A False Diagnosis.

Is Grippe is confounded by many persons
with severe attack of catarrh, which in Ecme

yyduals suffer severely with pain about the

throat and stoppage of the nasal passages, and
IN fact are incapacitsted for work of any
Kind for days at time. These are catarrhal
sufferers. Ely's Cream Balm has been used
with the best results in such cases. The

SUICIDE AT NIAGARA.

A Philadelphia Grand Army man,
James Hodges. perpetrated ghastly
practical joke by swinging from the
Goat Island bridge into the rapids
above Niagara Falls, and committing
suicide Monday evening, as stated in
yesterdays GAZETTE. He was clad in
his Grand Army uniform, and fooled
Reservation Policeman Jacob Anthony,
by taking the fatal plunge st two
minutes before o'clock, after q strik-
ingly cunning evasion of official inter-
ruption in the suicidal act.
Hodges arrived at the falls on Fri
day, and, as far as can be learned, he
did not register at any hotel. He was
frequently seen at the Imperial, how
ever, and his actions were 80 peculiar
as to excite the attention of all the
guests. he behaved SO peculiarly, in
fact, that the clerks threatened to put
him out. He was evidently insane.
He was seen in the vicinity of the
falls about o'clock Monday afternoon,
and hackman who had noticed him
about the corridors of the hotel sug-
gested to the reservation policeman that
it would be well to watch him. The
policeman is brusque, good-natured
fellow, and as soon as he received this
warming he walked up to the old man,
aud said in half joking way:
''Well, I believe you contemplate
committing suicide"
That's joke" responded the old
soldier with a laugh. "Why, I have no
more intention of committing suicide
than you have"
"By the way,n he added, would you
mind holding my cane?n
Anthony did so, and the next moment
Hodges was dangling over the railing.
The policeman grabbed and pulled
him back, and as he did so the old fell
low turned and said, with % laugh !:
That's the time the joke was on you.
thought I could fool you"
He then told the policeman that he
had been member of the Fourth Bat
talon, and that he had come to the
falls from his home in Philadelphia to
see the sights. He was apparently
perfectly rational.
And, as there was no further excuse
for OBTAINING him, Anthony turned to
walk across the bridge. Before he had
reached the other end, however, the
old man swung himself over the rail-
ing and was carried away in the rapids.
Unlike the bodies of other suicides
from this point, Hodgess body YVES
rolled over and over along several
lodges in its passage toward the brink
Of the American Fall, until it reached
what is known as Avery's rock, mid
way between Prospect Park and Chap
in Island, to all appearances drowned.
Hodges's leap to death was seen by q
few people, who watched his body and
saw no movement in it after it reached
the rock.
When Hodges was first seen about
the bridge and was solicited by hack
man to ride, he declined, and said the
rapids would be his bed tonight. To
others he also told his intention to
commit suicide.
He was short man with gray hair
and heavy gray beard. His body has
not been recovered. Nothing has yet
been found that reveals any clue to his
exact address.
