Sundays Heat Causes Suicides,

A dispatch from New Haven, Conn, last
night says: The excessive heat throughout
the state today was probably responsible
for two suicides. Mrs. Louis Barnes of
Bolton shot herself after great suffering
and earlier in the day James Wood of Bris-
tol ended his life by shooting. Both per-
sons had been affected before by the heat.
dispatch from New York says: One
death and eleven cases of prostration have
been reported as the result of the excessive
heat here Sunday. Agnes Emmett, widow
was taken to the hospital with three self
inflicted bullet wounds in her head. Tho
woman said she was craZed by the heat.

sailor on the u. S. S. Hancock, was picked
up on the street, overcome by the heat, and
carried to the hospital in serious condi-

ty-four hours averaged eleven degrees
higher than the average temperature OF
the corresponding date during the last
twenty-five years. At noon the thermom.

said that faith. inspiration for the better

But If wealth and dominion are made a
primary object and are trusted as a source

very few nations have achieved wealth or

Burton had told him something of the

officer at Fredericksburg had rejected him

active sympathy of his selected messenger.

why Burton was so anxious when, at the
