CALLED IN DREAM.
GIRL COMMITS SUICIDE RATHER THAN WED ANOTHER AFTER
 NOCTURNAL VISION.

PlTTSBURG, Pa, March l.--De claring that her childhood lover called her in her dream and warned he not to break her promise by marrying an other man, whom her parents had chosen for her, Smila Hartfield, Russian girl, of Duquesne, last night announced to the wedding guests assembled at her father s house that there would be no wedding.
 The father, beside himself with anger is said to have forced the girl into a room with Milo Kulki, the tilted one, telling them to come to some agreement, and declared that as the wedding guests were on hand he would not have them disappointed.
 The girl escaped from the room, and an hour later was found dead in the cellar with her throat cut. All parties concerned are well-to-do Russians. The father of the girl explains that his daughter plightcd her troth to anoth- CT in Russia, and that she had wanted to wait for him to come to her. The father, however, saw what he consider. ed an advantageous marriage for his daughter, and tried to induce her to accept.

BASKETBALL GAME
AT HIGH SCHOOL
Pearsons Academy and "High" Will
Meet Tonight in Second Con-
tests of Series.

For the second time this season. the
squad from Pearsons academy will take
on the High school aggregation in a
basketball contest. The game is to-
night in the High school gymnasium,
and as this is a familiar floor, it is
expected that the five from High will
put up stronger game than they did
during the last mill. No changes are
to be made in the lineup and with the
exception of a different floor, the game
will probably be a repetition of the
last one, with the possible exception
that the High school lads will display
stronger system of play. They were
not up to standard last week, this fact
being excused by many because the
boys were overturned and stale, but it
is assured that they will have no OPP
portunities for sleep walking in the
fast contest that will be pulled off to-
night at o'clock.

er who met him on his arrival was
asked in this regard several times.
Can Jeffries get into shape?" john
son inquired, and only a shrug of the
shoulders greeted the query. Next
moment Johnson replied with emphasis
to a local interviewer:

other man.

got no kick coming. But, on the square
they seemed to think more of Tommy
Burns after I had licked him, giving
him such a licking as anybody ever
had, than they did of me, and me the
champion. That was a funny stunt
about me finding comfort in Shakes
