greater degree = of sympathy for
relatives and close friends over a
loss that is distinct and deplorable.
A natice of, this city, where she
grew to womanhood, Mrs. Cohn en-
joyed wide circle of friends. F. C.
Robins, the father, and Attorney
Clifford E. Robins, brother, s'are re-
ceiving innumerable expressions of
regret, which is also extended to
other relatives.
A winsome little daughter, Susie
Cohn, affectionately known to most
residents as little Sue, is left to
mourn her mothers passing, and to
her little seven-year-old mind only
wonderment can come over the rash
act of a mother who was fond, in
dulgent and possessed to an unusual
degree a deep maternal love for her
offspring.
Mrs. Cohn is believed to have
been mentally 'deranged and COM
planned throughout yesterday morn
ing of. a severe headache. However,
she worked nearly the entire fore
noon in the preparation of candy
for the children's masque ball which
was to have occurred tonight, and
took an unusual interest in matur-
ing plans to make the children
happy. Her own little daughter was
to have been participant in the
gaicties.
As proof of the theory that she
was seized with sudden suicidal
the result of great men,
tai strain, it is asserted that Mrs.
Cohn entered. q local hardware store
a few minutes preceding the shoot
ing, purchasing cartridges and load
ing her revolver, and remarking at
the same time that she was alone
great deal of late and deemed the
gun necessary as an expedient of
protection.
/. +. c.: Robins told yesterday how
his daughter had previously dis
cussed with him financial reverses,
resulting from heavy investments in
San Francisco that failed, and of
his efforts to distract her mind from
brooding over the subject. He did
not suspect, nor did other relatives
and close friends, that she had wor-
ried until she had become morbid
and unstrung to the point of ire
sponsibility.. The aged father sought.
to cheer his daughter into happier
frame of mind.
Other relatives left by the de-
ceased are Mrs. Laura Florian and
Grace and Hazel Robins.
Funeral services will be held to-
morrow afternoon at two o'clock.
Interment will be made in the fam
lily plot in the Winnemucca ceme-
terry, after services have been held
in the Methodist. Episcopal church.
Mrs. Cohn. was member of Sill
yer State Chapter, No. 6, Order of
Eastern Star, and her lodge will
have charge of the obsequies.

STORIES OF FAMOUS SONGS
America"

1t was gloomy day in February,
1889, that DR. Samuel F. Smith,
turning over the pages OF a Ger
man book OF songs, came across the
English air God Save the King"
He liked the tune.
Half an hour later he produced
the words of the national hymn of
the United States, America" or, as
some call it, my Country Tis of
Thee" which he fitted to the mel
ody OF God Save the King"
DR.. Smith was born in Boston,
1908, and was theological student
1t was in his home town, in the old
Park Street Church, that his COM
position was sung in public fer the
first time. That was on the Fourth
OF July, 1882.
The words of the great song were
written on scrap Of paper that the
composer picked up from the table
near which he was sitting when he
first thought to write them They
are substantially the same today as
when he first jotted them down.
Never was America" recognized
generally as a song that greatly IN
spired patriotism until the opening
OF the Civil war. Since that time it
has been accepted by the world as
one OF the greatest OF national an
thems.
DR.. Smith died in 1896 at the age
OF 81 years.

Sounds, the scientists tell US, are
air waves caused by vibrations.
When a tin pan falls to the floor.
it vibrates and causes air waves
much in the same manner that a
stone. when you drop it into pond,
ripples the water.
That is why a phonograph talks.
A phonograph is an instrument
which reproduces vibrations that
have been registered on a wax form
called a record. These records are
made by having someone play or
sing into the horn of a phonograph,
the steel needle OF which is running
over soft wax plate.
The sound waves caused by the
vibrations OF the vocal chords in
the throat of the person singing
beat upon the drum in the phono-
graph. 1t vibrates in unison, and
the needle, which is attached to this
drum, makes tiny dents or KICKS in
the soft wax
Later this wax plate is hardened
and thus the impressions of the
sound vibrations are preserved. We
can reproduce the vibrations by run
ming a needle over the hardened
hicks. These hicks, you see, set
the reproducing needle to vibrating,
and the drum and sounding box OF
the phonograph increase the volume
of sound so that we get an exact
or almost exact reproduction OF the
original.
But why is one note low and an
other high, you ask.
Because the two different tones
make air waves of different lengths
and because one causes more or
less waves per second. On the
piano, for instance, middle &C"
sounds lower than "A' because the
latter has ABS waves per second and
lower &C" fewer.
A musical instrument is some
thing which can be made to vibratc
at certain speed so as to produce
certain air waves, and consequently
certain tones. On the banjo, or the
guitar, for instance, the strings are
tse vibrators and send out the
waves.
In some wind instruments the vi
brations are caused by small reeds.

penny RACE" SMELLS
FUNDS FOR STUDENTS

Students in the University High
School, Chicago, Illinois, wanted to
raise money among themselves to
be used in sending boy and a girl
to school To get more funds they
originated a clever scheme in the
form OF penny race In the
race l6 pennies were equal to one
foot and the class that went the
farthest, or, in other words, raised
the most money, won.
The Freshmen were the victors,
the Sophomores were second, and
the Juniors and Seniors followed
close behind.
The drive lasted little over
week and S215.57 was collected.
