rine. here this morning as she lay
asleep the day before her wedding,
because she was about to marry a
man of another faith.
Driving all the horror stricken
servants from the old Southern man

against his own temple and blew out
his brains.
Frank G. Ford, who was to have
been the bridegroom tomorrow. end
ed his own life when he heard the
news
To- day the palatial residence is
draped in mourning instead of being
prepared for the wedding celebration
The flowers that were TO have formed
the bridal decorations are being used
on the young girls bier instead. Her
wedding gown viii be her shroud. and
the maids and matrons of honor who
came TO rejoice with the bride have
stayed to mourn for the dead.
Wedding Guests Turn Mourners.
Every train reaching here brought
relatives and friends who had been
invited to attend the ceremony, and
their laughter was turned 10 tears
when they heard Of the tragic hap
penings of the day.
All of the victims in the triple trag-
edy are members of rich and promi-
nent Louisiana families. George A.
Brown was secretary of the Western
Louisiana Planters Association, and
the owner of several fine plantations
His daughter was one of the bellies of
the State. Her fiance, Frank G. Ford.

Of Martin, Miss. He recently inherited
$4,000 from his fathers estate.
The romance between the two
young people began recently when
Miss Brown visited Martin. Ford
made several trips into Louisiana and
the girls father never voiced mis- OBJ
jections until some time after the en-
gagement was announced. The prep
arations were allowed to proceed and
the bride-to-be had spent the night
before her death in examining hec
trousseau.
Drives Servants From House.
Early this morning the servants
were aroused by a single shot. Within
a few minutes they were summoned
to Mr.. Browns bed room to find him
pale and visibly excited. a revolver
clutched tightly in his hand. At the
point of the gun. he drove them from
the house. and it was not until they
gathered up courage an hour later to
return that they found the two bodies.
Immediate word was sent to Ford
at Martin and almost as quickly as
the wires could carry the words tn
news came back of the young mans
suicide.
Il can't live without her. Good
bye" was the message which the
grief stricken man left behind.

TODAY'S ADJUSTMENTS
To Be Seen at TnIs0's Various PIayhouses
Wonderland.

There is no style of entertainment
so popular nowadays as the Tab
loid musical comedy" brought to the
middle west by William b. Fried
lander, who has previously been en-
gagged in making such productions
in San Francisco. When he first
brought The Suffragettes' to this
part of the country. the managers
were slow in enthusing. They could
not believe that a satisfactory musi-
cal show could be presented in the
time devoted to twice-a-night vau-
deville Mr.. Friedlander soon con-
vinced them. He began his tour with
an engagement which was so sue
cessful that 1t became the topic OF
conversation wherever theatrical
managers or agents congregated.
The next engagement was a duplicate
of the first. Another record was
knocked to smithereens. The en-
thusiasm among the managers arose
to fever heat. Since that time The
Suffragettes" have been in great de-
mand nd there is a file of applica-
tions for return engagements which
would require full season to play.
The success of "The Suffragettes"
has been attributed to many things.
The most general claim is that ii is
the merry star. Nan lIalperln, who
carries the musical comedy into the
ranks of favorlte entertainment. >She
combines all those attractions which
go to make favorite players. Re-
finement Of style, personal charm
and winsomeness. pretty costumes,
and unusual ability are the qualities
emphasized by dramatic reviewers,
who repeated shower laurels on her
during her triumphant tour. Her
numbers are made musically delight
full and are carefully selected, being
adap pied to her voice and ability. She
is gracious, pretty and distinct in
simplicity, contributing the main
spring of a delightful show by her
gift of delivery of catchy numbers.

BY Mrs. Mroada B,iggs, Exponent Of
the Ar Of BAKING, as taught by
Mrs. Janet Mckenzie mn

the Art Of Baking, as taught by
Mrs. Janet Mckenzie mn
Helpful Cake Mnkind Hints
Always sift flour and K c Baking
Powder at least three times. The
more sitting, the lighter the cake.
Remember that! To cream but
ter and sugar quickly, warm the
sugar slightly. Beat yolks of eggs
with rotary beater. Whip whites
of eggs with fiat spoon whip.
Water makes lighter cakes; milk
makes richer cakes.
To mix a cake, first cream but
ter and sugar thoroughly, then add
yolks, if used. Then alternately
add moisture and flour that has
been sifted with baking powder
and stir until smooth and glossy,
adding egg whites after thoroughly
mixing.
Ala0ayS use K c Baking PoVdey.
Biscuit Helps
Alwayssift -four and K c Baking
Powder at least three times.
Have shortening cold and firm.
Mix dough as soft as it can be
handled. The softer dough goes
into the oven, the lighter the
biscuit when it comes out. 1t is
easier for K c Baking Powder to
do its work in soft than in stiff
dough. Mix biscuits very little.
Do not knead. Stir up with spoon
or knife and press in shape to roll
on Toured board.
With K c Baking Powder re-
suits are sure and certain. Ask
