LAST OF TOM LANGDELL.
The Unfortunate Character Dies in the
fOor House.

The Unfortunate Character Dies in the
Poor House.
Death ended the dissipated and
unfortunate career of Thomas Lang
dell yesterday afternoon at the poor
house. where he was taken several
months ago helpless and pitiable ex-
ample OF absolute abandon. Tom, rs
he WAS generally known. was famil-
lar character about the city for many
years. a deformed and depraved
being. his only ambition was fer
day-to-day existence. He burdened
no one. preferring seclusion in some
out-of-the-way place. excepting such
times as he would he employed
at odd chores about the sa-
looms. where his alcoholic cravings
would be partially lessened in COM
pen.ation therefor. Once = citizen
of fair circumstances, by degrees
Tom drifted to the slovenly condi-
ton which terminated his life. Tom
was a native of Scotland and came TO
Rock Island in 1850. On Second
avenue near Fifteenth street. it will
be remembered. there stood for a
long period blacksmith shop.
There Tom and his brother, George.
made comfortable livelihood, the
former as employe and the latter as
proprietor. Eventually they both
cultivated the liquor habit and it
wasn't long before it interfered with
their business affairs. George be-
came physical as well as financial
wreck. Some years thereafter he
died at the poor house where yester-
day witnessed the passing from
earthly existence OF his brother.
Toms Accident.
Some twelve wears ago Tom en-
coun.ered dcplorable accident
which but for miracle would have
resulted in death. In crossing the
railroad tracks in an Iowa town he
was struck by an engine and hurled
in ito the air. alighting on the locomo-
tivc's tender. Thereafter he was do
formed an in cline on the back bending
his head downward. adding depravity
to his appearance in latter years. As 4
cripple he con tinued on the downward
path, even more SO than previously,
his condition probably discourage
ing the anticipaiion-if he had any
OF adopting better course of life.
He finally became an abjcet of
charity, and hung around Ohlweiler's
NOW Gutzweiler's) saloon on Fiji
tenth street and Second avenue,
doing odd jobs as means of sus-
tepance. Several months ago it be-
came necessary on account Of his
weakened condition for the authori-
ties to remove him to the poor farm,
where he remained until death re-
lieved him. Langdell was So years
of age, and has one sister here,
Mrs. q. w. Stocker, 1921 Seventh
avenue, and another in the west.
The remains were inferred at
Chippiannock at o'clock this after
noon.

MEXICO CITY, April 8.-The fall
in silver exchange has had a contin-
ued beneficial effect on Mexico's re-
mittances abroad. The only draw
back to a larger volume of business
has been that the banks will not gem
orally sell exchange to buyers at the
ruling quotations. The volume of
business was larger last week than
that of the week before, and the i'm
mense surplus of money in the big
houses is being cut down. For

budget committee has presented it's
an excess over expenditures of $780,

balance receipts and expenditures
in the face of the great depreciation
of Mexican silver is surprise even
to the most sanguine Secretary
of the Treasury Limantour and the
entire administration are being con-
graduated on all sides at the re-
suit of their efforts to sustain Mex

Jersey Scholar Discusses Double
Rhymes in Homer.

rhymes In Homer.
ST. LOUIS, April w. v. Byars,
formerly a st. Louis newspaper man,
but now of South Orange, N. j.,
has written a communication to the
Post-Dispatch which will interest
scholars and students everywhere
Mr.. Byars claims to have discovered
a method of rescuing the Homeric
melodies that have been lost by the
shifting Of accent. His plan is a nov
city in classical Interpretation, and
Numerically opposed to the meth
DDS pursued in colleges and univer-
sites. He says: ITO get at the
melodies of Horace or any other
classical author, drop all English
ideas of accent, stress each syllable
equally, give every vowel it's dis
tinct sound, and divide the verse so
as to bring out the most rhymes.
1t will then fall into beautifully bal
anced lines, ending in rhymes as ours
do, but with initial and medal
rhymes forward and backward that
our poems do not have. No more
interesting discovery to scholars has
been made since Donnelly's cryptic
gram was ushered in.
