CARRIED
STRYCHNIuE

Los Angeles, CAL, July 1S.-For
three years Ida Grace. Wilman car
ried a vial Of strychnine with her to
head off death from consumption. The
young woman bought the poison in
Philadelphia, and yesterday, wearied
by the unusual struggle against the
ravages Of the disease, decided to end
her life,
The girl had studied the details of
the methods employed in cases Of sui
eide which had come to her notice
during the time she carried the poison
After pouring the contents Of the bot
tie, half ounce of strychnine into a
glass, she stirred it with water and
slipped asmall quantity, only enough
to cause almost instant death.
After taking the dose she screamed
for help. Persons in the boarding
house ran to he resistance, but it was
too late, and she died within a few
minutes. Miss Wilman was a pretty
blonde, "a years of age, and had been
working for a local firm as a book
keeper for the last three years.

that the Russian volunteer fleet
steamer st. Petersburg sigpalled him
to stop by firing across the bows of
his vessel on July Is, while twenty
miles off Jsbel Zugur, in the Red sea-

tined for Japan. The vessel was de-
tanned for four hours and was then

burg on the ground that she carried
arms and munitions of var for the
Japanese government.

The battery work of both teams was
very good, A genuinely hard baseball
was used, yet the catchers "took 'em
right off the bat.'' The pitchers had
little trouble in getting them over the
plate and strikeouts were frequent.
In fielding hits or throws the players
stopped the ball with their skirts as a
usual thing and then picked it up af-
ter an exciting search. ~.

?HE LIMIT
Baseball For Charity's Sake in Penn
sylvania.

Philadelphia, July 1S.-It was wom-
an against woman yesterday after
noon at 63d street and Gray's Ferry
road, where a wonderful game of
baseball for sweet charity's sake was
pplayed in the presence of fully 1900
pepople. The skirted athletes lined
up according as to whether they were
married or not. and at the conclusion
of two hours Of strenuous play, dur
ing which seven innings were COM
pleted, the matrons had been defeat
ed by their unmarried sisters by the
decisive score of 20 to 6.
The result was never in doubt. The
unmarried experts knocked out four
runs in the first inning and kept ton
adding to the score with ease. Next
to the splendid and clock-like work of
both batteries, the decided feature of
the game was the base running. Some
of the players ran like deers. and it
was no unusual thing for the batter
to make third on a pretty little bunt.
Notwithstanding the agility Of the
players two casualties occurred. In
running to first during the third in
ming Mrs. Chain trod on her skirt
and fell. She remained down for so
long time that the ball was gotten
over to first base ahead Of her and the
heartless umpire called her out. At
one exciting crisis Of the fifth inning
Miss Maize Patterson was nearly
caught while running between third
and the plate. While she was lodging
her pursuers the ball was thrown to
Third Basewoman Mrs. John Ss,hri-
yer. Mrs. Schriver was hit in the eye
and for the remained or the game

LOOKING TO PEACE
Great Britain Trying to Pave the Way
for Better Things.

st. Petersburg, July 1S.-It is au
:horitatively stated that since the out
break of the war neither Russia nor
Great Britain had proposed negotia-
tions looking to the settlement of
pending questions between the two
countries and that consequently the
report that Russia has rejected any
overtures by Great Britain in this di.
rection is a mistake
The important fact, however, has
developed that prior to the outbreak
of hostihties tentative negotiations for
the adjustment of long -standing diff
ferences between the two countries
had actually begun, but when Great
Britain's ally became involved in a
war with Russia tho improperly of
continuing the negotiations was rec
ognized by both parties and by mutual
agreement they were adjourned
Since that time there has been no
effort by either side to renew them.
Nevertheless It seems beyond ques-
ton that the diplomacy of both coun-
tries is striving to pave the way
toward an entente at the conclusion
of the war. In the meantime such
independent questions as arise are
being adjudicated in the best of spirit
as witnessed in the sealing cases and
in Great Britains gracious undertake
ing to act for Russia in the protection
of the seal fisheries in Bering sea
Especially since the arrival of Sill
Charles Harding, the British ambas
sador, whose special mission is be
lieved to be The cultivation of better
relations in view of an ultimate en-
tente, there has been a noticeable
amelioration of anti-British sentiment
in Russia.

RUSSIA NOT WORRIED
She Evidently Has Decided Her
Course in the Red Sea-

SOOISS III SuS nCO SCds
st. Petersburg, July 18.-The news
that the Russian volunteer steamships
Smolensk and st. Petersburg, now
cruising in the Red sea, are stopping.
ships Of neutral nations and search
ing them for contraband of war is
causing the liveliest interest in all
circles. Russia has evidently weighed
the question, believes herself to be
within her rights. and neither fears
nor anticipates international conPli-
cations. Indeed, some of the powers
may have been sounded by Russia on
the subject. Nevertheless, foreign
opinion is awaited eagerly and more
or less criticism is expressed. Mem
bers of the diplomatic corps are keen
ly anxious to ascertain the views their
governments will take Of the passage
through the DardaneIles of these YES
sells of the volunteer fleet as NOR
chantmen and their subsequent con-
version into ships of war. The gen
eral view in diplomatic circles, even
where sentiment is not particularly
friendly to Russia, is that while the
passage of the Dardanelles might be
considered a piece of sharp practice
on the part Of Russia, it is an accom-
plished fact and the powers will not
now regard it as 4 violation Of the
treaty Of Paris, but will guard against
its repetition. The diplomats think
that some Of the powers might insist
that henceforth all volunteer vessels
shall be considered as warships
within the meaning of the treaty.
