New York, July Crank Holt, the half-crazed professor of languages. who made daring attempt last Saturday % kill J. Piarpont Morgan. at his SUIT mer home at East Island WAS found dead in r;ol of blood " ;i:;. osi. in inc M:neala tail |. night af 1O:35 o'clock, having killed himself while his keeper was absent for a few minutes.
 Tn. exact manner in which the ran ended his life is sllrouded in mystery. owing tc the refusal O. tha Nassau county authorities to give out information. but it is believed he hiew his head of by chewing percussion cap. which he had concealed in L's clothing, and which had escaped the eyes of the men who seaSched him when he was arrested.
 County Physician Cleghorn, after examining Holt's body said:
 q believe the man blew his lead off"
 Afterward. the physician and Dis trict Attorney Smith asserted Holt had fractured his skull by diving head first from the trelis work of his cell to the cement floor. Another theory is that ne blew tha top of his head off with 3 pistol that was slipped to him this afternoon by one of the numerous visitors that went 10 his cell. The theory gem erally accepted is that Holt was not SC arched farefully when he was taken to jail and that he secreted the percussion cap and used it at the first opportunity.
 That he had some means of suicide at hand was indicated by the follow ing note found in ;l's cell after his body was discovered, and which is supposed to have been directed 70 his wife. although nc name was founi in it. The note reads.
 "My Dear OneT must write you once more. The more I think of it. the more I see the yuselessness of living unier the ' circ, instances Bring uD the dear babies in fear of God and 1 man Goodbye, sweet. FRANK" "P.

London, July 6.-Optimistic predic- tions concerning a coming Russian campaign for the defense of Warsaw. are contained in dispatches from Pet rograd. Warsaw forms tn ecenter of a chain of 100 miles of strong forti- fications. and even the fall of Ivan gorod would not mean the loss of the Polish capital, it is said.
 Petroerad reports desperate fight ing between the Vistula and Bug rivers, where the country is marsh. Because of the character of th~ land. it is said this campaign will be a constant drain on the German re- sources. and that even victory will. be almost as costly as defeat.

METHODIST CHURCH LARGE
IN ATTENDED,.

A large attendance and de-
lightful program marked the chill
dren's day exercises at the Methodist
church Sunday morning at il
O'Clock. The attendance was the
largest that had ever witnessed Il
program by the children Oh this an
nual event, the seating capacity OF
the church being taxed almost to
it's fullest Provisions of cut flow
ers were used in the decorations
and the excellent manner in which
the program was presented by the
little people indicated the splendid
training they are receiving at the
hands of the faithful women who
are in charge of the primary de-
partment of the Sunday schc.
There were songs, drill, readings
and reeitations, all of which made
up an interesting program that was
thoroughly enjoyed by the large au-
dience. A new feature on this oc-
casion was the introduction of the
cradle roll parade. A number of lit
tie girls took part in this, each one
pushing a beautifully decorated baby
carriage or cart in which a baby had
been snugly tucked. The excuses
began with chorus in which all
the children took part, and they not
only sang we'll, but marched to and
from the platform with the utmost
precision,
The program was declared by
those who heard it to have been one
of the best the children had ever
rendered.
