Committed Suicide.

News reached here last Mon
day of the death of Mr.. John W.
Hopkins, of Central, by his own
hand.
The sad event as told here is
that last Saturday morning Mrs.
Hopkins after dressing a sore on
her husbands face excused her
self to go into the garden and
that before she returned, which
was not more than five minutes,
she heard a pistol fire in the
house and Fastening in found
her husband lying on the floor.
She Immediately called near
neighbor but before he arrived
Mr. Hopkins was dead. It is
thought the cause of his act was
dependency. He had been af-
flicted for several years with
cancer on the face which had
made its way into the muscles
of the neck and was continuing
its ravages, and becoming des-
pondent over his condition he
sought relief in death. He shot
himself just above the heart the

for himself.
And II his inherited disposition is
not SO hopelessly bad, he may be
tempted into badness by the public.
The city life is 10 an environment
created for business purposes and not
with view to his interests. Every
fault Of a boy seems to be appealed
to In the average city. with its crowd
ed homes and poor Fairgrounds, and
the appeals to both his love Of I'm.
wholesome pleasure and Of money
with which to pay for them. Some
times he Is suddenly overwhelmed In
the results Of some blunder that he
never meant to be q crime which is
construed as a crime and he 10 made
q criminal.
There are crime ages. when every
boy finds It easier to do wrong, and
surprising amount Of outside assist
ance in doing 1t. The running away
age is from six to eight, the lawless
age from eight to twelve. and then the
sense Of law begins to awaken In re-
Spouse to the laws OF the gang. Dur.
ing those critical days, It is criminal
and often fatal to he irritable with
him. His boyhood weaknesses aid the
temptations-gluttony. vanity and
often laziness. All the crudities and
contradictions make him more open
to evil. Imitation and imagination
and. later, the development Of the sex
instincts all seem en- the side Of
temptation; and they are. unless he is

And yet nature haC made provision
for his protection and q special provi.
dence aids those who are responsible
for him. He has no reinforcing memo
ries of former victories, though he is
accommodating them, yet his father has
them and holds them for his benefit.
He has a yearning fQT companionship
and his father has 9een elected TO
supply him with all ne needs.
Sometimes the serge Of being In
jured is so acute and 30 just, he is
borne beyond all self-control and
eventually becomes a hardened man,
II not a criminal. When some evil
deed sweeps him OF his feet, he only
needs some one to help him back to
self-respecting. yet self-distrusting,
purity. He needs to be told Of his vir.
tues and supported by an admirable
and contagious example. II the home
