Louis Charron, aged fifty, and n
bachelor, was long reputed to be a
miser. Fear of thieves induced him
to bury his treasure in various parts
of his garden. Recently his mind be-
gan to give way, and he could no
longer remember where he had hid
den his wealth.
The idea finally possessed his mind
that his money had been stolen. He
started frantically to search for 1t,
and being unable to discover any of
the boards. decided to commit suicide
He made his will, explaining his mo-
tive for the act.
Then, digging n grave -four metres
deep in his garden, he took his gun
and leaning over tho edge blew his
brains out. the body rdlling into the
grave. where it was discovered some
hours later.-New York Herald.

TURKEY PAYS UP AT LAST

Losses Suffered by American Mission.
aries in Armenia-Had Been Pending
For Over a Decade.
Washington, d. C.-The State De-
partment has received the amount of
the American indemnity claim against
T~urkey-S95, 0o0-through the Amer.
lean Legation at Constantinople.
The money was paid by the Turkish
Government to Mr.. Lelshman, the
United States Minister at CONSTANT
nople. 1t was placed by him in the
Ottoman Imperial Bank. and drafts
were RENTED for the amount. These
TRAITS have just reached Washington.
AS Is usually the case, the claims in
no aggregate considerably exceed the
amount of the indemnity actually paid.
but the United States Government
has expressed itself satisfied with the
payment. 1t assumes full RESPONSE
bility for the distribution, the Turkish
Government paying down n lump sum.
and leaving 1t to the State Department
to distribute among the claimants at
IS discretion and after its own fashion.
1t Is stated that as soon as the de-
partment officials can prepare their
lists, they will communicate directly
with the claimants.
The claims are principally based
upon losses suffered by American mis-
sionary aud educational institutions in
Turkey, notably those Mt Harput and
Marash, but there are u number of
individual claims. such. for instance,
rs that of the family of the unfOrtun-
ate bicyclist LEM, the Pittsburg man,
who was killed by Turkish soldiers
while attempting to go around the
globe on his wheel.
The State Department officials feel
the greatest satisfaction at the settle
ment of the claims, Secretary Hay
has been told by diplomats skilled in
the ways of Oriental diplomacy, that
he never would be able to collect them.
Not only was there extreme difficulty
In bringing any pressure to bear on
Turkey, but the United States had to
contend with the jealousy of the great
European powers. most of whom have
claims against Turkey vastly larger in
moun than Americas, and the total
of which is beyond the ability of the
Turkish Government to meet.
For more than n decade the Amer
lean claims have been pending. Min

HEAT DAMAGES THE CROPS.
Corn Injured in Northwestern States by
Drying Winds and Hot Weather.

Washington. d. C.-The Weather
Bureaus weekly summary Of crop con-
ditions is as follows:
The northern and central districts
east of the Rocky Mountains have ex-
perienced two consecutive weeks of
intense heat. From Texas northward
to Nebraska, including Missouri, Ar
kansas and portions of Illinois, Ken
lucky and Tennessee, crops have suf-
fered to a greater or less extent. The
weather conditions on the Pacific
coast have been favorable. In Kan
sas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and
Arkansas corn has been seriously
damaged by intense heat and drying
winds, although late corn in Kansas
is in fair condition. The bulk of the
crop in Nebraska and Iowa has so far
escaped injury except in Il few south
western counties in Nebraska. In the
States Of the Ohio Valley corn has
suffered no Injury from heat and has
generally made good growth.
Winter wheat harvest is finished in
Kansas, Missouri and in the lower
Ohio Valley and is in progress in the
more northerly sections. Rains nave
interferred with harvest in portions
of Ohio and West Virginia. Wheat
is ripening in Washington. In the
Dakotas, Minnesota, Oregon and
Washington spring wheat continues
generally in very promising condition,
although areas in Northern Minnesota
have been flooded, and the crop has
suffered from drought in portions of
South Dakota. In Iowa the excessive
heat had probably impaired the quail
ty Of the crop by causing it to ripcn
too rapidly.
The oat crop in the States of the
upper Mississippi and Missouri val
leys has suffered further injury from
intense heat, but In Southern Mime
sofa and portions of South Dakota 1t
is in promising condition.

Syracuse, n. Y.-Frcdcrlck n. White,
son of the United States Ambassador
to Germany, died suddenly on Mon
day, and Notwithstanding the an
nounccmcnt that death was due to
cerebral hcmorrhagc, the unfortunate
fact is that he committed suicide. a
bullet was the medium through which
lie ended his life.
Mr.. Whites act is ascribcd to men
tai arrangement which followed an
attack of typhoid fever and nggra'
waited by the recent terrible heat wave.
At any rate 1t Is certain that for
some time he had given evidence of
melancholia and his family expected
that in quest of renewed health and
better spirits he would sail on the
Deutschland for Ringer Island. n Ger
man summer resort. There, 1t was m
tlclpated. he would meet his father,
Andrew u. White, the Ambassador.
Mr.. White killed himself in the old
family home here. He ate the mid
day meal as usual with his wife and
his eleven year-old child. His nntici-
patcd visit to his father abroad
formed the chief topic of CONVERSE
tion. He Joined in the talk, seeming
ly in earnest, betraying not the slight
est sign of any desperate intention.
During the afternoon he occupied
himself in the several preparatory ar
engagements and at $50 went upstairs
to the bathroom. Mr.. White had APP
pcared to be in usual health during
the day, and had attended to matters
Of business, in the management of the
White estate. He was alone In the
house with the servants during part
of the late afternoon, Mrs. White and
his son being out.
Mrs. White returned shortly after G
o'clock and sought him in his library.
She found that he had been making
out his usual monthly checks in the
transaction OF business. and had evil
IDENTIFY broken off abruptly. She went
through the holSe looking for him,
and to the bathroom on the second
floor. She there found him lying dead
on the floor. A rifle, which he still
held in his right hand told the story.
Then servants came rushing up, and
Or. Henry c. Locke was hastily sum
moncd. The physician answered with

services were of no avail. Death, Or.
Locke said, had doubtless been in

let had entered the head through the
right temple.
1t was thought advisable Mt first to
announce that Mr.. Whites death was
;luc to cerebral hcmorrhage, but the
futility of any attempt 10 conceal the
sad circumstances was soon acknowl-
edged.
