SUICIDE HEAR REMINGTON; WOMAN TAKES OWN LIFE.

Offi-oner Wright Telephoned Briefly About Self Destruction of Woman On Garrison Farm. A woman, thought to be Mrs. John Larkey, residing on the Garrison farm, about 9 miles southeast of Rensselaer, committed suicide this afterborn Her husband was in Remington when the suicide occurred. Coroner Wright was notified and will go there yet this afternoon. The family moved to Jasper county / this year from Illinois. There was a lot of water fell in Sunday's rain, and for a time Monday the banks of the Iroquois river in Rensselaei* were overflowed. Some residents from the north part of the county said they thought the fall of water was as great as it was during the cyclone, although it fell more gradually. Plowing and corn planting was given another serious delay all over the county. Occasionally some farmer reports having out from 10 to 30 acres of corn, but these cases are exceptional, and many farmers have scarcely any .ground plowed.

The Grand Babylon Hotel

(Copyright The Frank A. Munsey Co.) CHAPTER IX. Tw« Women and the Revolver. “Yon—you’re only doing that to frighten me," stammered Miss Spencer, lq a low, quavering voice. “Am I?” Nella replied, as firmly as she could, though her hand shook violently wltlT excitement, . could Miss Spencer but have observed it. “Am 1? You said just now that I might be a Yankee girl, but I was a fool. Well, 1 am a Yankee girl, as you call it; and in my country, if they don’t teach revolver shooting in boarding schools, they are gt least*a lot of girls who can handle a revolver, and I happen to be one of them. I tell you that if you ring that bell you .will suffer. , . Most of this was simple bluff on Nella’s part, and she trembled lest Mlbs Spencer should perceive it. Happily for her, Miss Spencer belonged to that order of women who have „ every sort of courage except physical, courage. Mias Spencer could have withstood successfully any mor-< al trial, but persuade her that her skin was in danger- and she would succumb. Nella at once divined this useful fact, and proceeded accordingly, hiding the strangeness of her own sensations as well as she could. •; . ■ _ “Ifeu had better sit down now,” said Nesta, “and I will ask you a few* questions.”

And Miss Spencer obediently sat down, rather white and trying to serqw her lips into a formal smile. “Why did you leave the Grand Babylon that night?*’ Nella began her examination, putting on A stern barris-ter-like expression. “I had orders to. Miss Racksole.” “Whose orders?" “Well, I’m—l’m—the fact Is, I’m a married woman, and it was' my busband’s orders. “Wbo is your husband?” “Tom Jackson —Jules, you know, head waiter at the Grand Babylon.” “So Jules’ real name Is Tom Jackson? Why did he want you to leave without giving notice?” "I’m sure I don’t know, Miss Racksole: I swear I don’t know. He’s my husband, and, of course, I do what he tells me, as you will gome day do what your husband tells you—please Heaven you’ll get a better husbapd than mine!” Miss Spencer showed signs of tears. .Nella fingered the revolver. “Well,” she repeated, “why did he want you to leave?” / s She was tremendously surprised at her own calmness, and / somewhat pleased with it, too. “I can’t tell you. I can’t tell you.”

“You’ve just got to,” Nella said in a terrible, remorseless tone. _ ' ‘‘He —he wished me to come over here to Ostend. Something had gone wrong. Oh, he’s a fearful man, is Tom. If I told you, he’d” “Had something gone wrong in the hotel, or over here ” » “Both." - - “Was it about Prince Eugen of Posen?” “I don’t know—that Is, yes, I think so.” “What bus your husband to do with Prince Eugen ?” “1 believe he has some sort of business with him —some money business.” “And was Mr. Dimmock in this business?” “I fancy so, Miss Racksole. I’m telling you all I know, teat 1 swear.” “Did your husband and Hr. Dimmock have a quarrel that night in Room 111?” “They had some difficulty.” “And the result of that was that you came to Ostend instantly?” “Yes, I suppose so.” “And what were you to do in Ostend What were your instructions?” Miss Spencer's head dropped cm her arms on the table which separated her from Nella, and she appeared to sob violently. “Have pity on me,” she murmered. “1 can’t tell you any more.” “Why?” , v * “He’d kill me, if he knew.” - “You’re wandering from Ike subject,” observed Nella coldly. “This is the last time I shall warn yon. Let me tell you plainly I’ve got the best reasons for being desperate, and if anything happens to .you—l shall say 1 did It* In self-defense. New, what were you to do in Ostend?” “I shall die for this anyway,” whined Miss Spencer, pad then with a sort of fierce despair: “I had to keep watch m Prince Eugen.” 1 "Where?

the instigation of, Jules?” “Yes, if you most hgve it” M “Why was it necessary for you specially to come to Os tend?” “Oh! Tom trusts me. You see, I know Ostend. Before I took that place at the Grapd Babylon I had traveled over Europe, and Tom knew that I knew 0 thing'or twb.” “Why did you take the place at the Grand Babylon?” “Because Tom told* me to. He said I should be useful, to him there,” “Is yehr husband an anarchist, or something of that Jcind, Miss Spencer?” “I don’t-know. I’d tell you in a minute if I 'knew. But he’s one of those that keep themselves tp themselves/ “Do you know if he has ever committed a murder?” . “Never!” said Miss Spebter, with righteous repudiation of the mere idea. 3 “But Mr. Dimmock was murdered. HS' was poisoned. If he had pot been poisoned, why was his body stolen? It must have been_ stolen to prevent inquiry, to hide traces, Telfme about that.” 'MI-*'. “I take my dying oath,” said Miss Spencer, standing up, a little way from the table, “I take my dying oftUr I didn’t know Mr. Dimmock was dead till I saw it in the newspaper." “You swear you had no suspicion of it?” . ' “I swear I hadn’t.” «- Nella was inclined to believe the statement. The woman and the girl looked. at each other. Miss Spencer nervouslypatting her yellow hair into shape, &b if gradually recovering her com posure and equanimity. ‘ The whole affair seemed like a dream to Nella, a disturbing, sinister nightmare. She was a little uncertain what -to say. She felt that she had not yet got bold of any very definite Information. (To be continued

That night he and Schuyler remained at the State hotel and it was while h» was waiting for his breakfast that he suffered an attack of heart trouble. He arose from the table and had taken but a few steps when he fell to the floor. - There seengn every probability that the excitement attending the experience of the .day before had induced the attack that caused his death.

R., of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and of the Knights of Pythias: The funeral was held this, Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock at the late residence. Rev.
