The Weekly Mystery

Members of the Postoffice force
have worried more than a year about
the drinking fountains at the foot Of
the Court house steps. More than a
year ago the combination imam and
beast" fountain was replaced by a
newer one. The old one was left on
the sidewalk and it is there to this
day. So in order to keep the gray hairs
from the brows of Uncle Sans work
ers, Scoop would suggest its removal
either by commissioner Maroney or
by Halloween enthusiasts. It's use
fitness as hitching post has past.
Postscript-Just try and get any
water out of either of them.
1t has just been discovered by Char
lie Sprague, an Englishman, who in
vented swimming, and as usual the
Scotch have something to do with it.

was found, after search of the
building, in an unused alcove in
the basement, a revolver clutched
in his right hand. %. J. Hanson,
county coroner, announced no in

is was clearly suicide.
It was believed the assistant
postmaster had planned the suicide
earlier in the day. At noon he
asked his wife for his keys and his
papers. He later purchased a box
of shells at store here. He killed
himself with the gun he carried as
part of his duties in banking post
office funds.
Carey's wife said her husband
showed indications of worry during
the last few days but could give
no reason for his suicide.
Carey had been questioned by
inspectors several times during the
last three days, but. these ques-
lions were asked to explain GER
tain details of work in the office,
and were similar to those asked
other employees.
He was seen in the basement
shortly before his death by a JAM

The silent, courteous, sadeyed
habitute of the Bowery took a
dingy room at a hotel on Park
row. Winters he worked as COM
mon laborer at construction camps
sometimes. Summers he got cas-
Ter jobs as a waiter at Coney Is

Two years ago this strange Bow
cry character fell i'll. Steadfastly
he refused to appeal to his family.
But, when friends urged, he did
write letter to the friend of his
schildhood, the vicepresident.
Thereafter on the first of every
month, a check for $25 from
Charles G. Dawes arrived at the
hotel for Bradt Hubert. The sig

came familiar in the Bowery.
Last Friday the proud derelict
once more was stricken. An am

auto smashup at the corner of
Main and Third streets about 600
o'clock Sunday evening, when his
car collided with the rear of a
Chevrolet coupe belonging to Will
fred Larson and a Chrysler coach
owned by Ed Besser The Chrysler
and Chevrolet were parked in front
of the Jackson jewelry store and
when Mr.. Grob made the left turn
from Main onto Third street he
made too large a swing and caused
the accident. The rear tenders
and bumpers of the two parked
cars were damaged. so as to neces-
state replacement, while the front
of the Ford was badly damaged.
The Fergus Falls man settled for
the damage he had caused with no
argument. .--- f..

The Actors Theater will begin
activities for the fall season this
week. Their first production,
"The Rim of the Earth" goes
into rehearsal today.
Frank Teller, who last week
took over 'The Towns Woman"
for presentation, has added an
other to his list. 1t is musical
comedy, II Declare" by Bide
Dudley and Louis A. Simon, the
actor man. Ted Helms has done
the music.
Edgar Selwyn, looking over the
calendar for the week beyond
this and seeing no less than six
shows listed for Monday night,
has decided, cautiously enough,
to relieve the congestion as lays
within his power. Accordingly,
he has changed the opening of
his Possession" at the Booth to
Tuesday evening. To date, no
other plays are slated for that
night.
Those now booked for week
from tonight are: THE Command
Performance, at the Klaw; 1.-THE

Simon, has gone and become a
father, all unbeknownst to Lew,
and I don't suppose Bob will be
much use around the theater for
the next day or two. The infant
is to be called John Gerald-it's
