DRINKS POISON
WOMAN SWALLOWS STRYcHNINE
WHILE OUT WITH HUSBAND
UNACC0UNTABLE TRAGEDY
on Street of Ouray, and Never
Reqains consciousness.

Ouray, Colo-While walking along
the main street with her husband, and
unknown to him, Mrs. Michael Collins.
a well known young woman and prom
inent church worker, swallowed a
quantity CT strYchnine, dying a few
hours laleI at the home of friend.
She walked nearly a block after tax
ing the drug, it is said, and then fell
in faint The cause OF her act is not
known.
Doctor Rowan, who attended the wo
man, has signed the death certificate.
and it is probable that no inquest viii
be held. Although several persons
have reported that they saw the wo-
man take the poison, the coroner is
investigating that she had been tax
ing medicine containing strychnine
and that an overdose caused death.
The husband is griefstricken and
unable TO account for the action of his
wife. He says their life was always
happy, cut numerous rumOrs are in
circulation to the effect that they had
quarreled. Considerable mystery sur
rounds the case inasmuch as the off
cials have been unable as yet to find
the bottle which contained the drug,
or discover where it was purchased.
Mrs. Collins made no statement fur
ther than to say that she had sw1l-
lowed poison. It was on Seventh ave
nue. where the drug was supposed to
have beal taken, and on reaching Sec
ond stree the woman complained.

nCs'ng that she had merely tainted,
Collins ran TO the home of Peter

was at the time, and summoned help
With the assistance of Schneider
Mrs. Collins was carried to the house
and the doctor called. He applied
stimulan.s, and recovering conscious
ness for Z moment, she said Il took

Mrs. Collins was the daughter OF
Mrs Louis Hohl, and was born in
Ouray Her foster father was for
years in the grocery business in this
city, but recently sold out and is now
living on a ranch in the north end of
the county. The family is among thd

ROCKEFELLER GIVES $3.50 600 ,oOG
Charity and Education Comes in for
PrinceiY Donations.

New YOrk.-John D. Rockefeller, ac-
cording to reliable authority, proposes
soon to make 4 princely gift to New
York City. 1t will amount to at least
100000. 1t will be partly Chari-
table and partly educational.
The Herald quoting "a man well in
formed, says;
This man said that when Mr.. Rock
efeller was comforting with his son at
Lakewood, Now Jersey, a fortnight
age, the meeting was not for tht pur-
pose of discussing any Immediate gift,
but was on the subject of Mr. Rookie
feller's will, which document the oil
king was then completing, with the aid
of his son ana his lawyers.
1T was said that this document viii
astonish the world when it is made
public, 1t will, II is declared, give 40
less than s250OOO, 900 for charitable
and educational purposes, and 1t will
be so bestowed that the benefit there
from will almost be perpetual.
The manner In which these be
quests will be bestowed is said to be
mainly educational and charitable.
While there are some contributions for
religious purposes. it is stated that Mr..
Rockefeller does not think it necessary
TO extend any great financial aid to
churches. He thinks the churches are
growing steadily stronger and that
there is no danger that they will ever
need any great financial assistance
from one man.
'Mr Rockefeller, however. is said to
be much in favor OF the growth of edu-
cation. and to the furtherance of this
end, he has done much in his will He
believes that education will make this
country the greatest in the world, and
that every cent contributed toward
that object will help to make better
citizens and better Christians.
"As to the charitable bequests. 1t
was said some time ago that Mr.. Rock
ofeller had in mind building model ten
ements for the purpose of such as have
been erected in some European cities.
''In his will the Herald's informant
states Mr. Rockefeller has provided
these three things-bequests for relig-
ious purposes. though not of large
sums liberal bequests for education,
and what are described as princely be-
quests for charitable purposes. 1t is
said that there is scarcely a man.
woman or child that will not benefit in
some way by these prospective dnna-
tions"

A New Chicago Conspiracy
est. Paul Pioneer Press.)

But for the Chicago conspiracy to
deplete the great lakes thru its swift
water drainage and power canal the
northwest would at least offer no OBJ
lection to the continuation of the pro-
posed f~ourteen-foot channelN from st.
Louis to Lake Michigan. althO the in
terest of this region in that portion of
the proposed water way is only such
as it has in the general development
of the nations opportunities. But no
snowy s~pectacles. any more than Chi
cago's brazen clamor, will move the
northwest to consent to anything more
than a slack-water canal of the re-
auired depth. Chicago's alleged in
terest in lakes to the gulf" navigation
would disappear with the denial of a
big current for power purposes. The
new water way would in effect oper-
ate as a "cut-off.' doing away with
much handling of freight on which
Chicago now makes a profit. There
fore it is not unlikely that when Chi
cago finds she ann do as she wills
with the lake waters, she will turn
against the whole lakes to the gulf
scheme.

London's Grim Figures.
(Outing Magazine)

C"
There are other figures. grimly elo-
uuent. There is a standing armY as
the phrase goes. of $4,000 unemployed:
add. still. 10000 women badly employed
indeed. and $4,000 homeless adults, and
q. 1000 wandering children of the slums.
and $1,000 free criminals. and you
have before you a statistical summary
of the situation in the greatest city
in ChriStendom. Interesting. is it
not? And with those who do not walk
the streets o night things are only a
degree better. 1t is a fact that 80 per
cent of the producers of the actual
wealth of London have nc homes they
can call their w beyond the weeks
end and no other possessions than the
few sticks of old furniture that will
go into a hand cart for %trundling from
lodging to lodging. And 300, 900 people
live in one-room tenements. in which
decency is impossible. Every night
10000 Londoners sleep in four-penny
lodging houses-the fourpenny "doss''
and every night 1000 sleep in the
casual wards. Where should they sleep
these secondary millions? In London
there are 1,292.737 workers who get
less than IS a week per family.
