Franciseas Commits Suicide in the Hotel dohnson. Two weeks ago a nicely-dressed man about thirty-five years old engaged board at the Hotel Johnaon, corner of 13th and E streets, and registered as J. T. Franciscus and gave Philadelphia as his place of residence. He was an applicant for office, and was backed by some of Pennsylvania's influential citizeus. ‘The guest seemed tohave money while in the hotel, although he was not aman todo any boasting. He was ® quiet, easy-going man, and searcely had a word to say to any one. Night after night he went to his room and re- tired at an¢early hour. Friday night he re- turned to the hotel enrly as uanal and about 10 o'clock he went to his room, making the re- mark: “I don't feel very well.” Before leav- ing the hotel office, however, he told the cicrk to’ make ont his bill,’ as he desired to settic in the morning. The bill wes made out, but when morning came no one appeared to settle it. but no attention was paid to that. Decsuse the clerk had no doubt whatever about its being paid.

Some Swindler Collecting Money in the Boy’ Behalf. + Getting money under false pretenses is bad enough at any time, but it is worse than bad when it is taking advantage of a poor woman lying in in the hospital. Within the past week aman about thirty years old has been intoa number of the leading business places along the avenue asking subscriptions for the boy Frank Godden, the son of Mrs. Farrell, who was so dreadfully cut by ber drunken husband a couple of weeks ago. ‘The man, who is described as rather slight in build, with dark hair and mus- tache, and plainly dressed, asked for help for the’boy and told a glib story about his relation to him. In several cases money was given. Later on the man returned toseveral of the same stores and said that the boy had died as the re- sult of his injuries and asked for subscriptions to help pay the funeral expenses. This would all be very nice and charitable were it not for the fact that the boy is not only alive, but has recovered from the injaries and the fright that he received ia his encounter with his s father. He has not received acent from man who has been busily collecting for him, #0 he told a Stax reporter this afternoon. Frank Godson haa been given « position that brings i mu. All contributions for relief of Mrs. Farreli, whose distressing cir- cumstances have been described in THz Bran, should be sont to Mr. Francis Higgs, at Rigas ik, or to Dz.
