DUTY OF CITIZENSHIP
Judge Grosscup Sees a New
Spirit Awakening.

Toledo. June 23-Judge Peter S. Grosscup.
of Chicago, in a speech before the Luther
League of Ohio, tonight, discussed the
duties of citizenship
Underneath the surface a new spirit Of
civic responsibility is awakening" he said
ITO be merely rich no longer allures as 1t
did a few years ago. The best of our
young manhood and young womanhood
want something better than mere success
in money making. They want the inspira-
ton of power well used. and to them civic
duty and public position are coming back
again to their old place, as opportunity TO
exercise useful1y power possessed and
power given-in city government and in the
legislatures, as we'll as in Congress and on
the bench, and in those political organi-
cations. too through which lone pubic
opinion can be effectively modified, as well
as on election days.
But this new spirit cannot secure its
ambition by mere changes in the laws
without nor can it live without constant
renewal from within. Direct primaries to
some extent bring elections closer to the
people, but direct primaries in and of them
selves will not prevent organization by con-
vention to control the primaries them
selves The commission form of govern
city government by those privately inter
ested more difficult, but the commission
form of government abandoned by public
interest, is itself as easy of capture as the
old city councils"

Milwaukee June 23.-Enil Seidel, So

Yesterday Mayor Seidel and City Attor-
ney Hoan boarded a streetcar at the City
Hall and paid their fare. Then the Mayor
asked the conductor to exhibit the license

waukee.
License, What do you mean?" queried
the conductor.
II refer to the license allowing you TO
operate this car in the city of Milwaukee. -
said the Mayor.
II haven't any license and l have never
heard OF one" said the conductor, and he
left the Mayor abruptly and went 10 col
lecting other fares.
A city ordinance provides that the COM
pany shall pay into the city treasury. SIS
annually for each car IL operates Mr..

SHOT HERSELF THREE TIMES
Brooklyn Woman Also Drank
Chloroform-Will Die.
IBy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]

Liberty N Y June 23-MrS. Susan Mur-
ray the young wife of n. Francis Murray,
a druggist of No 210 18th street. Brooklyn
shot herself three times in the breast ana
abdomen here late this afternoon In the
Garrett cottage, where the Murrays nave
.been guests for several weeks. Mrs. Muir
ray has been suffering from nervous trouble
for several years, and her husband brought
.her here, thinking that the change to the
quiet of this village would do her good She
showed no signs of improvement, however,
but aside from complaints about the dead
ness of the place, she gave no indication
of increased depression. At no time, even
up to noon to-day did she gave any init
nation of her intention TO end her life.
When, however, her husband left her
after luncheon. she went down into the
village, procured a four-ounce bottle of
chloroform, and returning to her room
drank the contents The result she desired
failed to follow, soon enough, and going
to a drawer in the dresser. she took out
a revolver which her husband had there,
and fired two shots into her left lung, just
below the heart.
The sound of the shots was heard by an
other occupant of the cottage, who rushed
to the room and opened the door just as
Mrs MURRAY who YVES still conscious, was
reaching for the pistol. which had fallen
from her hand after the second shot. This
person. frightened at the sight which met
her eyes on opening the door, Immediately
slammed the door shut again. and as she
did so a third shot was heard. When the
door was opened again Mrs. Murray was
found on the floor with a third bullet in
her abdomen. Dr. A. B. Sullivan was inn
mediately called in, and after examination
he decided to probe for the bullet in the
abdomen and later removed it. The bullets
which penetrated the left lung he would
not attempt to remove for fear of caus-
ing an internal hemorrhage. DR.. Sullivan
says there is no chance of recovery Mrs
Murray, before firing the fatal shots.
penned the following mote to her husband ::
ITO My Husband: Frank, hope you will
forgive me for doing this as yoG have been
good and kind to me, but l am tired OF
life and can't stand this nervous trouble
any longer. Goodby. Your loving wife:

was just learning to embroider and
took much pleasure in the work.
Ned came up behind her and startled
her. She turned and in doing so
dropped her work, which fell to the
ground. Ned caught it UP and ran
away with it. Edna called him, but
his only answer was loud laugh. At
last she went to her mother, and told
about Ned running away with her
work. II think he ought to be pun
ished," she said with tears in her eyes
as she thought of her pretty handker-
chief; but mamma smiled and told her
of a splendid way to get even with
Ned.
Edna ran up to her own little room
and got a nice piece Of linen, then
scampered out to the hammock again
and went to work on the neatest sort

An Ingenious Scheme

The musical code would be a distinct
novelty in wireless telegraphy. yet no
one can deny II Is merely subtle de-
velopment of the art OF the ordinary
bugler. The tunes" could be heard
also no matter how much confusion
was attempted by the operator of ordi-
nary wireless systems.
The manner in which these musical
notes are caused is very ingenious. The
continuous train OF waves still traltsls
outward from the sending aerial to the
receiver. but by means Of controlling
effect produced when a key Is depressed
on the keyboard the waves are alter
nately brought TO great strength and
diminished until quite feeble.
