life in this manner. She was a pretty
young woman and a good deal of mys-
terry surrounded the affair. The body
was found at Thursday noon, January
%, 1896, in a half frozen condition
and was partially concealed by clump
of withered weeds, and when found she
lay on her right side in a drift heap
of blood stained snow. The blood from
her crushed skull had frozen, binding
to the earth, her dark brown curls.
Several buttons torn from her dress
waist, lay beside her, but in other re-
spects, there were no external indica-

left arm, her left leg, the bone of both
hips, her spine and several of the ribs
on her right side, as well as crushing

Probably the most notable tragedy
to occur on this bridge was the double
suicide of Jacob Amos and Henry Ber
genkreuger, two cigar makers who aft
er having been out on a days revel,
ended their good time IN the sensa-
tional manner of jumping .over the
high bridge into the water to their
death. The deed was committed about
o'clock in the afternoon of Saturday
October 80, 1897, in full view of a num-
Der of awed spectators who were pow
erless to act or to any way prevent
the two men from jumping to their
death. AS near as could be ascertain
ed the double suicide was one of the
most exciting ever Witnessed in this
part of the country. Both bodies shot
into space with a rapidly of lightning,
each man jumping far out from the
bridge and whirling over and over with
quickening momentum gathered in the

- Tragic History Of the High Bridge "

There are many methods employed
by the thousands of people who COM
init suicide every year in the United
States, and undoubtedly one of the
surest ways of taking ones life, is the
one taken by those of the ST. Paul
suicides who have jumped from the
smith avenue bridge commonly known
as the high bridge, into the waters of
the Mississippi river, 200 feet below.
The high bridge was opened for
travel in November, 1889. 1t is 2O3
feet above the water at the highest
point. At the point where the suicides
