C0lWell'S Attempt at Suicide
Was a Failure.
IS MUCH BETTER TODAY
But Declines to Say Why He Was
Bent on Self Destruction
At St. Paul's Hospital.

William Colwel1. who attempted to kill
himself last night in his room in the
Williams house by shooting, is at the
emergency hospital and the attending
physicians are of the opinion that he will
recover. The weapon used, according 10
ColWelFs story, was a. 3S-calible revolver.
The bullet entered the left lung in the
vicinity of the heart. The gun used was
a good one, the bullet being driyen
through Colwelrs body. coming out be-
low the LETT shoulder blade. The wound
ed mans condition was very much i'm
proved this afternoon, but he declines to
give any reason for his rash attempt
ColWell is a plumber, who has been
in the employ Of A. J. Walker a short
time. About a week ago he engaged a
room on the third floor Of the Williams
house. Last night a fellow roomer be-
came alarmed at the sounds he heard in
Colwelrs room, and forced the door.
There he oun Colwell, pale and faint
from the loss of blood, but busily en-
gagged in throwing the burning bed
clothing out of the window. When he
had succeeded in e%xtinguishing the fire
he went into the hallway to get a drink
Of water, and then returned to his room
and laid down on the bed springs. BY
this time a number of the inmates of
the house were in Colwell's room. To
these people the wounded man confessed
that he had shot himself. "A policeman
was notified and a physician sent for.
A search of the premises was made but
the revolver could not be found.
A.. J. Walker, Colwell's employer, was
sent for. Colwell told him the shot was
fired accidentally. He said he was un-
married, and his home, until about a
year ago, was in Boston. Colwell was
removed to the st. Paul hospital.
Mr.. Walker states hat Colwell has been
in his employ about four weeks and was
apparently a steady and reliable young
man, always willing to work. The pro-
prietress of the Williams house states
that Colwell had been roolning in the
place only since Saturday night. People
who know him say he has been drinking
heavily of late, but no one but Colwell
knows why he attempted to kill himself.
and he declines to tell.

MODJESKA'S SUPPORTING co.

1t is claimed that the company SUM-
porting Madame Modjeska this season
has been selected With rare Judgment.
which reflects much credit on Mr.. John
c. Fisher, who has so ably managed the
enterprise both this and last season. To
organize a company for one particular
play is not so difficult a matter, for with
an ordinary ability to understand the
characters of men and women, actors
can be selected who by temperament and
manner may fit the parts they are called
upon to play. But in the case of a varied
repertoire such as that of Madame Mod
jeska, which includes marie Antoinette."
"Macheth," Much Ado About Nothing"
and MARY Stuart" one actor has to play
many parts, and then it is a case of in
telligence rather than temperament
Among the more important people who
will be seen with Modjeska, Mr.. John e.
kellerd comes first. of course. He is
featured on the company's announce
ments and shares the leading roles with
her. Mr.. kellerd will lie seen here as
Louis XVI on Thursday night in the play
of Marie Antoinette;;' as Benedick, in
much Ado at the matinee, and in
Mary stuart announced for Saturday
evening, he will appear as Leicester.

Well" said Gallifet. perhaps not. but
l think we shall. Follow me!"
Galllfet proceeded to ride at a slow trot
directly toward the insurgents.
Presently the communist commanier
q mar IN a white beard, evidently not a
soldier by occupation, stepped out and
called:
"What do you want?"
Ihen Gallifet proceeded to make a
speech in a somewhat grandilouuent
manner. He pretended that he had come
from President Theirs.
"Frenchmen.' he said, "~listen! Shall
1T be peace or war between Paris and
Versailles? Shall we not have peace?
Lay down your arms and all will be we'll.
II you persist, it is wal to the death!
Frenchmen, choose!"
A great clamor rose anon the insur-
gents. The communist ommander spoke
up.
Go back to President Theirs" he
shouted, land tell them it is war;
Il go!" said Gallifet.
He wanted nothing better. as his "mis-
SION was a pure accident, and he was
as good as a prisoner. He and the lieu
horse struck into a gallop.
Hold on called Gallifet. Don't let
them think we are in a hurry-they'll
know what's up"
So the two officers walked their horses
out of range of the insurgent rifles, and
rejoined their command.
Two months later the gray-bearded
communist commander fell into the
hands of Gallifet. who gave him his lib
erty in agreeable remembrance of the in

WORRY.
What This Foolish, EnervatinG Hab-
1T Does For Mankind.

What This Foolish. EnervatinG Hab-
1T Does For Mankind.
Worry is forethought gone to seed
Worry is discounting possible future
SORROWS SO that the individual may
have present misery. Worry is the ia
ther of insomnia. Worry is the traitor
in our camp that dampens our powder,
weakens our aim. Under the guise of
helping us to bear the present and to
be ready for the future worry multi
plies enemies within our mind to sap
our strength.
Worry is the dominance of the mind
by single, vague, restless, unsatisfied,
fearing and fearful idea. The mental
energy and force that should be concen-
trated on the successive duties of the
day is constantly and surreptitiously
distracted and absorbed by this one fix
ed idea. The full, rich strength of the
unconscious working of the mind, that
which produces our best success, that
represents our finest activity, is tapped,
led away and wasted on worry.
Worry must not be confused with
anxiety. though both words agree in
meaning originally, Choking" or q
''strangling, referring, of course, to
the throttling effect upon individual
activity. Anxiety faces large issues of
life seriously. calmly. with dignity.
Anxiety always suggests hopeful posi-
bility; it is active in being ready and
devising measures to meet the outcome.
Worry is not one large individual sor-
row; it is colony of petty, vague. in
significant, restless, imps of fear, that
become important only from their COM
bination. their constancy, their itera-
tion. William George Jordan in The
Saturday Evening Post.
