Woman Dies Suddenly.

Just q few moments before her
death from heart disease, Mrs. Mary
b. Locke, who died Monday evening,
in the home of her daughter, Mrs.
William Hart, No. SO Antoinette-st.,
was playing the piano and chatting
with the family. Her death came as
a great shock. Mrs. Locke Is surviv-
ed by three daughters and two sons:
Mrs. Hart, Mrs. s. r. Chambers, of
Louisville, KY; Mrs. Benjamin Blake
well, Washington. ID. c., and Thomas
and Richard Locke, Of Louisville, Ky.
Funeral services will be held In the
Hart home, Wednesday afternoon.
Each time a woman wears 1t,
The harem skirt Is much maligned
But in good sooth 1t matters much
What kind OF damsel dares 1t.
A dame with feet that look like pies
Evokes the witticism;
But she with tootsies trim and neat
Disarms all criticism.
