1t has been commented upon as
somewhat strange that in the year Of
massacre in Armenia no man of that
country has risen to the stature of a
hero, gathered around him a band Of
his countrymen and, IL nothing bet
ter, died fighting. There Is much to
account for the submissiveness of the
Arnenjans: and IL their men have
given no conspicuous evidence Of va
lor, the Armenian women have afford
ed ample proof of heroism. On sew.
eral occasions. when resistance was
hopeless and when confronted by the
alternative Of Islam and worse or
death, they have welcomed the latter
by throwing themselves from lofty
rocks or into the rivers. There have
been and there are heroines among

Killed Himself.

Chicago, Ill.,. Dec. 9.-Henry Owen
OConner, one Of the principal wit
nesses for the prosecution in the fam
Gus Cronin murder case. committed
suicide by shooting himself at his home
in this city. OConneT was a friend OF
DR.. Cronin and his evidence in the trial
was confined to remarks he had heard
made in Camp 20 of the Clan-na-Gael
by some of the defendants against DR..
Cronin. O'Conner appeared at the first
trial, but would not testify when sum-
mcned to the rchearing in behalf OF
Dan Coughlin. He was in New York at
the time and would not listen to any
persuasions to make trip to Chicago.
His death recalls the mysteries which
have pursued the persons concerned
with the case. Just before he shot
himself OConner drew up will dis
posing of his property, and called IN
neigq,bors to witness it. This document
was made the basis of farewell letter
to his wife. in which O'Conner said ILL
ness prompted him to do away with
himself.
