 Guests at the hotel heard groans cUining from the room occupied by Mrs. Hamilton. The door was locke d and the only means or entrance was through the transom.
 The house doctor was called and after administering first aid he had the woman taken to the hospital in an ambulance.
 All marks of Identification had been cut from the woman's clothing. There was nothing i'll -er room to aid the police in their search for the cause of her act. A book, The Roads of Destiny" by O. Henry. was found on the table beside her bed.

NEW WORLD MAP BEING PREPARED
 BY UNCLE SAM

Washington, Oct. 12-Jncle Sam is slowly progressing on new map of the country, to be a part of a new world map, based upon a simple sys- tenn proposed by American represen- tatives in 1908. and accepted at in ternational conferences. It will be the result of years of effort by map makers who have desired a system of of distances could be used in world map, with lettering and symbols uni form. The American map is expect ed to be completed in 10 or 12 years.
 Each country will map the terri tories and waters under it's own juris- diction, and the Geological Survey of the United States Interior Department is making the maps of this country.
 The globe is to be divided into 1.642 sections Each section is desig- mated by distinctive letter and mum ber combination, in addition to a ped. Each sheet, covering one sec tion, will cover six degrees of longi- tude and four degrees of latitude. The sheets are numbered from one to 60. longitude. and girdling the globe to the eastward: and are lettered from A to V, North and south with the equator as a starting point. The north and south polar regions are to be shown in circular sections from the SSth parallel of latitude, and let tered Z-North and z-South.
 The main purpose of tfe interna- tional map. which will be drawn on the scale of one to one -millionth is to furnish complete world map of uniform drawing. thus obviaung diff ferent scales of distances. and to en- able map makers and readers of every country. to understand the maps of every other. even though they do not understand any but their own tongues There will be shown only. the outlines of land and water, with depths of water and heights of land: stream and river systems. or drainage, in the man makers parlance, roads. rail and troll ley lines, towns and cities and con tours.

EVEN CHINESE PRESIDENT HENPECKED

Peklng, Oct 12.-Women's rule in Chlna seems to be as effective as it IS in the so-called enancipated of "henpecked'' men is said to rt1n very hlgh. Among this number are incIQded the President of the Repub- lie, His Excellency Lii Yuang-hung. Gossip in the capital maintains that Mrs. Ii recently caused her distin- gu1shed mate great embarra ssment when she demanded personally her
 perfume allowance" to which she is theoretically entitled from the Gov ernment as the first wife of the Presi- dent. Since the latter had previous " agreed to turn over all of his al- lowances to the Government schools and since the so-called perfume al lowance" amounts to at least $50 O0O a year, the matter was delicate
 Imperial Tradition
 Perfume funds originated in the hls concubines. The late Empress DowageT converted them to her own immediate use and allotted the rev. enue from the Picking octroi for their posed upon the commercial traffic in and out of the city gates.) At one une the total is reported to have e9ua1led ttau lied $2,ooo'ooo annually. When took office he kept the allowance per sonal1y and undoubtedly gave most of 1t to his concubines, the number of whom was considerable. Later Presi- dents followed the precedent until the return of Il Yuan-hung, who, al- ready a wealthy man, turned every thing over to the Ministry of Edu- cation for the payment of the teach CTS arrears in salaries.
 Perfidious Collector
 The teahOuse story of Mrs Lis determination to have her perfume claims that it was caused by the in- trigue of the octroi collector himself The latter had been accustomed to taking a substantial percentage for himself and felt that he could deal better with Mrs. Ii than with the' of Education.
 School teachers have a reputation them. Moreover, they would prob ably have scrutinized the octroi ac- counts to prevent any squeeze" the octroi collector made a special trip to persuade Mrs. Ii to claim her rights.
 Mrs Lis fondness for perfume is not known, but it is said that she felt the need of a promised $50,000 a year. The President was greatly peTp1exed. He is reported to be so kind that he cannot refuse anything, least of all to his wife. Perhaps he increased Mrs. Lis household allow ance of of his own funds. At any rate the teachers have made no com plaint, and it is presumed that they are. enjoying the full allotment for perfume.
