TOOK HER ADVICE;

Miss Cora Karma Advised

Persons who advance all kinds Of
theories as to how Miss Cora Karma,
"the girl with the sixth sense" can
read what others have written or may
be thinking Of. are at their wits end
in formulating an opinion as to the
manner in which she correctly replies
to so many of the varied questions
asked her.
AS a result OF acting upon the advice
Of Miss Karma, a well-known man
about town is just S191 70 "the good"
He attended Miss Karma's perform
ance at the Grand on Monday evening
and asked whether he should sell or
buy his favorite stock the following
day. He was told to sell. I'm thank
full to Miss Karma to more than the
extent of a hundred and ninety-one
dollars" he said, "and my only regret
is that I couldn't have gone deeper
into the transaction"
at the ladies' matinee Wednesday a
Miss Vandegrift asked: Il have on my
right arm a bracelet To whom does
II belong?" Miss Karma told her that
II had been lost only a short time be-
fore on Market street by young lady
known to Miss Vandegrift. The owner
by this time had taken her place in the
audience, having come to the Grand
with the hopes of getting information
about her keepsake. The result was
that Miss Karma named both inter-

HIS STORY
Sad Ending Of Life Supposed
to Have Been Pure

Peoria, ILL.,, Feb. REV. DR.. G. H
Simmons, pastor of the First Baptist
church, president of the Interstate
Savings bank and the Peoples Savings
bank and recently appointed manager
of the Yates senatorial campaign in
Peoria county, was found dead in bed,
having committed suicide during the
night.
The body was found by his wife
when she called him to breakfast. A
letter found beside him showed his
death to have been premeditated.
Three physicians who were hastily
summoned gave as their opinion that
death was caused by cyanide of potas-
SUM. Coroner Baker took charge of
the remains. ..
The Peoples Savings bank, of which
workmen's quarter Of the city, did not
open it's doors during the morning
Cashier Look said it would remain
closed until some future action was
determined on. There was a run on
the bank the previous day and by 10
a.. m. large crowd surrounded the
building, clamoring for their money.
Second Bank Pays Depositors.
The Interstate Savings bank, OF
which he was president up to Monday
when his resignation was accepted and
q. C. Heidrich elected in his stead
was also the object of run, but de-
positors are being paid as fast as pos.
sible.
DR.. Simmons came to the First Bap.
list church five years ago from Terre
Haute, Ind, and had been remarkably
successful. He secured national pub
1fcity two years ago by advocating q
dramatization of the life of Christ. He
became local manager of the sena,
torial campaign of former Governor
Yates a week ago, shortly after seri
GUS stories affecting his morals were
circulated. States Attorney Scholes
undertook an investigation and Sc
cured some sensational confessions
from boys of his congregation. DR.
Simmons was forty years old ant
leaves widow. He held charges In
Texas, Jackson, Tenn, and Louisville
KY, before coming here.

Colombia Wants Recompense for Ssps

Colombia Wants Recompense for sspa'
ration of Panama.
Washington, Feb. 7.-Colombia has
again renewed her demand for recon.
pense from the United States because
of the separation of Panama. This
last application was submitted to Sec.
rotary Root recently by Senior Diego
Mendoza. 1t is said to be in general
terms similar to the presentment
originally made by General Reyes, the
present executive head of Colombia
when he was in Washington last veal
as a special commissioner and minis
ter from Colombia.
While this last presentment is in
the nature Of claim against the
United States government, the amount
of the damages sustained by the par
ent state on account Of Panama's Sc
cession is not set down.
Secretary Root has the last note I'm
der consideration, but it is believed
that nothing has occurred to change
the position originally taken by the
state department in this matter, name
ly, that the United States was in nc
way responsible for the separation Of
Panama.

DETAILS
OF Northern Pacific Wreck
Near Helena Yesterday
List Of Dead

Helena, Mont, Feb. THE most
disastrous wreck that has taken place
in the vicinity of Helena for many
years occurred shortly before mid
night two and half miles west of
Helena.
A runaway Northern Pacific freight
train crashed into passenger train
on the same line, wrecked it complete
ly, set fire to it and caused the death
Of at least four persons. The dead
are: J. N. Robinson, Missoula;
Charles Brickle, conductor passenger
train; J. A. Jessup, express messen-
ger; Foster Senegal, merchant of Ell
liston. None Of the passengers who
escaped with their lives was seriously
injured.
The passenger train passed through
Austin. about eight miles west of Hell.
ena, on time Following it was long
freight train made up of box and fiat
cars loaded with lumber and shingles.
At Austin the engine was uncoupled
from the freight to take water and
the train was left standing On the
track. There is steep grade east of
Austin and by some means the freight
train got started down the hill
Engineer Attempts to Get Away.
The passenger train stopped when 1t
arrived at the Montana Central cross
ing and the engineer heard a sound
behind him that warned him of dan.
ger. He started his train but it had
gone but few feet when the freight
crashed into the rear car. There were
but two cars in the train and they
were smashed and thrown into the
ditch. The engine became uneoupleG
but did not leave the track and Engi
neer Petty managed to keep ahead Of
the flying freight. The freight wen1
probably 500 feet when 1t, too, weni
off the track. In a few minutes fire
started and for hours the cars and the
lumber burned hercely.
Express Messenger Jessup, pinned
under the burning Wreckage, was alive
and conscious when rescuers reached
the scene, but heroic efforts to release
him before the flames reached him
were futile and he was burned tt
death before the eyes of the borrifiet
spectators. The bodies of the Other
victims were consumed,
