TRUTH STRANGER THAN FICTION"
In the country.

A realistic dramao of startling interest vas unfdded by the discovery of the
body Of a murdered young woman in a creek At St Micha1s Maryland. The
woman vas talented, beautiful and well connected. Suspicion fell upo a man
who had been seen in her company when she disappeared. The suspected man
himself, was encountered by a POSSE nj met a tragical death Then
it became known hat lie had been living under an assumed name, and that he
"a Robert E. Eastman, a New York broke, d a fugitive from justice, who
had formerly lived in Bergen county n whose wfei lives in New York. The
tragedy of Elsie sBe is merely the story of abnormal infatuauon by a young
girl and oil the satanic craft and cruelty of a Chnaman. The interest he story
exctesi is revolving to the mind. There is n o matenal in it for the novelist In
the latter case We have for characters a beautiful n accomplished young
woman, only lately a bride, and the protegeo OF distinguished men for her musical
talents a husband in California; a stock broker indicted in New York for
fraud and a fugitive, who changes his name and passes himself off in a
quiet Maryland community, where he has established a bungalow, as a maya
writer. He is supposed to be a nan of means and he is a mn of some
literary accomplishment What a the motive of he murder? What led up
o It? A note left by tn suspected murderer tells of a party of five in his
bungalow, n charges h murder to a woman in the party. The mystery #
this tragedy may never be revealed. Death seals the lips Of murderer and
victim. But hencdorth h story will pass into local tradition, n it will De
overs n over again at country frehdes for the next hundred years.

Men Who Bald Oar BRIDGES


TN Harpers for July Edward Hungerford describes the building OF one
4 OF the huge modern bridges. OF the men VIII built it h writes:
ID Looking closely, ne could see a change in the type OF mel who
were to cav he bridge. Scandina vians might toll as 'sandhogs in the
bottom of the stream, Lithuanians might mine the ore and Hungarians ron it
into stee-Amercans would build unon al their toll and erect the bridge.
These bridge builders spoke no unfamiliar tongue They were thu product
of Ohio, the Middle West, the SOUTH, New England; they rose mmeasur
ably SUPERIOR to every ther class of labor employed upon tn work. Some of
them had been sailors. and their talk had thu w of the sea. All of them
were men,, men every inch of them, clear-headed, coolheaded, uue-headed
men.
IF % can uon them at lunch hour, sitting high in the scafddings
that surrounded the unfinished towers, GU were impressed by two things
their Amercanfsm an. their cosmopontanism. The first of these as writ
upon each nan as you looked al him; Ii second became evident in talk
with them.
This big fellow had been a sheriff out in Montana. n h e mus have
beena sheriff for bad men to dodge; his neghbor wa talking abou his last
job-a railroad cantlever down in Peru. The two side partners owe by the
TOO box we're Jut Jack from India. American bridge building talent encir-
c1est he world. Here la a boss who got his first training OF the Thebes
bridge down in Egypt and his asdstant did I'M big work on The Trans
Siberian
These brdge-bunders like the city. They like to perch themselves above
a busy river where folk Of all the craft nay see them N appreciate
1t is a wonderful task, bridge building in a crowded community, far more
ntertaining n wonderful for the workmen han spanning some lonely
Western canyon and bunking it in camp Brdge-buiders appreciate good
living quite a. much as other folk"

by the necessity of fighting mosquitoes The oldest inhabitant accustomed to

1t would be tedious TO dwell on the

on the sIrightly attitudes by which
birds of all sorts LEI Off their spirits
when shower and sunshine have over
filled their hearts with gladness. But
birds twilch their tails constantly,
without nearing anything By it. The
ceaseless Wagging OF a wagtail is a
mere habit. of c-heerfulaess, like the
twirling of her thumbs by an idle
Scotchwoman. The long tail is there
and something must be done with it.
Look at the embarrassment which a
nervous young man shows about a dis
posal of his hands; 0 he thrusts
them into his trousers pockets, hangs
them by their thurnbs from the arm
holes of his waistccat, or gives them a
walking-stick to Ilay with. | like to
imagine what such a fellow would do
with a long tail if he had it-how he
would wind it round each leg in turn,
rub up his back hair. and describe
figures on the floor. But no animal so
~self-oonsc,ous as man could bear up
long under the nervous strain of having
to think continually of its tail. It would
die young and the race would become

conversion of thu river into a sewer dnch put an md to he useo of the Passac
for steamboats, and as a public park. What a blessing THAT use would have been
this wk 20 thousands of people! When the trunk sewer shall have been com
phted and the river cleaned of It's sewage filth the population along tn Passac
will reahze h great. loss that has been sustained all these years by reason of
pollution. Something will then be done to give public ark features to h river

lined with boat club houses, will again ome into vogue the clubs will reorganize
and picturesque races will again be rowed IN a course that is one of thu best
