A YOUTH ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.

James Cook, twenty years old, called
upon Miss Jessie Windsor at the home
of Mr.. James NJ. Davis, 1908 Prince
street, on Saturday night, and accord
ing to a statement made by the young
woman, Cook, after a quarrel, pulled
out a revolver and said, III end it all''
and shot himself. After DR.. Delaney
had been summoned he was hurried to
the Alexandria Hospital, where it was
found that the bullet entered the fourth
and fifth ribs on the right side. Young
Cook, was employed in a tailoring
establishment in this city.
Young Cooks condition had inn
proved somewhat this morning.
There is more than one version OF
the affair One is that the young
woman has recently been re-
ceiving the attentions OF a young man
in Washington, and that Young Cook,
after attempting to induce Miss Wind
sor to cease receiving his attention, shot
himself 1t is also said that two shots
were fired, one OF which burned Miss
Windsor's arm while she was endeav-
oring to prevent her sutton from shoot
ing himself. People, however, who
were in the house at the time say but
one shot was fired.
Members of the young mans family
deny positively that there was any at,
tempt on his part to commit tuicide,
but say his wound was accidentally in
aictal

FELL THROUGH A TREsTLE.

The police were informed at an early
hour this morning that man supposed
to be dead, was lying at Spring Park,
on the electric railroad. The mans
face was bloody, and report rapidly
spread to the effect that Alexandria had
another murder mystery to solve.
Officers Young, Ferguson, Rawlett and
Sampson proceeded to Spring Park
when it was found that the man, al
though badly hurt, was not dead. He
was taken to the Alexandria Hospital
where it was found that his skull was
fractured and that he was suffering
from other injuries. Upon regaining con-
sciousness he said his name was Julius
Strickland, that hewas from Richmond
and that be fell through trestle al
Spring Park while endeavoring to board
southbound freight train.

DEATH OF THOMAS A. BRoADUs.

Thomas Andrew isroadus, son OF the
late James NJ and Mary C. Broadus,
OF this city, died ON Saturday night at
the Garfield Hospital in Washington
after an illness OF several weeks. MIR.
Broadus was born in Culpeper county,
but in childhood removed with his
parents TO Alexandria, where ho spent
most OF his life. In his early years he
was a teacher but later became con-
nected with the government pension
Office, in which position he continued
until his death. Peculiarly strong was
his hold upon the hearts Of his friends.
In his wide circle he. was we'll known
for his meatal gifts and attractive social
qualities as we'll as for the helpfulness
OF his sunny, Christian character. He
had marked taste for literary pursuits
and through all his life was nm oc-
casional contributor to the press. Mr..
Broadus is survived by his vile, who
was a daughter OF tho late Mr.. William
F. Bolts, OF Culpeper; his son, DR.. Ed
mund Kemper Broadus, OF the UnlVer-
sity OF Alberta, Canada; his two sisters,
Misses Rosalie and Reubie Brodaus, OF
this city; and his brother, Mr.. John
Cooke Broadus, OF Monclair, n. J. The
funeral will take place this afternoon at
Falls Church. After the services,
which will be conducted by Rev. w.
8. o. Thomas, pastor OF the Baptist
Church, the body will be taken to Oak

BATTERY RODGERS COVE.

AS has been stated, the work OF
throwing an earthen retaining wall
across Battery Rogers cove, prepare
tory to the harbor improvement work
to start there shortly under the dlrec-
ton OF army engineers, has been com
menced. A fleet Of scows and dredges
employed. ;.
The embankment will run i'll line
north from Jones's point, near the light
house, to the Alexandria shipyard. The
large quantity OF material to be exca-
waited from the river channel at Alexan-
dria will be pumped into the space.
The strange claim that the land made
by the dredging operations will belong
to the District OF Columbia is being
argued. This will. OF course, be dis
puted by the abutting property owners.
It is probable that the state OF Virginia
will also take part in the controversy
as the reclaimed land will form the
eastern termini OF several streets OF the
CITY.

81 Sentido
Com1n

Alguien dijo una vez que
el sentido comGn es ell me.
nos comIn de los sentidos, y
desde entoncas. toGos hemos
venido repitiendo con perfec
ia conviction esa frase para
d6jica, que no pasa de ser un
retruecano irgeniGso.
Esa expression de "sentido
comlin" liene dos acepciones.
La primera la define como la
facultad interior en- la cual
se reciben 6 imprimen todas
las especies 6 imagenes dc
los objetos que envian los
sentidos exteriores. La Sc.
gunda acepci6n la define CO..
mo facultad dc juZgar razo-
nablemente de las cosas.
Originalmente, ese sentido
com1n a que Sc refiieYe la
primera definici6n, Sc llama
ba tambien 'sentido inter.
no" y es 10 que puede lamar
Sc sentido collective, forma-
do por la union de los otros
cinco considerados como cor
porales, los que Sc suponla

los ssntidos exter..ores, es
donde ell alma juzga y dicier-
ne de la diferencia de los OBJ
jetos. Y sospecho que Sc lie
llam6 "sentido comdn" por
ser comdn & todos los seres.
Pero no es mi objeto exten
derme en- 10 que Sc relaciona
puramente en- la filosofia
mental, sino concretarme a
la segunda acepci6n, que es
la mas vulgar y corrlente.
Pues bien, ese poder que
Sc supone posee todo ell nun

cuestiones sencillas, ese jul
clio que es corndn al genero
humane, no es nj puede ser
el menos com1n de los senti.
dos, pues, por desgracia, TO-
dos los tenemos.
Y digo, por desgrseia, por
que. nada hay tan falso como
