"JACKIES" OF THE MAYFLOWER
JUMP OVERHEARD
One Employed on the Presidents
Yacht Swims Seven Miles.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, July 2S.-
President Roosevelt, accompanied by
Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Alice Roosevelt
and members of the Sycamore Hill
house party, took luncheon this after
noon on board the Mayfower. In a
way it was a farewell luncheon, as the
Mayf1ower has been ordered to Gar
deners bay, near Slenter. island, for
target practice. She will go thence to
New London, Conn.,, to join the North
Atlantic squadron for the summer
maneuvers off that port.
The Mayf1ower will be replaced here
by the Sylph, which was used often
by President Mckinley for short trips
on the Potomac river. She is not as
large and not as elaborately fitted as
the Mayfiower, but is nevertheless a
trim and staunch little boat.
Late last night two of the Mayf1ow-
er's 'jackies," firing of the monotony
of life on board, dived overheard as the
ship lay at anchor, about four miles
from, Sycamore hill. The deck watch
gave the alarm and a boat put out aft
er the men, One of them was over
taken some distance from the Mayf1ow-
er and dragged dripping into the boat.
The other escaped in the darkness.
Shortly before midnight he landed at
the Seawanhaka dock in Oyster Bay,
quite seven miles from the ship.

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 2S.-Prof.
Theodore Heinsel, a scientist of Cali
fornia, who is in Pittsburg, declares
that the recent eruptions of Mont Pelee
have caused a noticeable elevation
throughout the eastern section of the
United States.
He claims to have discovered points
along the seacoast and the interior
for distance of several hundred miles,
where the ground has risen from three
to ten feet. These results have be-
come noticeable within the last month,
and scientists in the employ of the
government are making a technical
study to determine to what extent the
United States has been affected by the
upheavals in the West Indies.
Prof. Heinsel says that along the
Atlantic coast it is noticeable that the
tide does not reach the height it for
merly did by from three to ten feet and
that as far inland as Harrisburg ele-
vations of four feet have been noted
This is accounted for by the softness
of the ground along the east coast and
the hardness inland, where iron ore
and other metallic formations were
less liable to disturbances.

TRAGIC FATE OF A. M. ROTHS-
CHILD, HEAD OF A CHICAGO
DEPARTMENT STORE.
WHILE IN BATH ROOM HE
SHOOTS HIMSELF DEAD
Health Undermined by Business Exer-
tions, He Had Just Returned From
an Outing in Minnesota Apparently
Much lmproved-Removed From
Davenport to Chicago in 1873.

CHICAGO, July 28.-A M. Rothschild
until two months ago the head of the
State street department store firm of
A. M. Rothschild & Co., committed
suicide today at his home, Thirty-sev-
enth court and Michigan avenue, by
shooting himself in the head, the
wound inflicting almost instant death.
Acute insomnia, which probably caus-
ed temporary insanity, is said to be
responsible for the deed.
Mr.. Rothschild returned from a six
weeks outing in Minnesota the past
week, and seemed improved physically.
AT no time, it is said, was his mental
condition such as to cause any appre-
hension that he contemplated self de-
Struction.
Shortly after luncheon this afternoon
Mr.. Rothschild entered the bath room
OF one of the upper floors of his home,
and almost Immediately the servants
heard the report of a revolver. Rush
ing to the bathroom, they found the
merchant lying on the floor. A bullet
wound in the forehead showed what
had happened. Mr.. Rothschild was
still breathing. A physician was sum-
moned, but could be of no service.
Mr.. ROthSchild retired from the man
agement Of the big department store
at State and Van Buren streets about
two months ago on account of ill
health.
Health Wrecked by Business.
A constitution ordinarily robust had
been shattered in building up the busi-
ness since it's opening, seven years
ago. Interested with him and the prin-
c1pal owner of the store was Nelson
Morris, his father-in-law.
Mr.. Rothschild was born in the lit
tie German village Of Nordstetten fifty
years ago. When a child of five ..Srs
he came to America, and while in his
teens went to Davenport, Iowa. With
his two brothers he established a gen.
eraf store. In 1875 he came to Chicago
and Immediately began making a rep
utation for himself, organizing in 1895
the department store which now bears
his name. Mr.. Rothschild was a df-
rector of the worlds fair, former di-
rector of the National Bank of the Re
public and a member of the Standard,
Washington Park and Hamilton clubs.
He leaves widow and one son.
