Gimme My S35.ll,'
Is Burden of Letters

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Hun-
dreds of letters have poured into the
Treasury Department to-day from
persons in many parts of the country
who have gained the impression that
there is $35.11 waiting for the asking.
because the monthly circulation state
ment of the department announced
this to be the per capita circulation.
The letters came so frequently that
Treasurer John Burke issued the fol-
lowing statement, which has been
printed and sent to all inquirers:
There is no truth in the state
ment that a certain amount is due
from the department to every man,
woman and child in the country.
1.-THE statement prepared by the
department is to the effect that If the
money in the country was equally
distributed each one would be in pos
session of that amount"

Savannah's Mayor
Charges Big Graft
city's Administration Aligned in War
Against Drainage Commission
on 100000 Contract.

SAVANNAH. Feb. 21.-The fact
that the drainage commission has de-
clined absolutely to reconsider a re-
award of the 100000 drainage con-
tract, despite the report of City En-
gineer E. r. Conant that the work
had been given the highest bidder,
has made the political situation most
acute. The commission has arrayed
itself solidly against Mayor R. ]. Da-
want and his administration, and for
the first time there is some talk of
putting an opposition candidate in
the field.
Mayor Davant has taken the posi-
ton, backed by unanimous vote of
Council, that the drainage commits
sion selected the contractor who
would serve them best for political
reasons. The fact that the work can
not now be started until the fall of
this year. when the candidates for
Mayor will appear. makes it almost
certain that the drainage contract
will be made an issue.

Unable to Withstand Rumors
Contained in Anonymous Note
Concerning Husband.
SOAKS HER CLOTHES IN OIL
Then Touches Match Because of
Ungrounded Fear That He Was
Untrue to Her.

ATWOOD, KANS., Feb. 21.-Driven
to desperation at thoughts that her
husband was untrue to her and that
she would become an invalid, Mrs.
Lawrence Tongish saturated her
clothing with coal oil and applied a
match.
Alone in her house, she was envel-
oped in flames. Her husband, his
brother and neighbors saw the house
afire and found Mrs. Tongish semi
conscious on the floor. Her burns
were fatal
Her death can be blamed to the
poison pen of a letter writer, whose
identity is concealed behind a fcti-
tious name.
Husband Prominent Merchant.
These facts were brought out in the
Coroner's inquest. Mrs. Mary e
Franch at the inquest said:
Mrs. Tongish often spoke of a let
ter, anonymously signed, she had re-
ceived from Kansas City, which said:
of you want to catch your hus-
band and Mrs. - - living togeth-
er in Kansas City as man and wife,

"Mr. Tongish told me she was go
Ing to Kill herself because she could
not stand 1t If Lawrence was going to

Egyptian Women
Never Danced Tango

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 21.-The
ancient Egyptian danseuse was too
plump to have successfully danceu
the dizzy tango, and all those persons
who would contend the tango origi-
mated 5000 years ago on the Nile are
wrong, decidedly wrong.
This is the belief of Professor Max
Muller, Egyptian archaeologist at the
University of Pennsylvania. He de-
clared that the early Egyptians with
a curious prediction for obese fem
ininity invariably accorded the high
est place in the realm of terpsicho-
rean art to the stout dancer.
