MRS. ROBERT BEVAN.

Mrs. Robert Bevan, As years old, wife
of machinist, living at 33l Delaronde
street, ended her life Saturday by in
haling gas. Her body was found lying
on the floor of the kitchen by her
daughter, Alice, now Mrs. John Goff,
III Vallette street. A note, written on
a leaf of tablet paper, was found by her
side. The note was as follows:
Alice, Darling Girl-Forgive mama.
II is better to do this cowardly act than
to go to the madhouse. l feel this spell
coming on. My bank account in the
Germania and United States Savings
Bank is all yours. l will 1t to you. For
Gods sake don't let your father get it.
You know how i saved it. My diamonds
and jewelry are all yours Tell Jack
for Gods sake never to touch liquor,
and be good to you, as he always is.
MAMA.
my nerves are SO weak don't know
how to write"
The suicide was discovered at 1920
o'clock by Mrs. Golf, who, as was her
daily custom, called to visit her mother.
When Mrs. Golf opened the front door
of the little home, she detected the odor
of gas, and finding all the other doors
closed, became suspicious. She hir-
ried through the house, and when she
got as far as the kitchen door the odor
was stronger Opening that door, she
saw her mothers body on the floor,
with the gas jets of the stove open.
DR.. John R. Adams, who lives few
doors from the house, was summoned
but it was too late. Mrs. Bevan was
beyond aid. DR.. Adams then notified
the police and Assistant Coroner Rupp
The latter visited the scene and viewed
the body, giving a certificate in accord
ance with the above facts.
The first persons to reach the scene
of the tragedy were convinced that Mrs
Bevan had been deliberate in planning
to end her life and had gone about hel
preparations in systematic way. Thu
note she left was further evidence il
support OF that belief.
1t is apparent that the woman, fol
lowing the departure of her husband
for work at o'clock Ia the morning
got the piece of paper and pencil an,
penned the Indictment against her hus
band.
Then going to the kitchen she wa
careful to close all the doors and wiz
dows before opening the gas jets, fou
of which were found turned on, fror
which the deadly fumes poured into tn
room. The body was found near tn
stove, and 1t is probable that Mrs. Be
van stretched herself out on the foo
when she had arranged all to her sa
isfaction in preparing the death chan
Der.

ORNAMENTS FOR HAIR
GREAT VARIETY OF STYLES FROM
WHICH TO SELECT.
Feathers, Flowers and Chains Com
blned Are One Of the Features That
Mark the colffures Of tho
Present Season.

The hair ornaments worn with eve
ming toilets this season tend to keep
the hair in place and encourage the
neat and trim air Of the small COLI
fure. for most of them are on the t1let
or bandeau order.
The wide filet is less used than 1t
was last year, but in It's place mas
come the more generally becoming
narrow bandeau. Some OF the pref.
test things of this kind are mere sim
gle lines of large brilliants, enclr-
cling the head fatty, and usually dis
appearing under the coils or strands
or curls of the back Of the couture
though many of these bandeaux go all
the way round the head.
Pearls and other jewels or imitation
Jewels are used in the same way as
the brilliants, and often the band
is a trile wider and includes both
Jet and brilliants or pearls and bril-
liants.
Seouin and bead bands, usually less
expensive than the jeweled ones, are
liked, too. and any one OF these mar
row bands is likely to hold an orna
ment posed whereby fancy dictates
Very frequently this season fancy
seems to dictate the bizarre instead
of the beautiful, and heron aigrets, os
prey. ETC., go shooting on from the
couture at such ridiculous and un
beautiful angles as one sees In mil
linery trimmings.
But, on the other hand, there art
many delightful things among the
band and osprey or aigret hair orna
ments. the delicate spraying featheI
being sometimes posed exactly Owe
the middle Of the forehead, sometimes
dropping downward at the side. some
times curling upward at a point wei
toward the back. A jeweled cabo
chon usually holds the feather to tn
jeweled band.
Tiny mercury wings, jeweled, span
Rled, ETC., are pretty, too, in connec
ton with the pearl or brillian
circlet.
Wide bands Of jeweled gold gallon o
embroidered gold net, with or withou
narrow binding of velvet, are draw
closely around the head and fnis
with a jeweled clasp or ornament. an
velvet bands embroidered in metal o
Jewels or beads are much used, too
In Paris many of these wider swat
ing bands have cabochons GOVERN
the ears, and weird effects are e.
plotted. such as the mad tiara" whic
is a band of velvet with ear cabochon
Of the velvet and gold with straigf
aigrets standing stiffly erect all arour
the band, the shape Of the head sho7
ing through the fine feathers.
This, of course, is fantasy run ma
as is the Russian tiara with its spik
front points and its jeweled chair
hanging from side to side Of the tiaI
under the chin.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Orders for fruit trees should be plae-
ed early to insure choice stock and
prompt shipment. Nurserymen always
appreciate early orders and give the
best of service.
Remember that plants from which
seeds are to be selected must be thrift
ty, free from diseases and insects and
the seed well matured. Make no mis-
take in these matters.
Now is a good time to destroy peach
borers. Look for them on the trunks
of the trees, at the surface of the soil
or Just below the surface. Wax Is q
good indication of these insects. Cut
them out with knife.
