met with Sucn overwhelming defeat
in national elections of recent years
that ordinarily, it would seem cx-
trcmcly hazardous to predict Il Dem

Washington today many of the best

Mclancholia, Due to Ovcrwork.
Suffering from mclancholia, due TO
~overwork, Miss Ruth Chambcrlin
Weed, Of Philadelphia, shot and kill
ed Miss Elizabeth Bailey Hardee, OF
No. 2l4 Gwinncth street, East Savan-
nah, Georgia, and then committed
suicide at the Laurcns School for
Girls in the Fcnway district. The
bodies Of the two women were found
by Mrs. Page, the matron Of The
school. The Laurcns School was cs-
tablishcd last fall by Miss Hardec
and Miss Weed. On October l., the
day school opened, Miss Weed broke
down as Il result OF oNcrwOrk and as
Il result was committed TO Il Sanitari-
um to be treated for nervous prostra-
ton.
Tuesday night Miss Weed escaped
from the Sanitarium and made her
way to the school. She appeared to
be badly ~dcranged mentally. 4
fruitlcsS attempt wa made to com
municatc with the authorities of the
sanitarium, and at length Miss lIar-
dee succeeded in getting Miss Weed
to go to bed in Miss lIardce's cham
Der on the third floor Of the school
building.
Both women were awakened by
Mrs. Page and notified that they must
get up if they we're to catch the $50
train, on which Miss Weed was to be
taken to West Newton. Mrs. Page
left them and Il few moments later
the shooting occurred. Mrs. Page
thinks the mention OF returning to
the Sanitarium must have excited
and angcrcd Miss Weed and induced
the shooting.
From the nature Of the wounds
Medical Examiner Stedmam decided
that Miss Weed had committed suici-
de by shooting herself through the
right temple after having shot Miss
llardcc through the base OF the brain.
Both womcu were about 80 years old
and they had been intimate since
their graduation from Wellesley Col
lego. Miss llardcc received her di-
ploma in 1894, while Miss Weed re
ccivcd hers a ear later Miss lIar.
dee was an INSTRUCTOR Of mathcmat-
les in Wellesley in 1899 and 1900,
and last year taught school in Yer
mont.
Miss Weed also had bcen teaching
in various sections OF the county.
Last Summc the two womcn decided
to open a boarding school for girls
on Audubon road, in the Fcnway
district, October ], the day upon
which the Laurcns School, as they call
Cd il, Was opened. Miss Weed broke
down as a result OF ovcrwork and
was taken to Il sanitarium in West
Newton, whore She had since been
under treatment. While at tho san
itarium Miss Weed had been subject
to severe attacks OF mclancholia. IIs-
Gaping the other night, she made nor
way to laurCns School, whore Miss

HIGH SPEED SHIPS WANTED
Rapid Transit in Ocean Travel Is the
Popular Demand Of the
Day.

Among TIE advantages claimed for
The increasingly popular passenger
ships OF large size and moderate
speed should be mentioned the fact
that many OF them are showing in
regular service a rate OF speed which
is fully as high aS that which they
maintained on their trials in smooth
water, states the Scientific American.
Moreover. because OF their great
weight and momentum and their mod
crate speed they are not so greatly af-
fected by adverse weather conditions
as the faster ships ard their coming

ty and close adherence TO the sailing

maintained an average speed OF 173l
miles an hour. while on Its preceding

Two Good Rules.

Remember that charity thinketh no
evil. much less repeats. There are two
good rules which ought to be written
on every heart: Never believe any
thing bad about anybody unless you
positively know that 1t is true, never
tell even that unless you feel 1t is alb.
