The American Heirsss Market.

The story of the Austrian Count
Monnich, who is being sued by SYM
dicate of money lenders to recover
money advanced to him to enable him
to marry a fortune, should, but proba-
bly, will not, open the eyes Of rich
Americans whose daughters are wooed
by foreign noblemen-
1t does not seem to be denied that
the loan was made for the distinct
purpose of matrimonial speculation;
the defense is that the money was Dor
rowed to enable the count to marry a
certain lady, whereas that lady, not
being an American heiress, refused
him and he had to look elsewhere.
The point is that he deliberately set
out to marry a fortune, and, having
failed in Europe, turned his attention
to the United States, where he sue
ceeded.
There is no particular occasion for
regret or sympathy on either side. The
count won a fortune with his bride;
the lady bought a title with her hus-
band; both got what they wanted.
But such proceedings are disgrace
full from the American point of view,
which contemplates love as an essen
tial element of marriag e. They are
an offense to the American sense of
honor, and ell true Americans are
ashamed Of Philadelphia In
quirer.

Engaged lovers in the Canary islands
find it difficult to exchange sweet con-
fidences, as the young man is not al
lowed to visit his fiancee in her home.
He goes to her house and, finding her
at the window, must talk to her from
the street Sometimes her window is
perhaps ten or twelve feet above the
road. Therefore he must talk loudly,
and very often members of the girls
family are unseen listeners.

HEROIC RESCUE
I ~ M Il u "A I r.
HosO q Painter ~ndfcbed His
Brother From q Horri-
i Bile Death.

Falling through the air, ninety feet
above a paved courtyard, Edward
Drummer, painter and veteran of the
Spanish-American war, was caught a
few days ago by his brother George
who was standing on the window sill
of the top floor Of the schoolhouse in
West Forty-fourth street. New York
city, and snatched from the death that
had just claimed his fellow workman,
William Carpenter, who was instantly
killed by his fall.
1t was a thrilling moment when
George Drummer hung suspended by his
right hand from the slippery window
ledge while he held his brother by his
left hand. 1t was a feat of prodigious
strength. George Drummer believes it
was his love for his brother that ena-
bled him to endure the strain.
George and Edward Drummer, with
William Carpenter, were employed in
painting the schoolhouse. They were
on swinging scaffold. The west end
was held up by ropes around stone
and brick chimney. They had painted
the fifth story Of the building and were
just finishing the window stills. George
Drummer stepped off the platform to the
window sill to paint a sash, while Ed
ward and Carpenter remained on the
scaffold.
1t was just 2:30 o'clock in the after
noon when they heard a warning sound
as If the rope were breaking. They
looked up, but could see nothing wrong
with it.
They worked on, talking and laugh
ing, and Drummer had forgotten the in
cident, when suddenly there was a
crash, and the scaffold beneath him
gave lurch that threw him off his
feet. The planks sagged ten feet, but
did not fall at once.
With the crash there came a shower
of bricks and stone. Carpenter was
knocked off the scaffold by the rain Of
bricks and with a shrek went falling
through the air, turning over and over
until he struck the courtyard.
The scaffold, after sagging ten feet,
gave way altogether at the west end,
where it had been released by the col
lapse of the chimney. AS Drummer went
falling through the air his brother saw
him and instinctively threw out his
hand to catch him. His fingers closed
on Edwards coat and held fast
The jerk of Edwards heavy body
pulled George off the window ledge,
but he caught with his right hand as he
was falling. The platform swung down
and hung perpendicularly, with the
ropes few feet distant from the broth
ers. George, whose strength was fast
going, begged his brother to catch the
ropes.
II can't reach them. Try and swing
me to them," Edward said.
1t seemed impossible, but George,
with his brain whirling with the tre-
mendous strain, began slowly to swing
his brother back and forth It was just
when his last bit Of strength was gone
that Edward seized one of the ropes.
Exhausted, George fell from the win
dow ledge, but in whirling over he too

John Adams Opinion of Washington

After dinner one night a visitor
stepped into the hall to help Adams put
on his coat. Adams thanked him.
"Don't mention it, was the solemn
toady's reply. "No attention is too
great, no trouble is too much that we
of this century have the pleasure Of
taking for the patriots of the Revolu-
tion-for George Washington and your

has been some lively correspondence
in the last few days between Adjutant
General Ward who arranged for the
hotel accommodations at the st. Louis
Fair dedication. and the Planters Ho-
tel company, and the question of pay
ing the bill may go into the courts.
The governors party left st. Louis
without paying the bill presented for
five days because the charge was re.
garded as excessive. The matter was
taken up by correspondence and the
hotel is holding out for five days, al
though the Indiana party remained in
ST. Louis less than three days. The
hotel says it vacated the engaged
rooms the day before the Indiana
party arrived. Indiana will stand ON

M. C. GOUDY
SUICIDE CASE.

Salt Lake. Utah, May Marshall
G. Goudy, son of Hon. Frank @.
Goudy of Denver, committed uicide
in Salt Lake City today by taking
strychnine and cutting his throat
with piece of broken crockery.
The act was committed IN room of
the California house. Mr.. Goudy
has for some time been employed as an
electrician for the Hercules power
company and was ON his way from
Logan to Provo. Utah, for the COM
pany when he stopped over in Salt
Lake and took his life. No cause for
the deed can be learned.
Mr.. Goudy came in last night from
Logan at 10 O'Clock and was assigned
room in the California house. AS
he failed to rise the landlady became
alarmed, and at six O'Clock tonight
her son. Richard Rogers, looked over
the transom and saw Goudy lying
there dead. The room was in con-
fusion showing that there had been a
frantic death struggle. A Jagged
cut was in his throat and close at hand
was fragment of a broken water
pitcher with which the cash had been
made. 1t is supposed that after taking
strychnine he found the suffering SO
great that he sought to end his strug-
giles in a quicker way. He had no
letters on his person or other marks of
Identification, but a baggage check

application for membership in the
alumni association of the Mercersburg
academy, in which his name and ad-
dress were given.
Marshall Goudy was twenty years
old and we'll known in Denver. where
he spent the greater part of his life.
He was twin brother of Alfred
Goudy, who is now with his father in
Denver
Marshall Goudy graduated at the
Mercersburg academy at Waynesboro.
Pa. and tl.en entered he state univer-
sity at Boulder Last fall he unex-
pectedly left his studies, and week
later wrote to his father from Arizona
expressing regret for his hasty action,
but saying that he did not wish at
that time to return to the university. |
His father sent him money and he |
then went to Los Angeles. where he |
secured employment. While at Los
Angeles his brother Alfred, who is
sophomore at Stanford university, Wis
tied him, and learned from him that |
he expected to return to school in the
near future.
Later Marshall proceeded to San
Francisco and from there went to
Logan, Utah, where he was employed
by L. l.. Mum. an old friend of the
Goudy family, in the electrical plant
of the Hercules Power company. He
was in constant communication with
of the family in Denver and
never intimated to any of them that
all was not we'll with him.
A short telegram, briefly announced
the fact of Marshall's IS death. was re-
ceived at the Goudy residence last
night. No cause for the deed could
