ADDRESSED ELECTRICAL WORKERS

Grand President F. ]. McNulty of the
international Brotherhood Of Electrical
Workers, addressed a meeting Of the local
lodge last night. Mr.. McNulty dweIt at
length upon the necessity OF getting all
electricians in the union instead Of allow
ing them TO remain on the outside. and
noted numerous localities where much
good had been accomplished by the ac-
ceptance of men who on account of ques-
tionable transactions in past labor dis
putes were previously not admitted. He
said that there should always be times
for q display Of leniency and that it was
sometimes a wise move to even admit
a '''scab'-that frequently such men made
the best kind of union men.
For the use Of the delegates to the Ma
tional Enoampment of the Union Veteran
Legion, to be held here next September
a special badge has been adopted. The
badge viii be Of lemon gold. There will be

STRAIN BREAKS
BRILLIANT MIND
Harry Nelson Pillsbury Great Chess Player,
Victim of Tragedy.

ERIHEN Harry Nelson PiHsbury, the
Wv American champion chess player,
one time champion of the world,
and probably the most marvellous trick
chess player that ever lived, tried to
commit suicide in Philadelphia during
a fit Of insanity a few DAYS ago, he
only fulfilled the fate which has been
that of nearly all of the great masters
of the game. The tremendous mental
strain which they undergo in the great
tournaments. aided and abetted by ex-
cessive use of stimulants 10 keep them
keyed UP TO the proper pitch, IS too
much for the human brain, no matter
how abnormaliy brilliant.
For two or three years Harry Pills
bury had been in III health. In the in
ternational tournament of 1904, won by
Frank Marshall of Brooklyn, he fin
ished third. During the past winter he
had been unable to play chess. Years
OF excessive smoking had shattered mis-
nervous system and made it impossible
for him TO participate in chess touTna-
ments. Unable TO follow his DTOfes-
sion. he was in much reduced circum-
stances He and his wife, formerly a
Miss Bush of Brooklyn. had to move
into rooms on the fourth floor of a
boarding house.
A little over a week ago his condition
was so bad that he was sent to the
Presbyterian hospital in Philadelphia.
He was operated upon, and two days
later his mind failed him utterly. and
he attempted to take his life by jump
ing from the fourth-stOry window
Harry Pillsbury was born in Somer-
vile, Mass. in December, 1872, and Is.
therefore. not vet 30 years old At the
