CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Philadelphia Woman Alleged to Have
Poisoned Her Children.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, November D.
Murder-the cold, deliberate poisoning or
her two children, Mary. eight years old.
and Annie, six years old-is the charge
which the police have lodged against Mrs
Mafv Carey. a young widow of No. 1s42
Hamilton street, who was arraigned before
MAGISTRATE Eisenbrown this afternoon.
There is also a strong suspicion in the
minis of the authorities that this woman
is responsible for the deaths of three others
her husband and Patrick and Cecelia
Cook brother and sister, with whom she
lived in the Hamilton street house. Arsenic,
II is said, was employed in each of the
five cases, and the motive advanced by the
police Is insurance money. To OBTAIN tne
various sums for which the children were
insured Mrs. Carey is alleged to have poll
soned them.
At the hearing this woman was repre-
scented by John r. K. Scott. although she
herself had retained Attorney Edwin ABB
6oIt to look after her interests. Scott was
engaged by Mrs. Carey's cousin
Mrs. Carey spent a restless night In the
cell, and today showed signs OF weep.hs
and loss of sleep. To Attorney AbDott she
made a lengthy statement. in which she oe-
MED ali the accusations and repeatedly as
serted her innocence of any crime.

The Art Of Introduction.

There are few people who have not suf-
fered at one time or another by the off-hand
manner In which they were introduced to
others. This kind of Introduction Is likely
to embarrass some people, just as the care
IN, and gracious introduction is one of the
essentials in putting strangers at ease.
In introducing people the greatest care
should be taken to pronounce both names
distinctly. If one name has escaped the In
PRODUCERS memory, 1t Is safest and best to
excuse oneself and ask for the forgotten
name The most delicate sensbilities should
not be wounded by such slip of memory,
for who is there who has not at some time
or another quite forgotten well-known
name? says Woman's Life.
The debatable question as to whether
woman should shake hands with man who
"a being presented to her has been solved by
making it only obligatory for the woman to
offer her hand to the man when the occa-
sion Ia Informal and the man is being intro
duced to one person at a time. When he Is
meeting a group of people 1t makes 1t en-
barrassing and awkward to shake hands
with all.

The Way the Lumber Goes.
From Leslie's Weekly


That our lumber supply. one of the larg-
est sources of our national wealth. is In
danger of practical REIMBURSEMENT before
many years seems clear from a recent re-
port of the Department of Agriculture Ac-
cording to this showing the lumber cut in
this country up to the beginning of the fis-
cal year was about u. 73s. 100000 feet. The
vast proportions Of this slaughter Of the
forests may be appreciated by imaginins
the lumber to be all of inch thickness. max
ing a board walk 1900 feet wide from
New York to San Francisco. Maine, Michi-
gan and New York are no longer great lum-
her states, ranking respectively sixteenth,
fifth and twenty-first. The Pacific slope
and the gulf lead, Washington being the
chief lumber state and Louisiana the sec
ond. Wisconsin and Minnesota are third
and fourth. Arkansas, Mississippi. North
Carolina Texas, Alabama, Georgia and
Virginia make, with Louisiana, eight south
ern states all of which lead Maine In the
amount of lumber produced There Is little
more white pine in the country. II Is prac-
tically all gone and one of the difficulties
OF building now Is that there is no substi-
tute of quite such versatile usefulness.

it's mighty pleasant right where he is and
that's enough. This negligence and indif-

care and who have selfish ends to serve.
All the deals and Vaccinations that make
