Reunion of Girl Who Is Thought To
Be Prom Quiacy Removed to Morgue for Inquest.
"If I could only live my life over
I again, how .different it would be," were
the dying thoughts of Miss Maud
Jackson, who died at the South Chi
cago hospital yesterday afternoon at
4 o'clock. The girl, who had been an
Inmate of a resort at 2110 Harbor av
enue, was literally Durnea to aeatu
yesterday afternoon when her clothes caught afire from a match on which
she stepped.
The accident happened about 3
o'clock and despite superhuman at
tempts to save her, the fire burned too
rapidly to be quenched. She fell to the

was burried to the hospital, whe re she regained consciousness for a hort time. She was almost too weak to speak, but her actions and the few words that she could say showed plainly to those standing around her that she realized that she was a victim of her surroundings, and that she repented of her past life. That the girl stepped on a match and set her . clothes afire is the only explanation that the other inmates at the resort would give Officer McNamara, who made an Inquiry. The remains were removed to Murphy's morgue, where an inquest was held at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

Aso Parson Wanted to Show His
Friends How To Make the Sparks Fly. Clinches a 40-Foot Pole.
Residents of Washington Heights, in
the neighborhood of One -Hundred and
Third street and Went worth avenue
last night were attracted from their
homes by the cries of boys from the
street and upon investigating the cause
beheld one of the most horrible sights they will probably ever be called upon
tc witness.
Dangling from an electric wire forty
feet from the ground, was Asa Parson
a 16-year-cld boy, wno jivea at iu
West 103rd street, who had just been
electrocuted by a 6.000- volt curren ft'om an arc lamp wire of the Common wealth Edison Electric company.
The terible accident occurred about
8:30 last night while Parson, in com
pany with several 01 ms otner com panions were playing in the street un der the arc light. Parson had been ex
plaining to his playmates that he had
been experimenting with electricity. He
offered to show them how he could
make sparks fly from an electric wire,
Upon their ridiculing him he climbed
the 40-foot pole and seating himself
or. the cross arms he took out his knife and touched the electric wire.
A big spark shot out from the wire

CR0MWALL SHORT AT AUCTION. New -York, Oct. 6. John D. Rockefeller does not care to pose as a col
lector of antiques. At least this is the conclusion arrived at by the customs authorities at this port, who today put up for sale among a varied assortment of other articles a sword said to have been worn by Cromwell and which the Standard Oil magnate cpuld have had by paying the duty on the weapon. Some months ago the sword was consigned to Mr. Rockefeller by an
Englishman, an admirer of Mr. Rockefeller, n a short note attached to the sword the sender said the relic was vouched for as having belonged to the great Commoner, and that only pecuniary reasons influenced her in. disposing of an heirloom of such priceless worth. When the sword reached the
custom house Mr. ttocKefelier was.
communicated with,' but he refused to either accept the sword or pay the accruing' duties and as a consequence the weapon was offered for sale at public auction today together with other unclaimed articles. '

VALPARAISO Two Entertainment Courses. Valparaiso is to have two entertain ment courses this season. In add!
tion to the splendid lyceum course ar
ranged by the Brotherhood of St.
Paul to be held in the Methodist church there will be a course in the
Presbyterian church, the talent having
been secured from the Glazier Bu
reau of Chicago. The first number on
the program occurred last evening when the Hon. James R. Barkley gave a chalk talk and recited poems by Riley and others to a good sized crowd. The Methodist course, which was arranged last year, will probably start Nov. 2 with the famous Whitney brothers' male quartette, which is giving its farewell concerts to the platform this year. The funeral of John Pagin, who died
Friday night, was held yesterday afternoon from the Christian church, a large number of relatives and friends being in attendance. Mr. Pagin was operated upon for appendicitis about a week ago and it was thought that he would recover, but he failed to rally after the operation. Colonel I. C. B. Sumaji, of this city, was ele eted president for the ensuing year Of the "Bloody Ninth" Indiana regiment, which has just completed its annual reunion in Michigan City. The next encampment will be held at Elkhart.

TRANS-MISSISSIPPI CONGRESS
San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 6. If the
commercial and industrial interests of the country in general and the great west in particular are to be advanced by the intelligent discussion of scores of men well qualified to speak on the subjects assigned them, then practical
results of a lasting character may be expected from the deliberations of the
nineteenth ennual session of the Trans
Mississippi Commercial Congress which began in this city today. The
congress has grown in importance with each year of its life, until at the pres
ent time it is recognized as the most influential commercial organization In America. It was chiefly instrumental in interesting the federal government
in the work of irrigating ine aria lands of the west and it has had a prominent part in promoting the improvement of waterways and harbors and in many other matters relating to the welfare of the country at large. The proceedings today were of a preliminary character. Though practically all of the delegates have arrived in the city, the real work of the convention will not begin until tomorrow morning. J. B. Case of Abilene, Kan., will preside and the speakers will indue' E. H. Harriman and others of national prominence. Trans - Pacific trade, closer relations with the Latin republics, the Panama canal, public ownership of utilities, parcels post and postal savings banks, irrigation and
drainage, national finance, the sugar
beet industry, interstate commerce,
leasing of public lands and dry farming are some of the Important subjects
that will receive attention.
Galveston, San Antonio. Denver, Seattle and Omaha are bidding for the honor of entertaining next year's meet
