Commits Suicide.

BERLIN. March IA dispatch from
Allenstein. east Prussia. says that Capt.
Won Goeben, who killed Mai Won Schoen-
back. fellow-officer. on Christmas night,
and has been awaiting court-martial. has
committed suicide by opening an artery
in his neck.
A few days after Christmas Capt. Won
Goeben was arrested relative to the death
of Mai. Won Schoenbeck. whose body had
been found lying at the foot of the stairs
leading from his wifes room. with a fully
loaded revolver beside 1t. Won Goeben
finally confessed to killing his brother
officer. and subsequently declared that he
was glad he did so. because he only re-
moved a man who had made his wife s
life misery by continued i'll treatment.
1t appears that on Christmas day Capt.
Won Goeben dined with Mai. Won Schoen-
beck and his wife in their home. After
saying good night. the captain pretended
to leave the house. He slammed the
front door. though he did not go out.
Some time later Maj. Won Schoenbeck was
aroused by noise. and. going downstairs,
with a loaded revolver In his hand. en-
countered q man. who shot him dead.
This man nroved to be Won Goehen.
Dispatches from Allenstein early in jan
uary said that Mrs. Won Schoenbeck, who
was arrested as an accessory to the muT-
der. had gone insane.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

In sympathy. apparently. with the ten
dency of some of the more active securi-
ties. the bid for Washington Railway and
Electric Company's common stock rose
at today's meeting Of the Stock Exchange
to the level of the asking price Of yester-
day. When 20 was bid one of the brokers
remarked that 1t was the highest price
reached for months past, and when some
one suggested weeks instead of months
he accepted the amendment without hes
itation.
However, the better price did not bring
out the stock, and the same thing occurred
In the case Of the preferred stock. as 6S
was bid. which was only a repetition of
the figures of yesterday that were not
maintained throughout the trading of that
day. Today 50 continued to be the bid,
with the asking price at 69h.
Some comment was made about the
rapidity with which this stock was going
up, which elected the remark that it
could be done without sales. as those were
not likely to take place until somewhere
in the seventies. when. it was thought,
plenty of stock could be had.
AS has been usual in recent days the
demand for fractional lots of the pre-
ferred was greater than for quotation lots,
buying Is still going on. as 1t Is supposed
that they are to meet the orders Of peo-
pie who are buying the stock outright.
Gas stock sold down instead of up, and
the course of this security in recent days
was interrupted by movement in the
opposite direction. The scale of the trad
the bid was 597s and the asking price COY.

The first examination was before

great sins.
The strongest defense any man has
is his own consciousness OF right.
Caiaphas tried to lay trap for Jesus
by making him talk
Jcsus appealed to his record already
made and widely known.
4 good record is a wonderful thing.
II is a splendid sight TO see man

iidence to his l:ie, and what others
knew about it.

II was an offcnse TO justice, but the
high priest did not rebuke it.
Sin and hate are the meanest things

The angry officer and the calm Christ
were in the strongest contrast.

The devil saw him When the devil
sees a man where he has no business

OF course the regular servants OF the
palace knew the man at the fire was n
stranger.
1t is always to pass yourself off for
what you are not. There IS always
someone that knows
When Peter sad II am not, it is
more than probable that his questioncr
turned to some other servant and said,
DO YOU see that man there; | just
asked him il he was not a disciple OF
Jesus. He said No But he is. He
is liar and a coward"
Someone always knows that the man
who does not tell the truth is lying.
II no one else knows, the liar him

No liar can ever quite get away from
the fact that a lie is a lie.

The means which Peter took to

Those tears led Peter back to himself.
He was down at the bottom OF the
