ceived from dispensaries in several coun-

blegram-Special Telegram. 1.-THE tragic
suicide Of the two Americans, Mr. and
Mrs. Vaughn, formerly of North Carolina,
at Ouchy, on Lake Geneva, last week, Is
the talk of the American colony here. A
long letter written by Vaughn explaining
the motive of the double suicide, was
found on table of the room in which the
couple sought death.
1t was a pitiful story of hard luck, in
termingled with tragic romance. Thirty
years ago thy were married in Switzer-
land and rented the same cottage in which
they were found dead. Their bodies were
discovered in their former bridal chamber.
After their marriage, both being we'll off
they spent two years in Europe and later
returned home. Though natives of North
Carolina, they removed to Portland Ore,
and there Vaughn embarked in various
business enterprises, which prospered.
After twenty-five years of married happi-
ness, in which eight children were born
to them, troubles came thick and fast.
Their eight children died within three
years. The youngest son, after accident
ally shooting his eldest brother, himself
met death in q mill explosion. Six months
later a favorite daughter died of typhoid
fever contracted while nursing her hus-
band, who also succumbed to the disease.
The husband Of another daughter embez-
zled funds intrusted to his care and in
order to save him Vaughn was obliged
to make over most of his property.
Finally, broken in health and spirits,
the aged couple, left without a relative
in the world and with just enough money
to keep them from starvation, came to
Europe. They sought rest in Switzerland
the scene OF their romantic courtship
The modest ivy-clad cottage which they
had occupied as bride and bridegroom, by
chance empty, they rented, hoping to find
there solace from their many griefs, but
instead. Vaughn's letter said, the men,
ories Of the past became unendurable and
they determined to end everything.

MOYER PROBABLY MURDERED
Found Unconscious on the Sidewalk
and Now Dying at the
Hospital.

Clark Mayer, a mail clerk on the Burling
ton road, was found unconscious dying on
the sidewalk in front of the Creston house
saloon in Council Bluffs shortly after mid
night. There was an ugly wound under his
right eye, from which blood was flowing
freely.
He was taken to st. Bernard's hospital,
where his death is momentarily expected.
He was found by former Alderman Brown
and County Surveyor Cook.
There is every indication that 1t is a case
of murder, but both the motive and the
parties guilty of the crime are a mystery
at this time. The last seen of Mayer be-
fore he was found on the sidewalk was
when he left the saloon at twenty minutes
to IL o'clock. According to Martin Morten-
sen, the bartender in the saloon, Mayer
had been spending the evening in the place
in company with friends and left when the
place was closed for the night few min
utes before IL. No one has appeared up
to the present who can tell anything OF
what happened between that time and when
he was found unconscious on the sidewalk.

who predicted King Edwards death a year
ago now refuses to discuss the prophesy.
saying that he abides by his prediction, but
that the circumstances are too painful to
permit him to enlarge upon the condemna-
tory features Of the kings horoscope.
Nine. Coedon, the seeress, when King Ed
ward last visited Paris predicted that he
would govern large peoples, but would never
wear crown, which then seemed a foolish
contradiction. Several newspapers which
had started to re-exploit these prophecies
have been compelled by public opinion to
desist, protests having been made against
the use of newspapers to encourage weak
minded persons to belief in frauds.
Prominent physicians, members OF the
Academy of Medicine and surgeons in the
hospitals, when interviewed upon the sub
ject of King Edwards condition. unani-
mously declared against his recovery. The
operating upon the king, they say, was per-
formed during an acute crisis without due
preparation OF the body. DR.. Lucas Cham
ponniere says such cases show a death per-
centage Of IS per cent. "It is a we'll known
fact" he said, that King Edward is a suf-
ferer from diabetes, a circumstance which
would operate seriously against his recov-
cry"
DR.. Pozzi told the correspondent that the
fact that the king was alive hve or six days
after the operation is no security against
a fatal termination.

cause Of the death of the master.
The frescoes of the castle Of Saint Angelo

In heaven that were to serve to ornament

WILLIE ASToR is IN LOVE
Forces an English Girl 10 Choose
Between Untitled Lucre and
Unlucred Title.

Copyright, 1902. by Press Publishing Coz
LONDON, June 2s.-(New York World
Cablegram-Special Telegram. with the
consent OF his father, William Waldorf AS
tor, young Waldorf Astor has made a for
nal proposal for the hand Of Lady Edith
Villiers, daughter of the earl Of Claren-
con.
Lady Edith is not particularly good look
ing, but is a very charming girl. She has
been about much with her brother, Lord
Hyde. one of the best known young men in
society. 1t appears that Lady Edith has
also received proposal from a suitor who
has no claims to such huge wealth as the
Astors. but who possessed a title. There
is vast amount Of guessing as to which
she will choose Of these, who are a'court-
ing, or whether she will choose either.
Unlike his father, young Waldorf Astor
is an American citizen. He does not fol-
low the example OF his father and renounce
his citizenship here. He was officially rec
ognized as an American citizen when he
was recognized by Surrogate Thomas in
New York City as a trustee of the vast
John Jacob Astor estate. The young man
has, however, lived in England ever since
he was a boy and is very English in his
ways and ideas, socially and politically.
He is a good oarsman, a fine horseman and
an ardent huntsman, who very nearly won
the inter-varsity point-to- point steeple-
chase last year. He has recently taken up
with politics and is a follower of Lord
Roseberry. He was very anxious to volun-
teer as soldier and go to the Boer war,
but his father refused to allow him to do
so. He was keenly disappointed, because
all his college chums enlisted and he real
lied that he lost caste among his associates.
Young Astor was born in New York City,
but knows little or nothing about his ma
tive city. He is a handsome, athletic fell
low. He was a college friend of the son
| or Lord Roseberry and 1t was in that way
that he became interested in politics.
Francis Hyde Villiers, c. B., an uncle of
Lady Edith, was at one time prominently
mentioned as the probable successor of the
late Sir Julian Pauncefote as ambassador
to the United States. He has been as
sistant under secretary of state for foreign
affairs.

terest continues in the discussion in the
Senate of the bill reducing compulsory
military service to two instead of three
years, which is the requirement OF the
present law. Minister of War Andre sup
ported the bill in a remarkable speech, in
which he said that two years is now SUN
cient to turn out capable soldiers, even
in the military service, and that a demo-
cratic state should not require a longer
term OF service from citizens In time O:
peace.
Premier Combes said the whole cabinel
indorsed the measure. It's opponents, he
declared, are reactionaries, whose chief
argument is not that the soldier may moi
become proficient in the two years, bu;
that the period Is too short for him tc
imbibe the proper military spirit.
Senator Halligin, in reply. voiced the
real fears OF the opponents OF the reduc.
tion by saying that, while soldiers can be
fitted to fight foreign enemies in two years
unless they are kept long enough to i'm
bibe the true military contempt for every
thing unrelated to the army, they cannot
