wife Of Pierre lori|Iard, To-
bacco Magnate, a Suicide
ASPHYxIAT|0N THE METHOD
Weary Of Society and Feared
49, Physical Breakdown.

Washington, March 26.-Weary Of
the gay whirl of society and face to
face as she believed with years of
physical suffering, Mrs. Pierre Loril-
lard, Jr., aged forty-nine, wife Of the
tobacco magnate, committed suicide
by asphyxiation at her home near the
fashionable Du Pont circle in this
city. Her tragic death has shocked
the first social circles Of the capital
as nothing. else in years. The mem
bers of the Lorillard family, famous
because of it's wealth, are gathering
here to mourn over the unexpected
blow. In spite of the coroner's certi-
dcate of death by suicide, members
of the family declare that Mrs. Loril-
lard died of heart failure.
The death was made more dramatic
by occurring only few hours after
Mr.. and Mrs. Lorillard had been the
guests of Mrs. Townsend on Massa-
chusetts avenue at dinner given in
honor Of Lady Paget. In fact, it is
believed that as soon as Mrs. Loril-
lard arrived at her home at 1880 Hill
yer place she began to prepare for
her death.
The butler in the Lorillard resi-.
dence detected an odor Of gas permeat.
ing the rooms. With little difficulty
the origin of the fumes was traced to
Mrs. Iorillard's apartments. Opening
the door of the bathroom, just off her
suite, the butler was Mortified to be
hold the body of the mistress of the
house stretched out ]ifeless on the
floor. Her face was turned to the mat
on the floor.

DOZEN KILLED BY TORNADO
Score Of Other Persons Badly Injured
in Texas

Dallas, Tex, March 25.-Twelve
known dead, property loss reaching
into the thousands of dollars and pos
sibly a score injured, is the result OF
q tornado which swept over the north
eastern part OF Wise county. Several
small towns were visited by the storm,
but none were entirely destroyed, al
though each suffered serious damage.
The greatest loss of life occurred
In the country districts. The destruc-
t1oD of one farmhouse alone caused
the death of eight persons. This sin
gle tragedy of the storm occurred
near S]idell. The farmhouse of Ira
Rice was crushed in by the furious
wind and the family of eight members
pinned beneath the wreckage. The
ruins became .ignited and, famed by
the strong wind. the flames snuffed
out the lives of the helpless victims.
The towns of Sanger and Greenwood
were hit and number of houses were
moved from their foundations.
Heavy sand storms were reported at
Dublin, Gainesville and other points
In that vicinity.

Woman kIdnapper Attempts to
Jump From Train
NOW IN JAIL At MERCER, PA
Both Abductors Of Willie Whit|a
Behind the Bars.

Pittsburg, March 27.-After making
q sensational attempt to escape from
q train going thirty miles an hour;
denying that she had hand in the
kidnapping of little Willie Whitla;
asserting that she is not Anna Nc
Dermott of Chicago; saying that nu-
merous other stories are absolutely in
correct and through it all maintaining
the air of mystery that has been
thrown about her Mrs. James Boyle,
wife of the man who kidnapped the
Whitla boy, is in Jail at Mercer, Pa.
The woman broke her long silence
and talked, but little definite informa-
ton was derived from her remarks.
Although three officers accompanied
her on the train from this city to
Mercer, Pa, she frightened them bad
ly in an attempt to either escape or
injure herself. The train had reached
the Bakerstown hill, one mile south
Of Valencia. William Campbell, a
railroad brakeman: opened the rear
door of the chair car in which the
woman and officers were riding. The
next instant Mrs. Boyle jumped from
her seat and ran toward the platform
of the car. Some one made a sharp
cry and Brakeman Campbell slammed
the door and faced the woman. Mrs.
Boyle quickly stepped into the lava.
tory and was attempting to open the
window when Sheriff Cumbert forced
his way into the little room and seized
her. In the meantime the detectives
guarded the rear platform. Mrs. Boyle
was taken back to her seat and the
three officers, visibly excited by the
actions of the woman, Immediately
arranged their chairs in a circle. Mrs.
Boyle was placed in the middle and
the officers decided to keep more
careful watch on her movements.
Both Boyle and his wife now are
locked up in the jail at Mercer, where
they will remain until brought to trial
for the kidnapping, which will prob
ably be during the early part of May.
