THE DEATH OF MRS. NOBLE.
Kevan: Police Working: to Clear Up the
Mystery Surrounding It.
NEWARK. N. J., March 2.—-Mrs. May
Noble died at her home, 93 William street,
under peculiar circumstances. The police
have a theory, but it remains for the au-
topsy to establish the cause of death. The ‘
police are searching for the woman’s hus-
band. who was sent to prison four years
ago for assaulting her and was recently re-
leased. The man has been seen in Newark
since his release.
A pair of new scissors were found in the
room where Mrs. Noble died. The scissors
were smeared with blood. One end was
bent over as if the instrument had been
used to strike a violent blow. N o wounds
were visible on the body. Mrs. Noble was
28 years old and lived here before her mar-
rings.
In consequence of a remark that Noble
made when he was sent to jail Mrs. Noble
told her friends that she was afraid of
meeting him. She had lived in several
places since the first of the month.
Robert Hibbins of 49 Arlington street
received a message from a friend in Plain-
field on Friday asking him to meet Mrs.
Noble and provide for her. As Mrs. Hib-
bins and her brother were ill at the time
Hibbins requested his friend Olin Fran-
cisco to take care of her, and Francisco
consented. Mrs. Noble staid at home on
Saturday. '
“I have a brother around the corner,”
she explained, “whom I don’t want to
meet. ” She said that his name was Wil-
liam Moore, and that he lived in William
street, near Nicholson. Mrs. Noble went
out at 7 o’clock on Saturday evening. She
remarked that as it was dark she was not
afraid. _
Nothing was seen of her for hours. The
Franciscos, with whom she was living,
went to bed, having tired of waiting for
her to return. Mrs. Noble returned about
1 o’clock yesterday morning. She was
pale and weak. She kept her hands to
her side and said that she was suffering
intensely. She also complained of pains
in her abdomen.
Mrs. Francisco took the woman to bed
with her. Mrs. Noble remained in bed all
day yesterday. Early in the evening Mrs.
Francisco went out in search of William
Moore, the brother. When he reached the
house, Mrs. Noble was dead. Dr. Reed
had been summoned, but he arrived an
hour too late.
The bloody scissors were found at the
head of the bed by one of the women in
the house. Mrs. Noble said nothing be-
fore her death that would indicate its
cause.
The police are trying to trace her move-
ments during her absence on Saturday
night, but have discovered nothing thus
far. Neither have they found the hus-
band. ~
“'ing of St. Bernard Destroyed.
BERN, March 2.—The left wing of the
great monastery of St. Bernard has been
demolished by an avalanche. No lives
were lost, nor was any one seriously in-
jured, but the monks occupying the mon- ,
astery were in serious danger for some
time. When the great masses of snow and
ice descended upon the structure, the occu-
pants took refuge in the part or the build-
ing which remained intact, and from there
were able to dig a tunnel under the snow,
through which they crawled. Most of
them ware severely frost bitten.

Death of Mrs. Edward Torry.
LONDON, March 2.——Mrs. Edward Terry.
wife of the proprietor of Terry’s theater,
died. here today.
Owing to over-crowding and bad ventil-
ation, the air of the schoolroom is often close
and impure, and teachers and pupils fre-
quently sufler from lung and throat trou-
bles. To all such we would say, try Cham-
berlain’s Cough Remedy. For coughs,
colds, weak lungs and bronchial troubles, no
other remedy can compare with it. Says A.
C. Freed, Superintendent of Schools, Prairie
Depot, Ohio: “Having some knowledge of
the efficacy of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
I have no hesitation in recommending it to all
who suffer from coughs, lung troubles, etc.”

Armless lzertrmn inn-s ‘Vlns Prizes for
Hisklflecn mine Designs. ‘ .
The achievements of Bertram Hiles
an Englishman, surpass in earnestness
and pcrserverance those of all other
armless artists. Hiles is a, youngr man
- who is making his mouth play a double.
1);... .1: his existence. With its aid lu'
is hiking prizes in drawing and art
designing. and llltllilllg,’ not only a liv4
in}: for himself but a rermtafion for the.
excellence of his designs and CULIIpOm-
tions.
Without arms of his gwn Hiles, the
Magazine of Art says, paints beautiful
women with exquisitely modelled'
arms, and does work that any one in
possession of all their muscular capaci~
ties might be glad to lay claim to.
Hiles had arms, but when eight years
old was the victim of a tram-car acci-
dent and lost both. Before this event
he had developed so strong a passion
for drawing that the loss of both arms
in no way diminished his determina-
tion to become an artist. So Hiles
educated his month until it grasped a
pencil, for brushes were beyond his
wildest dreams then. First he
learned to write, and then to draw firm
lines. ,
The muscles not only of the mouth
but of the neck required training. and
it was between five and six years be-
fore such control of them had been ob-
tained as permitted Hiles to work with
a free touch. From that time Hiles
has continued to progress, and has
not only obtained a number of Eng-
lish medals and prizes in the decora-
tive industries but won a scholarship
at the National Art Training School
tenable for two years. Hiles has vis—
ited and studied in Paris, and now is
earning his living in England, com-
bining decorative art with pictoral
work—New York World.
A Fatal Ulrielet.
Ignorance of cooking it not often the
direct cause of a man’s death, but
such an instance is related by Miss
Edith Lichel in a recent volume en-
titled, “The Story of Two Salons.” In
the time of the French revolution one
Monsieur Condorcet, upon whose head
as an aristocrat a price was set, sought
refuge with a. friend, Monsieur Suard,
who bade him return at nightfall,
when means of escape would be pro-
vided.
Unhappily Condor-cot, being unable
to exist without tobacco, went into a
tavern to buy some. Still prostrate
from fatigue, he thought he would take
advantage of this opportunity to get
some dinner and ordered an omelet.
“How many eggs do you wish to be
used?” inquired the landlord, who had
been eyeing him suspiciously.
The innocent Condorcet was at his
wits end. He reflected upon the size
of the ordinary omelet.
“Twelve,” he boldly replied.
His fate was sealed. None.- but an
aristocrat could be so ignorant or so
extravagant. He was arrested and
led away to prison, from which he
never emerged.
How Two Famous‘Songs \Vere W’ritten. .
“Marching Through Georgia,” the
favorite of military bands. and some-
times called “The American Marseil-
laise,” was written in Chicago in 1865,
by Henry C. \Vork, a remarkable song
writer. He was a printer, and often
composed the words of a song at the
case as he set up the type, and then
if he had access to music type, he;
would also compose in his mind and
set up the music, ‘these pieces seldom
requiring more than two or three al-
wrations. “Marching Through Geor-
cia” was thus composed, without ever
being put in manuscript. Mr. Work
wrote “Wake, Nicodemus,” “Father,
Dear Father, Come Home,” “Loss of
the Lady Elgin,” and ,among two or
three hundred others “My Grandfa—
father’s Clock,” which brought him a
handsome return.
“My Old Kentucky Home” is said to
have been suggested to Stephen 0.
Foster on hearing an old negro speak
with love and longing of his home in
Kentucky. Several of Mr. Foster’s
best songs were composed on pieces of
brown wrapping paper in the back
room of a little grocery store in New.
York—Lady’s Home Journal.
The Festive Peanut.
Everyone eats peanuts and scarcely
anyone knows anything about them.
The peanut crop is one of the most
profitable of the south. The yearly
production of peanuts in this country
is about 4,000,000 bushels of twenty-
two pounds each, the bulk of the crop
being produced in Virginia, Georgia,
Tennessee and North Carolina. These
4,0003% bushels constitute but a Small
D1'Ol‘,l“l‘lll3!l of the peanut crop of the
worm. as file exportation from Africa
and indie. to Europe in 1892 amounted
to nearly 400.000.000 pounds, half of
'Which went to Marsellcs to be made
into oil.
Peanut oil is used for lubricatin
and for soup, and is a good substitute
for olive oil, lard, cottolene and butter.
The residue from oil making, known
as “peanut cake” in Europe, is highly
valued as a cattle fodder and is also
ground into fine flour and used as hu-
man food.
Never Forgot His Prayers." _
Mr. D. L. Moody, the evangelist, told
a story in Philadelphia the other day
about his life. before his conversion
when a boy of seventeen. He said_
that while he was a pretty bad boy in.
his unregenerate days, deep in the fol-
lies and errors of the world, he n°ever
broke so far away from his early re-
ligious training as to forget to say his
prayers every night. “I used to sleep
with my brother,” he said. “and , it“
either one of us happened to jump into
bed Without first getting on his knees,
the other would swear at- him vigor-
ously, and kick him out on the floor."
