ment impossible for the moment Up
above him shooting was still going on
It reminded him Of the woman he had
abandoned in his panic and he imped
up The steps Of the high stoop, intent
upon returning to the room.
AS he opened the front door of tho
house Miss Jackson staggered into his
arms. He saw that she was badly
wounded. A little way up the block
stood a taXicab, in front Of the Hotel
Walton. Marti summoned it and placed
Miss jackson in it and directed Rob-
crts to speed to the nearest hospital
Marti said that the afternoon crowds
on Broadway paid no attention to the
sight of the wounded woman and no
one tried to stop the taxicab until he
met the patrolman.
1t was Marti's theory that after
shooting Miss Jackson Arenas had
turned the revolver on himself. One
bullet pierced the temple, one his chest
without striking vital Organ, and one
penetrated his heart.
Marti was taken to the scene of the
shooting to be Intercepted by Captain
Arthur Carey, of the homicide bureau
at Headquarters. As Walters APP
preached the house with him the pa
trolman stopped and picked something
from the sidewalk. 1t was a bullet Of
the caliber used in the revolver found
in Arcnas's rooms. Shreds of cloth
still clinging to it, identical in design
with the pattern of Marti's coat, proved
that it was the bullet which had grazcd
him.
Dentist Wore Corset
The revolver was found near Arcnas's
body. Five of the six cartridges in it
had been discharged. Arenas, it was
found, wore corset which DR.. Benja-
min Schwartz, deputy medical exam
iner, thought at first might have been
donncd as q coat of mail to protect him
against an assassin. Friends of the
dentist said, however, that he wore it
because of his vanity.
They said that he had been talking
earlier in the day of a young woman
in Havana and had decided to write
to her last night, making a proposal
Of marriage. A letter addressed to
woman in Havana was found in his
rooms. 1t had been scaled but had
net been stamped.
An autopsy will be performed to-day
to ascertain whether all of the den
fists wounds could have been self
inflicted
Arenas was twenty-six years old
and was native Of Bogota, Colombia.
He had rented the apartment on
Seventeen Street only week ago
Miss Jackson's husband is said to be
an automobile salesman in Toledo,
Ohio.
Arenas Expected to Marry Soon
Mrs. Emily Silver from whom Arenas
rented his apartment, said he had
told her he expected to bring a bride
TO the house soon from Cuba. He asked
her, she said, to send away any young
women who might call on him.
Marti was detained by the pol.sS as

Only one life is believed to have
been lost, although many localities are
isolated by broken telephone wires and
reports are not available. George Davis,
of Lisle, an aged man, just before the
storm broke set out up the Dudley
Creek after his cows. A few minutes
later dam above him broke, accord

swept down the valley, turning the
streets of Lisle into torrents.
Among the villages most severely
affected by the storm are:
Lisle, where the breaking of the
dam and the overfowing Of the
Tioughnioga left half the town under
water and in total darkness, with resi-
dents in one street marooned, so that
they can be reached only by boats:
Center ,Lisle, where the river and
creek flooded the main streets.
Killawog, where the river jumped
Its banks and entered the town.
Marathon, where the rivers course

Harpursvlle, where the Belden and
Lovejoy creeks turned torrents into the
main streets.

docile enough to do not only the will

One can't chop trees or dig angle

Nature has been her sole preceptor.
Health, good spirits, unfagging loyalty,

able to attain in the big school which
holds its sessions under the open sky.
The young man must choose between
the two. And, whom does he take?
Since the action of the play hinges

WASHINGTON, Aug 1S.-Census Of
the least populous county in the courl-

day by the Census Bureau. 1t has just
siXtyseven inhabitants. That is two
more than enumerated ten years ago,
making it's growth slightly more than
3 per cent. Cook County, ILL.,, includ-
ing the city of Chicago, probably is
the most populous county in the coun-
try Its population has not yet been
announced, but is expected to exceed
2,500000.
Cochrane is not the smallest county
in the United States, as it has an area
of 869 square miles. It's density of
population, therefore, is one person to
approximately every thirteen square
miles. The county is located in North
western Texas, adjoining the New
Mexico border. 1t is unorganized and
