 Later, after each had been married they found that they had made a big mistake and all of the old time love came back. It is thought by their friends that it was on account of the failure that each had made of married life that the two decided to die to- gether.
 The chauffeur who was arrested at the time of the double suicide from the Brooklyn bridge has been released as there was absolutely no evidence connecting him with the pair in any way.

MUCH INTEREST
IN CONSERVATION
Illinois Fire Prevention Associa-
ton Meeting Held Here
Wednesday.

In keeping with the spirit of the con-
servation of the natural resources, a
campaign is being waged in the United
States agains: the great destruction of
property by fire The annual loss "a
ito in the United States is about S3.Ic
per each inhabitant, which is 10 to So
times greater than the countries of
Europe This abnormal loss ratio. this
annual waste, this annual ash heap is
traced to three physical sources:
Lack of laws and ordinances regulat-
ing the construction of buildings: lack
OF knowledge on the part of owners
and tenants on what constitutes fire
hazard and hazards common to each
individual risk; and lack of knowledge
relative to building, to reduce danger
of fire.
The Illinois Fire Prevention asso-
citation is conducting a campaign OF
education among the business men of
the state of Illinois and with that
idea in mird is paying the city of Rock
Island a visit tomorrow, that it may in
spect the city and meet the business
men in an informal discussion of fire
prevention. This meeting will be held
at the Rock Island club Wednesday ev
ening, June Il, to which the public is
cordially invited.
