INFATUATED WITH GIRL.
Elderly Married Man of Family Killed
Her and Himself,

Pittsburg, April Jealous of II.
year-old girl, Samuel l.. Gardner, aged
SO years, a prominent civil engineer.
residing at McKees Rocks, suburb
of this city, shot the young woman,
Miss Dorothy Yost, through the heart,
causing instant death, and then fired
a bullet into his mouth, dying three
hours later in hospital without hav-
ing regained consciousness.
Gardner, who is a married man with
several grown children, lived next
door to Mrs. Bradney, the girls moth
er. Both Gardner's and Miss Yost's
families are prominent and had been
on the best of terms.
Sunday evening Miss Yost, accom-
panied by young man, attended ser.
vices at the Presbyterian church
where Miss Yost was a member of the
choir. 1t is said that when Gardner
heard of this he became greatly en-
ragged. He arose in excellent spirits
Monday morning, however, according
to his wife, ate his breakfast and after
kissing her left the house and went
to hardware store nearby. Here he
purchased a revolver informing the
clerk he was going to "fx some burg
lars" After leaving the store Gard
ner met the young man who escorted
Miss Yost to church Sunday night
and shaking his fist at him said:
I'm going to get even with YOU"
Gardner made his way past his own
home and entered the Bradney resi-
dence. Miss Yost was on the second
floor and Gardner went to her there.
What passed between them there
will probably never be known. The
next instant a number of persons, in
Guiding Mrs. Bradney and Mrs Gard
ner,. were attracted by two shots.
Rushing into the house they found
| Miss Yost dead and Gardner dying.
Mrs Gardner said that two weeks
ago her husband confessed to her
that he was infatuated with the young
girl. The girls mother, however,
says that Gardner's infatuation has
been Of long standing.
Gardner was borough engineer but
lost his position about a month ago
when the administration changed.
This is also thought to have preyed
upon his mind.

AS 4oth Anniversary.
Announcement was made In New
York city that Andrew Carnegie
would add $5,G0O,O00 to the fund of
the Carnegie Foundation. or what
ever sum might be necessary to in.
clude as pension beneficiaries eligi-
BILE professors of state universities.
No provision was made for this
Ilass of educators in the original
gift for the reason, stated by Mr..
Carnegie at the time, that the donor
thought it possible that such institu-
tions might prefer that their relations
should continue exclusively with the
state from which their chief support
was derived.
This view was not taken by the Ma
tlonal Association of State Universe
ties, which in the year following the
establishment of the foundation petit
toned the trustees for admittance to
the benefits of the retiring allowance
system. 1t was then found that the
earnings of the original fund of SlO,-
100000 were exhausted through the
outlet already planned, and that If the
faculties of all state universities were
to be benefited am additional $5,000,-
600 would be required.
The situation was placed formally
before Mr.. Carnegie by DR.. Henry S.
Pritchett, president of the Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of
Teaching, on March 81 last and on
that same day Mr. Carnegie replied
that the money would be forthcoming
for any state institution whose appli-
cation received the approval of the
legislature and governor of its state.
The additional donation will be in
5-per-cent bonds, so providing an ad
ded annual income of a quarter of a
million dollars and total for yearly
disbursement of $750,000.
The Carnegie Foundation was es-
tablished by Mr.. Carnegie on April 27,
1895, with a gift of a trust fund of
$10,000,00O in 5-per-cent first mort
gage bonds of the United States Steel
Corporation. This fund was placed
IN the care of trustees who include
the presidents of the better known
colleges and universities of the coun-
try.
The revenue of the fund provides
pensions for teachers of universities,
colleges and technical schools in the
United States, Canada and Newfound-
land, who are retired after twenty
five years service or having reached
the age of Go years have taught fifteen
years preceding. From the benefits
of the trust were excluded institutions
| supported by state or colonial govern
ment and schools under sectarian
control.

Order to Surrender Diamond Formula

OTQcT 10 SURRENDER Dldf1OHu Formula.
The magistrate of the Bow Street
police court in London has issued
an order to the bank in that city
which holds the envelope alleged to
contain Henry LeMoyne's formula
for the manufacture of diamonds to
surrender this document to the French
authorities demanding it. LeMoyne
is under arrest in Paris charged with
obtaining money under false pretences
from Sir julius Chalres Wernher of
the De Beers Mining company. The
original demand for the envelope in
question was made March 23, since
which time the Bow Street magistrate
has consulted with the home Office
and as a result issued the order of Fri
day. Counsel for the bank brusquely
declined to obey the order. The mag
istrate admitted that he had not the
power to compel obedience, but he in
timated that the matter would be TAX
en- before a higher authority.

LOST MINE

Last week c. r. Archer and asso-
eiates made discoveries that convinced
them that they could locate a lost cabin
and tunnel on the old reservation near
Hawthorne. A. l.. Chappell and John
Herman were sent to locate the ground
and were successful. They located the
old tunnel, and by clearing away the
dirt at the mouth were able to go in
l25 feet. The only evidence they
could find of former occupation was a
paper dated 1883. The ledge was
traced for 1900 feet and some very fine
and rich samples of silver bearing rock,
some going as hifh as 800 ounces, were
secured. The quartz carries some gold
and lead. Arrangements will be made
at once to open the property and work
it.-Ycrington Times.
