MAY HAVE BEEN FIRED
Suspicion Exists That Bridge Was
Burned Maliciously.

Possibility exists that the burning
of the bridge over the Burlington
tracks west of Beacon Monday was a
piece of malicious work done to en-
barrass the circus management by
former employees who left the show
here Monday.
Several of the employees were dis
charged here for engaging in nasty
fight on the show grounds Sunday.
The men were resentful, it is said.
Several OF these same "roustabouts'
were seen TO board the blind baggage
OF the 90" passenger to Tracy Mon
day evening and the fire early Tues
day morning may have been started
by them. The, bridge was fired soon
after the first section of the show
trains went west. N.

ENDS LIFE WHEN
REFUSED A LOAN
CHICAGO BANKER FEARED RUN
ON HIS INSTITUTION.
DEPosIIoRs ARE NOT WORRIED
Wife Declares All VIII Be Paid in
FuIl-Was One of Largest Pri-
waite Banks in city--Had De-
posts Of 100000.

Chicago, Sept. 19.-"I shall work
until every dollar is paid and then /,
too. will die" said Mrs. Joseph Tuna
after she recovered from the shock
of her husbands suicide when
feared run on his private hank
brought him near ruin.
Suicides When Refused Loan.
Chicago, Sept 19.--.Ioseph Tuna,
owner OF the Tuna Savings bank, 4Ol3
West Twelfth street, one Of the pri-
vate institutions under investigation
by States Attorney Hoyne, shot and
killed himself while standing OH a pier
in the lake at the foot Of Wrfghtw0od
avenue.
He had applied to downtown bank
earlier lin the day for loan of SlO,-
900. Failure to obtain it and worry
over the states attorneys lnvestiga-
act.
The shot was heard by Thomas
ODOnnell, a Lincoln park policeman,
who recovered Tumas body, which
was taken TO Bentley'S undertaking
rooms at PHO North Clark street.
Had 100000 in Deposits
Assistant States Attorney AleXan-
der Il. Arkin at once was sent toI
Tnma's bank by Mr.. HOyne. He found
records indicating there are deposits
of 100000.
Attorney w. Il. Clark, counsel for
the banker. was an early arrival and
assisted in obtaining access 10 the
records. ,.7r
The bank was closed Immediately
and, according to Mr.. Arkin, will re-
main closed until the courts place
custodian in charge. This may be
done by appointing an administrator
for Tuma's eGtate. F
In the afternoon Tuna called his
wife by telephone.
ale told me he would he late and
that | should close the bank at the
regular hour" said Mrs. Tuna. "If
delayed it was his custom to do that.
50 thought nothing Of it, | knew he
had taken some securities with him
and intended to arrange for loan"
Refused $4,000 Loan.
Tuna had visited tie Union Trust
company and applied for loan of
$4,000. This was refused on the Sc,
curities he offered, according to Mrs.
Tuna.
q My husband was worried over the
withdrawal Of number of accounts
This forenoon and wished to arrange
she said. I'VE. had about $4,000 cash
in the bank. but he thought we ought |
to have $4,000 more.
EVERY depostor will be paid. He |
always saw to that. He was very
saving. His home is good enough, but |
he could have afforded much better |
one. His amuSementS were simple
trips to parks, long walks, visits to the |
less expensive entertainments, the
and the like"
A large crowd assembled in front |
of the bank as the news of the suicide |
spread throughout the neighbOrhoOd. |
All who came said Tuna was a much |
respected citizen, and expressed con-
fdemce none of his depOsitors would |
suffer loss.
The bank was established twelve |
years ago and is one of the largest |
private banks in the city.

The Parson Bird.

Among the feathered inhabitants of
New Zealand there is bird called the
parson bird, or tut. 1t is about the
size and shape of IL blackbird. but has
n pair of delicate white tufts ut its
throat and Is glossy dark green 9th
erwise. which looks black In the sun
shine. 1t can be taught to crow. to
speak. to whistle tunes. and. besides
these tricks. 1t has repertory which
is not often equaled by any other
feathered son.ster. At vespers 1t has
n note like the toll Of bell or the
clear, high note OF an organ. 1t can
mimic every bird in the bush to per-
lection. 1t will break of In the mid
die Of an exquisite melody and In.
dulge in strange melody Of sounds
which are impossible to describe. but If
you can imagine "the combination Of
n cough. a laugh. n sneeze, with the
smashing of II pane Of GLASS;" 1t will
be some approach to the idea.

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop 1t or go and help to
put out the fire? 1t is much the same
way with a cough. A cough is dam
ger signal as much as fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress 1t than
to stop fire bell when 1t Ia ringing,
but should cure the disease that caus-
es the coughing. This can nearly al
ways be done by taking Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Many have
used 1t with the most beneficial re-
suits. 1t is especially valuable for the
persistent cough that SO often follows
a bad cold or an attack Of the grip.
Mrs. Thomas Beeching, Andrews,
Ind, writes: During the winter my
husband takes cold easily and coughs
and coughs. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy Ia the best medicine for
breaking up these attacks and you
cannot get him to take any othef."

mo one will gainsay the value and
pleasure of outdoor exercise graduated
to suit the needs of every individual
throughout life." says the Journal Of
the American Medical Association. but
the species of OVERRIDING called for in
the intense competition Of the great
contests OF our schools and colleges
can no longer be defended by plati-
tudes regarding the alleged psychologist
value of its competitive features. The
time has come when statistics regard
ing latent athletic injuries must be

Forget Them

This is a wonderful world we are
living in, and one of the greatest gifts
we enjoy is the opportunity to help
make this world q little better.
In this world we find few whom
we do not like. Some others do not
like us. My plan is not to forgive
these two classes, hut just forget
them.
Success today dictates that man
must forget the things that anger
him. The time that you dwell on
some wrong done you by another Is
time lost and energy wasted. Re-
venge units you for responsibility.
Vengeance, the get-back idea, Is an
Indication OF Il very small man. The
big man forgets the little men who
try to bother him. 1t is said that the
American Indian never forgot. You
are a modern American and not OF
the primitive type.
To harbor malice, to try to injure
another man, to waste words with On
enemy, requires that you get your
mind in n condition that has never
brought about success, save In war.
Business today Is done with friends,
and not with enemies. You cannot
do business successfully while at war.
