DR.GEORGECRIPFITRDROWNED
UTICA EDICATOK LOST IN AN
ADIRONDACK LAKE.
Tie Was Out Fishing and Disa appeared Five
Minutes After He Was Last Seen In His
Boat-Had Suffered From Insomnia
and Was on the Verge OF MelanchOlia.

UTICA, May 29.-Dr. George Griffith, super
intendent of the Utica public schools and
former vice-president of the National Edu-
cational Association, was drow ned in Hon
nedaga Lake in the Adirondacks, twenty
five miles north of this city, yesterday after
noon. Owing to the fact that the scene of
the tragedy is in an isolated part of the
Adirondacks word of DR.. Griniths fate did
not reach Utica until early this morning.
The body had not been recovered up to to
10 clock might. although several search
ing parties are patrolling the shore line
and other parties are dragging the lake.
The Coroner Of Herkimer county is direct
ing the search.
There were no witnesses OF DR.. Griff1th's
drowning, and the theory that it was acci-
dental is generally accepted as correct,
although the fact that he had long suffered
from insomnia and was on the verge of
melancholia, due to i'll health and worry
over matters in connection with school
affairs. may have prompted self-destruction.
There is nothing substantial, however,
in support of this latter theory,
In the hope of repairing his shattered
health DR.. Griffith went to Honnedaga
Lake eight days ago. He was accompanied
by his wife, daughter and son, Early yes,er-
day morning, taking his wife and daughter
in rowboat, he enjoyed few hours fish
ing, at which he was an enthusiast and ex-
pert. At 1890 A. NJ. Mrs. Griffith and daugh-
ter returned to the Adirondack League
Club, where the family was stopping, foI
lurcheur.
The doctor said he would forego lunch
con and started to row across the lake.
An hour later he was seen seated in his
boat fishing and five minutes thereafter
sidered Of special significance at the time,
as he was within hundred yards of shore
when last seen and it was considered not
improbable that he had gone ashore to
procure some bait and his boat had drifted
away from its anchorage.
At o O'Clock last even ng. however, DR..
Griffth's boat dIifted in toward the shore
at the Adirondack League Clubhouse.
II was unoccupied and one oar " as missing.
Search was Immediately instituted under
the direction Of the steward of the club,
and throughout the night and to-day the
task Of searching for the body was prose-
cuted. The missing mans fish pole was
found floating in the lake this afternoon
at a considerable distance from where
lie was last seen fishing.
DR.. Griffith was All expert oarsman and
swimmer. He was perfectly familiar with
visitor there for the past twenty-seven
years. For several years he had a camp
at Big Moose, but since he became MEM
Der Of the Adirondack League Club, two
years ago, he had stopped at the lodge.

in Trenton, Oneida county. N. Y, few

One feature Of the fire that appealed to
those who got close to il was the tremen-

their nests in the burning piers. The
little creatures flew into the hottest of the
flames and then dropped into the water

"A Woman's Struggle" will be the attraction at the New Haven theater the last three days this week, with Sat- urday matinee. This play is the first dramatic production ever produced in which baseball game in full blast is shown to the audience. In the third act the last scene discloses Jack Han- son, the hero, pitching for the Giants at the Polo grounds.
 One of the numerous things which made "A Woman's Struggle such a great success is the fact that there is no star" part; the characters are all good and need carefully selected and clever company to interpret them. Jack Hanson, the big, handsome hero; the loyable, persecuted Alice; big-hearted, slangy Sinkers; the French scoundrel Dumont, and funny, pretty, unsophis- tieated Merry Wrinkle, each holds the center of the stage in turn and shares the interest of the audience.
 One of the big scenes of "A Woman's Struggle" which has made such a hit in every city it has played, is that showing the Bowery, with the typical Bowery crowd. Overhead are the tracks of the Third Avenue Elevated, with trains running every few minutes; an open baToom. a dime museum in full swing. besides the hurdy- gurdys, lunch wagons, street gamins, etc, all So es- sentially part of this district.
