NORWICH CREEK ATTEMPTS
 SUICIDE AT LOWELL
Charles Savas Saw the Girl He Loved
 With Another Man.

Full of despair at the fckleness of the girl he loved, Sharles Savas, a young Greek of TOT Moody street, at tempted suicide in the yard of the Merrimack mill at $40 a. m. Tuesday in Lowell.
 He handed two letters to his chum, Stavros LaZarropoulos of IT Little street, and while the others back was turned pulled out a rusty pocket knife and stabbed himself in the left breast. He was taken to the Lowell hospital, where it was said that he would prob ably recover.
 One of the letters tells the reasons for$his act. He was sick at heart be- cause of the neglect of a French girl. with whom he was infatuated and was determined to show such girls what Greek love really meant
 The substance of the letter when translated is as follows
 Dear Charlie-She never paid any attention to the other fellow. She had a date with me and the other fellow the other night, but did not show up, and later I saw her with the other fel- low. My love has got the better of me and I am going to commit suicide. you to do it, my friend, for the friend you to do it. ml friend, for the friend ship existing.
 "Friend Stavaron, tell her how my friend has come between us, and also as long as I am in the hospital to come three times a day. as I might get well. When I came out of the pool room at S15 l went te drink water and met her and the other fellow, and 1 came to the conclusion that she was fooIingE me,
 T would advise yeu not te take uP any friendship with French girls, be- cause we Greeks can't stand being fool ed with, Now they will knew what Greek love is.''
 The above letter was not stamped or sealed, but was written to his room mate at 167 Moody street. The other letter was stamped. sealed and ad- dressed to his brother, in Putnam Conn.
 Savas has been at Lowell but week, said his landlord, who keeps fruit stand at 107 Moody stret He came from Norwich, Conn, and had talked about leaving Lowell soon. He had been here before As a bootblack, but this time had secured employment in Merrimack mill No. 6. Monday night he was furnished writing materials and he, sat up for an hour and a half writing letters in the fruit store. When this was commented upon, he said that he was writing to his brother. He con- fided his plans to no one, not even his chum, Lazaropoulos. who. was with him in the mill yard the next morning. He was also very reticent about his love affair when at the boarding house.
 Some Norwich Greeks who were ask ed about MT Savas said he had been here last week and that he worked as a shoeShfnar.
