After Staying Husband, Then
Ended Her Own Life.

New York, March IA horrible trag-
edy was enacted here last night that
cost the lives of two. and which made
orphans of two little children in the
twinkling of an eye
At late hour last night Fred Gould
ing. a man in good circumstances and
well connected, came home to his wife
in an intoxicated condition. 1t is said
that he had frequently cone home at
unseemly hours under the influence of
liquor, and that his wife had warned
him on more than one occasion that
something terrible would happen unless
he mended his ways. Her prophecy was
fulfilled when she calmly picked up
revolver and fired twice at her hus-
band, reeling with drink, and killed
him instantly.
Walking into an adjoining room the
widow of but one moment kissed her
two little children, who were sleeping
peacefully with a servant girl, and, af-
ter kneeling of moment as if in prayer
she arose and fired a bullet through her
own heart.
The servant girl hurried for physi-

on his arrival.

Youngstown, o.. March 1.-THE
muddy condition of the paved. as we'll
as the unpaved streets, has called forth
many protests from the women who
are compelled to go to their employment
every day. Miss Essie Stewart, in the

oqered to take charge of the street
cleaning department, and place the
streets in passable condition.
1t is an undisguised fact" said Miss
Stewart, that Youngstown has about
the worst streets of any city in the
country. The men have tried to solve
the problem of keeping the streets clean
but have not succeeded. and the only
solution is to place a woman at the
head of the street cleaning department.
Just give the women chance and they
will make a clean city,

Greater Than Assertion.

There is none of US so hardened but
that when we have been able to aid our
fellow creatures by comforting a ben
eft or bringing a little comfort into
their lives we like to have appreciation
shown. This generally affords more
pleasure than the performance of the
act itself. and in this connection the
following letter from a Paris, Texas,
lady is of more than usual interest /:

Miss Laura Donnan, instructor OF civil

has effected an exceedingly unique and in
structive organization among the classes
in civics. She has formed a complete city
government, with a view of teaching the
pupils the workings of a municipality.
Every class has such an organization, and
where there are not enough students to NIL
the places some take two positions.
All of the city Offices, from mayor down
TO ward councilmen, are taken by the men,
bers OF the class. with the name of the man
that holds the office. City Controller
Bruenig has donated copies of the city
ordinances and charters of indianapolis TO
the newly-elected officeholders. so that they
NAV be familiar with the laws. The work
that Miss DOMAIN is adding to her depart
ment will be carried on as nearly like a
city government as Is possible, but no pol
itics will enter into the scheme.
The city council will hold its first ses-
sion next Monday during the civil govern
ment hour. and the mayor will lave a mes
sage prepared TO read to the members.
Every member of the council will be re-
oujred TO have an ordinance ready to intro
duce at the meeting. The first work of
the new administration is anxiously
awaited by the students and those inter-
ested in the scheme.

PLEA FOR FOREIGN MISSIONS.
Active Campaign Begun in the In
dianapOlis P~resbytery.

The campaign for the cause or missions
began I'm three churches of the Indianapo-
lis Presbytery last night. Meetings were
held at Greenfield. Greenwood and White
land at which the necessity for more funds
was urged by mission workers. Tonight
at the Tabernacle, First, Memorial and
Sixth Presbyterian churches meetings will
be held at which returned missionaries,
officers of the board of missions and pas
tors will speak.
Among the returned missionaries who will
speak is the Rev. George c. Doolittle. who
has just &me back from Syria. He spent
three years in Sidon. four in DER El Ko-
mar and the last two years in Zahleh in
the Lebanon district. Mr.. Doolittle's acst
was not a lonely one. as it is on a rail-
way line and IN the path of tourist travel.
In speaking of his work in Syria Mr.. Doo-
little said:
"I am a general missionary, occupying
something like the place of a Methodist
presiding elder. | have a large district,
with ~forty-fve stations TO oversee, where
the work is carried on by native teachers
and pastors. Ii is a difficult thing to say
how many native Christians there are in
Syria, but we have $500 church members.
There are probably something like four
times that many actual Christians in the
land"
Other missionaries with whom Mr.. Doc
little has been associated will be in Indiana
for about two weeks pleading the cause of
foreign missions.
