things that he never tells about;
but, III this gay summer time, won't you
be little careful that when he looks
down on you he will be able to gossip to
the stars and the daily newspapers about
what you are doing, because it is so inno-
cent? Won't you just remember that
just while the moon looks down on you
sailing at night alone with some favored
admirer, he is thinking to himself all the
time 'How foolish that girl is to go out
with just that one man! He cannot talk
to her and manage the boat, too; and
| there is certain to be trouble. Why in the
world did she not have whole party
come out with her!' Now, that is very
wise thought of the gentleman who lives
up in the moon. Then, when he sees you
strolling through the woods o mile from
home, and only one of the most charming
fellows in the world with you; sees you
hunting for wild flowers under his
dim light, and notices the immense
amount of interest you take in each
other, he apparently shrugs his shoulders
and thinks out loud, ''Well, well What
lot of fooliShness there is in girls, any
way. She will catch cold out in the
night air with nothing around her; she
won't find half as many flowers as she
would if my friend, the sun, was shining
bright, and she will probably trip over a
stone or fallen branch. Even if she
wanted to come out just to talk to the
young man she is very foolish, because
he would think she was a great deal more
desirable if she insisted on staying at
home and sitting on the veranda where
all the rest of the people are. He could
talk to her quietly, and he would think
how much nicer it was for her to be
there than to be out rambling in the
woods even with him, for, if she went
with him, it is just possible she might 60
with any other man who asked her."
The man in the moon is very, very wise.
He has looked down upon millions and
billions Of girls, and he knows what he
is talking about, and if you take his adj
hearting that goes on under the moon

The parrot, who had been with him, had
learned some of the sayings Of the sailors.
One evening the Captain invited a friend
to supper, and began talking about where
he had been, to which the parrot re-
piled:
That's lie!'
The Captain was rather cross at this, SC
he covered the cage over. He still kept

losing the heat. Shylock won the first

ond money by finishing second in the
first and third heats. Time, 2:374, 2:4l3
