A freshly made bride and bridegroom
sauntered down Broadway, and the bride be-
came angry because they attracted SO puch

she carry the suit case and the satchel, ex'
planning that this was sure way OF avert

after consulting the thermometer, came to
the conclusion that she preferred the pub.

Saved at the Waters Edge After She Had Found
Motive in Sickness, Lack OF a
Husband and Money.

Iexpecting to see a stream of blood fol-
low.
The woman was taken to the police
station and placed in cell. She
said her name was "Sing" and the
desk clerk registered her as Miss
Sing
She could speak English only i'm
perfectly and it was difficult to get
connected story from her. From what
could be learned she was employed
as a cook by Murakami She said
that she had been sick for long time,
and that her husband had left her, and
that she had no money. Because of
all her ''pilikia" she was going to kill
herself The knife was taken away
from her, and the clerk asked if she
would go somewhere and hide and then
stab herself, If it was returned. Yes,
gimme" the woman said, as she
reached out for the knife. Her eyes
were very much swollen, as if she had
been weeping for hours. She was
thoroughly searched and every article
of clothing with which she might hang
herself was removed. Even her extra
switch of hair was taken away.
