Mystery in the Suicide of Mrs. Anna Knops, Who Took Acid, Then 23.— ELIZABETH, N. J., May There is considerable mystery in the euicide of Mrs. Anna Knops, who shot and Killed herself after swal- lowing acetic acid at her home, No, 625 Fulton street, this city, William Knops, the woman's hus- band, reported the case to the police to-day. He sald that he had attended the funeral yesterday of Frederick | Linder, of Bayonne, who was shot and killed last Monday night by William Kessler, who also wounded ‘Thomas Kaigler at the pame time, When he returned from the ceme- tery he found his wife dead in bed. She had frst taken the acid and then blown out her brains, ‘A letter that she had written lay on her dressing-tuble and Knops said that in it she declared she was tired of, life.

With Van out of Jthe game an inmate of a ‘hospital tt did not seem lke the oid team. It has come to such a pass that a New York team without a Van Haltren is jlike a whiskey cocktail without the whiskey. The unfortunate accident of yesterday | which deprived the Giants of their best player necessitated Manager Fogel mak- jing another change in his batting lst. The way he did it 4s best shown in the above order. | Roy Clark, the young ex-collegian, |owing to his being a left-handed batter, 1s placed’ first, The boy always tries hard enough, but his effort to fill the | position left vacant by old Van is sure |to make him appear worse in playing | than he really is. Van Out for Two Months. As to Van, he js resting very quietly | the hospital, and may be able to play in his old position in about two months, Hig mates are doing all they van to comfort him, Not a minute of the day, except during the game, is he left alone, President Freedman telegraphed Man- | ager Fogel to spare no expense in giving | the old fellow wmfort. As to the game to-day, the chances of the Glanis winning appeared as gloomy as the clouds which hovered above this elty all this morning. The field was quite soggy, owing to the rain of last night, and that was another handicap. Doyle and his men had to tccept. But hope does not die in these 's from New York. They are quitters tn no sense of the word. They went into the geme to win, and not to lose, and were prepared to put forth their best efforts, bos to 20 Against the Giants. speculative crowd in the stands figured them as having little or no chance. So It was that odds of 100 to 0 were freely offered, and few were the (akers of the short end. Finding bet- ting on the result rather slow, the Pitts- burg Club's adherents made wagers on fouls, strikes, balls and that the man at the bat would or would not get to first base, That's how bad the betting fever 1s here. As far as the pitching department of the Glants was concerned thtre was no need of worry on that score. In the box was Frank Sparks. He is In good shape Just now and felt that if his mates would work well behind him and If they would do a little batting he would carry off the honors of the day. His practice was of the superior order. But, as has often been rehated, one can never tel! what @ fellow will do 'n a game by watching him warm up. Eddie Doheny, once a Glant, but now one of the stars of the champions’ pitch- tng staff, struck Manager Fred Clarke as being about in the right shape to fool his old mates with his southpaw deliy- ery, BUI until the gong sounded for the beginning of the came, Clarke had not | settied Just who would pitch. As well | aa Doheny, he had Leever, Chestyo und Poole warm up, and when they had fin- ished he was still guessing. All looked good to him.
