tween the covers of sensational ro-

petty swindle or the feeble and senseless
hoax.

Miss May Williams, the IT.
year-old daughter Of Mrs. Sci
Mead Of Kansas City who was
recently married TO the popular
G. & A. conductor OF Slater, COM
mitted suicide last Thursday
rather than allow herself to be
sent to the reform school.
At her fathers death she fell
heir to $4,000 which she would
have received soon. When her
mother married again she seems
to have become obstinate and rs
her mother could do nothing
with her decided to seni her to
a reform school. At the same
time she was planning to marry
and her wedding was set for FRI
day. AZ the officer arrived to
take her to Chlllicothc, Miss wiz
liams excused herself a minute,
slipped off to n drug store
bought the acid and went home
where she drained the bottle IN
the presence OF hcr mother and
the officer, dying In n few min
utes In terrible pains.
In a beauty contest held re-
Gently Miss Williams was voted
the most beautiful young lady
In Missouri and she is said Ia
have been unsuually attractive
Sci Mead the conductor who re-
Gently married the girls moth
or. Is very well known by the
travelling public and Is an old
resident OF Slater. He was pre-
sented with a very costly dia-
mond by the G. & A. officials sew
Ieral years ago as being the most
popular conductor on the road
iOf late h, has hal an unusual
amount OF trouble and free adver
4 tising. He recently got a de-
vorce from his wife to marry
Mrs. Williams. 1t Is sad to think
of so promising young person
