YOUNG AMERICAN
 WOMAN SUICIDE
 VICTIM IN FRANCE

Paris, July 1.-The body of the young American woman who yester- day committed suicide at VdIlebon, near 1Eeudon, has been identified as that or Agnes Firth MacDuff of Mas Eachusetts avenue Cambridge, Mass. The name and address were found on a bicycle license issued by the author ities to her on Sept 12, 1912.
 The young woman took poison on June 1e. and fingered until July A. It was thought at first by the doctors that she was going to recover.
 She steadfastly refused to disclose the reason for her desperate act.
 Some friends in Boston of the dead woman telegraphed the desire that she should be crernated here, but the French law forbids the cremation of Khe bodies of persons who have been murdered or have committed suicide. The body will, therefore, probably be buried in Paris.
 Cambridge. Mass, July 7-Agnes Firth MacDuff whose suicide is re- ported from Paris. is not known in Cambridge although it is believed that she may have lived for a time at one Of the many lodging houses on Massa- chusetts avenue. During the past two years frequent mention has been made in foreign news despatches of Agnes Firth, who was described as an avia- trix from Cambridge Inquiry here has always failed to identify the woman, and it Is thought that she never had a permanent residence in this city.

WOMAN'S MISSIONARY
SOCIETY NJ. {. CHURCH
MEETING At ROSWELL

more beautiful morning or more
beautiful ride can hardly be imag-
ined than that enjoyed by several
Marietta ladies last Thursday morn
ing on a trip to Roswell
With the glory of the morning
upon them, the beauty of the Country
through which the roads runs, about
them and the songs Of the birds fill
ing the air, was ii any wonder that
their hearts and minds were in a
most receptive mood for the good
brick church in quaint, historic Ros-
we'll, where the annual meeting of
the Womans Missionary Society of
the Marietta District was in session
with Mrs. Fannie Hutcheson. Dis
trict Secretary in charge of the ser
vices.
After a most impressive devotion
al by Mrs. Frank jenkins, of Canton,
the work of the session was taken
up. After roll call, reports, etc, Mrs.
w. A. Albright, of Atlanta, LIST vice
President of the Woman's Council,
gave fine talk on Our Children;
she stressed the Importance of child
life in the church and missionary
work, the foundation upon which
the church of tomorrow must be built
She spoke of the work of missions
as science, and surely it has be-
come such, for as one attends these
annual meetings from year to year,
Of the Conference and District So
cieties, one realizes whit magnifi-
cent progress is being made in all
the departments Of the work, and
that only such results could be at
tanned through scientific principals.
She spoke too OF the Juvenile Mis-
sionary Society on the building of
the young life, helping to make it
strong and enduring as the years
go on. Would that all the mothers
of the Methodist church of this Dis
trict, as well as other churches, could
have heard this fine address.
After the benediction, dinner was
served on the grounds and such a
dinner! Truly feast for the Gods.
1t was like unto the feast of the
loaves and fishes, for it seemed as
if twelve basketsfull might have been
gathered up after those in attend
ance had been fed, so great was the
abundance of good things.
The afternoon session was devoted
to the reports from the auxilliaries,
talk on the literature of the So
ciety by Mrs. George Thompson, of
Atlanta, followed by an Institute on
young peoples work, by Mrs. w. f.
Trenary, formerly of Marietta.
A wokers conference was held by
Mrs. j. \. McEachern, of Atlanta.
The society was most fortunate in
having with them a returned mis-
sionary, Miss Kate Cooper, of Wous-
an, Korea. who spoke very earnest
ly and feelingly of her work there.

The Marietta delegation was oblig-

greet, as the program promised many
good talks for that evening and Fri
day but were very thankful that the
cay had been so full of good things,
