 During a few minutes when his guard was absent, Ford hung him self from tho top bar of his cell door with rope made of strips of a sheet. Efforts by the prison surgeon to revive him failed.
 Before his stiicide Ford spent the day whiting letters of farewell to friends One of the letters, address ed to Warden Lawes asked him not to punish the guard for his suicide. The letter declared that he was framed" by Raymond Anderson, taxieab driver, who turned state'e evidence against him.
 When he had finished the letters he ate his supper. His guard, John Hornet, then took the dishes away and in the three minutes he wac away Ford swung himself from the door. In his letter to the warden he said he had carefully planned tc take advantage of these few un- guarded moments.
 Ford was arrested October IS three days after an early morning fire at Brooklyn had killed his fath er-in-law and former real estate partner, George Keim, two othel men, two women and a girl. H. slashed his wrists while he was be ing held in jail, but failed to kil himself.

Repentance Is Not Restoration

Raissa Pognovskaya Is dead! The
little Russian immigrant, who was
refused admittance to America and
ordered deported, took poison and
died She had hoped to be married
her fiancee awaited her coming.
lobe returned to Russia without even
seeing her loved one made her desire
to die But when he hurried to her
bedside, with the joyful news that the
authorities had relented, Raissa want
ed to live-she determined to live
she "knew she would live.' But she
is dead.
We dare not flirt with death-hOw-
ever strong our will. Ruin a rash
act will not restore conditions. II
there was ever case In which the
mind had a chance to stay the prog
ress Of disease and death, 1t was that
of Raissa. She knew she would
live" hoped and love inspired. The
whole Russian colony at Seattle and
the priests of the Russian church
prayed for her recovery. But she Is
dead.
Surely those who believe that the
mind can cure disease must pause
when considering this case. Our
minds and wills are feeble, fluttering
things in the presence Of serious sick
ness The laws Of Nature will not be
thwarted by our wishes nor our
whims. All the tears Of repentance
all the lamentations of dispair-all
the incentive of loye-cannot stay the
penalties for misguided action or will
full neglect.
And surely those who claim that
fear Is essential for the production OF
disease must also pause. Raissa had
no fear; she courted Death; she was
not actuated by fear when she died
her mind was hopeful and at pease
she was not in pain; she did moi
manifest disquietude but lapsed into
a quiet sleep-the coma Of death.
No, let us not deceive ourselves. II
