WHERE ENDECOTT I FITTED

Endicott was a dufier. There was no shadow of doubt about that.

Swedish Rule In America.

New Sweden was established in 1888 on the bank of the South river. the Delaware, on territory now embraced ill the city of Wilmington, Del. The first settlement was of some fifty pio- neers from Gothenburg in the ship Key Of Calmar and the tender Griffin, un- tier the direction of Peter Minuit. a discharged director of the New Neither tands. For a kettle and some trump cry they bought all the land on the west bank of the river from Cape Heu- 'open to the falls near Santickan, now Trenton, running back .as much in wards from it in breadth as they ;;s,,.. :. want" The Dutch, who claimed H.a territory, illuminated threats from !'3ae Nassau, but prudently refrained s.374 blows. New Sweden prospered fna. +he start and soon controlled the '!..s,' 3f the Delaware. This prosperit e.. lured until 1855, when Peter @.s eesant invested and reduced Fort ina, thus putting an end to Sw

SUICIDES AND REPENTANCE
Veteran Reporter Thinks All Are
Committed During Insanity.

Suicide is peculiar thing" re- marked veteran police reporter, "and I have always found it inter- esting to study the various methods employed by those seeking self-de- struction. The more I think of the thing the more I am convinced that suicide is committed during a tenn porary derangement of the mind. I'll tell you why think this way. Dur ing my career have reported any number of suicides, All methods poison, shooting, hanging, throat t-cut- ting and droWning-have been en- ployed It is with this last method that I want to deal. After closely studying the proposition have found that in a majority of the cases where drowning was employed the suicide has repented almost as soon as he struck the water. There can be but one explanation of this. and that is that the cold water CT the contact with it, restores the reason to the one seeking self-destruction. and he inn mediately repents. In nine cases out of ten, however, the repentance comes too late, and the suicide dies against his will. When the pistol is en- ployed and correctly used there is no ,:nance for reconsideration of the act. Tic same can be sail O. poisons although I have known of a mum Der of eases. where. after the poison has been taken, the person repents and calls for help. Those suicides who have adopted drowning as the method of self-destruction always in- te,ested me; and 1 have studied out the matter make it a point al- ways to ask, when covering one of these cases, whether or not the sui ci has called for help after strik- ing the water: in nine out of ten cases it was reported that he had. Hanging, when correctly employed is fatally effective. After man has adjusted the strap or rope and kick ed the chair from beneath him there IS absolutely no chance on earth for him to reconsider. Of course, couldn't say positively whether these dead men have had regrets upon feel ing the moose tighten about their 1ecks, but I believe that in a good many eases they have. However, ;bere is no recourse for them and death is the result Suicides have always interested me. and look up- on them with something Of ave- New Orleans Picayune.

But Endicott knew his linlita- tions, and, therefore instead of telling her all that was fin his heart, he sat be side her oal the top step, twirling his hat, watching covertly the changing ex- pressions come and go on her pretty face, and wished most devoutly that le were less of a duffer.

 This was done Then one of the boys asked:
 What is the meaning of this, Mir Powell?"
 The answer was: "Well, some people look down on the church in Cardiff be- cause Mir. Powell, the minister, was not brought up in college I can go back to Cardiff now and tell them that I was raised in Carmarthen college and that l stood higher than all the other students. ."-I.ondon Tit-Bits.

 "Where:' chorused several voices.
 ''To the Bownes' He is going to stay there until they can get trained nurse from the city"
 Endicott stayed even longer than that. He stayed until little Bob Bowne died. Then when the quarantine ol ti3n house was at an end he came back t. the Saunders cottage to get his traps before he went back to town.
 The house party made a hero of him The men sped him coming up the path and carried him, protesting loudly, e. their shoulders into the hall where ali the other guests assembled. They gave him round of cheers, and every oar wanted to grasp him by his hand first.
