FILM OF SUICIDE
VIENNA MAN’S OFFER FAMILY IN DESPERATE STRAITS Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. VIENNA, August 16. (Received August 17, at 10 a.m.) Many middle-class families arc at present, in desperate straits to make ends meet. One man, who has reached the end of his tether, offers to allow a complete film to be taken of his own suicide if the film company will pay sufficient to keep his widow and family from starvation. He says that he has constructed with rifle cartridges and dynamite an infernal machine which will certainly blow him to pieces, making a sensational denouement well worth the price asked.—HJnited Service.
