GOES SMILING OVER NIAGARA
Miss Beatrice Snyder Writes Fare

Spectacular Way.

NIAGARA FALLS, N. "a
young woman thought to be Miss
Beatrice R. Snyder of Buffalo COM
mitted suicide Monday by wading in
to the river just above Prospect
Point and going over the American
tails. AS her body swept over the
brink of the cataract she turned her
face toward would-be rescuers and
smiled a farewell to them.
Without moments hesitation
Miss Snyder waded into the stream.
She turned once and smiled toward
the men who were calling to her to
stop, and continued to move rapidly
into deep water In an instant she
was Whisked from her feet and car
ried rapidly toward the brink of the
falls.
On the bank was found handbag
and in it this note:
Mama and Papa: Oh, you both
forgive me for bringing this awful
disgrace upon you in these years of
your life. Also may our Heavenly
Father forgive all my sins. But l
have been very good, thank God.
You will find slip for the money I'M

heart full of love for all your kind
ness and tender love, goodbye. Low

There was a card in the purse
bearing the name of Beatrice R. Sny-
der. There is little hope that the
body ever will be recovered.
Miss Snyder was chief clerk in a
Buffalo, N. Y, tea store. She had
been detected since the death of her
fiance, George F. Myers. They were
to have been married in a few

SHABBY OLD MAN IN A So ROOM.
His Big Fat Wallet Almost Paralyzed
the Policemen.

A shabby old man was arrested
IN Pittsburg the other day because
he was found in company deemed to
be questionable and because he was
acting in a suspicious manner. It
was ascertained that he was living
IN squalid corner of the city in a
room for which he paid 81 a week
AT the station house he was searched
the police always search, through
curiosity or for other reasons-and
$l8O,315 in cash was turned out of
MS various pockets. The eyes of the
policemen nearly popped out of their
sockets. The shabby old man was
able to establish the fact that he
was one of the biggest coal opera
tors in western Pennsylvania, and
was worth several millions of dol
lars. He said it was none of the bus
mess of the police if he was seventy
one years old, if he lived in a So
room and if he carried a fortune
around in his pocket; and the po-
lice had to admit that it wasn't.
But how they did hate to see that
bunch get away may be imagined.

BANK CASE is A BIG JOB
Stockholders to BE Party to $500, 900
Suit If Judge Whipple Decides
Against Them.

MACON, Ga.-The suit of the re-
.ceivers against the directors of the
Exchange Bank promises to develop
the greatest amount of litigation and
involve more people than any other
civil case heard in the superior court
of Bibb county.
Col. Robert A. Nisbet, clerk of the
superior court, has perfected service
upon each of the stockholders of the
Exchange Bank, 127 in number.
Many of these are scattered through
out the state, but the papers will be
served upon them at the place Of
their residence by deputies from the
sheriff's office. This feature will add
large item to the costs in the liti-
cation.
Upon motion of Attorney M. P.
Galloway, representing one of the di-
rectors, Judge U. V. Whipple has is
sued an order requiring each of the
stockholders to show cause why they
should not be made parties to the
100000 suit against the directors.
The latter claim that in as much
as the stockholders received the al
legged illegally declared dividends,
they should be made to refund this
money, provided it is held that the
directors erred in declaring such di-
vidends. This motion will be ar
gued before Judge Whipple in Ma
con on April 18th.

BEGGAR WAS WALKING BANK
Her Stockings and BustIe Were
Lined With Greenbacks When
Searched By Police.

CHARLOTTE, N. C.-With her
stockings lined with five and ten
dollar bills and her hustle bullying
with greenbacks and silver coin a
white woman giving her name as
Bessie Wilson, of Rock Hill, S. c.,
was taken from the A. T. and o. pas
senger train which gets here at
1880, and taken to the police sta
ton. PatrOlmen Henderson and NAL
colin met the train and took the wo-
man in charge.
AT the police station a careful
search brought to light $442.57. The
money was in one, five and ten-dol-
lar bills, and also in coin, the latter
ranging in denomination from pen
MES to fifty-cent pieces.
The arrest was made on informa-
ton furnished the chief of police by
Capt. Thomas w. Rowland, conduc-
tor on the train from which the pas
senger was taken.
The woman was a recognized beg
gar, and has made her appearance in
several towns, having visited this
city once before, where she was ar
rested and forced to leave the town.
No charges have been preferred
against her this time, but the chief
of police will place her on the train
and start her on her way to her al
legged South Carolina home.

SPlNSTER'S STRANGE WILL
The Beneficiaries Are Going to Have
Trouble Meeting It's Re-
OuirementS,

An extraordinary will has been left
by an elderly unmarried lady who re-
Gently died in Vienna. Her property,
amounting to about $250,000, is to
be divided between her three neph-
ews, now aged "a, 81 and 20, and
her three nieces, aged 10, 81 and
%, in equal parts on the following
conditions:
The six nephews and nieces must
all live in the house formerly in
habited by their aunt with the execu-
tor, a lawyer. None of the nephews
is to marry before reaching his for
tieth year, nor the nieces before
their thirtieth; the share of the one
so marrying will be divided. Fur
Their, the six legatees are admonished
never to quarrel. If one should do
so persistently the executor is en-
powered to turn him or her out of
the house and divide the share. The
executor is himself forbidden to
marry or to reside elsewhere than
in the house with the legatees.
The old maid is said to have made
this peculiar will because her neph-
ews and nieces continually worried
her by asking her to give them mon
! ey to enable them to marry-re-
quests she always refused.

POVERTY FOLLOWS HIGH PRICES
Number of Applications For Aid Has
Greatly Increased.

A New York dispatch says effects
OF the increased cost of living upon
the working classes are shown in the
largely expanded number of applica-
lions to the city for aid.
The rising tide of inability to make
income keep pace with living ex-
penses is indicated in the fact that
during the last II months more than
$4,000 persons sought relief from the
charities department, an increase of
more than SO per cent. in five years.
There were 92,995 applications in
1904.
In seven years the number of per-
sons seeking shelter in the city lodg-
Ing house has augmented until last
year 102,400 persons applied, an in
crease of more than 100 per cent.

the daily average has risen in three
years to 281.
Suicides have increased nearly so
per cent. from 1904 to 1909.

TAX COLLECTION ENJOINED.
Baker County Citizens Begin Law
suit With County Commissioners.

Baker County Citizens Begin Law
suit With County Commissioners.
Prominent citizens and taxpayers
of Baker county have filed petition
in the superior court asking that the
board of commissioners of that cOun-
ty be enjoined from collecting a tax
of $40 per $1,000 which has been
levied
The Albany Herald says that in
the absence from the Albany circuit
of Judge Frank Park, who was
in Florida, the petition was present
ed to Judge w. G. Worrill of the Pa
taula circuit at Cuthbert.
Judge Worrill granted a Temporal
ry injunction, and set the hearing
for permanent injunction for Mon
day, February 14th, before Judge
Park, at cambridge.
The petition for injunction is
brought by Messrs. M. A. McRainey,
C. E. Norris and several other we'll
known Baker county citizens.
The county commissioners, of
which board Judge John O. Perry
is chairman, are represented by Ben
ton Odon OF Newton and Pope & Ben
nett of Albany.
Although it is not mentioned in the
petition it is understood that the high
tax rate in Baker county was made
necessary, at least in part, by the
court house troubles there. 1t will
be remembered that the county is
sued bonds to build a court house.
These bonds were turned over to the
contractor, who afterward went into
bankruptcy, without having finished
the building. The county did not
get the bonds back nor the money
therefor, and the bankrupt contract
or did not finish the building. The
taxes of the county were then in
creased so the building could be COM
pleted. The county lost in the trans
action something like $4,000.
The petition asking for the iniunc-
ton alleges that the tax as levied is
exhorbitant, unreasonable and lille
gal.

BOSTON'S BIG BEAN BUSINESS
Thirty-Two Million Quarts Baked and

Boston baked beans are known

baked beans are devoured annually.
to say nothing of the pork that goes
with them and the brown bread that
is also served. There are factories
or bakeries which handle nothing but
baked beans from one years end to
the other. One of the largest of
these, which supplies restaurants
wholly, bakes $4,000 quarts of beans
a week. Other bakeries also furnish
brown bread, while nearly every
bakeshop that makes bread, pastry
and pies also bakes beans several
times a week. There are bakeries
with ovens that will hold 1000
quarts each.
The preparation and baking Of
beans are interesting operations. In
establishments where beans only are
baked it is done on a huge scale
There are great kettles that hold two
or three bushels of beans, and into
these the beans are put to soak and
parboil. Then the pots of earthen-
ware, varying in size from one quart
to two gallons, are ranged around on
tables and filled from the big ket-
ties. Every quart of beans is care

cleaned of all dirt and dead beans
before being put into the kettles.
The ovens are huge brick affairs.

ORDERLY CANNIBAL TRIBE

There are a few native villages
around Kerema, Papua, all friendly

the mysterious and much dreaded
Kukukuku tribe.
Ihese Kukukukus, sound more like
something out of a medieval goblin

and taro gardens check the upper
peaks like the tiny squares on a

At times they descend in small
active parties upon the tribes of the

the magistrate went out with a hand

murderers by night on their way
back to the hills and capture them
if possible.
A Volley fired in the dark was the
only punishment the cannibals re-

the ambush and got away in their
usual mysterious fashion before the
police could follow up their fire.
Traces of blood on the path showed
that it had been effective, but the

Until last year no white man and

who closely considers every part of
the human body in connection with
character, the color of the hair is a
dlstlnct betrayer of ones disposition,
and mental and moral capacity.
Thus straight black hair that
grows coarse and thick is supposed to
belong to the woman who is indus
trious, orderly, but will never set the
world on fire with her mental ca
pacity. Straight hair, moreover. in
dlcates greater power to rule others
than usually belongs to the envied
curly head.
Auburn hair, though not generally
known, is said to denote a kindly.
sympathetic nature; but give one or
two tones deeper and the red-headed
sister will be hot-tempered. domi-

Fine, glossy brown hair with chest
nut hues is thought to accompany an
acute mind, and usually the owner
has strong intellectual tastes.
Curly black hair is supposed to in
d1cate an intense, passionate nature,
with touch of coarseness.
Drab or dun-colored hair usually
means a commonplace, mondescript,

INTERVIEWS $775,GOO FEE.
Lawyers Compensation For Conclud-
ing Merger Between Companies.

ing Merger Between companies.
The fact that Samuel Untermyer,
the lawyer, had received a fee of
$775, 200 for his work in bringing
about the merger between the Utah
Copper company and the Boston Con-
solidated Mining Company, finally
completed the other night after dis
missal of the injunction proceedings
in the United States circuit court
lat Trenton, N. j., was the one topic
of interest recently among lawyers
in New York city. 1t was generally
admitted that it is the largest fee
ever received by lawyer in a single
case in the United States, probably in
the world. Mr. Untermyer himself
however would not talk about it.
rs it true" he was asked, that
your fee of $775,O0O is the largest
ever received by a lawyer?"
For obvious reasons" said Mr..
Untermyer, with a satisfied smile.
Il can not discuss such personal
subject. Anyway, it is not a matter
of public interest,"
Inquiry brought out from other
sources some interesting details re-
garding the work that Mr.. Untermyer
did for $775,0OO.
In the first place it represented
some three or four years attention
to the interests of the Boston Con-
.solidated company, which is con-
trolled by an English syndicate, and
continued negotiations to bring about
the consolidation which has at length
gone through. AS to the legal pro-
ceedings which Immediately preceded
it there has seldom been a case be-
fore the courts which involved so
much work in the preparation of pa
pers. Three companies-one Eng
lish and two American-were in
volved in the suit, and Mr.. Inter
myer represented all three.
