Would scarcely speak to him next day.

A SAD RECORD
Is Found in Case Of the Late Mrs.
Hattie Written.

Dexter. Me. Dec. Enquiry into the
mast life of Mrs Hattie Written. who
committed suicide on Sunday while IN
der arrest for the murder of her niue
daughter by poison, discloses the iact
that a trail of fire seems to nave f"i-
lowed the Written family, starting with
their departure from Milo. where the
house they lived in caught fire IN some
mysterious manner and was burned.
They moved to Old Town. There the
house which they rented was discover,d
on fire one day, and was saved only by
heroic work by the neishborS
After moving three times i'll Old Town
the Whittens went to Bradley. and a fire
which destroyed about half of that VII
lage originated in the house occupied by
the Wh'ttens
The family lived two years, 1897 ana
1898, in Old Town. There they were oh
iects of the charity Of the people, par
ticularly the churches.
Mr. Written. who was partly blind,
earned some money by making and sell
ing brooms and brushes. and the boys
worked in the wooden mill.
Mrs. Written was. or pretended to be.
aiing much of the time, and enlisted
considerable sympathy.
Mr.. Whitten although his eyesiSht was
nearly gone. was In other ways robust
and healthy and comparatively young
when he was taken suddenly i'll and died
In l9ol. Whether his symptoms were the
same aS those of the children is not deIi-
nitely known, although there is report
to that effect.
A rather important fact has come to
light in Old Town In the way of letters
received there by former acquaintance,
in which Mrs. Written stated that she
expected to be married shortly. the let
tiers having been received within few
weeks

agricultural department none is more
curious than the stree tomato" a fruit

Gently reached the chief pomologist in
Washington. The "tree tomato" is just
what its name implies. and no better
term could have been invented to de-
scribe it. The tree, according to the
Washington Post, is something on the
magnolia order, and the fruit that II
bears looks like tomato, has an lnte-
rior and seeds that one can hardly dis
tinguish from the tomato itself, While
the taste is practically the same. 1t Is
one among the strangest curiosities OF
plant life and is worth careful study.
