Weeping out his hearts sorrow over
a tiny bit of a bier, so small that
IL could be hidden by bouquet OF
ordinary size, tossed across the foot

Maurice A. Growdy, a trouper, was
last night enacting an unusual role
in this city. Within the little casket
before him is contained the remains
of his wife, known to the stage as

This morning at S5s0V O'clock, after
a Caesarian operation, the little
wife became mother UThree hours
after the operation she fondled the
dmpled little six-poHnd child at her
side Then the infant was placed
in a baby incubator for its future
development At 3 o'clock in the
Afternoon the hospital nurse noted a
restlessness in the little mother.
Five minutes later She died.
Maurice A. Growdy, the husband,
is 25 years of age, and from Shelby
Vile, Ind. His unusual size and
height caused him to be attracted to
the stage. Princess -Nouma" was

educated, speaking French, Hungar-
ian, Italian and English mluently.
