Paris.-The dramatic suicide of

In the presence of two inspectors was
the sensational climax to crime un-
exampled in horror. The murder was
at first regarded as crime of po-
lttfcal vengeance, but Investigation
proved that it was committed for lust
of gold.
With much difficulty the murderer,
a Russian engineer named Andrew
Guilevitch, was traced to Paris, where
he was arrested at the counter of the
Bank of st. Petersburg, in the Rue
LATTE. while In the act of presenting

Of suicide, which was accomplished
by surreptitiously placing crystal Of
virulent poison in his mouth, recalls
the tragic death of the notorious
f1nancier, Whitaker Wright, who, after
being sentenced for fraud, poisoned
himself at the law courts.
The career Of this man was ascer-
tanned to have been really extraordi-
nary. Guilevitch belonged to a good
Bessarabian family and when he fin
ished his studies at St. Petersburg
two years ago with an engineers d.
ploma he was beset with the idea of
making fortune as fast as he could.
In May last year he sold his estate
in Bessarabia and insured his life for
$4,000, his plan being to pass himself
of as dead.
A few days afterward he advertised
for u secretary and from the candi-
dates he selected a young man who
had just finished his course at Mos
COW. They went together to Kieff,
where. after the lapse of a few
months, Guilevitch tried to kill his
secretary. first by offering him wine
into which poison had been intro
duced, and then coffee similarly
mixed. The secretary, however, hav-
ing his suspicious, refused the glass
and the cup and his would-be murder
er, waxing furious at his failures, dis
missed him. A fresh batch Of adver-
tisements for a secretary followed
and at the end of last September a
young man named Podlutsky was en-
gagged.
He went with his employer to St..
Petersburg and was installed in a
small furnished apartment in the Le-

AS to who these IL lonely women,

be sent out.
Sometimes one of the parents will
carry a dish of this stuff to partic-
ularly close friend The women or the
men as the case may be embrace
each other and the neighbor brings
into play all his knowledge of the
congratulatory expressions BETTING
the occasion, some of which run
like this:
20 my neighbor and friend, may the
child live long to bring joy to your
heart. May it please Allah that you
marry him during your lifetime. I
cannot describe to you how elated and
enraptured l am to know that your
child has cut tooth. o son OF my
uncle, I am going to make an offering
to a church for the long life of your
child"
Then without much loss of time the
neighbor invites his visitor to drink
of arac to the health Of the baby
and very seldom does he let him de-
part without having had four or five.
The dishes in which the sanainieh
is carried to neighbors and friends
are not returned Immediately. Some
times it is a week or even two before
they are back in their customary
places in the Family cupboard. When
they are returned they are not empty.
1t is the duty of the recipient of a
dish of sanainieh to return the dish
full Of some delicacy. Hence the homo
of the baby's parents will resemble
an elaborate exposition of pastries
and sweets when all the dishes are in.

body was discovered in a horrible
state of mutilation, the features being
cut to pieces and the head scalped.
The remains were dressed in the
clothes Of the murderer, who left his
papers in his pockets, and the police
were at first deceived as to the iden-
tity. The family of Podlutsky, how
ever, were not satisfied and fancied
that the body was not his and Sec
ond inquiry was Instituted.
Meanwhile Guilevitch had hurried
away from the Russian capital and
was posing as the dead man.
During this time Guilevitch's broth

to do so and on the following morn

The Wonderberry or sunberry, the
marvellous garden fruit originated by
Luther Burbank, and Introduced bv
John Lewis Childs, the well-known
Scotsman of Floral Park, N. Y, has
proved great success all over the
country. Thousands of people say it
Is the best thing they ever grew.
MI. John Burroughs, the well-known
author, Naturalist and bosom-friend of
Theodore Roosevelt, says it is the
most delicious pie berry he ever tasted,
and marvellous cropper.
A Director Of the New York Agricul-
tural Experiment Station says it fruits
abundantly even in pure sand. In the
short season of Northwestern Canada

people grew 1t there last season with
perfect satisfaction.
K. 8. Enochs, Hammond, La. says
1t yields $3.50 worth Of fruit per
acre with him. Mrs. J. H. Powers,
47S2 Kenwood avenue, Chicago, raised
enough berries on a space 4x10 rect
to supply herself and friends.
J. P. Swallow, Kenton, Ohio, says its
equal for all purposes does not exist.
Rev. H. B. Sheldon, Pacific Grove,
CAL, says he likes the berries served

w. T. Davis, Enon, Va, says it is
true to description in every way, and
fruits in three months from seed.
Judge Morrow, of U. s. Circuit,

Mr.. Childs exhibited one plant five
