Girls Infatuation Brings Her to
 Arson, Theft and Suicide.
WRITES HER OWN ROMANCE

Leaves Manuscript Telling Story O..
 Her Life-Enamored of Basket Ball
 Player, She Follows Him From Place
 to Place.
 Fort Plain, N. r., March 7.-In writ. ing the romance of Ruby Reed" Elsie Kimball, seventeen years old, who killed herself in her grandmother home here, wrote the tragedy of her own life. The girl committed suicide by swallowing quantity of strych- nine, and when the police were in- formed of her death they searched the room she had engaged in a hotel be. fore she went home. They found q suit case in which were two notes, which told plainly why the girl had swallowed poison. The letters, which were meant to tell the life story of a fictitious character, Ruby Reed" re- vealed that Elsie Kimball committed suicide because she thought it was more romantic to die than to live with out the man she loved It is believed the girl was mentally deranged. On the night of Feb 27 she set fire to the home of her grandmother, Mrs. Charles Nellis, with whom she had lived for ten years, and during the ex- citement which followed she took $500 from the house and disappeared.
 Returned Home Suddenly.
 Search for her was immediately be- gun by the police, but no trace of her was found. She returned home as suddenly as she went away. She told her grandmother that she had been travelling around this section of the state since her disappearance, devot ing almost all her time to watching basket ball games, of which she was exceedingly fond.
 She had witnessed games in Syra- cuse, Elmira and Oswego, she said Of the money which she took away only $51 remained. She also had two rings, which she had purchased during the last few days. Early in the morning the grandmother was aroused by groans coming from the girls room and found Elsie dying. She had swal- lowed forty-fve grains of strychnine.
 Made Criminal by Love.
 Until she went to a basket ball game six weeks ago and met a young man with whom she became infatuated, Elsie Kimball was a matter of fact country girl. Love aroused all the dor mant romance in her nature, and in or der to be with the object of her af- fections she turned firebug and thief. Her pilgrimage from place to place was made in trying to find the mem- Der of the basket ball team with whom she had become smitten. The girl fol- lowed him from town to town, but she arrived in each town after he had gone. She became discouraged, bought q quantity of strychnine and returned to her home in Fort Plain, where she ended her romance in the terrible ago ny of strychnine poisoning.
