ONE MORE TIRED OF LIFE.
Bridgeport Tailor Commits Suicide
Caused by HI Health.

A Bridgeport Tailor Commits Suicide
Caused by HI Health.
BRIDGEPORT, July 23.--Much excitement
was created in this city early this morning
over the suicide of John Mattern, a German
tailor, who was employed in the establish
msnt of John ]. Golden on the second floor
of No. Z Bank street. The discovery was
made by Mr.. Golden himself when he went
to open up his place of business for the
morning. He was shocked to find Mattern
hanging by the neck from closet door. The
man was quite dead at the time. He was
about sixty years of age and we'll known
among the German residents of the city. His
health had been poor for some time past,
and for this reason had probably become
tired Of life. He used half inch MANILA
rope with a carefully prepared slip moose
Mr.. Golden at once gave the alarm, and soon
Medical Examiner Downes was on the spot
and the body taken down for examination.
Death was due to strangulation, and as the
body was still warm DR.. Downes was OF the
opinion that Mattern hanged himself about
Daylight. The deceased left no family save
two grown-up children.

A DOGS WARNING.

A Pet Dog Barks and Awakens Miss
French OF Woodbridge In Time to
Save she Family from q Burning
House-A Serious Loss.
The inmates of the house of Mr.. W. 81.
French Of Woodbridge, which was destroyed
by fire Monday evening, have dog to thank
for their lives, perhaps. The fire started in
the carriage barn or woodhouse, which are
all connected with the farm house by an ell,
and by the time that the occupants were
awakened to their danger, which was about
o'clock in the morning, all the buildings
seemed to be envelopsd in flames, and there
was need Of hurry to escape. !. The discovery
was first made by Mr.. French's daughter, q
young lady about eighteen. year of sge, who
was awakened by the vigorous barking and
whines Of the. pet dog Of q lady who was
visiting them for the time, ,. Miss French
perceived in moment from the actions
Of the animal that something was
wrong, and then hearing the cracking of
the flames knew what it all meant and that
prompt action was necessary. It was but
| the work of q moment for her to give the
alarm to the rest of the household, consist
| ing besides herself of Mr.. and Mrs. French,
| lady and her little child visiting them and
| hired man. Inc startling news was not
given any too soon, but fortunately no lives
were lost. A little later Jerome Downes, jr.,
a milkman from Bethany, came along with
his load for his New Haven customers, and
seeing the blaze hastened to give valuable
assistance in removing what was possible
| of the furniture. Help also came later from
the neighboring houses, but by this time the
buildings were pretty we'll destroyed. The
property, consisting of about ninety acres of

New Haven Water company. It had been
sold to them by Mr.. French some two OF
three years ago and he has since rented it of
| the company. The buildings were totally
destroyed and partially covered by insurance.
Mr.. French's loss is over 81, 200, consisting
OF carriages and harnesses, furniture, etc.
Among other things that he had destroyed
was thirty cords of wood which was already
cut and split for market. Mr.. French and
his family are at present located in house
about mile from the old place, but he has
not decided what to do for the future as yet.

Christian Science Proves TO Have Been
Backed Up By Another Induenee.
From the Boston Transcript
There was funny incident in one OF our
intellectual suburbs, which did not 60 far to
help the Christian science doctrine. The
occurrence was in this wise: A promfnent
expositress of the doctrine OF Christian
science was invited by q number Of ladies' In
one of the suburbs who had been inter-
ested in these doctrines and wanted an au-
thoritative exposition of them, to come out
and talk on the subject. She came and De-
gan her address In . small lecture room.
Ladies' she said, 81 wish to impress up
on your minds the fact that nothing exists %
1t appears to us to exist. All matter u I'M
real, It is delusion, authorization. Moth
ing is MATERIAL is mind. And this truth
does not apply merely to what Is called dis
ease and its phenomena. The more ordinary
things about Us are as much hallucination as
so-called disease. will give an illustration.
yesterday was engaged in housework,
and had occasion to cut up and prepare
number of ounces. Now, you all know how
terribly ounces are supposed to stain and
blscken the hands. For days and days I'M
der the old thought, have worn upon my
fingers the dark stains made by pairing quin-
ces. Well, as worked over these ounces
yesterday, pairing, quartering, handling them.
l tAouSue 11oW 4OoAihu, INV, W bupRooo sAs'
these unreal. substantial, nonresisting things
should stain my hands, and I resolved that
they should not stain my hands, and that ]
would not look at my fingers until my work
was over and then would find them perfectly
clean. Well, ladies, not only did I pare and
quarter these ounces, but after had COM
pleted them had occasion to cut and prepare
a number Of tomatoes, and you know how
dreadful they are supposed to be. pared
my tomatoes, cut them and sliced them
handling them freely all the time, when wal
all done with both rinsed my hands and
looked at them and they were perfectly clear
and white, with not a stain upon them"
When the "scientist" had reached thestag(
of the tomatoes the women of the audiences
began to look wonderingly and significantly
at one another. and when she announced thu
miracle handkerchiefs were stuffed into
mouths all over the little hall, and chests
were heaving with suppressed laughter. Be
ing in considerable part housewives, tht
ladies knew that in the nature of mere mater
ial things the juice of tomatoes will wast
away and utterly remove the stain of any
other fruit whatsoever, and that after cutting
up tomatoes not vertigo of ounce stair
could have been left on the woman's hands

BIG FIND OF COPPER.

The Bristol Miners Strike Rich Vein
and are Elated.
BRISTOL, July 23.-The superintendent of
the Bristol Copper and Silver Mining com-
pany feels greatly encouraged by recent finds
in the drift or CROSS cut which they are driv-
ing from the level of the 370-foot shaft. Last
Friday the miners struck what appears to be
the main vein Of copper ore for which they
have been looking. So far the cross cut
since the find of Friday has been pushed
through copper bearing rock of high grade.
What the width of the vein is remains to be
seen, as does the depth below the 370-foot
level. The height above them they know to
be $40 feet, as they are sinking a shaft from
the top over where the vein was found and
are taking out good ore. Several smaller
veins of ore have been found in pushing the
cross cut; but they were evidently branches
Of the main vein which they have now found.
Machinery for crushing the ore will be put in
as soon as practicable. The treasurer of the
company and one of the stockholders was
here yesterday, and they assured Mr.. Hubbell
that there would be no delay now in pushing
work at the mine.
