STREAK OE BAD LUCK

Harrison, March 27.-AlthOugh the courts haven't passed upon the guilt or innocence of Hiram Blanchard, charged with being accessory to the cOunterfeiting operations of his son, supersti- tiOus persons are looking with awe at what they term the hand of fate which they say is being laid upon him in punish ment. Others say that Blanchard is simply having an uncommon run of bad luck and that the counterfeiting charge is mere ly a part of it. Nevertheless Blanchard is simply having an uncommon rur of bad luck and counterfeiting charge against Blanchard is a living example of the old adage that it never rains but it pOurs,
 Following the trouble which came upon him and his son through the serious charges pre- ferred by federal officers which are still hanging over Blanchard his wife died. Following her death came another misfortune when his house was robbed when his house was a deal through for raising money by selling some of his property and about had the trade con- summated it fell through be- cause his deeds and papers had been stolen when the house was burglarized. All of this trouble then caused Blanchard to take seriously ill. His only good luck was that he got well again and he isn't sure that that was lucky.

MRS. CULBERTSON
 TAKES OWN LIFE
Husband and Relatives Admit that Sad. Hearted Bride of Three Months
 Was Not Murdered.

Vincennes, Ind, March 26.-Mrs. Jessie Lee OVerton CulbertsOn woman of mystery, sad-hearted bride of three months was not murdered, but self-slain Of this there iS no doubt. Her husband and relatives tearfully acknow- ledged today that their suspic- ions that she was killed by the instigat tion of another woman for jealous revenge were unfound- ed.
 The body of a minia ture skele- w hich had been attached to the skill found by Mrs. Culbertson, when she was discovered, gag ged in the shed near her home late Wednesday, after swallow ing carbolic acid was picked up late today near the scene of the tragedy, It lay concealed be- meath a pile of debris where the disheartened girl had placed it after she removed the head and attached it to the threatening letter which she thought would lead the authorities to believe she was murdered for revenge.
 This toy skeleton Mrs. Culbert- son is known to have had in her possession months ago. Positive proof that the suicide wrote the anonymous threatening letters to | herself has also been established. AIetter she wrote to her husband from Bridgeport, Ill last sum- mer is written on stationary sim liar to that upon which was pen ned the anonymous letter. The watermark in the paper and en- velopes is the same in all the anonymous notes as that in the sta tionery found in the dead wo- mans trunk. When the water mark was shown to the bereav- ed husband and his parents, they shook their heads and silently yielded to the revela tion that there had been no murder com mitted
 But" said CulbertsOn, "I wish Mrs. Longwell in Chicago, would write an abili so hat l would be satisfied that she had been clear ed of suspicion"
 It was Mrs. Etta Longwell, 7OS Madison street, Chicago, formerly of Vincennes, whom the Culbertson and Joshua BrazeltOn the stepfather of the young hus- band, had been led to suspect,
 Her name should be cleared by all means" said Cu,bertson. I cannot understand why Jessie should kill herself. She never would tell me about her past eX- cept in a general way. She said her father and mother were dead. l have heard that she form eriy lived in Waco and in Dublin, Tex, where she is said to have a brother, l have tried to com municate with relatives, but cannot get any word from them
 Culbertson recalled the fact that he had often walked up in the night to find his wife sob | ping bitterly. 'I would ask her what was the matter and, she would say that she was worried because her relatives would not write to her A letter written he rhusband last summer is cit ed as proof of her dolorous state of mindA
 There is much that is uneX- plained in the letter, but shows that the girl was worried, The only mystery that remains is what was the woman's past she so carefully guarded from the public and where are her rela- | tiypSp"
