Hood, and her mother, at 314
Quesn avenue, this city, commit tied
suicide last night by throwing her
self into the roaring refuse furnace
of the Baty Shingle comp,ny
at Anacortes.
Both her parents are prostrat-d.
Miss Hood left here four weeks ago

About $50 o'clock last night the

Arriving at the mouth of the fur
mace she paused for a moment snd
then with wild shrek leaped for
ward. The watchman at once sum-
moned Mr.. Baty and together thrv
ran back to the mill. AS they went
the shrieks of the girl rent the air.
They climbed the ladder, Mis-
Hood had gone up to reach the cen
verter and hurried to the opening.
Locking down they could plainly
see the writhing form of the girl as
she madly waved her arms and
cried out in her agony.
For ten minutes these shrieks
kept up until finally the flames rem
dered her unconscious. The watch
man and Baty secured hooks and
attempted to drag the woman out
but her struggling prevented this.
The watchman after working fe W
minutes tainted at the sight ard
was forced to abandon the task.

Manila, Aug. 12-American sur
geons, connected with the board of
health of Manila declare that they
have discovered positive cure for
leprosy. Of 25 cases treated, all
have improved, six cases being alb
solutely cured. Several patients,
portions of whose bodies were gone,
have recovered.
All of the cases have been under
observation for at least six months,
and it is obsolu1ely impossible to
discover a trace of the germs of the
disease In the blood of the patients.
The method used is system of x
rays.
The. surgeons do not desire their
names to be mentioned at present.
They will not ask for the rewards
which have been offered by various
governments for a cure for leprosy.

Battle Greek, Mich, Aug. 10
DR.. William R. Harper has decid-
ed to relinquish the duties of Pres
ident of the University of Chicago.
He is now in Cleveland consulting
with John D. Rockefeller regarding
the affairs of the great institution.
AS a prelude to retirement, DR.. Har-
per has announced officially that
be has abandoned his CLASSES in the
theological school OF the university.
DR.. kellogg, the noted Battle
Creek SPECIALIST, and close friend
of the university president, after a
consultation advised Dr.. Harper to
lay down his duties as president
and devote all of his time and en-
ergy to battling with the cancer
that threatens his life. The con-
sultation is said to have revealed
that instead of diminishing, the
cancer has grown in size, aud the
general vitality of the educator is
much impaired.
1t is also reported that Harper
and Rockefeller. are formulating g
plans for the further endowment of
Chicago University by the latter
covering an outlay of $4,000. 900.
Mr.. Rockefeller desires to make the
institution the greatest seat of learn
ing in the world. 1t is believed
that the announcement of the en-
dowment will shortly be made to
be followed by the work of enlarge

Kalispel, Mont, Aug. 11.-Mrs.
A. M. Burt of jamestown, N. D., a
member of a party from the Big
Fork, Mont, biological school, had a
narrow escape from death while as
cending Sperry glacier, above Lake
Mcdonald, In the Clearwater coun-
try. Mrs. Burt had just ceased
commenting on the danger of step
ping into a blind crevasse in the
state of unpreparedness In which
the party was, when she disappear
ed from sight. The crevasse had
been undermined by the intense
heat of the previous month, and
had given away beneath the feet of
the unfortunate woman, who gave
a despairing as she disappeared.
The men of the party cautiously
approached the crevasse, which was
uncovered about five feet wide and
nearly straight fall of more than
80 feet, but no sight of Mrs. Burt
was to be had. Listening closely
call for help was heard.
A courier was sent three miles
for ropes, by means of which, with
short leather belts, suspenders and
silk scaIfs, the woman was finally
rescued, after an effort of more than
two hours. The shock was go great
that nervous prostration is feared.
Mrs. Burt said she was bounced
from side to side of the crevasse in
her descent, but miraculously lodg-
ed in pocket in the side of the
wall, otherwise she would have
been precipitated to unknown
depths, and psrished.

BRIEF INAUGURAL ADDRESSES
BY ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS

see. Modern life is both complex and in
tense. and the tremendous changes
wrought by the extraordinary industrial
development of the last half century are
felt in every fiber of our social and po-
litical being.
Never before have men tried so vast
and formidable an experiment as that Of
administering the affairs of a continent
under the forms Of a democratic republic.
The conditions which have told for our
marvellous material wellbelng, which have
developed to very high degree or en-
ergy, self-reliance and Individual lnitia-
tive, have also brought the care and anx-
iety lnseparabIe from the accumulation Of
great wealth In Industrial centers.
Upon the success of our experiment
mue', depends; not only as regards our
own welfare. but az regards the welfare
Of mankind. If we fall, the cause of free
ef.government throughout tho world
will rock to Its foundations; and there
fore our responsibility Is heavy, to our
selves, to the world as 1t Is today and to
the generations yet unborn. ...
There is no good reason why we should
fear the future, but there is every reason
why we should face it seriously, neither
hiding from ourselves the gravity of the
problems before us nor fearing to ap.
proach these problems with the unbend.
i ing, unf1inching purpose to solve then
Alright.
Yet, after all, tho the problems are new
tho the tasks set before US differ from the
tasks set before our fathers who founded
and preserved this republic, the spirit IL
which these tasks must be undertaken
and these problems faced, if our duty i:
| to be well done. remains essentially IN
! changed. We know that self-governmen
is difficult We know that no people need
such high traits of character as that PEG
pie which seeks to govern it's affairs arigh
| thru the freely expressed will of the free
men who compose it.
! But we have faith that we shall no
! prove false to the memories Of the mel
Of the mighty past. They did their work
they left us the splendid heritage we nov
| enjoy We in our turn have an assured con
fldence that we shall be able to leave thi
| heritage unwasted and enlarged to GU
children and our children's children. It
do SO we must show, not merely In grea
crisis, but in the everyday affairs of life
the qualities Of practical intelligence, Q
courage, of hardihood and endurance an6
above all, the power Of devotion to loft
ideal, which made great the men VIII
founded this republic in the days of Wash
ington, which made great the men VIII
preserved this republic in the days c
