In New York, and every other city

fairly tried, the child has been the
immediate beneficiary, and the COM

reported by the inspectors in the
Manhattan schools have been lifted
from bacl1wardness, inattention,
lack of ambition, in many cases re-

MRS. PENELOPE SMITH
COMMITS SUICIDE

Mrs. Penelope Smith. a widow. about
thirty-seven years old. was found dead
about il o'clock last night in her apart
ments in the Park, III Thirteenth street
northeast. Gas was flowing from an
open Jet. and the doors and windows
had been securely fastened. Coroner
hewitt, who gave a eertiicate OK suicide
by ssphyxiation, said the woman had
probably been dead two days.
Mrs Smith had been living alone for
the last two months. Several days
ago she told the neighbors she intended
going away, and when she was not seen
about the place it was supposed she
had left town. Yesterday an odor Of
escaping gas was noticed about the
corridors, and was traced up to Mrs.
Smiths apartments.
The door was opened by means OF z.

lying on the bed. On a writing desk was

Both Wrong.

Apropos of the jamestown Expo
sition, the Massachusetts towns Of
Gloucester and Weymouth are striv-
ing nightly with each other for the
honor of furnishing to New England
its first settlement As a matter of
fact, they are both wrong.
Weymouth historians claim that
Thomas Weston, a trader and adj
venturer, sailed into what is now
known as Quincy bay, in 1922, and
established settlement on the
shores of what has since become
Weymouth. The Gloucester savants
admit the date, but declare that the
seanty little colony that Weston
planted eked out a miserable exist
ence for one winter and then per-
ished. On the other hand, say the
Fish City antiquarians, there is evi-
dence from records which are said
to be irrefutable,, that Fisherman's
Field, now Stage Fort Park, saw the
first permanent Massachusetts bay
settlement when a little band of
fourteen men arrived there in Feb
ruary or March, 1923, with the in
tention of remaining"
AS we observed. before, they are
both wrong in their claims and
their assertions.
The first genuine settlement on
the mainland Of New England was
made at Pemaquid, few miles east
of Boothbay, in the State of Maine.
There is some doubt as to the exact
date of the planting of the colony,
but there is plenty of evidence that
as early as 1915 Pemaquid was a
well-established and prosperous
place, and it is-or should be-well
known that the Plymouth colonists
in their second terrible winter were

STARVED 80 DAYS
LIVED UNDER TREE
Old Woman Turned Out
by Her Daughters
Husband.

MECHANICSNILI-E. y. Y, April 10
A remarkable tale OF priyati0n and en-
durance was told by Mrs. Helen Bordeau,
the seventy-e ight-year-old French woTn-
on who was found in the shelter OF a
fallen tree on the bank of the river
near here.
The woman, who is now in the CohOes
Hospital. says she has lived on the river
bank since March S without food. and
that she dragged herself to the waters
edge daily 70 quench her thirst and
keep life in the body.
Two boys found the woman Sunday at
the side of the big tree. She was still
alive, but too weak TO talk. They noti-
fed the police, who ordered her removed
TO the hospital.
Mrs. Boraeau came to this country
from France a few years ago with her
daughter. Mrs. Arthur Uneaugh. one OF
seventeen children. on March the
daughter died, and, according to the
old woman's story, her sOn-in-law
turned her out OF his house. in COhoes.
Three 6ays after the daughters death
the mo4aeF started away with no idea
of where she was going. On the first
night she slept in a cemetery. At the
end of the second day she had gone ten
miles Late that afternoon she stopped
al a farmhouse, only a quarter Of a mile
from where she was found Sunday. and
asked for something To eat An old
woman there. she says, drove her away.
and then she went down along the river
bank to find shelter for the night
