ENDS LIFE IN
THE LAKE
MISS IDA PELTs BROWNS HER
SELF WHILE DESPONDENT
DUE TO ILL HEALTH

Peltz-The Funeral Will Be
Saturday.
DUE TO ILL HEALTH

Yesterday morning between 900
and 80 the body Of Miss Ida Z.
Peltz. sister of John f. Peltz, the
we'll known merchant tailor, Was
found floating in Glen Miller lake
at the southern end near the foot
bridge. The discovery was made by
two ladies who We're driving about
the park and they at once notified
Park Policeman Fossenkemper. He,
with the assistance of one Of the
workmen employed in the park, pull
ed the body out of the water. Su-
perintendent Gormon, John f. Peltz
and Coroner Markley were at once
summoned and an inquest held. A
suicidal verdict was rendered by the
coroner.
Miss .Peltz was fifty years of age
and for a number of years has been
in very poor health. The family no.
ticed some time ago that her mind
was unbalanced. About two weeks
ago she was taken from st. Ste
phen's Hospital where she had been
undergoing treatment for a nervous
trouble. Since then she has been
living at her home, 129 South Tenth
street and has been under the care
of a nurse. 1t has been her custom
since her discharge from the hospi-
tai to take long walks every morn
ing and as usual yesterday morning
she started out on an east bound
street car which left Eighth and
Main streets at $50 and arrived at
Glen Miller at s 40. When the body
was found the motorman in charge
of this car testified to the coroner
that the dead woman was the only
passenger on his car. recognizing her
| from the clothes she Wore. He also
said that when she left the car and
| started down the board walk TO tn,
steps she hesitated and then turned
back as though she wished to board
| the car again. after a minute : heSi-

down the steps toward the lake.
The place where Miss Peltz enter
ed the water was directly under the
little foot bridge at the southern
end of the lake near the water falls
It is evident that she choose this
place because it obscured her from
vitw Of passers-by. Before enter.

together ON the bank and then put
her pocket book on top of them all

.COL0RED ORATORS
were HERE
AT THE COLISEUM LAST NIGHT
GIVEN OVATION
TWO SPLENDID SPEECHES
Colored Men Swear They Will Stand
by the Republican Party on
Next Tuesday.
TWO SPLENDID SPEECHES

At the Coliseum last evening a
crowd of two thousand negroes and
white people gathered to hear Prof.
w. T. Vernon, of Kansas, speak in
behalf of the Republican party, but
Professor Vernon failed to put in an
appearance, owing to a previous
engagement for the same evening,
which the Republican State Com
mittee was unaware of. The big
crowd, however, was not disappoint-
ed as the two men whom the COM
mittee furnished at the eleventh
hour, l.. W. Manaway, of Jackson,
Miss, chairman of the board of di-
rectors of the Lincoln Savings Bank
in that city, and one Of the most
influential negroes Of the South, and
Gulley Brewer, Of indianapolis, edi-
tor of the indianapolis World, gave
two addresses that worked the big
crowd up to a wild pitch Of enthusi
asm. These two eloquent colored
men were introduced by George ".
Conrad, of this city, who also made
short address.
Mr.. Manway was the FIRST speaker
and he made an earnest plea for the
election of President Roosevelt The
speaker eagas wildly cheered when he
made the statement: ''They tell me
that the negroes viii sell their votes.
You can't show me a man III this au-
dience that will. If they do they
should be disfranchised and their
homes burned to the ground" In
conclusion Mr.. Manway said: AS
sure as the sun rises over the rocky
Maine coast and sets in the golden
Pacific, Theodore Roosevelt will be
elected on November s.
Gurley Brewer was next intro
dnced and with his first breath set
the crowd howling and laughing by
tie vitrolic remark that: IF Mr..
Manway had nothing to say against
Tillman, I have and | am going to
give him hell.'' and he did. The
! arch enemy OF the negro race was
ripped open and spread broadcast.
Mr. Brewer is one of the most for
cible takers ever heard III Rich
mond and when he occasionally
threatened to stop the audience
would yell: ''Don't stop" keep 1t
up, We are with you.' In conclusion
Mr.. Brewer called upon every col
ored voter to stand up and be then
had them repeat the following, which
was done with enthusiasm: 4 sol
emnly swear that on Nov. / will
vote the Republican ticket, irrespec-
tive of who the candidates are, and
vote it rain or shine The swear
ing could be heard so far down
Main street as to be almost audible
to Fl. [. Johnson. who was attend
ing Democratic meeting at the
New Phillips opera house.

SUMMONED MEDICAL AID
But the Poisonous Drug Had AL
ready Done Fatal Work The
Coroner Called. ..

Last evening about 80 Charles
Hauf, stonemason working on the
federal building, took an overdose of
strychnine with suicidal intent at
his room in the Brunswick Hotel and
died a short time after in terrible
agony.
Hauf arrived in this city Sunday
and at once started to work, as a
stonemason on the federal building
AT the hotel he registered from
Spencerville, Ohio, and among his eff
fects was an empty envelope, with
the. Spenceryille postmark and. on
the envelope was written "From
Gottlicb Hauf,' who is supposed to
be either his father or brother,
Worllmen at the government build
ing say that Hauf had acted in a
strange manner and Coroner Mark
ley believes that the man was men,
tally unbalanced when he took his
life.
Hauf ate his supper about 8
o'clock last evening and before going
up stairs to his room he sat in the
hotel Office and smoked cigar.
About 80 the hel p in the kitchen
heard groans and at once notified
proprietor James White. He went
up stairs to investigate and on pass
ing Hauf's room he heard groaning
within and on entering found the
unfortunate man writhin@ naked on
the bed in terrible agony. Doctor
Zimmerman and Doctor Markley
were at once summoned. but they
could do nothing to save the man,
who died fifteen minutes after their
arrival, passing from one convul-
sion into another.
G. w. Slorp, while the physicians
We're working with the stricken man
found an ounce bottle of strychnino
IN Hauf's coat pocket and when
Hauf was asked if he had taken any
of it he said: eyes. I took some at
1 O'clock He died before any
thing else could be learned from him.
Hauf is judged to have been thirty
five or forty years Of age. Among
his effects in the room the only
things found that might be used for
Identification purposesc was a stone
mason's union card made out at In
dianapolis and the empty envelope
from Spencerville. Ohio. The body
was taken to the undertaking es-
tablishment of Doan & l\lute.
Gottlieb Hauf ut Spencerville,
was wired and Coroner Markley ex-
poets an answer some time this
morning, The coroner will not rem
der his verdict until the examina-
tion of witnesses is completed this
morning. DR.. Markley says that it
IS possible that Hauf took a small
dose of the drug at / o'clock. but
the fatal dose was taken about Z 80

new FLAG FOR
PORT ARTHUR
MIKADO'S COLORs ARE ABOUT
TO BE RAISED
LONG SIEGE NEARLY ENDED
japanese Troops Planned to Present
the City to Their Emperor as
Birthday Gift.
LONG SIEGE NEARLY ENDED


end the operations at Port Arthur,
capturing the eastern fortified rid
ges. Their siege work has been COM
pleted by the placing of eleven-inch
Howitzers. During the night of De-
tober % all the reserves advanced
through a network Of trenches III
front of the eastern fortified ridges
from the south Keekwan to west OF
keekwan, and to the west of Rlh-
lung mountain, called by the Japan
eSe ShochoSau.
For a Birthday Gift
The bombardment began at dawn
October 80, and attacks were plan
ned against Rihlung mountain, an
entrenched hill between the coast Of
Baniusan and the east Of keekwan.
and on three keekwan forts. There
is tremendous excitement among the
troops. who are convinced of success
and mean to capture the fortified
ridges and compel the surrender OF
Port Arthur in time for the Mlka-
dos birthday, November ).
Terrific explosions heard at Che
Foo indicate that the Russians have
exploded mines and destroyed other
property.
Information, the reliability OF
which is beyond question, is to the
effect that the japanese now occupy
positions which place the east side
Of the town at their mercy. The last
assault has gained for them the po-
sitions which insure their ability to
enter the main east forts whenever
they are ready.
Long before the second Pacific
squadron arrives the Japanese FLAG
will wave over the wrecked citadel.

 Within the tall lands" Edinburgh, built so closely together that the inhab- itants of adjoining houses could often shake hands across the deep but mar row chasm that divided them, the in habitants lived in the most confined of quarters, Four, five or at most six rooms constituted the apartments of the wealthiest families Servants slept outside the house or under the kitchen table; beds were made up for the nurse land children in the masters study; |turned-up beds With curtains drawn Iaround them stood in the drawing room.

 Taverns, in fact, played almost the some part in the social life of Edin- burgh during the third quarter of the eighteenth century as coffee e-houses had done in London in Addison's time. They were the common meeting places of q race of men to whom home meant little more than place to sleep. Doctors met their patients lawyers consulted with their clients, over a mug of ale or a tass of brandy In the little rooms of a dark tavern half underground. Here the city magistrates were accustomed to meet, and here the minister sof the general assembly were entertained Even tradespeople attended to their business as much within the tavern as within the shop. As a result the greater part of the male population of Edinburg drank steadily from morn till eve, and far on into the night At 10 o'clock at might the drum of the city guard warn- ed all God-fearing men to leave the tavern and seek their homes in accord ance with the provisions of an ancient law which closed all places of entertain ment at that hour.

xor YERY COSTLY YET.

So far the order issued last winter granting pensions for age has not been very costly. Commissioner Ware shows that on July of this year 30 per cent. of the survivors of the civil war were under 62 years of age, and therefore not immediately affected by his order. Twenty per cent. more are between 62 and 65, and so eligible, is for no other reason, to s6 a month. Twenty per cent.
 more are under 6s, and so in the S class. The remaining 30 per cent. are over 6s. and entitled to s1O or SIP a month on age alone, according to whether they have passed the seventy year line. MT. Ware says that after &C., tive promulgation of this order for three and a half months there were only 28, ,Sos applications for increase un- der it, or less than per cent. Of the pensioners who are drawing less than SIP month under the act of 1890. There were also 1s,S0S original applications under this order. of which about one fourth have been granted. About one half of the applications for increase have already been acted on. But of the 1S,O00 certificates issued, nearly half of them were for only s2 a month increase. and the time has been so short be- tween the adjudication and the end of the fiscal year that only about $sO,oOO was utilized of the $1,5O0,OOO which con- gress made available for carrying out the terms of the order. .-a. .. ]
 Perhaps the expenditure for pensions will begin to decrease soon. . .:
