attempts to hang himself sent bullet
into his own heart The dead are: John
w. Lehman, German, 80 years of age;
Anna Lehman, an infant; Bertha Leh-
man, aged 3 years; Clara Lehman 5years
old.
These little ones were Lehman's own.
He loved them and brooded over the un-
founded fear that some day they would
come 10 want. Besides his wife there
were two other children in the household
hers by former marriage 10
years old, and Minnie, aged H. That

ing. lehman had owned the three. story
br elk house in the lower floor Of which
his family lived. But in January, under
the impulse of moving into the country,
he sold his home. After paying off a
mortgage, which left him 81, 0O0 in money,
Mrs. Lehman repentod of her agreement
to 90 on farm. Sho talked her husband
out of tho scheme, and, being an easy go
ing fellow, he consented to stay in Chi
cago
Accordingly plans were made to move
into fiat ut 81 Groll street, four blocks
east of the home. Mrs. Lehman spent
Tuesday there getting tho first load Of
furniture arranged. The husband got off
duty at o'clock for two hours, and went
home from the car barns to dinner.
Everything was confusion with packing,
and some of the rooms were already bare.
II is supposed the realization of losing
his home without achieving his ambition
for farm came over him with a sting
of disappointment, which drove him to
frenzy.

members of the Spanish American Re-
publican Club.
The principal speaker OF the evening
was Ex-Governor Romualdo Pacheco, who
proceeded TO enlighten his countrym men on
the issues of the campaign. He said:
The fundamental sentiment OF the Re-
publican party is love for our country
our whole country. We are for the Union,
one and undivisible, now and forever.
Our country is confronted by a peril,
not between the North and South, but OF
political nature and one OF the gravest in
its history since 1860. 1t is an attempt by
the Democratic party to paralyze industry
by using all the power of the Government
to take property from the hands OF those
who created it and place it IN the hands OF
those who covet it.
The PROPOSITIONS submitted to the
American people by the convention are
outrageous. The success of the ticket
headed by Mr.. Bryan would be an ire para
bic calamity, not only to our country but
to civilized society everywhere.
K. r. Duckworth, Sylvester Shaben and
James Kidney made short speeches, after
which the meeting was entertained with
music by Professor Luciano Molca and
an orchestra OF mandolins and guitars and
piccolo solo by Marciano Nava.

Mckinley, the Republican candidate for

that started the birds from the trees in the

people waiting to see the sun rise and

his mind was distracted in trying to
follow his remarks, had seized the OPP
portunity and also the machine and was
ut that moment making his way by the
north road towards Interlaken.
Now, capture under these circum-
stances seemed to be deliciously easy.
There were no branching off roads.
The mountains were on one side and the
lake on the other, on neither of which
was bicycling practicable. Therefore
all the two policemen had to do, when
they mounted their machines, was to
ride faster than 1 did and SO overtake
me. AS I had no idea that a race was on,
1 plugged along in a leisurely manner
and would undoubtedly have been
taken near Interlaken if it had not been
for the fact that some years ago COM
pany built funicular railway from
the margin of the lake, mile or so up
to st. Beatenburg. I had lived in st.
Beatenburg once, and l remembered
that the road from there to Interlaken
was good one, so l thought that per-
haps it would not be a bad plan to 60 up
on the railway and coast down to In
terlaken. I knew man who had done
it once. can well believe now that no
one ever tries it the second time. The
car goes up to st. Beatenburg three or
four times day only, but when a
couple of miles away from the landing
l saw a steamer coming in and 1 knew
if reached the landing about the time
she did would get car.
The policemen, it seems, caught sight
of me as 1 was making my squirt, and
they at once put on extra steam, but
there is deep bay just before one
reaches the funicular and they lost
sight of me as I turned the point. /

WOMAN AND HOME.
WHEREIN THEY DIFFER,

How Magazine Writer Compares Man
and His Sisters.
Man is creature of cast-iron habits;
woman adapts herself to circumstances.
This is the foundation of the moral diff
ference between them.
A man does not attempt to drive a
nail unless he has hammer; woman
does not hesitate to utilize anything
from the heel of a boot to the back of
brush.
A man considers corkscrew abso-
lutely necessary to open bottle; a
woman attempts to extract the cork
with the scissors; if she does not sue
coed readily she pushes the cork into
the bottle, since the essential thing is to
get at tn fluid.
Shaving is the only use to which a
man puts razor; a woman employs it
for a chiropodist's purposes.
When man writes, everything must
be in apple-pie order; pen, paper and
ink must be just SO, and profound 81
lence must reign when he performs this
important function. A woman gets any
sort of paper, tears it, perhaps, from Al
book or portfolio, sharpens pencil
with a scissors, puts the paper on an old
atlas, crosses her feet, balances herself
on her chair and confides her thoughts
to paper, changing from pencil to pen
and vice versa from time to time, nor
does she care if the children romp or the
cook comes to speak to her.
A man storms if the blotting paper Is
not conveniently near; a woman dries
the ink by blowing on it, waving the
paper in the air or holding it near a
lamp or fire.
A man drops letter unhesitatingly
in the box; a woman rereads the adj
dress, assures herself that the envelope
is sealed, the stamp secure, and then
throws it violently into the box.
For man "good-by" signifies the end
of conversation and the moment of his
departure; for q woman it is just the
beginning of a new chapter, for it is
just when they are taking leave of each
other that women think of the most i'm
portant topics of conversation.
A woman ransacks her brain trying
to mend broken object; man puts it
aside and forgets that for which there
is no remedy.
