Reception to High School
Teachers.

Last Monday night the Windsor
Hotel was the scene of an informal.
yet brilliant and festive social func-
ton, the same being a reception
given to the High School teachers

reception was rendered this class

! pleasures, however, were not born of
polite compulsion; both receptions
were evidences of the perfect good
feeling existing between faculty and
students.
Varied and pleasing were the
forms Of entertainment provided,
admirably designed to prove that
even High School teachers are sus-
ceptible to the pretty dupes and |
trickeries of new social amusements. |
When the students felt that they
had inflicted sufficient torments to
cancel their own previous sufferings,

Superintendent of Sussex Co.
Schools.

John D. Brooks, Superintendent
of Schools for Suss ex County, was
bornin York County, Pennsylvania.
His ancestry was mainly English
Quaker, Scotch Irish PRESBYTERIAN
and Welsh extraction. His early
training was obtained in a couutrv
school and in labor on the farm.
Farm labor was always distasteful
to him, while school life, its books
and duties were constantly attrac
tive. At the age of fourteen, his
teacher told him he must attend a
higher school. The problem of wavs
and means for higher education
were first brought prominently be-
fore him. He solved it by laboring
for the surrounding farmers and in
a neighboring canning factory, until
he had obtained means to purchase
clothes and books and pay his tut
tion in a High School in the town
of Delta. six miles from his home.
His means didn't permit him to
purchase an overcoat or gloves, so
the next winter he rode or walked
the distance to school without those
articles. During this
winter his mother died of consump-
ton. f
He attended at the High School
for two years until he graduated at
the head of his class. A portion of
he time he boarded himself in a
-oom in the town, doing his own
cooking. This is the most un-
pleasant memory of his school life.
At the age of seventeen, he found Z.
imself installed in a country school

THIRD ATTEMPT
WAS SUCCESSFUL
GOOD LOOKING CHOIR SINGER
COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Miss Pauline Muff Had Twice Before
Tried to End life-victim
OF Mania.

New York, July 13.-After twice un-
successfully attempting suicide, Miss
Pauline Muff, choir singer, who
lived at 355 Tompkins avenue, Brook
lyn, today took her life by drinking
carbolic acid. Favored with good
looks, good social position, loving par
ents, an excellent home and a wide
circle of friends, the girl was the vic
tim of a suicidal mania that had held
her for years and caused her to make
repeated attempts to end her life.
Four years ago, it is said, she jumped
from a ferryboat and when rescued
with difficulty said that life had no
pleasure for her. Three weeks ago,
when the young woman's brother-in-
law died, leaving her sister with an
infant child, the affair preyed on Miss
Muff's mind until she secured a ga
tube, and, after attaching 1t to jet,
attempted to asphyxiate herself Her
mother discovered her just in time to
save her, and the girl was sent to the
Catholic hospital to recover.
After she returned she was allowed
vacation by her employers. Today
when she failed to appear at breakfast
no notice was taken, as she was sup
posed to be resting. About noon she
rushed into the kitchen, and, after OBJ
taing a glass OF milk. dashed it on the
floor and rushed from the room Her
parents smelled carbolic acid and rau
after her, to find her dying on her bed
DR.. Morrison was called and pro-
ncunced the girl dead.
Miss Muff was 26 years old, attrac-
tive and talented.

ALLIANCE SALOONIST
Discharged on Action For Selling Beer
on SUNDAY,

Alliance, o., July 13.-Michael Untch,
local saloonkeeper, was tried and re-
leased by Mayor Walker, Thursday af-
ternoon, for selling liquor on Sunday.
Last Sunday George Dosa was arrested
for raising a disturbance. and at that
time he stated that he had purchased
case of beer from Untch and paid for
the same on Sunday. Acting upon
this information. a warrant was sworn
out for Mr.. Untch and his prosecution
seemed certain. When the time came
for trial Thursday afternoon neither
the accused nor the principal witness
were present. Shortly after time, how
ever, both appeared in the office to-
gether. When the examination was
made Mr.. Dosa evidently changed his
mind. and, contrary to his statement
made on Sunday, stated that he had
purchased the case Of beer from Mr..
Untch on Saturday night and had paid
for the same then. and had merely left
it in Untchs cellar until Sunday after
noon. For lack of sufficient evidence,
Untch was discharged.

MUTILATED BODY

Belmont, Mass, July 13.-Either
late last night or early this morning a
young woman, apparently about 35
years old, was battered to the ground
and her head almost completely sew
cred from her body.
Who the assassin was is unknown,
and the police have absolutely no clue
upon which to work. The body Of the
murdered woman was discovered by
three men this afternoon lying In a
gully about five feet deep in seclud-
ed spot of the Arlington Golf Club
links, near the town line. There was
every indication of murder. and the
men Immediately notified the police
and Medical Examiner Swan. The
state police were also summoned and
they have the case in hand. They are
endeavoring to establish the identity
of the woman. This accomplished,
every possible move to unravel the
mystery surrounding the murder will
be made. An autopsy was performed
tonight by Director Swan and he has
declared 1t to be case of plain muir
der" No criminal assault had been
committed. The head had been terri
bly, battered, evidently by a large
stone, and the face was cut almost into
shreds. The flesh had been cut entire
ly around the neck. and the head hung
to the body only by the windpipe. The
left hand also was badly cut. DR.. Swan
declared that death resulted either
from fractured skull or from the aw-
full cash about the throat, and that the
woman had been dead less than "a
hours. Appearances indicate that the
woman had been dragged a distance
of about 80 feet and then thrown over
a great stone wall.

Chicago, July ia cablegram TO
the Daily News from Stockholm says

the country over the sudden announce
ment that a German armada, con-
sisting of twelve battleships, eleven
cruisers and ten torpedo boats will
make demonstration at five differ
ent points in Swedish waters, between
July 20 and August T. Gothenburg
and Uddevalla will be visited on the
west and Stockholm. Karlstrom and
Narrkoping ON the east. No foreign
feet of such proportions ever came to
Sweden before. The disposition of the
squadron will amount to a blockade
OF the entire swedish coast,
1t is not too much to say that the
thus unexpected and unsolicited visit
OF the kaiser's navy, while not con-
sidered hostile act, excites aston
ishment bordering on alarm. Nobody,
not even the government officials Is
able to offer an explanation. The
newspapers refrain from comment be-
cause as editors confidentially inform
your correspondent, they are aston
ished at this fresh outbreak of VIII.

mystification. If he intends 1t as a
token of friendship it is asserted that
he has overdone it, and that he ought
to have chosen a more amiable and
less disquieting form of amity than
girdling Sweden with a formidable
Gordon of German battleships.
Stockholm was aroused last night
by the roar of saluting guns in the
inner harbor. When the smoke clear-

Aegir was found anchored near the

notwithstanding that Stockholm ten
days ago was officially declared a war

Swedish suspectibilities are further
injured by the information that the
German general staff has detailed Of

GREAT SIGNIFICANCE
Attached to Presidents Remarks
About Gen. Wood.

Washington, July 13.-There is be-
lief here that President Roosevelt's
tribute to the work of Gen. Leonard
Wood in Cuba in connection with his
remarks about the Panama canal in
the address made yesterday at Oyster
Bay possesses greater significance than
appears on the surface.
Some persons are inclined to think
that the President has In mind ap-
pointing Gen. Wood to special mis-
sion to go to Panama and investigate
conditions there.
There has already been some specu-
lation as to the real cause for Gen.
Woods homecoming. The Preident's
address has set the theorists guessing
in new direction. 1t would not be
impossible to detach Gen. Wood from
his command in the Philippines for
special service, and place for him in

dent deemed 1t desirable.
