Personal comfort has not much to do with the sum- mer migration, unless it leads to an ex- treme northerly point, but whether the breezes blow hot or cold, there is certainly a balm in being able to date a letter from a fashionable resort and there to pass and repass one’s friends or enemies; iz does rot make a great deal of difference which.

The fuil tide of gaveties at either of these summer cities will not be reached fur a week or two yet, t who can be depended upon to ¢re greatest is as yet a matter of conjecture.

WILLIAM BERRY DEAD stir | Swallows Laudanum for the Purpose of Ending His Life. No Cause Known for the Rash Act— Supposed to Have Been Crazed by the Heat. William C. Berry committed su taking a big dose of laudanum afternoon at his hcme, No. 70 M. setts avenue northwest, withcut leaving his family the slightest intimation of the rea- son for the rash act His wife was almost frantic when lea’ what had happened. The husbat committed the deed in the bed room on the second floor while his wife and chi were on the lower floor, the former atten ing to her household duties and the latter playing about on the floor. The unfortunate man, who was thirty-six years old, came here from Charles county, Md., quite a while ago, his parents still residing near La Plata. For several months he has been in the employ of the American Wringer Company as collector, required him to be out in nt days. While it was not thought th were any serious results, but now his friends have an idea that he suffered from sunstroke, and that while he did not fall, or become sick in a manner to attract attention, they believe his mind was affected, and that the sad a ir may be traced to this course, He was a large man, and the heat was the more severe upon him. ave No Sign Berry was at work yesterday as usual, and returned home shortly after noon, as had been his custcm. At the side entrance to th? modest little home his wife and child greeted him as usual and all of them seem- ed as happy as they had ever be In- stead of appearing to be ill, the husband was in the best of spirits, aad laughed and chatted with his only child and exchanged pleasantries with nis wife. After spen n hour or more in this way, he went up- airs, saying he was goirg to take a nap. » had frequently done this before, so t there unusual in his going to d room at that hour. Thinking he was asleep, the wife had the child keep quiet in order that the husband and father might enjoy a rest before going out again in the hot sun. Between 4 and not nd going to the bed room she was shocked at finding his face almost as black as if he had been a She called him, but there came nd then she put her hand negro. he flesh was cold, and the ppened. Although sh> thought he was dead, Mrs. rry hastened to do all in her power to restore him to life. A messenger was dis patched to Easterday’s drug store, ai ral telephone messages were sent out for physicians. Verdict of the Physicians, ‘There was some delay in getting a dcc- tor to the house, so friends say. Dr. Webb was first to reach the borge, but he found that the man had been dead for possibly two hours. Dr. Tarkington arrived soon afterward, and he agreed with Dr. Webb #s to the time the death had occurred. If Berry had thought of suicide before he went upstairs he did not betray any sigu of it, and the fact that the poison he used was already in the house leads to the belief that his act was the result of a sudden impulse. He swallowed a very jarge dose of the drug, the doctors say, and the empty bottle was found in the room near his bed. When the physicians had concluded their examination Coroner Hammett was summoned. He visited the nouse about 6 o’vlock and interviewed the woman wno had been made a widow by the sad occurrence. She related to the coroner her nusband’s actions during the day, and said she could assign no cause for his committing suicide. Coroner Gives Certificate. The coroner concluded that, as there was no doubt about the manner of death, he would not hold an inquest. A certificate of death from a dose of laudanum, self- administered, was given. The sad news was conveyed to the par- ents of the dead man at La Plata and they will attend his tuneral. a Took Hix Trunk on His Wheel. From ths Philadelphia Record. Evidently determined to lessen his ex- penses for a trip to the shore, an ingent- ous wheelman pedaled down Walnut street early yesterday morning on a tandem, the rear seat of which contained an ordinary traveling trunk supported by means of a board fastened to the seat. Comments and smiles were numerous as the strange-look- ing load went along, but the cycler wore a satisfied expression, which showed that he was proud of his ingeruity. He got along swimmingly until he reached 2d street. In the midst of a gathering of pro- duce teams the daring rider spied about ten inches of an opening. Giving an extra spurt he attempted to pass through, evi- dently forgetting he had the trunk in the rear, There was a sudden jolt, a crackling nolse, colored language and all was over. By a miracle the cycler was not hurt, but was merely thrown among a lot of spiin- ters which had formerly teen a trunk. in a dazed manner he collected a lot of shirts, collars, outing suits and several other es- sentials to a sporty time, and, strapping them together, tied them on the seat again and started for home. ++ —____ What Could She Dot From the New York Times. There were three morning glories on the teacher’s desk, a pink, white and a purple one, tied together with a pretty little cot- ton ribbon of the kind used to fasten new handkerchiefs together. The flowers were very fresh and pretty, and the teacher smiled as she looked from ther to little Leon, who stood near the desk. “Where did you get them, Leon?” she asked, for she knew that — — eas , as a spear of grass x ns house. “I climbed over a fence and stole them for you, Miss Blank,” said Leon eagerly. .“‘And when I had picked them I knocked on the window to the servant girl and she gave me the ribbon to tie them with.” And what was Miss Blank to say?
