,un Special Service

New York Sun special Service.
Chicago, Aug 10.-After shooting herself
twice near the heart, a woman guest at the
Auditorium hotel fought with the doctors
yesterday when they attempted to save her
life.
There is some mystery as to her identity
and more as to her motive in attempting
suicide. She registered at the hotel on July SO
as Mrs Henry Glover, but her name is said
to be Miss Marie Gordon. 1t is believed that
she Is the daughter of a retired merchant
living in Montgomery, Ala.
Detectives are working on the theory that
she was the woman who accompanied the
man who shot a negro here early Saturday
morning. This man is said to be William
Lyttle, of Nashville, Tenn.
An unsigned telegram addressed to Mrs.
Harry Glover and received last night from
Birmingham, Ala, says: Everything is all
right. Be sure to come home.''
Hhe condition at noon showed no improve
ment. When told she had little chance for
life and urged to clear away. the mystery,
she answered by asking to be allowed to
write. When her condition permits she will
be given the opportunity.

Chicago. Aug. 10.-1n his sermon yester-

upon the American flag, saying it was not
rynbolic of freedom, and offerd new de-
seign. He would remove the stars from the
corner of the flag and place them along
the borders. In the center he would have
St. Andrews cross. Then he would have
congress adopt his design as the flag of
freedom. All this he would do If it were
not for his fear Of arrest for treason.
During his talk on"Why 1 Became an
American Citizen" he denounced royalty
and directed ugly remarks at the late Queen
Victoria, saying she and her parents were
incompetent to act as rulers of a nation. He
declared that God created kings and queens
in his anger.
This is tho reason, he said, he did not
establish Zion in England or Australia. He
would not subject himself to royalty.

Letting the standard breeds, which
more nearly fiji the requirements of
the public who buy the products of

Eggs must now be of uniform size

meat on the breast.
Dressed poultry must be attractive
in appearance and assorted according
to grade.
High-priced beef and pork have
placed a premium on the products of

have found that in proportion to
money invested and labor expended
in caring for them the hens produce

supply is far short of the demand we
can confidently look forwards to an
uninterrupted period of prosperity
