Last of Distinguished FamiIy-TIred of
 Life.

Philadelphia. March IA woman who gave her name as Mrs. Chariot te G. Wellington committed suicide last night by inhaling chloroform in fash ionable boarding house at Haddonfield, N. J., near here. The woman left a note to the proprietor of the boarding house in which she said
 T am the last of a distinguished fam fly, left so alone that I am tired of life. Will you kindly see that my remains are decently buried? I enclose money to pay expenses. My clothes give to the poor. Please keep this as quiet as possible"
 With the note was $75. The woman came to the boarding house about Feb ruary 20. She was always apparently in good spirits. She was about fifty years old, refined and plentifully sup piled with money.
 In conversation with other persons in the house she often referred to having lived in Boston and Albany, N Y, and to having boarded in Mount Holly and Medford, N. J.

LAWYER DURANr ATTACKED
STR UCK DOWN IN WATERBURY
 AFTER MIDNIGHT.
to His Home When Set Upon
 by Two Men-Fired Four Shots at Them-Ono Went Through the Hat of One of Ills AssaiIaMts-ShOts Fired at
 Car in Which Manager seweiI Was
Riding.

Waterbury, March 2.-Prosecuting Attorney Durant was attacked by two men at 1915 this morning as he was going to his home. They knocked him
 down with clubs and fists, and as he lay on the ground he fired four shots at
 them as they beat him. One bullet
 went up through the hat of one of the
 men and knocked it off. Attorney
 Durant brought the hat back to the
 police station. The men escaped, with no clue as to their identity. Attorney
 Durant assigns no reason for the as- sault, but it is probable that the men
 are friends or in sympathy with some
 of the perpetrators of violence whom
 the prosecutor has dealt with in con- nection with the trolley strike.
 Some events of Saturday night have come to light which are of the most startling character. AS Manager Sew ell was riding home on the Waterville line after il o'clock on Saturday night the car was fired on by man from the darkness in lonely region on North Sillow street. The shots came presum- ably from a pistol and were four in number At the same time rocks were
 hurled at the car. None of the bullets is known to have struck the car. MT.
 Sewell says that he has received nu- merous threatening letters. -.. Three arrests were made to-day. TWO were for stone throwing and the third for resisting the officer who arrested
 one of the men. One of the men was
 Daniel Cronin. and was captured by
 Agent Farley. He and Sergeant Wales
 were out on the Naugatuck line, follow ing a car into this city in a carriage for
 the purpose of detecting culprits.' AAs
 the car passed Smith & Driggs' plant
 the car was heavily bombarded with stones. MT. Farley leaped into the
 crowd and caught Cranin, bringing him to the station. Cronin was found, when searched. to have on his person a fire
 badge. and it is likely that he will be discharged from the fire department in
 which he is call man. He claimed that
 Farley fired on the crowd. -% The condition of the motorman and conductor who were assaulted by mask
 ed men near Waterville on Thursday is very favorable and neither will die.

comed by Roosevcif.
 London, March 1--Captain Shave Taylor, the secretary of the Dublin Landlord and Tenants Conference, who has just returned from a visit to the United States, describing his visit to the Associated Press correspondent to- night, said:
 President Roosevelt, who is himself half an Irishman. and extremely proud of it, received me most cordially. believe there is nobody in the United States more anxious than he for Ire lands welfare.
 Referring to the Dublin conference, MT. Roosevelt said: I am not speaking now as politician when say. that, in company with the whole civilized world, I heartily welcome the prospect of final set tlement of the Irish land ques- tion'
 Captain Shave Taylor concluded the interview by saying that during his visit to the United States he met Irish men of all shades and degrees of polit- ical opinion, and T have the highest possible authority for making the fol- lowing statement: A final settlement of the land question, by removing the barrier now existing between Ireland and England, will greatly improve the relations between the United States and England, and will also link in clos CT friendship Canada to the British em- Dire"
