Trading in wheat was on a very large

ket advanced to the top price on the pres
ent crop. little disposition was manifest

export business of the last two days and
the continued small receipts caused a good
demand at the start. Opening prices were

HANGED HIMSELF.
Wanted to Experience the sensatfon,
But Did Not Mean That II Should
End In Death.

mot an uncommon thing perhaps, for LAOS
of inquisitive bent to try all sorts Of
queer experiments in order to find out re
suits for themselves, but few go to the
extent Of hanging themselves. as young
student in Latymer School did the other
day.
The sad part was that the experiment
was too complete success, for the lad
was found dead In a bathroom by his
father During his fourteen years Of life
Sidney Cumming earned the reputation OF
venturing into the most risky expert
ments.
Bright and cheerful and very apt pupil
at school. he was unable to content him
self with the explanations Of phenomena
found in text and other books. On one
occasion, he jumped from a high tree, US
ing an old umbrella as a parachute At
another time he nearly blew himself to
pieces with gunpowder while investigating
the force Of explosives.
The other evening he decided he would
attempt to realize the sensation Of hang
ing, cutting himself down before he be-
came unconscious. He went into a bath
yo,m of his fathers house and locked the
door. After a time. his father became
anxious and burst open the door, to find
piece Of cord from a nail at the top of the
door The knife with which he intended
to cut himself down was found open in
his pocket.
