LAST NIGHTS DISPATCHES
SUICIDE IN ST. ALBANS.
Miss Winnie Shore Turned on the Gas I'm
Her Room-No Motive for the Deed Dis

| Miss Winnie Shore Turned on the Gas IL
Her Room-No Motive for the Deed Dis
| covered.
st Adams, Aug 14.-Miss Winnie
Shore, aged about IS years, was found
dead in bed today, having been asphy.
xiated during the night. She was EN-.
ployed in the family of j w Ryan OF
| North Main street, where she had lived
| for about two months, her home being
| in Georgia, where her parents now live.
The girl was found to be locked In
, her room when Mrs Ryan called her at
O'Clock yesterday morning. On SMELL
ing the gas DR. JENNIE was called, and
the door forced open and the girl found
dead in her bed. The gas vas turned
on though the cap had been removed
by Mr. Ryan some time ago and the gas
had not been used in the room. 1t is
plain case of suicide, but why the
young woman should do anything
so desperate is a mystery. She was
not respondent, and had not appeared
strangely. The only peculiar incident
connected with her life the past few
weeks was her telling neighbOr that
she intended to end her life In this way
but no one anticipated anything of the
kind, but thought she was talking in
that manner TO get sympathy. She had
had no trouble with any Of her rela-
tives, and the slightest motive cannot
be ascertaDed.
A letter was found in her room which
was dated August IL and addressed to
her father, in which she asks her moth.
er to come up to the celebration FRI
day, and asks about her little brothers
and sister. Enclosed was programme
of the attractions for Old Home Week
at st Adams Bay.
The girl has always been trusted and
respected by her employers and was at
tractive in appearance. Tuesday night
she attended the minstrels and must |
have turned on the gas after getting |
ready for bed on her return from the
show.
The inquest was held this morning
W McGettrick, o l. Kinds, mayor,
and Judge J W rhorne, and it was
found that there was nothing to show
An intent Of suicide or generalization on
the part of the girl. After the inquest
the body was taken to the girls home
In Georgia, where the funeral and burial
will take place.

tralian cutter She lies total wreck OF
the desert island of Pikar in the Marsh

loss of the vessel Is not known but 1t Is
certain woman and several children
landed on the island.
The island is uninhabited, but in
walking along the beach the crew OF
the cutter came across footprints and
traces which showed someone had been
there. The footprints we're undoubted-
y those OF a woman and several chill
dren. The conclusion arrived at was
that portion of the crew had landed
on the island the survivors. including
the captains wife and family. The
marks on the beach also disclosed the
fact that two boats were hauled upon
the beach and then subsequently
launched.
The body Of a man was also found,
badly decomposed, but a certificate,
that of the chief officer, was found in
one of the pockets and turned over to
the German government Of the islands.
In shipping circles it is said the wreck
is undoubtedly that of the Manchester,
