Sensational Suicide Of Merchant.

Sensational suicide OF Merchant.
Savannah, ILL.,. May 27.-Bothwell
Pulford, reported to be the wealthiest
citizen of Savannah, committed sui
eide today few moments after being
questioned regarding the whereabouts
of a revolver with which he is sus-
pected of staying Attorney Dan S.
Berry, former leading member of the
Illinois legislature.
Pulford had denied any knowledge
of the killing of Berry, but became
agitated when questioned concerning
the revolver. The story has been
widely circulated that Berry was kill
ed as a result of attention paid by
him to a married woman.
Pulford arose early today and went
to his store. He appeared to be work.
ing under a great strain. After open
ing the doors of the store and of the
safe, he placed the money in the cash
register and was leaving by the back
door when a newspaper correspond
ent stopped him.
"Mr. Pulford, l would like to ask
you one question in regard to your
revolvers," he said.
II can't talk to you now" said Pull
ford. II am going to the house to get
breakfast, but l will be back in just
a minute"
Mr.. Pulford appeared to be in haste
and turned quickly and walked to-
ward his home. Fifteen minutes lat
err a report was heard in the street
and when an Investigation was made
PulfOrd was found dead.

Late auppere

Late suppers. 80 fal from being
harmful in all cases, are no doubt in
some decidedly beneficial. The old
tradition that to eat anything before
going to bed was sure to cause indi-
gestion and render sleep impossible
is happily exploded. It is not good,
in fact, to 60 to bed with the stomach
SO loaded with undigested food will
render one restless, but something
of a light, palatable nature in the
stomach is one Of the best aids to
Quietude and rest.
The process Of indigestion goes ON
in sleep with as much regularity as
when one is taking violent exercise to
aid it, and SO something in the stom-
ach is very desirable condition for
a nights rest.
Some physicians have declared In
deco, that good deal of the preva-
lent insomnia is the result Of an un-
conscious craving of the stomach
for food in persons who havev been
unduly frightened by opinions that
they must not eat upon going to bed,
or who have, like many nervous wo-
men, been keeping themselves in a
state of semi-starvation-
Nothing is more agreeable on re-
firing for the night than to take q
bowl of hot soup or oatmeal Cruel.
1t is positive aid to nervous people,
and induces peaceful slumber. This
is especially the case in cold winter
nights, when the stomach Graves
warmth as much as any other part of
the body.
Even a glass of hot milk is CRATE
full to the palate on such occasions,
but light, well-cooked cruel, is better.
and during the cold months of winter
should be the retiring food of every
woman who feels, as many do, the
need of food at night.

NAMING THE
Il JUpITHRIVER
WITH LEWIS AND CLARK ONE
HUNDRED YEARS AGO LAST
MONDAY.

One hundred years ago last Mon.
day, Lewis and Clark, ON their mem
orable journey through this unknown
land to the coast, camped in what is
now Fergus county. An extract from
their journal for that date says:
From the journal.
Last night We were alarmed by a
new sort Of enemy. A buffalo swan
over from the opposite side, and to
the spot where lay one of our canoes.
over which he clamored to the shore;
then, taking fright, he ran full speed
up the bank toward our fires and
passed within 10 inches of the heads
of some of the men before the SEN
final could make him change his
course. Still more alarmed, he ran
down between our fires, and within
a few inches of the heads of a second
row of men, ana would nave broken
into our lodge IL the barking of the
dog had not stopped him. He sud
denly turned to the right and was
out OF sight in a moment, leaving us
all In confusion, everyone selling his
rifle and inquiring the cause of the
alarm. On learning what had hap
pened, we had to rejoice at suffering
no more injury than some damage
to the guns that were in the canoe
which the buffalo crossed.
"Judith's River"
I'VE passed an island and two sand
bars, and at the distance of two and
half miles, came to a handsome riv-
er, which discharges itself on the
south, and which we assembled to the
distance of a mile and nalf; we call
ed 1t Judith's river. It rises in the
Rocky mountains, in about the same
place with the Musselshell, and near
the Yellowstone river. Its entrance
is one hundred yards wide from one
bank to the other, the water occupy
ing about Is yards, and being in great
er quantity than that of the Mussel-
shell river. There were great num-
bers of the argalea, or big-horned ami
mails, in the high country through
which it passes, and of beaver in its
waters. Just above the entrance of 1t
we saw the ashes of the fires of 126
lodges, which appeared to have been
deserted about IL or Is days."
How River Was Named.
1t is related that, in honor of a
beautiful girl in Virginia, to whom
a lieutenant in the United States
army, attached to the expedition, was
engaged, the river described was NAM
ed "Judith's (not Judith) river"
What is known as the Marias river,
was, in the same way, named
Maria's, the possessive having been
dropped in time, although the IS" still
remains.

The Grouping Of Food.

Many otherwise excellent "provid-
ers" do not seem to understand the
grouping of food, says Harper's Ba-
zaar. This may seem an odd ex.
preston, but it means just this, the
keeping of meals to an average as far
as their nourishing qualities are con-
cerned. For instance, the heavy.
rich soups. such as pea. bean. mock
turtle and oxtail. should be reserved
for the days when the meat course Is
lighter or even absent altogether.
To serve a thick, black bean soup
with a roast beef dinner one day and
q light cream soup with fish dinner
the next is not maintaining the aver.
