Cook came to her death by her own
hand and that she and she alone was
therefore responsible for her act.
Virginius j. Mayo, employer of the
young woman at the time of her dis
appearance more than a week ago,
was instructed to disregard sub

had performed the autopsy upon Miss
Cook had found certain conditions,
one of which might have indicated
kind, but nothing that would posi-
lively establish a cause for the young
lady to go to a lonely spot in West
Rock and send a bullet into her
heart.
The same official was responsible
for the statement that Frank Cook,
the father, had told the coroner dur

his daughter had been Respondent
for more than a year. Prior I'd
that time it was said he told the cor
oner, she had been in excellent spir-

having said that at the time. he was

all of his expenses.
The announcement by the coroner
that the investigation had been COM
pleted followed one issued by States
Attorney A11ing in which he said that
his office was satisfied that neither
Mayo nor any other person could
throw any light upon her suicide and
that the investigation of the coroner,
therefore, would come to an end

why They Don't Hear.

Perhaps the limit of hymnic faulty
was reached by the writer of hymn
575 in the Ancient and Modern" coll
lection. Here is the fourth stanza:
They do not hear when the great bell
Is ringing overhead;
They cannot rise and come to church
With US. for they are dead.
The list Of things which they are
unable to do might be Indefinitely ex-
tended, and it seems thing Incredible
that the author of the above verse
should have written so beautiful and
moving a hymn as There is green
hill far away."-London Chrpniele.
