EIGHT Year Old Boy Suicide by
Hanging.

st, Adams, Sept. 15.-Stephen Finn,
eight years old, the son of Former City
Judge Silas w. Finn of this city,
hanged himself about noon today and
the body was cold when discovered
about two hours later. The little fellow
was..rather eccentric and always played
by himself. He was unusually bright
for his age, however, and was popular
newsboy.
Nothing unusual was noticed in the
boys manner to-day and no motive is
known for his self-destruction. He was
missed at dinner time, but no alarm was
felt. When he did not appear later a
search was made and his body was
found hanging in the barn loft. He had
climbed upon an old-fashiOned circular
plant stand. stored in the loft, nailed a
cleat across two rafters, fastened stout
cord to it and made moose, which he
placed about his neck. Apparently he
had then kicked the stand over.
A physician was summoned, but it was
impossible to resuscitate the child. The
mother is an invalid and she is nearly in
sane with grief. Besides the parents the
family consists of another son and two
daughters.

APPLE GROWERS ARE BUSY
Crop NotiUp to Average in Addison
County andlPrices Will Be Hiqh.

Many of the apple growers in Addison
county have begun picking and barrel.
ing their fruit for the market. Owing
to the late spring and unfavorable condi-
tions this summer the crop is not up to
the average and good apples this year
will retail as high as 81 barrel. One
dealer who had agreed to furnish 10000
barrels to New York and Boston firms
was obliged to buy most of the apples in
Nova Scotia in order to fill the contract.
The harvesting of corn in this county
is well under way. Owing to the drought
in August farmers feared that the corn
crop would be failure, but recent rains
have changed the outlook.

Deneen and
His Appointments

All over the state the appoint
ments made by Gov. Deneen
show that Qthe man always looks
at a mans fitness for the place
to which he is appointed. He
has used sane judgment through.
out his three years as chief exc
cutive of the state.
He was state's attorney for
Cook county for eight years and
has had sufficient comingling
with the people to make him "a
man Of wide and varied political
experience.
He does not even consider a
mans color in our opinion. but
his fitness and his moral stand
ing. He has goodly mum Der of
coIored people under him here at
the capitol and over the state,
mostly men of unquestioned
standing in the community from
which they come.
While we desire even more rec
ognltion, Deneen has made as
m my if not more appointments
among our people than any other
governor. Men like Supt. of
Insurance Potter are credit to
our state and as the head is, so
are its tributaries. Whenever
you put good man at the head.
he will invariably cause all of
his subordlnates to be even as
he.
Some time ago, we spoke Of
the colored men holding Office at
the state house, since that time,
there have been two other young
men appointed whom We are
glad to speak of, as we did not
or could not when we gave an ac-
count of the appointees. These
men are: Thos. Wacrick of Cairo.
insurance clerk; and B. H. Lucas
of Chicago, state coal weigher.
These two young men, we feel
proud of, because if we but had
more men whose aims were di-
re ted as these mems are, it
would speak we'll for the race
