OF the new Ritz-Carlton Hotel! IL you
do not believe me. go there and see II
for yourself. Look with your "
eyes upon a public dining room where
every other table contains a party or
women calmly smoking over their tea
and mullins.
Life used to be such a simple thing
one saw a man drinking from his lin
ger bowl and knew Immediately that
he was not u gentleman. Or n saw
a woman smoking and knew at once
she was a person who must be crossed
from ones calling list. Now existence
has become complex. II would SEEM
these days, that a woman smoking In a
public place may or may not be a LADY.
There is a question; one may not be
sure. And II one OF the c~harintngly
simple rules which made our lives SO
easy is thus casually demolished now
be certain OF the others?
Is it possible that. after all, a gentle
man may drink from his finger bowl:
or that II a lady may smoke she may
also cross her feet, or leave her Tea
spoon in her cup? 1repeat 1t has all
become too confusing.
For a while things were not so bad
at the R!tz-Carlton. When the man
gemen first announced that women
might smoke In the public dining rooms
OF The hotel, very few took advantage
OF the decision. Here and there a
travelled person produced her chate-
laine case, Nhted her cigarette and
thought no more about 1t. But the
large majority OF New York women
cast chaste g~lances over their COCK
tail glasses at their less conventional
sisters.

Philadelphia, Oct. 20.-Jupiter Pill

The game goes over until tomor-

A WYOMING TOWN
BADLY TERRORIZED
FIVE MEN "sHooT UP" PLACE
AND ESCAPE UNFRAMED AZ
TER FRIGHTENING CITIZENS

Salt Lake City, Oct. 2O.-A special
from Cokeville, Wyo., says that five
men rode into that town last evening
and for nearly an hour held the place
at their mercy. 1t Is believed tina,
two members of the party were the
Whitney brothers, who have been
terrorizing parts of southern Idaho
and Western Wyoming and for whom
a search is on.
The men made their appearance
first at the Wyoming saloon and dur
ing their visit took shot at the bar
tender. Going out on to the street,
they ordered the residents to their
homes and, while enforcing their or
ders with their firearms, Peter H.
Anderson received a bullet in the leg.
Later. the visitors rode to the office
of County Attorney Reynolds and
took several shots at him, but none
was effective. Just before leaving the
town they rode to the Fuller saloon
and fired volley through the front
window. So far as know no one was
hurt there. Before the townspeople
could organize for resistance. the
visitors rode away and a posse is
searching for them.

GIRLS Death is A MYSTERY
DIED FROM EFFECTS OF PoTAs.
SUM CYANIDE SENT HER
AS MEDICINE.

Boston, Oct. 20.--Rev. C. v. T..
Richeson, pastor of Baptist
church in Cambridge, was arrested
early today as result of the police
investigation of the death by poison
ing of Miss Avis Lei. ell, student
at the New England Conser :atory of
Music. The arrest was made at the
home of Moses G. Edmands, father of
Richeson's fancee, in Brookline.
A day or two before Miss LennelPs
death cards were issued for the we'd
ding of Mr.. Richeson and Miss Violet
Edmands, which was set for Tuesday.
The officers were unable to gain ad-
mittance to the Edmands home last
night and guarded the house until
this morning, when the arrest was
made. Mr.. Richeson took his arrest
coolly.
A warrant charging first degree
murder was sworn out this morning
against Richeson.
Deputy Superintendent Watts said
he ffecefved word last evening that
William Hahn, druggist of New
ton Center, had sold cyanide of po-
tassium to Richeson on the night of
October 10.
According to Watts, Richeson told
Hahn he had a troublesome dog
which he desired to get rid of, and
thus secured the poison.
Victim Was III.
Avis Lennell, 10 years old, whose
home was at Hyannis, Mass, was
found dead in the bath room of the
Young Women's Christian Associa-
ton home in this city last Saturday.
At first it was believed that she had
committed suicide, but later develop
ments showed that she had unknow-
ingly taken cyanide of potassium,
given or sent to her by some other
person, which she used in the belief
that it would remedy physical condi-
tions which were causing misery.
Miss Lenneli had previously been
friend of Mr.. Richeson and it was
understood at Hyannis that an en-
gagement existed. Later, however, the
clergyman became engaged to Miss
Edmands, whose father is a trustee
Of the Newton Theological Institu-
ton where Mr.. Richeson studied for
the ministry.
Richeson is S5 years old and is q
native of Roseholl, Va. At brief
formal hearing in the municipal court
Richeson was held without bail for
further examination October 81, the
date set for his wedding, and was
sent to jail pending further proceed
ings.
