THE COLUMBIAN.
A LOVELORN SUICIDE
Engagement Broken, R. R.
Remington Kills Himself.
GREAT SHOCK TO HIGH SOCIETY.
(ilrl In Case n GranddnnKhter of
- Mr. Wllllnm Antor and lcnd
Sinn Well Known In IVenr
York and .eiort.
' NEWPORT, K. I., Aug. lO.-Mltter
disappointment over n broken matri
monial engagement is believed to have
been the cause of the suicide at tho
Heading ISootn of Robert Reading Rem
ington of New York. Mr. Remington
came over to the Reading Room from
his rooms fit the La Forge cottage
nbout 1 o'clock and shortly after 2
sought the seclusion of the committee
rooms on the second door of the club
house. About 2:110 two sharp but some
what muflled reports were heard, but
those In the building appear to have
ascribed them to automobiles going by,
and no attention was paid to them.
About an hour afterward Mr. Reming
ton's body was found, he evidently
having been dead for some time. A
loeal undertaker was notified, and the
body was at once removed to his
rooms. The report of the suicide caused
a great shock to the summer residents
In this city.
. His engagement to Miss May Van Al
en, daughter of James Van Alen and
granddaughter of Mrs. Wllllnm Astor,
has been the topic of discussion for
some months. At first it was denied
and then nlHnned, and It Is generally
believed that there was a definite en
gagement, of the young people up to
within the last three weeks, when It
was broken. Since then Mr. Reming
ton has been very gloomy and de
spondent, although when asked about
the engagement he steadily affirmed
i that he was to be married In the fall.
; He left the city about a week ago,
breaking up his domestic arrangements
here and sending away all his effects.
Last Thursday, however, ho suddenly
returned to Newport. Ho- had fre
quented the Reading Room, which is
the leading club of Newport anil a gen
eral lounging place for the men of tho
summer colony, but had kept aloof
from every one and seemed to desire
to be left alone.
Mr. Remington was nbout thirty-five
years of age and a member of the firm
of Remington Mros., advertising
agents, of New York. Although of no
very large means, he nevertheless was
quite closely identified with the social
colonies of this city and Now York.
He had great friends in both places
mid had been u constant visitor to
Newport for the past seven or eight
years. Ho mot Miss Van Alen some
jears ago, but it was only during the
past year that their names had been
coupled. About two months ago the
engagement between the two was an
nounced, but soon after tho marriage
of Miss Van Alen's sister Sarah to Mr. j
Robert J. Collier In this city, July 20, It '
was stated the engagement between
Mr. Remington and Miss Van Alen had
been broken. It Is said that Mr. Van '
Alen was greatly opposed to the en
gagement from the beginning.
Mr. Remington had always been
known as a man of very quiet tastes.
He was nn expert autoniobilist and
seemed to enjoy this amusement. He
was well liked and had numerous
friends.
When the news was broken to Miss
May Van Alen, she was greatly affect
ed. A physician was called in, and the
entire family was greatly shocked.
Mr. Van Alen made tills statement:
"I had the engagement broken off be
cause I thought Mr. Remington's mind
was unbalanced. .Many things which I
had sjou myself and which had been
brought to my attention led me to this
conclusion, and It seemed to me an am
ply sutlleient reason for severing the
proposed connection. Latterly Mr. Rem
ington has written letters to me and
members of my family which I only
can describe as insulting. In some the
motives aitd meaning of the writer
were utterly incomprehensible, while
others were filled with references to
my daughter couched In the most ex
traordinary language.
"Notwithstanding this Mr. Reming
ton frequently visited my house and j c c" c&'stL' J"5
always was courteously received. Yes- I Cries! & Ohio..'. 64
terday he wrote to Miss Van Alen apol- ! Krte 39

vlous letters, but his note contained i'jouIh'"& Niish." tr,7
nothing to suggest that he contemplat- Manhattan Con 147
ed any such desperate act. I believe he ; Missouri I'ac... m
has been mentally unbalanced " for ' r.o'" w'", '
some time, though I cannot help say
ing 1 think It showed cruel lack of con
sideration for my daughter that he
should have chosen such a place and
such n time to end his life In this
way."

EVREUX, Franco, Aug. 15-While
Mr. find Mrs. Charles L. Fair were
speeding In their forty-five horsepow
rr automobile from Trouvllle to Purls
the machine swerved and crashed Into
n tree, killing Mr. and Mrs. Fair and
shocking their chauffeur so liadly that
he has become insane.
The accident occurred tit half past
o'clock In the afternoon and almost
In front of the Chateau Mulsson du
Mai. The Fairs Intended to dine and
spend the night in Paris and return to
Trouvllle for lunch.
Ths wife of the gatekeeper of tin
chateau was the only witness of the
disaster. She says she noticed a big
red automobile coming along the road
ut n tremendous puce. Suddenly some
thing happened, and the heavy ma
chine slid sideways from the right to
the left side of the road for about sixty
yards. It then dashed up an embank
incut, turned a complete somersault
and crashed Into a big elm tree in
front of the gate of the chateau. The
automobile was completely wrecked,
the front axle was broken, and other
parts of the machine were smashed,
Including the steering gear. When the
automobile turned over, the wife of the
gatekeeper says she saw Mr. and Mrs.
l air thrown high In tho air and fall
wltli a heavy thud to the ground. The
chauffeur, who was sitting behind tho
I-a Irs, was precipitated Into a ditch.
J ho accident was evidently due to
the bursting of a tire. At the time it
occurred the automobile, which was
"capable of running seventy-four miles
an hour, was going at the rate of six
ty-two miles an hour.
TROUBLE WITH TURKEY.
Stnte Department ttfllclnls Admit Hv
Istenee of Tcnmlnn.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-It Is ad
mitted nt the state department that
there is a renewal of tension but ween
the I nlted States and Turkey, but the
otllclals do not deem It prudent to dis
close the present condition of affairs,
Ihey say, however, that the condition
Is in no way grave, but is of that
strained character which has occurred
from time to time with Turkey In re
cent years. It Is gathered that the
present tension grows out of the long
pending claims of Americans who suf
fered loss during the Armenian out
break. To some extent the Stone ab
duction gave added cause for irrita
tion. The American minister. Mr. Lelsh
niiiii, has been given wide latitude to
deal with the situation as circum
stances may demand. There Is tho
fullest confidence on the part of the
authorities here In the course being
pursued by our minister, and as he has
been given such a free hand In direct
ing affairs it is not thought desirable
to prejudice any steps he may be tak
ing by official comments as to what
has been or will be done.

PARKS FOR THE PEOPLE.
The Turf Is Not So Much llnrt hy th
Feet as It Is from Roll
kxlinimllon.
The question of rcmtn injy or repine
ing- "Keep off tJje grass" igns in pub
lie parks lias become one of lively in
terest in many fl lies because of u re
port that the turf, in Central park,
New York, is in danger, on account
of the crowds not boiiifr kept to the
roads and paths, remarks the Cleve
land Plain Dealer.
Comparison of experiences leads' to
the conclusion thnt It Is not k much
the feet of the people stray ng over
the grass thnt has. caused the mis
chief as the Inijudgnient of the park
management. The turf Is perishing
because the toil is becoming exhaust
ed. Other parks have for years bean
free to the people, who are allowed
to wander where they please and set
tie themsrlvrs down on the cool turf
In twos and three, and In larger fam
ily proups. 1'ark parties pather and
school picnics bivouac under the shade
of the trees, while the children romp
and fcamper In the open spaces with
no "Keep off the grass" signs to scare
them to the roads made perilous by
swift nutonud lies or thronged with
carriages. In spite of all this the
priiss In these narks flourishes, the
turf seeming to be the better Instead
of the worse for this-usage.
I he pnrks are for t.he people. The
only way the masses of the people
can enjoy themselves J by having
the freedom of the grass. The ex
perience of other cities, as well as
that nf Cleveland, Is that under rea
sonable repulationsi such use of the
park Is not injurious to the turf,
provided care Is taken to keep the
soil in condition to supply the prnss
root with proper nourishment.
NEGRO SCARED WHITE.
trnnse F.fTeet of Terror on the Illaek
Conk of an Eastern Snll-Inu-
Ship.
Fear of death in the nml.-t of a storm
which threatened, to send the schoon
er Fred A. Small to the bottom is said
to have changed Ilerm Illanco, a full-
blooded negro, into u white man. The
chanpe lasted three days. Then, so
the s4ory goes', lilancoV natural color
asserted itself once more, and he re
sumed his place on shipboard as a
man of ebony, reports the New York
Mail and' Fxpress.
"I had heard of a nepro turninp
white from fright," said Cnnt. Z. It.
Thomson, of the Small, "but it was the.
first- time I ever snw such a transfor
mation. Ordinarily Itlanco is as black
as night, hut while the storm lasted
he was almost as white as snow."
In a wrecked condition the schooner
came into port the other day, and
was towed to dry clock. Three weeks
apo she left Valparaiso with a carpo
or wood, birds and monkevs. Six davs
later she ran into a severe storm.
For four days and nights, her crew
was kept on cVck. On the fifth din-
topmast and bows-prlt. went bv the
board. All this time Ttlnnen. the cook.
Is said to have prown whiter and

Take c.nre of the stomach and the health
will tnke care of itself. If people only
renlizcd the soundness of that statement the
majority tniyht live to good old npe like
Mosc "the ee tuiditiintcd, the natural
force unabated." It is in the itomaih that
1 he blood is made It is from the stomach
that nourishment is dispensed to nerve and
mimcle. If the stomach is "weak" it can't
do its hole work for each pait of the iiodr.
If it is diseased the disease will taint the
nourishment which is distributed, and so
spiead disease throughout ihe body. It was
the realization of the importance of the
stomach as the very center of health ami the
common source of disease, which led Dr.
Pierce to prepare his "Golden Medical Dis
covery. ' "Diseases which originate in the
stomach mu-.t be cured through tlu sto-
niacn." 1 he soundness of this theory is
proved every day by cures of diseased
organs, hcari, liver, lungs, blood, by the
use of the "Discovery" which is solely and
singly a medicine for the blood and organs
nf digestion and nutrition. It inn temper
nncc medicine containing no alcohol, whisky
or other intoxicant.
