Future America.

From the London Truth.
 The new Bank of England is Americal If we propose to build a railway we have to go to the United States for the neces- sary capital. If we wish to develop some industrial concern we apply to an Amerl- can finaneier for assistance. If we have to sell large property, valuable picture, a rare work of art or a celebrated race horse we offer 1t to an American million aire. If any well known bachelor among us is in pecuniary difficulties it Is to the United States that he hurries to find Il bride with fortune. If a more obscure Englishman is unable to earn a living In this country, 1t Is to the Unked States that he generally crosses to obtain em- ployment.
 It is probable that at the very least America will have twice as much wealth and power in twenty years hence as she has acquired in the past twenty years. If so, what country will then be her equal? "The Future of the United States would be useful subject for some essay writer to deal with, for an American that is twice as rich, as powerful and as popu- lous; that has double the fleet of men-of- war and merchantmen. and that does dou- ble the trade with the outside world that the America of today has and does will be monster among the nations.

DYING IN ARMS OF HER LOVER
Girl Commits Suicide Because Love
Spurnsd

AIpharetta, Ca, Nov - A low
srs misunderstanding is the cause of
very sad tragedy in the southern
part Of Forsyth county, about miles
from Alpharetta, in the death from
suicide Of Miss Minnie Webb, the
beautiful 16-year-oid daughter of Mr..
Henry Webb, a widely known and
popular farmer.
For number of year Miss Webb
and Mr.. Speer Stone, the son of Mr..
and Mrs. George Stone, and near
neighbor, had been sweethearts, and
their devotion was a constant source
or favorable comment, as both were
extremely popular in the community.
They were constant companions and
attended together the village church.
On the way to and from church
Miss Webb appeared in extremely
happy spirits and smiled in light
hearted joy on all who she passed.
Consequently one can imagine how
sudden was the shock which came to
all when it was known that Minnie
Webb had shot herself shortly after
dinner, and the family hearing the re-
port of gun and rushing to her room
had found her lying across the bed in
a dying state.
She stated that her sweetheart had
told her that he did not love her, and
as resort she had shot herself.
The dying girl sent for her sweet
heart, AIR. Stone. He arrived al
most prostrated over the sad intelli-
gence and protested that he was only
trying to tease her and thought her
threat to kill herself in answer to his
statement was only an attempt to
worry him.
However, the explana ions proved
too late, and in her lovers arms the
fair young 16year-old girl died.
The fatal shot was fired from a sin
gle-barreled shotgun. The young
lady was highly accomplished and
was greatly loved by all.

ALMOST sMoTHERED TO DEATH
Man Fell Into Grain Pit and In Try
ing to Rescue Himself Sank Deeper
and Deeper to His Death, the Grain
Completely Burying Him.

New York, Nov. C.-Patrick Do
Ian, foreman of the srain handlers
in the elevator of the William Baird
company, Brooklyn, fell into a pit
containing 5000 bushels of grain.
The little kernels, rolling against
one another like miriads of cogs of
a great machine, grasped his feet,
his ankles, his legs, his knees, cro-
winding each other like honey cells,
held him fast and drew him down
with power that was irresistible.
Dolan plunged this way and that and
with every step the quicksand- like
little grains gripped him more firm
ly. He called for help, and Petro
Amazio, a fellow worker, went to his
assistance. He threw rope to Do
Ian which the lated seized so des-
perately that he drew Amazio into
the pit.
Other workmen who had been to
lunch, now heard the outcries, but
both men had disappeared.
A rush was made for the chutes
through which the grain was unload
ed, and unfastening the covers the
men let the wheat run into the street.
Soon Amazio's body shot down the
chute and Dolan's followed.
The latter was dead, having ben
smothered, but Amazio was still alive
and will recover.
