WOMAN SUCCUMBS
TO BULLET WOUND
MRS. HARRINGTON DIES AFTER
HARD STRUGGLE
Was Shot by Her Husband In a Little
Room in Rear Of Their Grocery,
When Man Killed
Himself

After making brave struggle
against the inevitable Mrs. Susanna
Harrington, who. was shot by her hus-
band, Frank Harrington, on tie even
ing of June and who then killed
himself, passed away at the Good
Samaritan hospital at IL o'clock yes
terday morning.
1t was at first thought that Mrs.
Harrington, desperately wounded as
she was, would pull through, and ev-
erything possible known to medical
and surgical science was done for her
by the surgeons at the receiving hos
pital, where she was first taken, and
afterward by DR.. Harvey Hall, who
took charge of the case as soon as she
was transferred to the Good Samar-
itan.
Mrs. Harrington was shot three
times, all the bullets taking effect in
the head. Shs rallied so greatly from
the shock that it was believed that
she could live. .Jhe began sinking
Saturday night, however, and passed
away unconscious at the hour stated.
Mrs. Harrington had been married
to the man who shot her two years,
having met him in Chicago shortly
after she had obtained a divorce from
her first husband at Youngstown, o.
Mrs. Harrington's maiden name was
MlileT, anu sic IdQ DTOIHer, Il. II.
Miller, residing in Youngstown and
also four children by her first husband,
who live with their uncle.
He was notified last evening of the
death of his sister. The dead woman
had planned to leave Harrington and
return to Youngstown the day after
she was shot, and it is believed that
her husband, learning of this, killed
her to prevent her going away.
Gerbes, who lives in Youngstown, was
notified of her mothers death and
Pierce Bros. are awaiting a reply be-
fore making funeral arrangements.
The inquest will be held Wednes-
day morning at 9 o'clock.

JUST LIKE
OTHER CHILDREN
Or. Robert J. Burdette Finds Consola-
tion for His Congregation That
the Apostle Was Only
Human

At the Temple Baptist church yes
terday DIR. Robert j. Burdette preached
in the morning on THE Way Of a
Child,' taking for his text / Cor
inthians 1S:11-"When was a child
1 spake as child, I felt as a child,
1 thought as a child" He said 1T is
joy to know, from his own testi-
mony, that this mighty preacher, the
great apostle, prophet, martyr; this
man of men, whose name stands
among the first Of the great teachers
of redemption; whose figure looms up
on the landscape of history, a peak
above the mountains, was a child-a
real child-just such a child as he
portrays in two or threo pen-strokes.
Not a little human monster Of pre-
cocicity; not a prig of artificial de-
velopment and training; not a little
man, even, which the normal child
is not, any more than a sapling Is a
little tree. All that we know of Paul's
childhood is this, that he was like
other children; like your children, If
you please.
The spirit of much of our present
day biography concerns itself with the
childhood of it's subject. 1t devotes
pages of banality to the record-often
an imaginary one, of the prophetic
incidents of the nursery and school
day history of the hero and heroine
a record which has for the world
audience that thrilling interest which
pertains to the young mothers stories

LITTLE GIRL BITTEN
BY FIERCE BULLDOG

AS happy and as care-free as any
child in the land, little Dorothy Briggs
went to "do the dishes" for her mother
yesterday morning at her step-father's
house, 482 California street. Dorothy
left the dishes unfinished shortly before
II o'clock and was rushed to the re-
ceiving hospital to have two big gashes
in her right arm sewed up.
Dorothy had just dried her pet China
cup and reached to put it on the shelf.
Suddenly her step-father's big bulldog
lunged at the slender arm, and grasp
ing 1t between his teeth held on with
customary bulldog tenacity. The tender
flesh was cruelty chewed, and the child
shrieked with pain. The dog was
beaten off and the girl taken to the re-
ceiving hospital, where 1t took three
doctors to quiet her. The arm was
sewed up and the child sent home.

of Little Willie, for the first five years
of his remarkable career.
The emphatic desire and effort Of
the modern biographer is to impress
upon the world the belief that his hero
was not at all like other children,
and had he died at the age of 10, the
world would have put on girdle of
crepe for it's equator. But we COM
pare the great apostle with the great
men of our own age; If their friends
boast of them and their greatness,
then shall mo man stop us of boast
ing Of him "who was not C whit be-
hind the very chiefest of apostles"
But when they bark back into the
misty falry-land country Of child
hood, though we have no traditions,
verified by the impartial anI ever
veritable testimony Of such trust
worthy eye-witnesses as grandma,
grandpa, Uncle Henry, Cousin Ida,
the old nurse and the only mother
yet are we not silenced, for we know,
and there is joy in the knowledge,
that Paul was just like other chill
dren-the only kind of children that
grow to be splendid women and noble
men. The other kind, I think, sell
dom grow up.
And IL they do. somehow or other,
their "wonderfulness" gets nipped by
the first white frost of maturity and
the trials of life. 1t never comes
through" Small oaks from mighty
acorns grow. 1t is a most unfortunate
thing for human being to be born
full grown.

HERMANN TRIAL
NEAR ITS END

Resumiug his argument this morning
Attorney A S. Worthington for the de-
Tense in the trial OF former Representa-
tive Binger Hermann Of Oregon, indiet-
ed for destroying public records Of the
Land Office, commended that there was
nothing in the HoIsinger report to show
that any of the land obtained by Hyde
and Benson was obtained by unlawful
means. The Government, ne argued,
nad not established any fraud on the
part OF the defendant.
Mr.. Worthington discussed the testi-
mony Of the witness SOrensOn and en-
deavored TO discredit IL. He devoted
some time to the testimony relating Il
the creation Of the Blue Mountain For
est Reserve, and argued that Hermann
had followed the practice Of the Office
in such matters.
Mr. WorthingtOn will conclude his ar
gument today and VIII be followed to
morrow by District Attorney Baker. who
will close for the Government. Justice
Stafford may charge the jury Friday

HALF INCH Of RAIN
ORENCHES THE CITY

Rarely in the history Of the city has
there been a harder rain than that
which fell last night, while thunder
and lightning mixed in to make the
storm a genuine forerunner of summer.
Although light showers had prevailed
during the day nobody was prepared
for the drenching rain that swept down
on the city shortly after O'Clock. For
nearly ten minutes there was small
sized deuge, and the streets OF Wash
ingtOu were deserted. Many theater-
goers, on their way TO the various play
houses, were caught, but some remained
in the cars until the storm was over.
The Weather Bureau estimates the
rainfall up 20 10 o'clock, when it had
practically ceased, At 80 of an inch.
