MYSTERIOUS SUICIDE CASE.
Young Man Takes His Life With
out Apparent Cause.

New York. April Arthur Hunt, Of
Worcester. Mass, committed suicide
last evening at the home Of f. w.
Berry. of Passaic, n ]. The circum-
stances surrounding his death and the
cheerful demeauor Of the young man
before he committed the act of self
destruction puzzle all who knew him.
The police and the coroner are un-
able 10 find the cause which led Hunt
ia fake his life. He left no message
and as far is known, there Is no cleW
as TO the motives which influenced
him.
II seemed as though the man had
everything ia make him c1ntented. lie
was only twcnty-thTee years old. yet
he had a position with a Boston house
which men twice his age would nave
been glad to have held He was popu-
lar in Worcester. where he lived, and
Was received in the best society. he
went TO Passaic frequently TO visit T..
". Berry. who lived in Irving Place.
He and Mr.. Berry had been friends for
years.
Mr. H.ut was in Passaic last Tues
day night to attend the dedication OF
the new Unitarian church. The Rev.
Or Wicks. formerly the pastor of the
church. and now having a charge in
Boston. was present. He is the pastor
of the church which Mr.. Hunt at
tended in Boston and knew the young
man we'll Both were guests at the
home of Mr.. Berry.
Young Hunt was we'll known in Pas
sale and had met many of the resi-
dents socially He was asked to be one
Of the usherS at the dedication. 1t was
noticed by several who went to the
ceremony that the young man was in
splendid spirits.
He came to this city yesterday trans
acted some business and returned to
PasSaic.
He dined last evening with the Rev.
Mr. Wicks and Mr.. Berry. He talked
cheerfully and there was no sign that
ANYTHING disturbed his mind. He went
up to his bedroom at $50 o'clock. Five
minutes later those in the house heard
the raport of a revolver. They ran uE
70 Mr.. Hunts room and found him
living dead upon the floor. There was
bullet hole in the side of his head
and his right hand was revolver. He
had evidently died without a struggle
He left no message telling what had
induced him to take his life. As far as
could be learned he had no financial
troubles and was free from entangle-
ments of any kind.

A Test by Which the True Value of
All Cures Can be Determined.

How many thousands there are today
who would gladly pay almost any reason
able sum to be cured of either one of the
above diseases, but, knowing of so many
different remedies and treatments. are
unable to decide which one to try. 1t does
seem difficult task, yet becomes COM
parativcly easy one if the person afilict-
ed will but use little good judgment and
common sense. In the first place, every
man and woman knows. or should know
that the air passages were made for air
alone, and that nature has 50 construct
ed these passages that moisture OF any
kind cannot enter the bronchial tubes or
lungs. This at once preclude5 all possl-
bility of cure of deep-seated diseases
being effected by treatment requiring the
use OF sprays. douches. atOmiZerS or va
pors. Secondly. all regular physicians ad-
nit that these diseases are purely local.
and must be treated locally. consequent
ly stomach medicines become useless IN
treating diseases of the air passages. The
diseased parts must be reached through

REVOLT AGAINST REED.
Rules of the House Denounced by "a
Republican Member.

A Republican member of the House
yesterday revolted against party dis
cipline dclied Speaker Reed, and de-
nounced the rules. Mr.. CoIson of Ken
lucky was the daring man who thus
proclaimed discomfort with the prevailing
order of things. Speaker Reed was pre-
siding
Mr.. Colson said that but for the rules
and the oppressive power of the Speaker
the House would long ago have adopted
a resolution recognizing the belligerent
rights Of the Cubaus. He said the people
of the country have lost faith in the
President. and have turned to Congress.
They are asking why Congress does not
act. why it has not acted.
They do not understand the power Of
the rules, that the members are thTOt-
tied; have bound themselves hand and
foot. He said a member might be for
given for voting for such rules once,
but he could not hope for pardon If he
repeated the ofIense.
New members he said, are given to
hero worship They come here Impress
ed by the greatness of party leaders
they have heard Of and are beguiled by
these leaders into voting for rules that
give the Speaker ami dozen favorites
absolute control Mr.. Colson severely
scored the Republican leaders for their
failure to report "A permanent code of
rules He said the present rules were
adopted by a tie vote. Immediately Mr..
Dalzell demanded the yeas and nays, and
some of the Republicans, like "A whip

voted against their own convictions at
| the behest of party. But they were as
sured that the rules were only Temporal
ry ard the House would soon be given
an opportunity to vote on permanent

would act promptly and swiftly on the

| Committee had IL throttled- He had
! been told that the Speaker had recently

Capt. Zalinski stated that if there

MEMBERS GALLERY.
New Method Of Issuing Admission
Cards to II.

Cards to II.
some Of the members Of the House found
yesterday. when they attempted to get
ladies of their families into the reserved
galleries that the assistant doorkecper
had set apart some Of the benches for
favorites.
When the House met Mr.. Bailey COM
planned to the Speaker and inquired if he
had given any authority to specially re-
serve seats.
The Speaker replied that he directed a
part of cne bench. in addition to the
seats usually kept for him, To be set
apart.
on motion Of Mr. Dockery. the Com
mittee on Rules reported an amendment
to the rules suspending until further
orders. the privilege of members to is
sue cards TO the galleries. The door
keeper is directed by this new rule to
have special tickets printed and to issue
two daily to each member. These tickets
will be good only for the day of issuance.
They will entitle the holder to admission
to the reserved galleries, with the eN-
ception of the diplomatic and Executive,
for the day only on which the ticket is
dated. The tickets will be taken up by
the doorkeeperS.
The pubic gallPtleS on lne noFtn sue
OF the House will continue to be open
to persons without cards.
All cards ROW out issued by members
are valueless during the enforcement of
this new rule.
The rule was adopted after being
changed so as to provide that the hold
ers of these tickets shall have the privi-
lege of leaving and returning to their
seats at pleasure. Under this plan each
and every ticket issued to a member will
entitle the holder TO a seat in the gal
leries. The number issued will conform
to the number of seats.

A Brave Boy.
New York. April Lieut.. Comdr. Ma
rix, Judge advocate of the Maine Court
of Inquiry, acted as counsel for Uncle
Sam before Justice Thomas in the United
States court in Brooklyn yesterday. lie
represented directly Capt. Mervin Miller
of the receiving ship Vermont.
Thomas j. Jennings had brought ma
beas copus proceedings to obtain possess
sion of his seventeen-year-old son wal
ter, who, swearing he was more than
twenty-ene years old, had enlisted In the
Navy.
1t could not be learned from what town
Jennings came, but it is believed to be
somewhere in Pennsylvania. Walter had
been saying that he would enlist. He dis
appeared from home, and on Monday was
found on the kermont.a full-fledged blue-
jacket.
He had marked the figures '21'' on pieces
of paper and had put them in his shoes
and then sworn that he was over Il.
He is unusually large and strong and
he had no difficulty in the examination.
His father obtained a lawyer, Saunders
Shanks, and he got a writ. The case
was set for a private hearing yesterday,
as the youth was To have been sent
South today.
The lieutenant commander argued that
as the volunteer had enlisted and had been
assigned i'm good faith by Captain Miller

AT THE BOTTOMS OF RIVERS.
Topography of the Land Under Wa
ter Abouf New York.


New York. April Not one person,
probably, in 1000 in New York city. and
very few of those who daily ride back
and forth on the ferries, have any idea
of the topography of the bottom of the
rivers and bay. Now, suppose that the
waters OF the East and North Rivers
were dried UP. and the waters of the
upper bay should recede to Sandy Hook,
what sort of picture do you suppose
would be presented? Well. if you stood
on the Battery and looked down into
the bed of the upper bay you would see
a great, deep basin, with sort of can
yon running through 1t from the mouth
of the North River TO the Narrows This
canyon would form the bed of the ship
channel.
You would have to 20 down an almost
precipi Gus incline from the Battery to
reach the bottom Of the bay off the Barge
Office. and if you looked toward Gov
ernor's Island il would resemble huge
irregular castle with "A stOne parapet and
rockbo sides. North of Governor :
Island YOU would see the scanned remains
of what was once Diamond Reef. and,
walking up the East River bed, the
New York and Brooklyn shores would
appear anywhere from twenty N-INc 10
thirty fee above you, with the piers
perchcd high on their wooden spiles.
Incidentally you would view some
grewsome secrets. probably. which the
! waters had for years concealed and
north of the Brooklyn Bridge. near
BlackweI's Island, you would come upon
! reefs that man has sought for years TO
/ destroy. 4 walk through the main ship
| channel to Sandy Hook would also be
| interesting and the bed Of the North
| River would reveal that systematic work
! has been done TO so control the depth
| OF the waters in it that the commerce OF
| the world can now proceed for many
| miles up the great ship thoroughfare.
