Disgrace Causes Suicide.

st. Louis, June S.-Twelve hours af-
ter her husband, John Glaesser, had
been arrested on charge of embezzle-
ment, Mrs. Martha Glaesser was found
dead in bed by the side of the bodies of
her children, Annette, aged s, and
John, aged 8. The room was filled with
gas, and the police believe the mother
turned on the deadly vapor which ended
the three lives. Glaesser was released
today and the company which caused
his arrest said there would be no pros
ecution. Glaesser was not advised that
his family was dead when released.

BROWNS IN NIAGARA.
Man All But Dies in Effort to Save
Suicide Wife.

Niagara Fails, N. Y, June g.
Aaron Cohen, of Buffalo, N. Y, saw
his young wife leap into the swirling
river between Second and Third Sisters
islands today, only $50 feet above the
brink of the cataract.
Without a moments hesitation, he
followed her, caught her hand, and
struggled desperately to save her.
Mrs. Cohen probably died in her hus-
bands arms.
Before it was possible TO bring eff
cient help an hour had passed. All this
time Cohen was making frantic at
tempts to reach the shore. But the
struggle against the current--at this
point it is about 20 miles an hour-was
beyond his power.
Fortune aided him, however. With
his wife tightly clasped to him, he
bumked into tree stump, and ON this
he got grip with his one free hard.
There he stayed and shouted for help.
Finally word was carried to the res
ervation police, and Policeman James
Martin and three other men with ropes
hurried to the scene. Three times they
threw rope before it fell within
Cohen's grasp. When he did catch it,
he was too weak to tie it about his own
or his wife's waist.
The two were 20 feet away from
shore, and ii was extremely difficult,
owing to the precarious nature of the
footing, to make good cast. Pinned
against the tree by the terrific rush of
water, all the strength had gone out Of
Cohen, and he had been unable to keep
his wife's face above water.
Once Cohen had hold of the rope, the
men ashore began to pull. Martin,
who was in front, slipped and fell into
the stream, but quickly regained his
footing. When within Is feet of the
shore, Cohen lost his grip on his wife's
body. and it was carried down stream
and was lost to view.

Sailors Escane hx Force

San Francisco, June -Four sailors
of the British ship Mussel Crag. ly-
ing in the bay, made their escape from
that vessel early today by binding and
gagging the Waterman and rowing to
shore in a small boat. One of the men
has been denied admission to this
country, because he is a sufferer from
trachoma, contagious disease of the
eyes, and Captain Fraser is liable to a
heavy fine for allowing him to land.
The boat was found upside down and
there is possibility that the men met
with an accident after leaving the ship.

granddaughter, Miss Minnie ODER, 2S

The men found only $3.50 in the
house, and, believing there was more,
bound the three women and tortured
them. They used picture wire in fas-
tening the women to chairs. Then they
held lighted candles to their bare feet.

HIGH WATER COMING.
Snake River Near Record Point
kootenai Rising.

Lewiston, Idaho, June 4.-Lewiston
is experiencing the highest water since
10 years ago today, when practically
one-half of the business district and
much of the residence section was
submerged. The Snake river at that
time registered about 10 feet, and the
reading this evening is 17.8 feet, with
every indication of a further rise to-
morrow. The city is in no danger of
flood damage at this time, because of
the high railroad dykes which afford
ample protection on both river fronts.
The Clearwater river has been rising
rapidly for the past several days and
reports tonight from Kamiab, so miles
above Lewiston, stated all Of the false
work and one of the cement piers for
the new wagon bridge being con-
structed there have been carried away.
Old-timers who have experienced
several of the most severe floods be-
lieve the highest water has been
reached unless warm rains prevail
within the next two days. The snow
has disappeared from tie Blue noun
tains from the Lewiston view, and in
most years this has been regarded as
indicative of an early subsiding of the
waters.
Up to this time no severe damage
h 10 been re ported from any section.

GENERAL STATE
NEWS OF IDAHO

Lewiston-The prairie districts are
county proper, but recent showers
have saved the grain. Rain has been
falling on all parts of Camas and Nez
Perez prairies, but the lower Tammany
country has been without moisture.
If no hail strikes the prairie country
all crop records will be broken.
Kendrick-The berry growers are
preparing for the berry harvest, which
will start in two or three weeks. They
expect the largest crop ever raised in
this part of the country. The first
shipment OF 25, 900 boxes was received
this week by Lauterbach Bros, who
handled 200e crates last year.
ngevilIe--Although the snow in
the mountains has not been so deep for
Is years there is so little water in some
of the placer districts that the mines
have been shut down. The lack of
water comes, however, from cold
weather, as the snow is melting so
slowly that there is not sufficient
water to operate. AS soon as the
warm weather melts the snow there
will be an abundance of water and the
placer mines will be operated all sum-
mer.
The mountain roads and trails are
now almost impossible with snow,
even the Elk City road being covered
deep with snow and ice. 1t is not be-
lieved the ice will melt from this road
for a month.
