western Newspaper unlon Mews service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Grand Junction, Colo.-Mrs. Clara b.
Carter died two weeks to the hour
after the date she had predicted her
death. A post-mortem examination
will be made to determine the cause
of her death, although physicians at
tribute it to starvation, condition
the woman brought on herself.
Mrs. Carter spent her last hours
making paper flowers to be used in
decorating Ter coffin. She left an ex-
tended obituary notice of her life, with
the request that IT be published in the
newspapers. According to this, she
was born in 1876, in Belleplain, Kan,
and was converted at Burlinsame,
Kan, at the age of sixteen. She was
educated in the schools of Kansas and
came to Grand Junction eight years
ago, since which time she had been
prominent in the upbuilding of the
city, using every opportunity to ad-
own statements.
Mrs. Carter made every preparation
for her burial, even to the extent of
arranging with the Rev. j. J. Gibliu a
few days ago to preach her funeral
sermon on Wednesday. She told him
at the time that she was certain she
would die in plenty of time for the fu-
neral services. She also told the
nurses that she intended to return to
earth in spirit form and see how her
instructions had been carried out She
was especially cheerful in arranging
for her burial and funeral and took
genuine delight in it, according to the
nurses. She purchased a $500 coffin,
had her grave dug and cemented, and
picked out the gravestone to be placed
at her grave. The body of her six
year-old daughter, who had been bur-
led in Kansas, was brought here at her
request some time ago, to be inferred
in the grave with her. Mrs. Carter is
survived by two brothers, one residing
in Montana and the other in Canada.
