Cow
"TIME brings all things"
In Geneva, N. Y., Lady Orange, famed campus cow at Hobart College, walked round and round a stake to which she was tethered, strangled herself.
Herring
In Detroit, one Edward Herring, 50, walked near the river to catch a breath of fresh air. He hesitated for a moment in front of the Superior Smoked Fish Co. Down plunged a keg of pickled herrings from a third-story window sill, felled Mr. Herring.
Shine
In Pittsburgh, one Joseph Shine slept beside Ernestine Shine (his wife), dreaming of strange delights. Mrs. Shine began to toss fretfully. Into his sleep-swollen brain filtered the Shine baby's sobs, "WAAAH! Ugh, ugh, ugh." Cursing, Mr. Shine arose from his slumbers, stumbled to the crib, picked up the child (aged 1), handled it so roughly he broke its leg.
Garfunkel
In Manhattan, Isidor Garfunkel cut off his daughter Sophie from his $10,000 estate with $50, because, his will stated, she had once refused to close a window for him; had once refused to make coffee for him.
Hennesey, Walsh
In Waterbury, Conn., one William Hennesey heard that his friend, Christopher Walsh, was belittling him. Mr. Hennesey took his derringer, called on Mr. Walsh, fired, grazing Mr. Walsh's abdomen; fired again, hit himself in the hat. Doctors quieted Mr. Walsh, but when released from the hospital he called on Mr. Hennesey, thumped him, bumped, banged, kicked, bruised him.
Nowanick
Near Wilkes Barre, Pa., one Joseph Nowanick, coal miner, angled for fish in Brohead Creek, fished up a diamond-ring. He learned it had been lost by a Mrs. Joseph Brown of Manhattan and was worth $1,700. Honest, Miner Nowanick sent the ring home. Grateful, Mrs. Brown offered a reward. Proud, Miner Nowanick refused. Insistent, Mrs. Brown invited him to Manhattan to spend Memorial Day. Sociable, Miner Nowanick accepted.
Bailers
Near Kirkwood, N. 3., three small boys bailed from a creek 200 one dollar bills in a bale.
