At the close Of business last night Messrs

Mr.. Louis Goldsmith, who has been in
their employ for the past twenty-five years,
and after complimenting him on his loyalty,
zeal and integrity, and commencing him
for his faithfulness in their behalf, during
the many years he has been with them, and
as a token Of their esteem, friendship and
appreciation, they presented him with a
beautiful 33d degree Masonic charm.

he could wear this with pride and honor.
as he well deserved 1t.
Mr.. Goldsmith was so much taken by sur
prise that he could scarcely reply to this
recognition of the firm. but made it under
stood that whatever his efforts had been
In the past twenty-five years, they would, II
possible. be doubled in the future; that q
reward OF this kind would scarcely go by
unheeded. and that during the many years
Of their association his treatment by the
firm had been Of the very best. and what
ever effort he had put forth was prompted
by the desire to be loyal to the firm who
had always been good and faithful to him.

NELLIE NORMAN'S ROMANCE
st. Louis Suicide Was Daughter of Wealthy
California Parents.
Contracted an Unfortunate Marriage
an Artists Model of Note.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, October 13.-Nellie Nor
man. the pretty acknowledgement girl
who committed suicide here yesterday by
taking desc of carbolic acid, was Nellie
Anderson, a former belle of Fresno, CaI
whose father is one Of the wealthiest men
living there.
Her story is most romantic and in
some respects unusual one Several years
ago she ran away with and married against
the wishes of her parents Matt Mitvowich
one OF her fathers gardeners. They went
to Stockton. where her father found them.
he took the blow as philosophically as
possible and set his son-in-law up in busi-
ness. Two weeks later he heard that his
daughter had left her husband and gone
east.
1t became known afterward from a let
ter sent by Nellie to her mother that she
had gone to Chicago, where she got employ
ment in cloak house. This she left some
time afterward because of an insul; Of
fered by her employer. Miss Nellie then
became an artists model, and as such she
was in great demand because of her beauty.
She posed for one artist, the acceptance
of whose medallion over that of other
artists, undoubtedly superior, caused a lot
of trouble in the worlds fair board. 1t
was while posing for artists that the girl
maintained she was ruined. Then she
changed her name to Nellie Norman.
Boyle, the sculptor, whose works of art
on the transportation building of the
worlds fair are we'll remembered, had been
searching in vain for a suitable model for
one of the figures in this group "Naviga-
ton." He finally selected Nellie Norman,
VINO became famous as a model Her b.
hemian life, however, was too much for
her, and in six months the form over which
artists had raved was gone and her beauty
faded. Becoming sick and discouraged she
finally decided to end the struggle by
death,

KILLED IN PRIZE FIGHT
Jack Cummings Dies From Punishment Re-
ceived in the Ring.
His Opponent Was Walter Griffin In q
BOXING Hotft at New or'ean.
Last Night.

NEW ORLEANS, La. October 13.-Jack
Cummings, a local pugilist, died here this
me rning as the result Of punishment re-
ceiI ed in a bout with Walter Griffin.
The new Tulane Athletic Club was opened
last night with q big benefit for the in
digent yellow fever patients and families
In the city. An attractive program, includ-
ing boxing bouts, was arranged. Among
the latter was contest between Cum
mings and Griffin. Both are local men and
both had been training to fight for some
tine. There was much interest In the con-
test and large crowd was on hand. Prof.
Duffy was the referee
The fight was of the whirlwind order from
start to finish and both men gave and re-
ceived much punishment. Each was fairly
clever. ..,r.
Both Fighters Exhausted.
Fifteen rounds were fought, but before
the end Of that time both of the fighters
were in an apparent state of exhaustion
and physicians and others had made eff
fcrts prior to the fifteenth round to bring
the battle to a close
In the fifteenth round Griffin hit Cum
mings hard punch and the latter sank to
the floor, not from the effects of the blow,
but from lack of vitality. He was picked
up and carried to his corner and then to
his dressing room. He complained that his
head hurt, and asked that he be laid on
his stomach. He soon became uncon-
scious. Physicians were summoned and
made an examination of the man.
DR.. Bloom of the Charity Hospital pro-
Eounced his injuries fatal, saying he was
suffering from hemorrhage of the brain.
and possibly conclusion.
An ambulance was called and he was
taken to the Hotel Dieu. The best of at
tention was given him, but at 4:15 am. he
died. Griffin had also been badly punished
and was taken to his home.
Pol1cemen were sent to watch by Griffin s
bedside
Griffin Placed Under Arrest.
When Cummings death was announced
Griffin was placed under arrest, but was
not able to be moved. Cummings was a
motorman and Griffin the son of a police
officer. The former had been married but
seven months. The fatal termination of
the fight may have an effect on the scheme
TO revive boxing contests, and may prevent
the Northumberland fight on Monday
night next.
During the forenoon today Griffin had re-
covered sufficiently to warrant his re-
moval to court.

In the United States Supreme Court yes
terday Attorney Ger eral Terrell of Georgia
submitted motion for an advance upon
the docket of the case of Elizabeth Mobiles,
under sentence of death from the Georgia
state courts for the murder of her husband.
The case was brought to the federal courts
through the plea that Mrs. Mobiles is insane.
The court set the case of Mccullough
against the state of Virginia for hearing
the first Monday in January. The case
deals with the validity of the coupon con-
tracts of the state in the bond issues Of
1871 and 1879.
The case of Herman Keck, the Cincin-
natl jeweler, accused of smuggling dia-
monds into the United States, was reas-
signed to be heard the first Monday in jan

Attorney General Crane entered a motion
to advance the cases of the state of Texas
against the Houston and Texas Railroad
Company and the Galveston, Harrisburg
and San Antonio Railway Company. The

PAIR OF GLASSES.
Did Not Get Back Those H
Left.


Isaac Alexander, a man probably ninety
years of age, was today sentenced by Judge
Kin,ball to make restitution of pair Of
gold glasses to William /. Smith or pay Mr..
Smith Sc. and failing to do either. to go to
JAIL After imposing the sentence Judge
Kimball released Mr.. Alexander on his per-
sonal bond to get the money and pay the
same to the proper person this afternoon,
otherwise to undergo Imprisonment
The testimony showed that a few days
ago Mr.. William /. Smith took a pair of
glasses which cost s14. but which were
Alexander to get them mended, and that
when he went to get them Mr.. Alexander
gave him another pair.
Henry S. Maple testified that some years
ago he took a gold watch valued at s215 to
Mr.. Alexander to get it mended, and that
the latter tried to make him take a silver
watch in its place, claiming that Mr..
Maple did not leave the watch he claimed
to have left. After many attempts to get
his watch Wapie threatened to have Alex
ander arrested, whereupon Alexander pro-
duced the right watch
Mr.. Maple further stated that afterward
he rented store to Mr.. Alexander and
that within short time at least 100 per-
sons to his knowledge charged him with
substituting inferior goods for articles left
by them with him to mend.
Mr.. Alexander testified in his own defense
that he had been in business for sixty
years-fifty of them in Washington-and de-
nied the charge upon which he was tried
and also those made by Mr.. Waple: that
he is worth at least $4,000. and conse-
Quently had no cause to do anything wrong.
Judge kimball said it was evident that
Mr.. Alexander had not returned to Mr..
Smith the glasses proven to have been left
with Mr.. Alexander, and took the action
above stated.
