WOMAN TRIES To
EMO LIFE WITH
ACID

Despondent because of recent
illness and laboring under the de-
lusion that she was of no further
use on earth, Mrs. Amos West,
1912 Center street, swallowed a
phial of carbolic acid at her home
this morning and is now in a pre-
carious condition. Mrs. West was
found writhing In agony upon q
bed in her home, Immediately
after taking the acid. Neighbors
notified the police, and DR.. Shaver
hurried to the place.
He found the woman severely
burned, with a quantity OF the
acid spilled on her neck and
breast. Emetics were administer
ed and In short time she was
taken out of immediate danger.
DR.. Shaver, realizing that Mrs.
West could not be properly cared
for in her own home, telephoned
for the police ambulance, but
Chief Duley refused to send the
ambulance, declaring that the
roads were unfit for travel. At
q late hour this afternoon Mrs,
West was still at her home, at
tended BY women OF the neighbor-
hood. !.

!, Election supplies are being sent
out today by the city clerk to all
the polling places. An effort will
be made this year to get the polls
open In time and prevent the con-
fusion that has resulted in the
last few elections when judges did
not get ready to receive voters un-
til the election was nearly half
over In some precincts.
As but about half the voters in
the city are registered light vote
will be certainty tomorrow. The
largest proportionate vote is ex-
pected in the Eighth ward where
two candidates are to be chosen.
Sriis Ii due to the election of a
short term man to flll out the
place held by Mr.. Hogberg the
past year, he taking the seat of
G Commissioner McGregor when
that official resigned.
There is chance that the DEM

at its opening session held this
afternoon in Prosecutor McMur-

1t was but the work OF a short
time this morning for the Prose-
cutting Attorney to draw the jury.
Several of the veniremen were ex-
cused upon satisfactory reasons,
but when the seventeen men who
will conduct the present inquisi-
tion had been finally chosen and
sworn in, both Judge Easterday

their satisfaction at the body.

The session, It Is believed, will
be short, but Prosecutor McMur-
ray is prepared to give the grand
jury free rein, he says, and any
matter that may appear dubious
to any member of the jury will be
Investigated.
Any private citizen who has
evidence to give along any line is
requested to send In his name, SO
that the grand jury may formally
subpoena him. 1t is understood
that the members of the jury will

ROOSEVELT I
WALKS IN
ROSES
Great Reception for Ex-
President in Naples
His Path Strew
With Roses

By United Press Leased Wire.
NAPLES, April 5.-All Naples
was in gala attire today to pay
homage to Colonel Roosevelt and
his party of hunters, who arrived
on the big liner Hamburg at 4
o'clock this afternoon, after hav-
ing been delayed for several hours
by storms.
The arrival of Americas ex-
president was the occasion for one
of the most remarkable demon
etrations ever witnessed here.
Visitors focked to Naples from
many distant. points, and the
streets and docks were crowded
with a cheering throng as the
great liner, with the distinguish
ed American aboard, dropped
anchor.
The streets and public buildings
have been draped with the Ameri-
can and Italian flags and the var
ious legations are a riot of color.
Walks on Roses.
No fixed program had been ar
ranged, but the reception was
none the less hearty. Colonel
Roosevelt was met aboard the
Hamburg by representatives OF
the city council and, upon his
landing, he was preceded by a
party of women who strew roses
in his path. The German consul
general extended the personal
greetings of the kaiser, and Am
bassador Griscom represented the
hundreds of Americans who have
gathered here.
Ship Awaits Him.
The steamship Admiral, which
will bear the ex-president to Mo-
bassa lies in the harbor decorated
with a profusion of flags and
bunting. Many gifts and flowers
have been sent to the little ves-
sci, and today a great bunch of
red carnations, the gift of the
German emperor, was placed in
Roosevet's cabin. Because of
the number of visitors in the city,
come difficulty was experienced
by those who had assumed the
task Of securing suitable apart
ments for the Roosevelt party.
The better hotels are packed to
the doors, and only after con-
siderable effort quarters were OBJ
tanned at the Hotel Londres.
Later more suitable apartments
were found at the Excelsior hotel.
After formal addresses Of well
come today by the city authorities
and brief ceremonies the disting-
uished American was taken to the
home of the Duke of Aosta, where
he and his son Kermit are to dine
this afternoon.
Roosevelt seemed to have en-
5oyed his voyage greatly and to be
In the very best of spirits. His
strenu0usness was never more
marked and the crowd were ex-
tremely enthusiastic.

PARIS, April 6.-.Phe expected

Anna Gould, the Princess De

ion expressed today, has shatter-
ed permanently the hope Of Count
Boni De Castellane of a prospec-
tive personal interest in the Gould
millions.
According to the terms Of her

mitted to leave her fortune to any
of her offsprings that she might

family will place her in posi-
tion to meet effectively the per-
sistently unpleasant campaign
which Boni has been waging since
the marriage of his former spouse
to the Prince De Sagan.
Boni is credited with an affec-
tion for his children as sincere
and genuine as his hatred for
De Sagan and this fact is expected
to be instrumental in securing q
cessation of his efforts to estrange
his children from their mother.
: The princess is in the best of
health. and is frequent visitor
to the opera and other public
places. The new heir to the en-
'ormous Gould fortunes is expect
ed to arrive in June or July.
