morning in what is supposed to be
deliberate attempt at suicide She has
been brooding over the death of
August Dressed for about two weeks
and in fit of despondence took her
life. The body was not discovered un-
til about 1850 yesterday afternoon and
it is quite evident that the act was
premeditated. She named ad-
ministrative of the estate known as
the Crown Point florist and 1t is sup
posed that she brooded over the re-
sponsibility until her mind became de-
ranged. She was the mother of two
daughters. but their whereabouts can
not be determined She was found
with bullet wound through her chest

defeat her purpose could be made

With a Hammond man holding the
office Of general commander of Indi-
ana 1t is expected that the Hammond
representation at the
tri-ennial conclave which is to be held
In Denver in August of next year will
be q large one.
Already the Hammond Commandery
has sent out cards In which an effort
is being made to learn how many peo-
pie will attend from here. A tri-en-
NAL committee consisting of George
o. Mallett. H. E. Sharrer and F. n.
Hickok has been appointed.
The necessity for taking such ac-
tion arises from the fact that hotel
are already being made
and 1t is only by making arrange
ments far in advance that the best
arrangements can be made.

San Francisco. July 3o.-San Fran
cisco is fairly outdofng herself in the
way of keeping military and civic
honors upon Japan's two exposition
commissioners, Haruki Yamawaki and
Yoshikatsu Katayama, who arrived In
this city recently to select. formally
for their imperial government. the site
which the Mikado's people will adorn
for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposi-
ton. Mayor Rolph and other dis
tinguished San Franciscans met the
japanese diplomates on their arrival,
and the reception accorded the visitors
at that time made the occasion
memorable.
The warmth of the reception given
the visitors they first stepped upon
American shores has not abated. and
will doubtless reach climax on July
81, when the site-selecting ceremonies
will be held.
In the meantime the Japanese com
missioners are improving their time
studying America, and Yamawaki has
given out the following statement
concerning his mission:

the first having been on the occasion
Eof the Worlds Fair at st. Eouis In

The commercial relations between
America and Japan are becoming in
creasingiy. important every year. Now,
we must catch every possible occasion
to encourage these relations for the
benefit of both peoples This Is the
best assurance which we have OF that
mutual understanding which renders
the peace OF the world more effective.
For so years Japan has owed a
great deal to the kindness of ydnr
government and people. So the Japa-
nese government and Its people are
always anxious to respond. We never
hesitate to express gratitude by
heartily participating in such scheme
as this exposition. 1t is a great honor
to be head and not to be second in
assisting your undertaking."
Commi missioner Yamawaki ha 6
brought Joy to the hearts of the ex-
position officials here by announcing
that Japan's great national exposition
which had been scheduled originally
for 1917. had been postponed indef1-
nitely. Thus it will not interfere with
the San Francisco fair.

for Washington. D. c., where he will

MY official mission. of course. is to

points which may come up pertaining

AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. July IA. F.
Knots is one of the early arrivals for
the Bull Moose convention. He Is
wearing a Roosevelt button as big as
a saucer. 1t was practically decided
by the third party state committee to-
day that the state platform shall de-
clare for county option. Only few
delegates arrived thus far. There is
no doubt about Beveridge's nomina I
tion for governor.
A number of the Bull Moose ad
herents in Lake county went to the
local shrine of the party at Indianap-
oils today for the purpose of renewing
their inspiration.
From Gary there were in the neigh
borhood of a dozen delegates. There
were dozen from East Chicago, Indi-
ana Harbor. Whiting and Hammond
a few from down county.
They went down to the state capital
undecided whether or not to put a
county ticket in the field. There was
a good deal of opposition to the plan
developed after the Crown Point con-
ventfon and 1t is not believed that the
plans of the radicals will prevail.
