Many BACHELORS ANO
W|D0WERS WERE STUNG
To Tune of $4,000 By Addie
Jewell Through Fake
Advertisements.

New York, Feb. S.-Defrauding
rich bachelors and widowers out OF
more than $4,000 through fake adj
vertsements is the charge made by
Federal authorities against Addie
Jewell.
Miss Jewell. known under seven
aliases, was indicted by a Federal
grand jury to-day, charged with hav-
ing used the mails TO defraud. Fed
eral Inspectors have been on her
trail for IL years, and each time
they We're ready to nab her she elud-
ed them until to-day.
The indictment charges both her
and her partner. John A. Jewell,
alias William II. Wilson, of Bridge
port, Conn, with having made more
than 30 bachelors and widowers be-
lieve that they were going at last to
secure the right kind of housekeep-
er, who eventually would prove to
be the ideal wife.
The advertisement which she is
alleged to have inserted in many
newspapers throughout the country
read: "A Protestant widow. with
little girl, would give services for
pleasant, comfortable home for her
self and child for winter; good
houekeeper; would prefer country
Mrs. Gertrude Morgan"
Under the guise of kindly house

General Nogi and he and his wife
plan to spend the remainder OF their
lives as keepers OF this shrine. No
doubt this browning act OF loyalty
will serve, to cnshrine Nogi among
the greatest OF national heroes and
thousands will come from all quar-
ters to worship at his shrine. We
have heard OF one obscure Christian
paper that had the hardihood to ex-
press disapproval of General Nogi's
suicide.
Hardly a day passes without see
ing the report Of the suicide of some
student who had failed on an exam
ination. or of some lovers who would
prove their undying love by dying
together. These cases are publish
ed far and wide, and in many in
stances are held up for admiration
If not for imitation.
Along with these we find a con-
siderable number who have fallen
into disgrace, and taken their own
lives rather than face the shame.
These are held to have atoned in
some measure at least for their mis-
deeds.
1.-The above view of suicide stands
I'm striking contrast with the abhor-
renee with which westerners regard
suicide in almost any form, and ex-
plains the terrible prevalence of sui
eide in Japan.
1T would take us beyond the
scope of this article to discuss the
causes that have brought the Japa-

OHIO COUNTY MAN IL

a wedding which brocght togeth-
er tie lives of two popular Clarks-

in Dolan, when Miss Annie Miller
was united in marriage to Mr.. j. r.,
Shultz, the ceremony being per-
formed by Rev. w. s. Lagrone, pas
tor of the Methodist church. The
young couple had been sweethearts
for several years and, while there
was some speculation as to whether
they would be married or not, the
opinion prevailed that they would
be. but the marriage was quite a
surprise to a number of their friends
at any rate.
The bride is sweet. attractive and
accomplished. is of happy turn OF

certainly possesses all the necessary
attributes OF both heart and mind

2 THINK II HONOR TO KILL SELF
Suicide Practiced By High
FunctiOnaries- Imitat.
ed BY The Poor.
A NEARLY EVERY DAY AFFAIR

n. w. Myers, writing from Kobe,
Japan, gives this striking story of a
Japanese view of suicide:
EARLY in December Buddhist
priest living In Osaka found he had
lost two yen--one dollar-and he
accused little girl of IL years, liv-
ing near, of taking his money. The
little girl denied all knowledge OF
the theft but the priest insisted that
she had taken the money, and must
return 1t. In great distress the lit
tie girl finally wrote a letter to her
parents expressing regret that she
would be unable to grow up and
care for them in their old age. and
urging them to give her little broth
err a good education and make a man
of him. Then she tied cord
around her neck and hanged herself
to rafter to prove her innocence
of the theft.
"The sequel to this sad event was
striking. The leading papers gave
columns of space to the event, prais-
ing the spirit of the little girl, and
opening subscription list for her
family. In e. short time more than
five hundred yen was subscribed in
sums ranging from a few sen up to
a yen. ODE used in erecting mon
ument to the little girl and in CIV
ing an education to her brother. No
where do we see but praise for the
girls action.
Similar to the above was the
case of poor woman in a small
town south of Tokushima. AS she
bought some vegetables from pass
ing vendor, she noticed that his XII
mono was torn and volunteered to
mend it for him. While so engaged
her husband suddenly returned, and
angrily accused her of unfaithful-
ness. The poor woman got cord
as soon as he left the house and
hanged herself to prove her faith
fulness.
1.-The suicide of General Nogi on
the occasion of the funeral of the
late emperor has been given wide
publicity, and numerous explana-
tions have been given of his real
purpose. A protest against the de-
cay of the old spirit of loyalty, and a
desire to accompany the dead en-
peror seem to have been his chief
motives. Recently a wealthy Kobe
merchant devoted nearly the whole
of his fortune of a million yen to
erecting shrine in memory OF

THE FINAL DECISION
NOT To PARTICIPATE

London, Feb. 2S.-All efforts TO
move the British Government to re-
consider it's decision not to partici-
pate officially in the Panama-Pacitic
Exposition at San Francisco have
failed. Sir Edward Grey, the For
eign Secretary, when invited in the
House of Commons to-day to take
steps ito retrieve the position" said
definitely that the Government
could not consider the matter or
modify its previous decision.
Sir Edward added that in deciding
not to participate the British Gov
ernment had taken into full account
the Importance attached to the mat
ter in San Francisco and throughout
the United States. He concluded:
Il am very much aware of the i'm
mense importance of the good will
OF the United States. We attach
the greatest importance to it, and
hope that in all large questions OF
policy we have made 1t quite appar-
ent how much value We do attach 10
it,"
Arthur Lynch. an Irish-Nationai-
list member. who had been catechis-
ing the Foreign Secretary on the
subject. put in as a parting shot:
IF you attach so much import
ance to the good will OF the United
States. why don't you take better
means to cultivate it?"

CENTRAL CITY TO Be
DRY WITH THE COUNTY
Last Saloon Goes Out Next De.
Cember Decision Of
Appellate Court.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 2S.-The
Appellate Court to-day upheld The
validity of the local option election
held in Muhlenberg county last July.
The contest made by the "wets''
was purely upon technical grounds,
which the court held did not au-
thorize the setting aside of the cleo
ton.
The only place in which liquor is
being sold in Muhlenberg county is
at Central City. There are seven
saloons in the town. and under the
decision of the Court of Appeals the
town will be dry" after next De-
cember, when the last saloon license
will expire. Some of the licenses will
expire before that time, and they
will go out of business then.
When the petitioners filed their
petitions in the county court, the
Judge of the county Immediately or
dered that an election he held. The
"wets'' undertook to have the cleo
ton declared voidsupon the grounds
that their attorneys We're not given
an opportunity to examine the sig
natures, and after this examination
was made 1t was found that a num-
Der claimed they did not sigh the pc
titions, and others asked that their
names be withdrawn. The result
was that the "wets" made no effort
to carry the election. which Went
dry by large majority.
