BUENOS AYEES, Nov. 2S.-A dis
patch received here from Rio Janeiro
saws the crews of several warships of

information.
The battleship Sac Paulo, with Presi-

aboard, arrived at Rio Janeiro October

whole Brazilian fleet was in the harbor.
Marshall Fonseca was inaugurated

Georgia Girl
Tries Suicide.

New York Dispatch. Miss May
Louise Thorp, a pretty nineteen
year-old girl from Statesboro, Ga,
today is in Bellevue hospital, suf-
fering from nervous prostration and
melanchola. The girl tried to COM
NIT suicide six times in the last
week.
Her trouble is said to have been
caused by her fiance's action in
ceasing to write her after he learned
she had given her engagement ring
as security for board bill.
Miss Thorp came to New York
several months ago in search q
work. She failed to get it and her
landlady accepted the girls dia-
mond ring as security for board
bill Of $50. She said it had been
given her BY her fiance, DR.. Allen
H. Bunce Of statesboro, Ga.
The ring was finally pawned for
s65 and the girl moved to the house
where her father was rooming.
Miss Thorp secured employment
for a few days each week in the
Office Of large department store,
but barely made enough money to
pay for her room and board.
It was said that somebody wrote
to DR.. Bunce and told him Miss
Thorp had parted with the engage
ment ring, and that he had ceased
writing TO her,
Miss Thorp brooded over her
troubles until she got nervous pros
tration, and after several attempts
to take her life was sent to Bellevue
hospital,
