TURN OVER A NEW LEAF

With this issue of The Sentinel
another year closes, and new one
1o11 confronts us. 1t is the wish
of everyone in Wrangell to make
that new year something better and
more satisfactory to the town as a
whole than the one now slowly dy-
ing, good though 1910 has been as
compared with the past. How to
bring this condition about is the
vital question for us to decide.
In the first place it seems to this
paper that the one thing needed
above all else here in Wrangell is
for US all to get together and de-
eide on some plan of action looking
to the betterment of conditions
here in the future. We have no
commercial body of any kind, actu-
ally in existance: We need and
must have one, so that we may
have some organization in which
we may meet on common level
for a common purpose. Other
towns have their Chambers of Con
merce or their Commercial Clubs,
and good results. Why can we
not do the same in Wrangell? \
club of this nature affording an
outlet for ideas is sure to bring
about results. We need some op-
portunity of meeting and talking
matters over. and having arrived
at some conclusion as the result of
such discussion, we will then have
the means CT putting them into ef-
feet.
Think it over and then get busy.

TO FRIENDS REQUEST.

Superior, Wis, Dec. 31.-"Yes, Til

Answering a companion with these
words, Peter Corgan, a Third street
saloonkeeper, damned 32-caliber re-
volver down his throat and pulled the
trigger. Death was almost fnstanstan-
eous, the bullet piercing the mans
tongue and coming out through the
back of the neck.
The deed was committed about
o'clock yesterday afternoon at the
dead mans home, above 17lS North
Third street, where Crogan conducted
a saloon with partner, Emil Yili-
talo. Shortly before 5 o'clock Crogan
was down stairs In the saloon and,
taking with him the revolver, went
up to his home. His wife and three
children were there in an adjoining
room to the one in which the deed
was committed None of the MEM
bers of the family or friends OF the
suicide could attribute any cause for
the man destroying his life. 1t Is
believed that the deed was committed
in a fit Of dependency brought about
by excessive drink.
He was sitting in rocking chair at
the time. His wife was in the next
room mentioned. putting the children
to sleep. She claims that she had no
intimation whatsoever that Crogan
contemplated such a deed and believes
that her husband was temporarily out
of his mind through his excessive use
of intoxicants.
He had been drinking heavily with
companions during the day. One Of
these friends came from the saloon
downstairs and called from near the
door to Crogan to come downstairs
