JOKE RoRs WIFE OF REASON.
Sad Sequel to silly Trick Perpetrated
by Edmond Lelouse.


A sad sequel was the result of a
silly joke perpetrated recently in
Paris. M. Edmond Lelouse wishing
to brighten his wife, dressed up a wax
figure the head of which and one of
the hands he lightly attached to the
body by means OF gum, and placed it
in bed.
While Lelouse was watching the
proceedings from behind some dra-
peries his wife, about to retire, grasp
ed what she supposed, in the semi
darkness, to be her husbands hand,
but which was in reality that of the
wax figure. The hand, cold and clam
my, detached itself from the limb and
remained in her grasp.
With a cry of horror Madame La
louise let the hand drop to the ground
and flung her arms around the figures
neck, when the head also became de-
tached and rolled down upon the floor.
The terror stricken woman, uttering
piercing shrieks, ran madly down the
stairs, where she was stopped by some
neighbOrs and detained.
When the police arrived it was
found that she had become raving
mad. Later she was conveyed to the
asylum.
When the husband was appraised
yesterday morning of the hopelessness
of his wife's condition, he poisoned
himself by swallowing a dose of nitric
acid.

PAUL JONES' REMAINS.

the body of Paul Jones has been
crowned with success by the discov
cry of the body and it's Identification
by the highest French medical ex
perts as unquestionably that of the
famous American admiral who found
ed the American navy.
The state department at Washing
ton has made public the cablegram re-
ceived from Ambassador Porter at
Paris, in which he announced that the
body of John Paul Jones had been
found The cablegram described the
finding of the casket and the identifi-
cation of the body. The cablegram
fully bears out the Paris dispatches
of the Associated Press.
Upon receipt of Mr.. Porter's dis
patch, Acting Secretary LOOMS cabled
an acknowledgment and took occasion
to congratulate Mr.. Porter on the
success of what appeared to be a
dubious task. 1t is learned here that
the ambassador has already expended
$500 of his money in this long quest.
1t is fully expected that congress will
reimburse him. Mr.. LOOMS stated
that there was no doubt that the re-
mains will be conveyed to America on
a warship but it could not yet be told
this would be a French or
American man of war.
Proof Seems Positive.
DR.. Papillault, the anthropOlogist,
in an interview at Paris explains the
pursued to identify the body,
found in the old st. Louis cemetery
after a long search made by Ambas-
sador Porter. He says an examina-
ion was made of the teeth, hair, nose
and ears and they all correspond with
remarkable precision to the known
and characteristics of
he admirals organs The formation
If the frontal bone, the slope of the
nasal bone, the cartilages and ears
likewise correspond precisely with the
of Moudin's bust made
rom the life masks. The measure
nents of the height and diameter of
he skull correspond within a thou
3andth part of a meter, thus estab-
ishing a remarkably exact correspon-
lence.
The doctor said his report makes
he usual reservation covering posi-
lie doubts, although he believes he
las assembled so many proofs as to
make the Identification incontestible
Ambassador Porter is receiving con-
on the success of his long
search for the body, which has been
transferred to a new casket bearing
IN inscribed date and having a glass
over the lace, permitting its inspec
ion. The extensive work of excava
ion at the cemetery has been sus-
pended and workmen are now filling
he lengthy tunnels.

Singapore.-The German liner,
Prince Heinrich, which has arrived
here, reports that at noon on Friday
she sighted the Russian Baltic fleet
anchored in Kamrauh bay coaling. A
Russian cruiser sailed out and made
circuit around the vessel. but did not
stop her There was no attempt made
even to question the officers and in
fact the Russian cruiser did not even
signal the liner. On board the liner
were the Prince and Princess Arise
guwa, who were en- route to Berlin
to attend the wedding of the crown
prince of Germany. There is no doubt
here but that the Japanese are desir-
