Her Conduct Had Been Errstie.
The suicide OF Miss Maria BardveIl who
shot herself on Tuesday night at the United
States Hotel seems little OF mystery in view
OF the statements made yesterday by her uncle.
Henry BardwelL OF 212 Church street. and Mira
Elizabeth Murray Of 253 Eighth avenue. with
whom she had been living. Miss Bardwell was
estranged from her family and had lived
alone in New York for four years The
uncle said that she was wllful and high strung
and attributed her suicide to insanity. Her
relatives In Boston also think that she was
out OF her mind and say that her conduct dur
ing the past two years was erratic. She re-
ceiyed modest income from her fathers estate
that she needed money: Her estran gem ent from

and two weeks ago she went to Boston In the

reconciliation was effected.
Her suicide was premedtated. She left in

est approach to the confirmation OF the rti-
mors comes from = friend OF BENJAMIN, Bates
Bardwell. the girls twin brother. who 10 said
to have conflded the secret to him some time
ago. All her friends and relations here deny
that she had any financial trouble. and say
that she was insane.
"Iknow perfectly WELL and 50 does every
other member OF the family that my sister
was out OF her mind when she committed that
deed" said her brother Francis. '.All who
have seen her in the past few weeks have no.
ticed a strangeness about her. Two years ago
she had a severe attack OF typhoid fever. and
since that time she has not been herself.
This talk about financial troubles leading
to her death is absurd. She had all the money
she needed. She had property held in trust for
her which was sufficient for all her needs. and
no matter in what trou ples her brothers might
become involved they could not affect her or
her property in any way"

eff by any chance one of our Arizona
Indians should go into barber shop

run out of the shop when he discovered
the BARRIERS way OF dressing hair"
said an ArizOnian. THE Indians out
there, both men and women, are very
fond of a shampoo, but don't believe
their way will ever become popular
among white folks. Both sexes wear
their hair long, reaching nearly to tie
waist, and cut square across. Now
they wouldn't think of such thing as
touching those raven locks of theirs
with a brush or comb. When the Arr
zona Indian feels that his hair want
doing up he makes a thick paste of the
adobe soil and water He winds his
hair tightly about his head and s1nears
it from his forehead to the back of his
neck with a plentiful supply of the
paste, SO that his head looks as if it
were in a plaster mold, for the clay is
gray and sticky. He let's the adobe
cast get perfectly dry, and then cracks
it off his hair, which comes from under
this novel shampoo clean, smooth and
glossy. rnhe women dress their hair in
the same way"

A Peruvian Drink.

Italia is Peruvian drink widely
known in civilized South America, sold
to some extent in Europe, but seldom
seen in the United States. It is a col
orless and very strong brandy, dis
titled from white grape. 1t has de-
cidedly fruity taste, and is so hot that
persons unaccustomed to it mix it half
and half with cream of cocoa and drink
the compound as iqueur after coffee
The Peruvians, however, drink Italia
with no drop of allaying water or
sught else to take off its edge.
