After firing four bullets with fatal
effect into the body Of his 23-year-old
wife, who had run away from hun,
Shelby Young, 81 years old, Chicago
Elevated Railway conductor, committed
suicide yesterday afternoon in Geneva,
Ohio.
Mrs. Young left her home in Chicago

cradle through jealousy, and had de-
stroyed her best clothes to prevent her
leaving the house.
Young reached Geneva yesterday
morning. He followed his wife to the
farm of Charles Stevens, where she had
gone to pay visit. The young woman
was on the porch talking TO Mrs. Stevens

and Young drew revolver and fired
four shots through her body, killing
her. Turning the weapon on himself,
he sent the two remaining bullets into

THE SMITHFIELD HAM.

The producers OF what is perhaps the
most famous delicacy that comes out
OF Virginia, the Smithfeld ham, are
wrought up by the efforts of a Rich
mond man to appropriate the name Of
their world d-famed product as his ex-
elusive property. An effort has been
made to register the name "Smithfield
Ham" as a trade mark.
Congressman Maynard was appealed
to in Norfolk by telephone and tele-
graph, yes .day, by the people at
Smithfeld, who would be robbed of the
right 10 use the name under which
their product has been sold for 800
years, should the patent office grant
the application of the Richmond man.
Mr.. Maynard Immediately telegraphed
a long protest to the commissioner OF
patents, at Washington, citing the fact
that the secret OF curing Smlthtield
hams had been learned by the early
settlers from the Indians.
He has represented in strong terms
the irreparable damage that would be
done the producers OF Smithheld hams
by the granting Of patent rights on the
name of the product, and asked that
the application be refused.

LITTLE VICTIM OF AVIATION.

An airship built by 13-year-old Harry
Spero, of New York, was smashed at its
launching yesterday and his little sister
Alice is dying in a hospital with frac-
tured skull. Harry is afugitive and the
police are searching for him.
For weeks Harry had been tinkcrlng
and pottering on his "aeroplane.' . He
made his wings s feet long OF cheese
cloth, resembling those onthe Wright
machine. There was soap box
seat in the middle Of the tlimsy
frame.
In the centre were two hand levers
taken from a self-propelling toy wagon.
These would cause the checsc-cloth
planes to work up and down and shift
slightly for balancing There was no
motor or anything suggestive OF one.
The machine was expected TO glide,
rather than fly.
Yesterday Harry's mother went
shopping, and Harry called two chums
into his home in an East Side Now
York fiat to try the aeroplane whlch they
carried to the roof Of the four-story
tenement.
We'll let my little sister take the first
ride, "he said. 'She don weigh scarce
ly nothing"
The child did not object. She thought
it was a new game. The three boys
gently moved the airship forward until
it tottered ON the edge. Then they
gave it a shove and stood back to see it
soar.
A woman heard faint scream. She
saw the cheese cloth contrivance drop
ping straight down, turn turtle and
crash into . ruin OF rags and splinters
against the stones. Then she saw the
child in the wreckagc.
Harry stayed long enough to wllimp-
er the truth about it to a neighbor, then
fed before an ambulance and q police
man arrived

PREDEIICTIoN FOR ACTRESSES.

According to IN announcement from
Davenport, Iowa, by Mrs. A. Bruner,
mother OF Mrs. Beatrice Bruner God
frey, an actres, the young woman is
engaged to marry Jay Gould, son OF
George J. Gould. This is denied, how
ever, at the Offices Of the latter's father
in New York.
Mrs. Godfrey figured in romantic
marriage to Arthur w. Godfrey, a
Boston millionaire, with whom she
eloped 4 few years ago, but later Sc
cured a divorce from him. She Is at
present member of Anna Held's
Miss Innocence" company, which is
playing in London.
Theatrical marriages seem to run
in the Gould family, and if young
Jay Gould is really engaged to Mrs.
Godfrey he will be merely following
the example of his father, who married
Edith Kingdom, an actress, the mar
riage having proved a very happy one.
The preference of the Gould boys for
women of the stage was also evidenced
in the wedding of Frank ]. Gould,
whom his first wife had divorced, to
Miss Edith Kelly, and in that OF
Howard Gould to Miss Katharine
Clemmons. whose troubles have had
an extensive airing in the country.

When informed yesterday that the
summary court-martial Of Thomas
Carol, the negro soldier who drew a
pistol on the Virginian militiaman at
Gettysburg instruction camp, had been
resumed and concluded by General
Wotherspoon, at the camp, Governor
William Hodges Mann expressed his
feelings rather strongly. He said:
That is queer way OF doing bust
ness. I thought they would at least
notify me Of the decision of the secre-
tary of war. Evidently they do not
want the Virginia soldiers in the future
joint maneuvers, and Twill sec Senator
Martin and learn what can be done in
the matter. / am very muchlsurprised,

Eut few IT, any details of tangible
nature developed today as far as the
outside public was aware, although
i was evident that the executor OF
5wope estate and the prosecutors Of
fee are busily engaged in an effort
to get at the bottom of the matter.
Sensations are promised but no
surmise Of their nature was to be
had. One story given circulation was
that an hour before Col. Swope died
he had been given a tablet; that an
hour later the patient went into con
vulsions, soon lapsed into a state OF
coma and died. Colonel Swope had
eaten heavy meal and the drug was
said to be a digestive capsule. No in
