N. j., Commits Suicide.

New York.-Instead Of celebratini
his fourteenth birthday anniversary.
John ]. Kopp of Orange, N. J.. chose
death by suicide, to end his eleven
years Of suffering from injuries re-
ceived in a fall when he was two
years old. Gas was the means used
to end his life.
The lad was the son Of Mr.. and Mrs.

Orange. The fall which he had when
only two years old is believed by
physicians to have formed a clot at
the base Of the brain.
Since the accident he had suffered
continual headaches. He could not
enjoy life as other boys did, and his
frequent attacks Of illness often kept
him from school Physicians were I'M
able to give any permanent relief.
The mother strove in every way pos
sible to distract his attention and to
prevent him from becoming despon-
dent, but as he grew older he is said
to have brooded eover his apparently
incurable illness.
Mrs. Kopp's absence from home to
buy presents for his birthday gave the
boy the opportunity for which he had
evidently been waiting. Taking the
gas tube from the kitchen stove. he
carried It to his bedroom, and attach.
ing it to the gas jet there. opened the
let and lay down to await death. When
his mother returned with her arms
filled with presents for him she found
him dead.

But Malcahy never learned Of this
golden opportunity which might have

he gave the officer who accompanied
him to the island the name and ad-

At the end Of the week he was sit

had seemed a fantom on that dread

Between mouthfuls Of fat turkey
and cranberry sauce he boasted to

No. he determined to go back there
honorably, as he had left. He might
get job shoveling snow-but alas! It
was one Of those cheerless Christ
masses, and nature had not even sup
piled the people out Of work with
snow to shovel.
Mulcahy had worked all his life.
He was fifty now, and. as he unrolled
the long catalogue Of calamity which
other people might have called his
career. he found that the only year
Of his life that had been a happy one
was his last in Jail.
These thoughts and the haunting

He shuddered and hurried down a
side street of American-basement
houses, with their dainty Boston ferns

And this atmosphere gave Mulcahy
hope. The inspiration born Of des-

He intended to abandon all thoughts

It was worse than hopeless to think
