COHEN MADE WILL DAY
BEFORE HE KILLED SELF
Young Clubman Suicide, Who
Murdered Grandmother,
Leaves Estate to His Father.
A day before Henry Bamet Cohen,
young society and club man, murdered
his grandmother, Mrs. Clotilda F. Cohen.
S5 years old, nnd then shot himself at
his home. 331 South i'lst street. March
30, he made out tils will, and left his es
tate vnltied nt $2500 to his fntlier, Charles
J. Cohen, piesident of the Chamber of
Commerce. The will was offered for pio
bate today.
The will, which was dated March 29 and
written in Ink, didn't bear the name" of
any wilnese. It wns mnde out on a
sheet of paper evidently loin rut of n.
note book. The entile leslnmcnt cuiers
less (halt 20 wotds. Hfsliles lieuenlhluir
Ids estate to his father, ho names him as
CNcculor and requfsts thai he should per
form his duties without the filing of a
bond.
On Hip top of the paper the dale of
March S3, which wns the day before the
tragedy, appeal 3. Then the following
words appear. '
"I. Henry Bat net Cohen, am of hound I
am of hound 1
mlnd and possess full knowledgp of this 1
act nt the present time,
.
Reading of the will today caused the
police and the Coroner's office to believe
that young Cohen had planned the
trngedy and that al the time when h.!
wrote the document he had his mind
mado up to murder his giandmother
whom he Idolized in older to save her
fiom suffering and also to end his life.
Cohen was 32 yenrs old. He killed Ills
grandmother the morning after having
dinner with her and his parents on tho
eve of tho rnssover holidays, while she
wns asleep. After killing her he Hied
a shot Into his right temple, lie died
shortly afterward in the Jefferson Hos
pital. WOULD PAY HOME'S DEBT

FLORAL TRIBUTES ON GRAVES
GIVE SCIENTIST THE "WILLIES"
Professor Walters Overcome Every Time He Sees Suck Inef
fective Display , of Mourning At Work on
Appropriate Funeral Design.
If there's one thing more than any
other that America ought to be ashamed
of. It's the floral tributes we place on
the graves of our dead.
Prof. Henry Guy Walters, the plant
ps.ichologlst of Laiighorne, Is responsible
for this statement. Kiory time he hns
1 occasion to go through a cemetery, he ,
1 sais, he gels the "willies," and It takes ,
! him n whole week to recover.
, Ordinarily, lie's 11 brave man. The '
1 things that he does to loses, and lilacs,
land hnlljbocl.s, nnd Ijucnlvplus tiees,
1 ulthout so much as a "by your leave," is
pioof of this. Hut the cemeteries get his
Angola for sure. He could stand spookH
and skeletons. If necessary, but when it
loim'.s to the wreatliH nnd bouquets that
'adorn the giavcs. he shivers In depnlr.
"The taste ihat we dlspbn In our
i floral nccrolog.i." lie said, will), leant In
his ees. "would not be win thy or an
uncivilized mil Ion. The very idea of pul-
ting flowers on a grave, that sliilvel up
and wither almost lipforo you can get
awav.
"It's
Its norttulr. oarlmiou'?. funeral ue-
signs should be of classic outline and of
..1&n n.wl .nCn ll... ,.1,1. ,, fCAA..,
color and taste that Rome mid tirecce
might hap been proud of, and no flow
ers should be tibed which do not express
the element of perpetuity."
The professor has not yet fashioned a
funeral design to inert his conception of
the requirements of good taste, but he Is
giving ihe matter graio consideration,
and it Is safo to prophesy that before
long our cemeteries will be models for the
world to copy.
In the meantime his little cottage on the
mnlii sirpft of the Bucks County town.
I which serves as a home and n plant fac
tory, is humming with the new Ideas
which the professor Is developing. Pei
fectly Innocent Ilttlo "plnntles," that

thm to go.
HORRORS! "WHITK WINKS" MAY

So Thinks Solicitous Resident Until

A. M. Cressman, of S139 Bace street, has
been both disturbed nnd perplexed by
stteet cleaning laborers performing

He wrote to Phector Porter, of the De

about the noise and expressing belief that
the laborers were prepailng for service
In the ItnlUp army.
Director Cooke, of the Depattment of

But It's nil In the interest of science.
Referring to himself variously as a "blg
beaneil, lilgh-browcd recluse" and a "bit
of mud flung from tho wheel of Journal
ism," the professor spends all his waking
hrurs communing with Wllllnin James
and I.ombioso In an effort to solve the
pioblein of harmonizing the tlower world
and eventually making tilings "glow
big."
"Tho trouble with most of us," said the
professor dogmatically, tugging vigor
ously at his vivid red tie. "is that we
spend our lives running nt nuitd on the
r lilt of .a penny when we might be going
' it on a sliver dollar If we think big mid

Witllo walling for the giant trees to
