Sophia Sarie Kills Herself as
Sweetheart Is Married.
SENT BULLET THROUGH HEART
Report Of tn, Revolver Heard BY the Guests
al the Wedding Three Blocks
Away

New York. June Just at the hour
united TO another the man who had
promised to marry her. Sophia Sarie.
beautiful Finnish woman. 80 years old,
stood at the corner OF l36th street and
Park avenue last evening and. placing
the muzzle OF n revolver 10 her breast.
sent bullet through her heart.
The pistol shot which ended the life of
the heartbroken girl was distinctly heard
In an apartment three blocks distant.
where Miss Sarie's faithless lover was
repeatin the words which bound him
to another woman. But the bridegroom.
his happy bride and the 30 or more
guests at the wedding assembled in the
apartment had no idea OF the significance
of the report.
The story of the tragedy In the life OF
the girl suicide was made known late last
night. when Mrs Katie Michaelson, of
2O92 Madison avenue. called at the East
126th street station and identified the
body of the dead girl as that of her
sister, Sophia Sarie, a governess who
sobs and hysterical outbursts of grief
Mrs. Michaelscn told the story OF her
sisters life
Until a few weeks ago her sister she
said, had been employed as a governess.
When she gave up her position II was
with the understanding. Mrs. Michael
son said. that she was to be soon mar
ried to August Newholm. whom she had
met about six months ago at a church
reception.
II have been working on her wedding
clothes" sobbed Mrs Mchaelson. "She
had noticed three weeks ago that New
holm was acting coolly toward her, and
when she reproached him he became
angry.
"She found out that the reason New
holm was acting coldly toward her was
that he was going with a girl named
Victorine Lindhorst. who lived at East
I33d street Only a day or two ago. she
heard that he was engaged TO Miss Lind
horst and was going to marry her.
suppose when she found out that the
wedding was really 10 take place she
decided to commit suicide"
The police learned that Miss Sarie went
to the apartment OF Miss Lindhorst early
last evening and asked to see Mr. New
holm. She was told that he was not
there. She tried TO see Miss Lindhorst,
but did not succeed. She then seated
herself on the stairway leading to the
apartment and watched the wedding
guests arrive.
AS the time fixed for the ceremony,
half-past s o'clock. drew near she left
the building and walked to Park avenue
and 136th street, and there shot herself.
Mr.. Newholm and Miss Lindhorst were
married by the Rev. DR.. Blumberg. Both
were shocked when they learned OF Miss
Sarie's suicide and the news had such a
depressing effect upon them that the
wedding jollity came to an end and the
party soon dispersed.
Mr.. Newholm said that he had never
been engaged to Miss Sarie but that
they had been friends. His bride de-
clared that the dead girl had twice
threatened to shoot her.

BeehIer Says Notion That II
Never Strikes Twice in Same
Place Is Nonsense.

St Louis. July Frank Beehler Is get
ting used to being struck by lightning.
and says that the notion that lightning
never strikes twice I'm the same place is
all nonsense. Three times within the last
year has Beehler been shocked by light
ming and he believes he has accumulated
enough electricity in his system TO ft
him for a storage battery for an automo-
bile or as a magnetic healer.
In a recent storm he received his third
and last shock. and 1t nearly killed him.
He was sitting by a large plate-glass win
dow at his home. reading when there
came vivid fash OF lightning.
II bored a hole in the ceiling directly
over his head. darted about the room like
a glittering snake. rushed TO the mantel,
where II tore a chip from a vase. and then
descended on Beehler's right shoulder. He
felt a singing. paralyzing pain shoot
through his arm, and that member drop
ped helpless to his side.
Then he experienced numbness In his
left leg and sank unconscious. A mo-
ment later he recovered and tried to raise
himself, but could not do So
His wife ran into the room and began
chafing his hmbs, and In a half hour
Becker recovered the use OF his arm,
but II was two hours before the paralysis
wore away from his left leg. The ankle
is still badly swollen.
The bolt in its manoeuvres around the
room stabbed six holes each about an
inch and a half In diameter In the cell
ing. The glass of the window was shat
tered into~ powder and filled the room
like white smoke, while the odor of brim-
stone hung In the atmosphere for full
half hour
Another bolt tore a gap six inches In
diameter through the ceiling OF the house
next door.
On July 3, 1901. Beehler was driving
along Broadway near Monroe street when
a globe of fire struck an electric pole
bursting at the contact and shocking him
Two weeks ago he was walking on Madi-
son avenue near Elliot carrying an UNI
brella which had n steel rod. There was
a fash OF lightning and he distinctly felt
the shock OF electricity as IL ran down
the rod and through his body. Another
young fellow who had a similar umbrena
came up to him and asked II he had felt
a shock declaring that he had.
my last experience was the worst
have ever had" said Beehler, "and hope
II will never be repeated. I suffered In
tense for a time and have pains in my
ankle yet IL is a miracle how I escaped
being killed. for the bolt made a hole d.
rectly above my head. They say the
third time Is the charm, and l sincerely
hope IL is"
