GENERAL sIcKLEs' POSITION.
Suggestion That He Has Criticised
the President UnvnrrnntcJ.

Suggestion Tint He Has Criticised
the President Unwnrranted.
Our attention has been called to an
item that appeared in the issue Of this
paper Of October S last purporting to
have been copied from the Chicago Tri-
bune.' in which General Sickles is re-
ferred to as having disturbed the eauipose
of MIR. Mckinley while he was living. and
OF having opened his batteries upon Pres
ldent Roosevelt in connection with the
matter of Commissioner Evans.
While the present management of this
paper is not responsible for the article in
question, we. nevertheless, feel that ii is
due to General Sickles TO state that we
are Informed that the Chicago Tribune"
disowns the article. and that General
Sickles asserts that the suggestion that
he has in any wise attacked President
Roosevelt is unwarranted
We regret that this paper should have
been apparently misled into the publica-
tion of the article in question.

SUICIDE TO
REPAY LOAN.
Troy WOm2n'S Nerve Failed
Her at the Last.
STORY OF G2UESONE AGREEMENT.
Declares She Arranged With Loan
Agent t. Kill Herself So He
Might Collect Insurance on Her
Iife-Not Able to Keep Her Part
of Bargain and Told Company.

TROY, y. Y. Dec. 21.-Lack OF nerve
and the discovery that she was being de-
ceived led Sarah Johnson. a resident OF
this city. to make disclosures that re
vealed a plot TO defraud an insurance
company by suicide.
The woman was recently in poverty.
and sought aid from loan broker, who
advanced her small sum of money, TAX
ing chattel mortgage upon her house
hold effects She was unable TO pay the
interest and called at the Office OF the
broker.
Payment was demanded. whereupon she
broke down, declaring that her poverty
had rendered her desperate and she
wished she were dead. adding that she
had serious thoughts of committing sui
eide.
Proposed n Policy.
According to the story told by the
woman to Jones 6 Russell. attorneys
whom she subsequently visited. the loan
agent grasped the suggestion and pro-
posed that she take d policy on her life
before doing such an~act, saying at the
same time that she might insure for 81 600
and by so doing repay him for his in
dehtedness by transferring the policy to
him.
She assented and he advanced her more
money and obtained a policy on her life
in the New York Life Insurance Company.
She failed to carry out her part OF the
agreement and declared she was told that
unless something was done by November
II the policy would expire.y
That date passed and the woman called
on the agent of the insurance company
and told him Of her inability TO pay fur
ther upon the policy.
Woman Tells of Bargnin.
She was told that the matter had been
attended to and that the policy was still
in force. and that was for 80, 900 instead
of s1.oO0. She thereuponstelated all the
facts connected with the case.
The agent at once telegraphed the home
office in New York. with the result that
representatives were sent to this city at
once to investigate. Jones & Russell,
the senior member OF which firm is
police justice. made a demand for the
possession of the policy.
The home office OF the New York sent
an attorney. John c. Buckley, of Albany.
formerly OF the State Department of n
surance. to this city yesterday. After max
ing an investigation, they had a long con-
ference with the Commissioner OF Public
Safety. Mr.. Coyle, at which the loan
agent was present.
. To Avoid Publicity
1t was decided 10 settle the matter so
as to avoid publicity, and the policy was
given to the representatives of the COM
pany and annulled. The woman received
cash Eratuity.

company will prosecute the matter any

Coed Health fer Children.

The ever~lm portant problem
in regard to health is almost
solved for the coming generat-
ION, when we consider the vari~
Gus theories expounded in this
regard. If they count for any
thing, we surely will have
health and strength in a goodIy
measure.
That physically healthy
child is happy is a true saying,
also that a weak and delicate
child is apt to be irritable and
disagreeable. The latter is an
abnormal condition and in look
ing for the causes thereof, we
find that the food OF the child is
not always the proper kind.
This question is of vital imports
ance in the development OF the
child. Good nutritious food,
well prepared, is as essential to
the school child, and demands as
much care on the part of the
mother, as does that OF the tiny
infant.
The small school child is apt
to hurry through its meals, SO as
to have more time to play. This
is very harmful. The food
should always be we'll 1nastica-
ted before it is swallowed, as it
needs a certain amount of saliva
to fit it for the stomach. Another
thing for mothers to guard
against is the continuous eating
between meals, as this gives the
stomach no rest at all. If the
time between meals is longer
than from four to FIVE hours, it
is a good plan to have several
kinds of fruit at hand and give
it to the children.-The Pilgrim.
