CHARGE WIFE WITH DEATH OF HUSBAND
.'Case of Mrs. Quinn to Be Tried Monday, Is Attracting Attention. (National New Association) CHICAGO, April 13. The case of ?Mrs. Jane Quinn, which is scheduled ito be called for trial at the Cook (County Criminal Court on Monday, is jattracting more than ordinary interest jowing to the many peculiar features vi mystery it presents. iwrs. yuinn is charged with the murder of her third husband, John M. Quinn, who was killed by a pistol shot while In bed on the morning of November 2, 1911. Since the arrest on suspicion of Mrs. Quinn. a short time after the death of her husband, the authorities have collected a great maBs of evidence conjcerning not only the present case 'against the woman, but the whole past history of the accused, which contains imany points of sinister aspect. John M. Quinn was a street railway jmploye in Kalamazoo, Mich., when he met and shortly after married the wojrnan now charged with his murder. :Her former, second, husband, Warjren Thorpe, a wealthy farmer, near &ackson, Mich., according to her stateiment, had committed suicide by shootling himself in June, 1903. After her marriage to Quinn she kept a boardling house in Kalamazoo for a while, jbut soon she removed with her husHband to Chicago, where they located In the Kensington district on South Michigan Ave., near 110th street. On pthe morning of Quinn's death Mrs. fQuinn reported to the police that he had been killed and robbed by a burglar, with whom she alleged to have had an encounter. Detectives visited and searched the liouse shortly after the murder and found hidden behind the bathtub and 'wrapped in a piece of cotton cloth a revolver with one empty and several loaded shells, the calibre of which corresponded with the size of the bullet found in Quinn's breast. It was ascertained that the revolver was the property of J. W. Miller, a roomer in the 'house of the Quinns. Miller testified during the inquest that a day or so before the murder he missed the revolver which he always kept in his bureau drawer. He spoke to Mrs. eiuinn about it and she requested him ot to say anything about It to her husband. She offered to pay for the .'.gun, in case it should not be found iagain. Mrs. Quinn was arrested on suspicion and, after the Coroner's jdury had given a formal verdict, charging her with having shot her husband, Bhe waB taken to the Hyde Park police station. Later she was indicted by 'the Grand Jury and her case set for next Monday. The past history of Mrs. Quinn, as ascertained by the efforts of the police and as it will be presented at the trial, wes replete with tragedy. Mrs. -Quinn was formerly Jennie Taylor, !and, it Is believed, was born in London, Ont. She was a handsome and runusually attractive girl and had many suitors. She entered upon her first recorded matrimonial venture on October 23, 1883, when she married John McDonald, a wealthy resident of London, Ont. After a few years McDonald and his wife removed to Jackson, iMichigan, where a daughter, Pearl 'McDonald, was born to them. While living in Jackson,; Mrs. McDonald frequently visited her sister, Mrs. Alice Sparks, who was a housekeeper for Warren Thorpe, a wealthy farmer near fjackson. There she met Thorpe, who tbecame quite fascinated by the handsome Mrs.' McDonald. Was a Drinking Man. McDonald suddenly died on Septem ber 23, 1901, and as he had been a drinking man it was readily believed that he had died from "alcoholic pois oning," as his widow asserted. About one month after the death of McDonald his widow married Thorpe, who had several grown-up children from a former marriage. The marriage, it Eseems, was not very happy and vioflent quarrels were frequently the or der of the day. One Sunday morning kin June, 1903, Thorpe was shot while Oltllll V 1 u.s. -'-'- - " O " O " - his shoes. When arrested on suspicion, Mrs. Thorpe stated that her husband ad committed suicide. Although there ere grave doubts concerning the truth of her statement, there was no positive evidence against her and she was acquitted. It was ascertained teince then, that on the samj morning tFhorpe intended to visit one of his married sons with the intention of deeding to him a 160 acre farm. After Thorpe's death his widow went rto Kalamazoo, Mich., where she became acquainted with John M. Quinn, who shortly after became her third husband. It is stated that the accused woman inherited considerable pro perty from her first and her second pusband and several other relatives of jrThorpe and McDonald will appear as witnesses against Mrs. Quinn at the coming trial.

Duties of the Claquers. The claque has never flourished in English theaters, but is a powerful institution in France, where a "chef de claque" enjoys a recognized status and makes a comfortable income. It is a mistake to suppose that the only duty of claquers la to applaud. A well organized claque includes some members who have cultivated the art of infectious laughter. These "chatouilleurs" attend the lighter forms of drama and laugh so heartily and naturally that their neighbors join in and leave the house convinced that the play must be a funny one. Then there are the "pleureuses," who are paid to shake with sobs at the right moment during melo dramas. London Chronicle. Hamilton:

VANILLA BEANS.
They Are Not Beans at All, but Pods Filled With Tiny Seed. The- vanilla plant is the only orchid of any industrial value. As orchids go, the plant is not unattractive, forthe foliage is much greener and more enduring than iu the case of most of the species. It is a climber, and when the leaves are fresh it brightens a small tree trunk wonderfully. The Vanilla planifolia, to give It its full name, is a terrestrial parasite. It climbs from the ground, but once established has feeding stations on the bark all along the line. The leaves long, very smooth and light greenare alternate, and at the axil of each is a sucker a few inches in length that fastens itself securely to the tree, lying fiat against the bark. The blossoms are inconspicuous. It Is the resultant pods that are the vanilla of the industrial world. They are slim pods six to eight inches long and when dried for the market are of a rich, deep reddish brown. These are called vanilla beans, but without warrant. They contain no bean: the seed in them is as fine as dust. These seeds are the black specks that are usually found in the finest grade of vanilla ice cream, the best chefs the world over preferring to grind the "bean" rather than use the extract. Vanilla is found growing wild in the Bahamas, West Indies and Central America. In Madagascar and some of the neighboring islands it has been introduced and now forms an important article of export. But American vanilla is the best. Harper's Weekly. Played No Favorites. John Addison Porter, once secretary to the president, overdrew his account on one occasion, when he went off on a vacation, and Comptroller Tracewell disallowed it. When Secretary Porter returned to Washington he told the president about It, and President McKinley telephoned to Tracewell to come to the White House. On his arrival there Tracewell was asked why he had disallowed that account, and he replied: "I disallowed it, Mr. President, because it is my duty as comptroller of the treasury to protect the money of the people from every kind of misconstruction of the law. If you should draw one month's salary in advance I should certainly disallow it."
