Frank O. Coombs, one of the best known engravers in the Attleboros, suffered a serious and painful injury recently while descending a flight of stairs at his home on Park St. In some manner, he lost his balance and fell headlong the entire distance to the floor below, fracturing his left arm and dislocating his shoulder. He will be laid up for a good many weeks, and his detention from business will be keenly regretted by those who depend upon his exceptional skill. His work on souvenir spoons is known throughout the country.

DEATH PUZZLES CORONER

Newark Silversmith Left Note Saying He Feared Insanity


Under peculiar circumstances, Frank Mauser, sixty-three years old, formerly head of the Mauser Silverware Company, of Newark, died suddenly last night in the Frank E. Campbell undertaking establishment, at No. 241 West 23d Street. As he fell unconscious to the floor, a note dropped from his hand, in which the man said he was afraid he was going crazy and asked that several matters be attended to when he died.

Coroner Shrady was unable to state whether or not the man had committed suicide. An autopsy will be performed today.

The superintendent of the establishment saw the man walking up and down in front of the place. Finally, the man started through the door, and then went out again to the sidewalk. The superintendent asked him what he wanted and followed him into the office. The Superintendent took off his coat and the man did the same. A moment later he fell forward unconscious. The superintendent lifted him to a table, and then hurriedly summoned Dr. J. H. Patrick, of No 33 west 23d street, and Dr. W. J. Nardy of No. 227 West 23d street. They worked over the man for more than an hour, but were unable to revive him.

The note which dropped from his hand read: "My nerves are in a terrible condition. I am afraid I'll get crazy."

Geo. W. Shiebler, a former well-known silver manufacturer, who has been conducting a retail business at 7 Maiden Lane, retired from that business Saturday last, and on Monday became associated with the Mauser Mfg. Co., silversmiths, at Fifth Ave. and 31st St., to which concern he disposed of nearly all of his old designs about a year ago. Mr. Shiebler, who will be now identified with the promotion end of the Mauser company, has been connected with the jewelry trade since 1867, and with the silver industry since 1875.

A MASSIVE VASE WITH NOVEL DECORATIVE EFFECTS

The fourth and last of the series of cups awarded as prizes at the 11th National Irrigation Congress, held at Ogden, Utah, Sept. 15-18, 1903, is the Havemeyer Sugar Beet Cup, and embodies a design striking, yet significant of the purpose for which it is intended.

Image

The vase is of massive proportions and the salient designs seen in the decorations are sugar beets, which are distinctly different from the common red beet, in high relief, arranged so that their bodies are above a section of irrigated land through which flow streams of water.

The piece has two handles which are joined to the bowl at the top by tangled beet leaves, executed in relief. The inscription on the back of the trophy reads as follows : “Awarded Mr. A. A. Rhodes, Garland, Utah, for best sugar beets grown under Irrigation, Arid-States Fruit Exhibit of the Eleventh National Irrigation Congress, Sept. 15-18, 1903, Ogden, Utah, presented by H. O. Havemeyer in behalf of the American Sugar Refining Company.”

The trophy, as well as the three others presented as prizes at the Congress, which have already been illustrated and described in these columns, were designed and made by the Mauser Mfg. Co., silversmiths, New York.
