COLORED DINNERS RULE
WITH BERLIN SMART SET.

Berlin, July Pale blue Holsters,
rose colored consomme, and pink
bread are the latest craze Of the ultra
smart set here. Professor Joseph
Kornfeldt. who is responsible for the
blue lobster, discovered that the rea-
son that the crustacean ordinarily
turns red when boiled, is the presence
of natural dye alizarin in its shell.
This led him to the obvious conclu-
sion that few drops of harmless
alkali added to the water would
change the color to lovely blue. At
a recent "colored dinner" given by
a Berlin millionaire even the finger
bowl water was tinted.

LIFE OF CRIME Is
ADMITTED BY MADISON

San Diego, July 9.-Haying made
partial confession of life of crime
in several cities and having hinted
that he murdered Mrs. Lydia Burns.
a widow, TO get money she had col
lected as fire insurance after her
home was burned here, DR.. Frank M.
Madison committed suicide in his
cell at the city jail early today. He
strangled himself with his necktie
and choked to death in bed. He was
found sitting bolt-upright, .clutching
a magazine. His thumb was pressed
on a paragraph of fire story. The
article told how a number of young
women had perished in leaping from
an office building to escape
DR.. Madison was held for arson as
the result of the fire in the Owl
China store, of which he was pro-
prietor, in the Leland hotel building
here on the night of July 4. Only
mere accident prevented the flames
from wiping out sixty lives. The fire
was started with fuses connected
with oil and distillate. Madison was
arrested in Los Angeles. At first he
denied any connection with the fire,
but later he called Chief of Police
Wilson to his cell and made what has
been regarded as a practical confes-
sion of guilt.
81 have lived an awful life," said
Madison, according to Wilson. 81
have done things of which / have
been accused and which | have de-
MED. | have done many other
things of which | have never been
accused"
Taking Wilson by the hand, Madi-
son said:
Have they exhumed Mrs. Burns
body"
Receiving a negative answer, Mad
ison sighed, and said:
"Well they have got it on me for
that. They will convict me, and l
am not long for this life, anyway"
To Chief Wilson, Madison admit
ted that the denials of connection
with the Leland hotel fire were false.
He declined, however, to go into par
ticulars, and made arrangements to
have an attorney and stenographer
visit his cell today. Chief Wilson
said today that Madison's evident
purpose was to make a complete con-
fession today.
Mrs. Burns was the widow of Dr..
Burns, who ran drug store here
for many years She died in May as
a result of what seemed to be a ma
tural internal trouble, DR.. Madison
signing the death certificate. She
had Just collected $500 insurance
on her home, which had burned a
few weeks before. Madison cashed
the insurance check, her indorse-
ment being on it. He said the
money belonged to him, as he had
advanced money to Mrs. Burns for
lumber to build the house.
