    SUICIDE OFF STEAMER :
Separation From Her E. Caused
Woman to Leap Into & Pak
Philadelphia, Sept. 24.2, do
Cassidy, of Camden, N. § o
passenger on the American U.,
er Westernland, which «via ie
from Liverpool, committed suicidé by
jumping overboard while the vessel
was coming up the Delaware river.
The woman, it is said, was heart
broken because she had left her 12
months-old baby in Ireland. The
woman, who was 28 years old, went
to Ireland in May to visit her mother.
The grandmother became greatly at-
tached to the baby, and when Mr. Cas.
sidy went to Ireland to bring his wife
home, several weeks ago, the grand-
mother pleaded to have the baby left
with her for a time. Mrs. Mrs. Cas-
sidy consented, but when she had
started across the ocean with her hus-
band she mourned for he baby and be-
came morose. The steamer was pro-
ceeding slowly up the river, when Mrs.
Cassidy asked her husband to go be-
low and get some medicine for her.
Cassidy had scarcely disappeared from
the deck when his wife climbed over
the rail and jumped into the water.
A boat was lowered and the woman
was dragged from the water uncon-
scious and past resuscitation.
PRESIDENT TO CAMP
Will Spend Seventeen Days In the
Wilds of Northern Louisiana.
Oyster Bay, Sept. 20.—Far from the
scene of official routine and free from
the details attendant upon the respon-
sibilities associated with the office of
chief executive, President Roosevelt
will enjoy 17 days in camp. This is to
be the nearest approach to a genuine
vacation that the president has allow-
ed himself. A physical and mental
recreation, as complete as his cares
will permit, is now arranged. Presi
dent Roosevelt will pitch his camp in
the northeastern corner of Louisiana,
on or about October 5. The exact spot
is yet to be determined. The plans
provide for a “camping trip,” but
every one who knows northeastern
Louisiana, knows that the canebrakes
shelter game worthy of a huntsman of
presidential calibre. Those who will
bave the good fortune to make pleas
ant the president's camp, expect that
the monotony of camp life will occa:
sionally be broken by a hunt.
PEACE IN MOROCCO

Paris, Sept. 24.—Peace has been de

MUCH DEPENDS ON WEATHER
Washington, Sept. 23.—“Every day
that frosts hold off adds millions to
the wealth of the American farmer,”
said an expert in the bureau of agri-
sulture.
This statement gives a picturesque
impression of the enormous value of
farm products in this country, and at
the same time shows how much de-
pends upon weather conditions.
According to the coroner's calendar,
for instance, September 16 sees the
great corn crop at about its height. If
fine, warm weather follows, every day
adds to the value of the crop yield and
value. The sunshine of the last week
or two means fatter pocketbooks.
Definite and detailed reports on the
country’s crops will not be issued until
the last week in November, but enough
has been learned already by the statis-
ticians of the department of the inte-
rior to justify the prediction that the
total value will exceed even the stu-
pendous figures of last year.
In 1906 the total value of farm pro-
ducts was $6,794,000,000. Official esti-
mates of a preliminary nature place
the figures for his year at almost
$8,000,000,000.
The eight staple crops—wheat, corn,
oats, cotton, potatoes, hay, barley and
tobacco—will alone yield, it is pre-
dicted, about $5,000,000,000. In addi-
tion there are meat, butter, eggs, wool,
rice, poultry, cattle, sheep, hogs and
fruit products,
The indications are that frosts will
be late this year, permitting the fullest
development of the crops. From pre-
liminary reports now in hand the
yield of the staples is estimated as
follows:
Wheat, bush.. 639,000,000 $664,560,000
Corn, bush...2,550,000,000 1,530,000,000
Cotton, 1bs...5,792,000,000 752,960,000
Oats, bush.... 965,000,000 511,000,000
Hay, tons.... 42,551,000 785,000,009
Potatoes, bush 805,000,000 183,000,000
Barley, bush.. 151,363,000 151,363,000
Tobacco, 1bs.. 569,000,000 51,779,000
Eleven Killed and Seven Fatally Hurt
By Plunge Down Mine Shaft.
Negaunee, Mich. Sept. 21.—By the
plunging of a cage 2700 feet down the
shaft of the Jones & Laughlin Steel
company’s mine, 11 men were killed
and seven fatally injured.
The cage was making its first de
scent for the day when the brake on
the hoisting drum gave way. Two
other men sprang to the assistance of
the one at the brake wheel, but their
combined efforts did not avail, and the
wire cable continued to unreel from the
drum like a weighted thread from a
lubricated bobbin. The cage shot
down 200 feet before a kiak in the
rushing cable caused it to part. Then
the cage dropped with a thud to the
bottom of the shaft, the safety catches
failing to operate. The fall had hurled
the bodies together and they lay in
one mass, from which seven, still
breathing, were taken. They are
fatally hurt,
STRANGLED HIMELF
Tied Knotted Handkerchief Abeut His
Neck Until He Suffocated.
Atlantic City, N. J, Sept.
George F. Nelson, aged 24 years, of
Jersey City, son of a prominent poli
tician of that place, committed su
cide by strangulation. He knotted a
handkerchief around his neck, and by
main strength pulled it so tight that
he slowly suffocated. He first tried to
cut an artery in his wrist. He was an
insurance broker of Jersey City. The
suicide occurred at a beach front ho
tel, and the deed was committed while
in a fit of temporary insanity.

Missing Teeth May Be In His Stomach
Glassboro, N. J., Sept. 24.—While
W. L. D. Chew has not posted notices
offering a reward for the return of his
store teeth, which he has mysteriously
lost, he is looking for information that
will lead to their present place of
concealment. Mr. Chew called on Dr.
Charles Heritage, and asked him if a
man could swallow his teeth while
asleep without knowing it. The doo
tor told him such a thing might hap
pen, but he didn’t believe it quite pos
sible. Still, Mr. Chew was sure his
teeth were in place when he retired,
but they were missing when he got up
in the morning
Pennsylvania's Opportunity.
From tha Louisville Courier-Jonrnal.
If Pennsylvania succeeds in pushing the
capitol grafters and makes it plain that the
sun of she thieving gangster ine set within
ber boundaries, the taxpayers will he amp-
ly compensated for the loss of $13,000,000,
and the advertisement gained by the State
will be of such value as to place her in a
better position than she was before the
Harrisburg ring tapped her till.
It is easy to send a pickpockes to prison,
but difficult to punish a crooked politician.
The task undertaken by Pennsylvania is
not a light one. May she succeed in the
fallest measure in accomplishing it and
may the results of ber efforts set an ex-
ample for other States and point a moral
ty profit of a loss.
obivions difficulties of the undertaking
should be a spur to ambition.
